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 |
| niklaskorz | ah rip, they disabled it for 6.19 an the fixed version will land with 7.0 | 09:59:30 |

| niklaskorz | well not compression, but large page support | 10:00:14 |

I'm mostly getting my news from people randomly linking PRs on #dri-devel I don't follow news at all, I mostly hear about anything couple months later while searching the web for something completely else | 10:01:22 |
| niklaskorz | .has_compression = ws_dev->nouveau_version >= 0x01000402 &&
ws_dev->info.cls_eng3d >= TURING_A,
0x01000402 being the driver version shipping in Linux 7.0
