yeah, you'll want to remove that Yeah, waht I meant is how should I go about running things on the dGPU. | 23:24:41 |
| srestegosaurio (on tchncs.de) | Isn't there any magic ENVVAR/command? | 23:25:14 |

Yeah, waht I meant is how should I go about running things on the dGPU. If it works like amdgpu then yea games will just automatically use it by default because they'll ask the driver for the biggest GPU. And if you want to force one you set DRM_PRIME or whatever | 23:25:38 |
 olivia | DRI_PRIME is what people usually use | 23:25:48 |

| srestegosaurio (on tchncs.de) | I guess I have to try it then. Would need to wait until tomorrow but sounds good. | 23:26:53 |
| srestegosaurio (on tchncs.de) | The amount of headaches I had with my laptop graphics cannot be expressed with words. | 23:27:24 |
| srestegosaurio (on tchncs.de) | Specifically inconsistency. When things start and stop working for no apparent reason, etc… | 23:28:14 |
| olivia | if you don't want to wait for 25.1.1, you could do something like environment.variables.MESA_LOADER_DRIVER_OVERRIDE = "zink"; to get zink-by-default | 23:31:38 |

 woobilicious | Anyone know what I'm missing causing videos in Windows games to not play? | 04:01:28 |
| woobilicious | Perhaps it can't find the files lol?

| woobilicious | apparently the fix might be in Proton-GE 10.1 | 04:08:49 |
| woobilicious | Dead Island 2 & Happy Game are currently free on Epic Store if anyone wants them. | 04:34:06 |

heroic has a bug where umu-launcher doesnt get initialized properly on a newly installed game unless you go into the game's settings in heroic and toggle "Disable umu" on then off. Make sure you do this.

 aidalgol | That's fixed in the latest version which has a PR waiting to be merged (just as of today). | 21:07:12 |

 Charles | often, via steam, when i launch warframe, close warframe, and then launch warframe again, on each subsequent launch steam will randomly do one or more of the following things:
- try to shut down entirely
- try to switch accounts (no other accounts have signed on this machine before)
- give me a prompt to uninstall something
- close its main window and refuse to ever open it again until i shut it down via the system tray icon
and so my question is, wtf?
| 00:48:54 |
| olivia | that's a good question | 01:36:02 |
| Charles | just found https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/11672 and other duplicates of it so it's not just me, that's nice | 02:33:36 |
| Charles | https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/11449#issuecomment-2553318591 baffling; this seems to fix it for me too | 02:37:03 |
| olivia | I'm getting it too now lol | 05:39:40 |
| olivia | amazing failure state | 05:39:44 |
| Charles | fantastic | 05:41:33 |
