i'm having some very weird issues with gamescope on hyprland w/ nvidia, and have searched for hours for solutions but can't find any and don't know where to open an issue, if someone would be willing to help me here. here are my issues:

  • no window opens when opening through steam launch options
  • window opens when launching from command line, but then more weirdness occurs
  • set resolution and fullscreen, steam app inside of gamescope looks good, but when the game opens, the black bars hiding the rest of my screen are replaced with a blur and my cursor is offset
  • expected black bars only reappear when using gamescope to scale game, but i want to run at native resolution

all of this is just for me to be able to have my games run at a specific resolution on a specific part of my screen with no distractions, so gamescope seems like the way to go but if there's another solution, i'd love to escape this hell

@k900:0upti.meK900gamescope, hyprland AND nvidia05:38:08
@k900:0upti.meK900That's a combo05:38:12
@aidalgol:matrix.orgaidalgolI've had success with gamescope on nvidia, but with Plasma Wayland.06:09:15
@aidalgol:matrix.orgaidalgolhyprland is wl-roots based and Plasma is not, correct?06:09:26
@k900:0upti.meK900Hyprland is now on their own custom thing06:10:14
@k900:0upti.meK900 Which is extremely bad 06:10:18

How so? It's working mighty fine for me and has so practically since Hyprland switched to it
07:07:39
@atemu12:matrix.orgAtemuSome things don't work quite yet such as DRM-leasing07:07:50
@atemu12:matrix.orgAtemuBut such is Wayland...07:07:56
@k900:0upti.meK900I've looked at the code07:09:03
@k900:0upti.meK900It was not good07:09:06
@atemu12:matrix.orgAtemuOh I believe you on that10:39:13
@atemu12:matrix.orgAtemuBut it works well10:39:16
@atemu12:matrix.orgAtemuThe only thing that may rival it in terms of features and just generally working (which is quite a standard for Wayland still) is KDE and that has, uh, other issues10:40:31

i'm running into amdgpu crashes when trying to play half-life: alyx :/
the error message looks a lot like it's this: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/amd/-/issues/1974
It's not NixOS specific, also tried this on Arch, same result.
Has anyone here experienced this before and maybe found a workaround, or maybe just an idea?

amdgpu 0000:03:00.0: amdgpu: ring gfx_0.0.0 timeout, signaled seq=2630653, emitted seq=2630655

@k900:0upti.meK900That's just a GPU crash12:51:07
@k900:0upti.meK900Probably the game is doing something wrong12:51:22
@k900:0upti.meK900Kernel 6.12 should improve crash recovery a lot12:51:30
@k900:0upti.meK900But if the GPU crashes, well, that's usually it for the game12:51:38
@marie:marie.cologneMariei tried both native and proton half life: alyx, and it happens at the exact same stage in the game12:54:12
@k900:0upti.meK900Could be a specific shader12:54:52
@marie:marie.cologneMarieI would prefer to not have to install windows to play this game, but looks like I have to :/12:55:08
@k900:0upti.meK900You could try Mesa from git12:55:55
@k900:0upti.meK900Or wait for 24.2.3 to make it out of staging-next12:56:04
