matthewcroughan @ 39c3 (DECT 94667 or 97340 or 67192) | you get a black screen before that | 21:05:25 |
Makuru 📞(WAAF / 4850) | Do you have multiple GPUs? Well that shouldnt be the issue, tho. | 21:10:13 |
Makuru 📞(WAAF / 4850) | Maybe wayland? | 21:10:17 |
| ian joined the room. | 21:14:10 |
matthewcroughan @ 39c3 (DECT 94667 or 97340 or 67192) | Hmm I didn't think so, does the ryzen 5600 have a built in gpu? | 21:16:20 |
Makuru 📞(WAAF / 4850) | Maybe, is it the 5600g ? | 21:18:06 |
matthewcroughan @ 39c3 (DECT 94667 or 97340 or 67192) | ouch.. that would suck, I will have to check next time I'm with the machine | 21:18:24 |
matthewcroughan @ 39c3 (DECT 94667 or 97340 or 67192) | didn't suspect it since absolutely every other piece of software worked as expected | 21:18:43 |
matthewcroughan @ 39c3 (DECT 94667 or 97340 or 67192) | like monado/wivrn | 21:18:47 |
matthewcroughan @ 39c3 (DECT 94667 or 97340 or 67192) | and perfectly, may I add | 21:18:53 |
Makuru 📞(WAAF / 4850) | The fix is: DRI_PRIME=1 or 0 | 21:19:05 |
matthewcroughan @ 39c3 (DECT 94667 or 97340 or 67192) | what lib reads that var? | 21:21:23 |
Makuru 📞(WAAF / 4850) | It tells the kernel, i think to use GPU 0 or 1. | 21:23:24 |
matthewcroughan @ 39c3 (DECT 94667 or 97340 or 67192) | The kernel? | 21:23:34 |
matthewcroughan @ 39c3 (DECT 94667 or 97340 or 67192) | Like, Linux? | 21:23:37 |
matthewcroughan @ 39c3 (DECT 94667 or 97340 or 67192) | I would have thought only the processes would care about this var | 21:23:48 |
Makuru 📞(WAAF / 4850) | Yeah, I dont know, it just magic for me. | 21:24:23 |
matthewcroughan @ 39c3 (DECT 94667 or 97340 or 67192) | yeah fair, that's how most of that is when interacting with steam | 21:24:39 |
matthewcroughan @ 39c3 (DECT 94667 or 97340 or 67192) | * yeah fair, that's how most of that is when interacting with steam and graphics libs | 21:24:48 |
| ian left the room. | 21:26:40 |
olivia | mesa reads DRI_PRIME, not the kernel | 22:56:33 |

matthewcroughan @ 39c3 (DECT 94667 or 97340 or 67192) | What annoys me is the lack of name spacing on magic vars | 13:06:38 |
matthewcroughan @ 39c3 (DECT 94667 or 97340 or 67192) | 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 |
