@niklaskorz:matrix.orgniklaskorzright, depending your GPU09:54:59
@niklaskorz:matrix.orgniklaskorzwhich one do you have?09:55:04
@crony:cronyakatsuki.xyzCrony 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:cronyakatsuki.xyzCrony Akatsuki
In reply to @niklaskorz:matrix.org
which one do you have?
5060 ti
09:55:13
@niklaskorz:matrix.orgniklaskorz40xx and 50xx auto-enable GSP on nouveau09:55:19
@crony:cronyakatsuki.xyzCrony AkatsukiAh, that nice last time I tried nvk that wasn't the default09:55:42
@niklaskorz:matrix.orgniklaskorzpossible 😅 they make immense jumps in progress every year09:55:56
@crony:cronyakatsuki.xyzCrony AkatsukiSo i just enable graphics and don't set nvidia xserver nvidia09:56:16
@magic_rb:matrix.redalder.orgmagic_rbYeah it wasnt till recently ish09:56:21
@crony:cronyakatsuki.xyzCrony Akatsuki And don't enable nvidia driver also right? 09:56:33
@magic_rb:matrix.redalder.orgmagic_rbProvided you have the firmware available (which you do) then it should just work09:56:43
@crony:cronyakatsuki.xyzCrony AkatsukiBecause currently I ise wayland and don't have xorg module set to nvidia09:56:49
@magic_rb:matrix.redalder.orgmagic_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

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:matrix.redalder.orgmagic_rb * 09:57:29
@niklaskorz:matrix.orgniklaskorznote that you won't get hardware accelerated video decoding in nouveau and that performance is still only like 30% of the proprietary drivers09:57:30
@niklaskorz:matrix.orgniklaskorzbut besides that it's amazingly stable09:57:34
@magic_rb:matrix.redalder.orgmagic_rb50% ish in some cases09:57:42
@k900:0upti.meK90026.0 should improve NVK perf a whole lot09:57:49
@k900:0upti.meK900AFAIK09:57:51
@magic_rb:matrix.redalder.orgmagic_rbDid they land texture compression finally?09:58:04
@k900:0upti.meK900Honestly not entirely sure09:58:19

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:matrix.orgniklaskorzyea, that's why I'm very excited to give 26 a try :D09:58:36
@k900:0upti.meK900I don't have any Nvidia hardware in active use09:58:38
@niklaskorz:matrix.orgniklaskorzbut requires Linux 6.1909:58:40
@k900:0upti.meK900So I am not really tracking NVK changes much09:58:52
@k900:0upti.meK900We do have 6.1909:59:18
@k900:0upti.meK900Also09:59:18
@magic_rb:matrix.redalder.orgmagic_rbI stopped following the new developments, life got too busy, and i also just left discord, the queerdesktop discord was my main avenue for news09:59:20
