anyone else have nvidia build failures when upgrading to 25.05 ? I'm getting errors but I'm using both the beta drivers and a custom kernel so idk. | 09:20:41 |

 K900 | Probably last Mesa bump for 25.05: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/411793 | 16:42:57 |

| @normalcea:matrix.org | The performance of NVK isn't at the level of the proprietary driver for very demanding tasks. | 21:32:30 |
| @normalcea:matrix.org | At least when I tested Hitman: WOA on my 1650 card. | 21:33:15 |
| @normalcea:matrix.org | * At least when I tested Hitman: WOA on my 1650 super card. | 21:35:18 |
| K900 | 1650 Super is probably the worst case for NVK | 21:37:18 |
| K900 | It's the lowest end thing they support | 21:37:23 |
 olivia | yeah, at least last time I was looking nvk is faster on some cpu-bound tasks, but generally slower on gpu-bound | 21:49:25 |
| olivia | (and much slower on ~everything pre-turing because no reclocking) | 21:49:41 |
| K900 | I think it's also faster on newer hardware because more of it is reverse engineered by now? | 21:51:49 |
| olivia | hmm, possible I don't know specifics. Everything newer than turing is all very similar in the shader ISA at least | 22:27:47 |

| Nila The Dragon | Anyone have the issue with running gamescope from within steam on gnome? Works fine if I start steam through gamescope but same game will fail to launch if I put gamescope in its launch params... | 14:32:07 |
| K900 | What's in the logs? | 14:41:13 |
| Nila The Dragon | In reply to @k900:0upti.me
What's in the logs? With the current configuration (programs.gamescope.enable = true) and launch options (gamescope --backend sdl -h 720 -H 1080 -f %command%) the relevant game launch logs are https://pastebin.com/wWLGAmtS | 15:01:24 |
| K900 | That just looks like the game itself is crashing | 15:07:27 |
| K900 | What nixos version are you on? | 15:07:27 |
| Nila The Dragon | NixOS 25.11 (Xantusia) x86_64 (Unstable) | 15:08:00 |
| Nila The Dragon | The game will launch fine without gamescope + it will launch if I launch the entire steam client through gamescope as well | 15:08:15 |
| K900 | Try removing --backend sdl | 15:08:19 |
| K900 | Actually | 15:08:21 |
