niklaskorz | right, depending your GPU | 09:54:59 |
niklaskorz | which one do you have? | 09:55:04 |
Crony Akatsuki | * Don't you need to enable gsp loading and some other stuff so that nvk can properly change speed on your gpu,? | 09:55:06 |
Crony Akatsuki | In reply to @niklaskorz:matrix.org which one do you have? 5060 ti | 09:55:13 |
niklaskorz | 40xx and 50xx auto-enable GSP on nouveau | 09:55:19 |
Crony Akatsuki | Ah, that nice last time I tried nvk that wasn't the default | 09:55:42 |
niklaskorz | possible 😅 they make immense jumps in progress every year | 09:55:56 |
Crony Akatsuki | So i just enable graphics and don't set nvidia xserver nvidia | 09:56:16 |
magic_rb | Yeah it wasnt till recently ish | 09:56:21 |
Crony Akatsuki | And don't enable nvidia driver also right? | 09:56:33 |
magic_rb | Provided you have the firmware available (which you do) then it should just work | 09:56:43 |
Crony Akatsuki | Because currently I ise wayland and don't have xorg module set to nvidia | 09:56:49 |
magic_rb | (Side not, there has been discussion about unifying the two kernel space drivers so that you could run both nvidia and nouveau but it didnt materialize) | 09:57:20 |
Crony Akatsuki | In reply to @magic_rb:matrix.redalder.org Yeah it wasnt till recently ish I tried back in 10th month of last year last time, couldn't start couple games back then | 09:57:20 |
magic_rb | * | 09:57:29 |
niklaskorz | note that you won't get hardware accelerated video decoding in nouveau and that performance is still only like 30% of the proprietary drivers | 09:57:30 |
niklaskorz | but besides that it's amazingly stable | 09:57:34 |
magic_rb | 50% ish in some cases | 09:57:42 |
K900 | 26.0 should improve NVK perf a whole lot | 09:57:49 |
K900 | AFAIK | 09:57:51 |
magic_rb | Did they land texture compression finally? | 09:58:04 |
K900 | Honestly not entirely sure | 09:58:19 |
Crony Akatsuki | In reply to @niklaskorz:matrix.org note that you won't get hardware accelerated video decoding in nouveau and that performance is still only like 30% of the proprietary drivers I don't really do hardware accelerated playback on my pc either way, I mostly just play games and manage mf fleet of servers using nixos | 09:58:26 |
niklaskorz | yea, that's why I'm very excited to give 26 a try :D | 09:58:36 |
K900 | I don't have any Nvidia hardware in active use | 09:58:38 |
niklaskorz | but requires Linux 6.19 | 09:58:40 |
K900 | So I am not really tracking NVK changes much | 09:58:52 |
K900 | We do have 6.19 | 09:59:18 |
K900 | Also | 09:59:18 |
magic_rb | I stopped following the new developments, life got too busy, and i also just left discord, the queerdesktop discord was my main avenue for news | 09:59:20 |
