 matthewcroughan | Hmm I didn't think so, does the ryzen 5600 have a built in gpu? | 21:16:20 |
 Makuru | Maybe, is it the 5600g ? | 21:18:06 |
| matthewcroughan | ouch.. that would suck, I will have to check next time I'm with the machine | 21:18:24 |
| matthewcroughan | didn't suspect it since absolutely every other piece of software worked as expected | 21:18:43 |
| matthewcroughan | like monado/wivrn | 21:18:47 |
| matthewcroughan | and perfectly, may I add | 21:18:53 |
| Makuru | The fix is: DRI_PRIME=1 or 0 | 21:19:05 |
| matthewcroughan | what lib reads that var? | 21:21:23 |
| Makuru | It tells the kernel, i think to use GPU 0 or 1. | 21:23:24 |
| matthewcroughan | The kernel? | 21:23:34 |
| matthewcroughan | Like, Linux? | 21:23:37 |
| matthewcroughan | I would have thought only the processes would care about this var | 21:23:48 |
| Makuru | Yeah, I dont know, it just magic for me. | 21:24:23 |
| matthewcroughan | yeah fair, that's how most of that is when interacting with steam | 21:24:39 |
| matthewcroughan | * yeah fair, that's how most of that is when interacting with steam and graphics libs | 21:24:48 |

 olivia | mesa reads DRI_PRIME, not the kernel | 22:56:33 |

| matthewcroughan | What annoys me is the lack of name spacing on magic vars | 13:06:38 |
| matthewcroughan | like why is it not MESA_DRI_PRIME | 13:06:43 |
 K900 | DRI is Direct Rendering Infrastructure | 13:08:30 |
| K900 | DRI is the prefidx | 13:08:32 |
| K900 | DRI is the prefix | 13:08:33 |
| K900 | Because it's not used by just Mesa, at least on X | 13:08:39 |

 eyJhb | Redacted or Malformed Event | 19:24:16 |
| eyJhb | Is there anything with Steam + Nvidia + Plasma + Wayland that would result in this error after like.. 5 minutes? | 19:24:17 |

| K900 | They just shipped an update a few hours ago | 19:26:55 |
