Quoting: slaapliedjeThat's what I wanted to recommend as well. If you need to, you can even use the Nvidia driver from experimental (fear though not!). The driver seems to be so separated from the rest, this never gave me headaches either. But backports should be optimal.Quoting: sigmichMain reason I don't use Debian a while are outdated Nvidia drivers because I need stable branch for some specific software. Could DUR be used also for installing graphic drivers?Backports has the latest stable drivers.

Quoting: denyasisSince I'm not buying any games this year, I decided to finish the games I own. I have a bad habit of not finishing games.I avoid starting all those big RPGs at the moment due to lack of time. Is it still fun? I think I would forget all the rules, tactics, story, ...
So I'm still playing Wasteland 2. Still enjoying it. I don't get a ton of play time, so I think I'll finish it by August.

Finally played through Rise of the Tomb Raider. It's fun! (I'm leaving out all collecting stuff though.)

Quoting: AnorelsanOn the steam forums someone says that maybe is for an unsuported cpu. It seems strange to me, I have a Ryzen 1800X, a little old but that old? I will dig a little more. I want to play it, enjoyed the first and second, but possibly will be in the future when I change my pc.I answered over there (as Zyro). I think playing around with kernel (downgrade?) or mesa version (upgrade?) should be able to solve it.

Quoting: AnorelsanHello I just bought this game and have an instant crash on startup, not even showing anything. I know that my system is old (ryzen 1800x, r290, 32GB RAM), but do you know if it runs on mesa 20 or i must update to mesa 21 to run it? It works under wayland?Did you try from terminal? I was shown a library missing, some libibus or something.
ed: digging into steam forums seems that it can run under mesa 20 (with the memory leak) and wayland, but no luck. Maybe will be my first refund. :(

Quoting: crabelThe full game Backbone is mostly the prologue. The story afterwards is a) short and b) linear. And incomplete.Too bad, it looked promising!

Quoting: CatKillerThe PPUs definitely existed. I doubt that many got sold, because the business case for them was rubbish, but you could get pre-built gaming machines with them in. The technology was also in a bunch of console games before Nvidia bought Ageia.I googled and found some... on Geocities. (So that's the age we're talking about. :D )

Quoting: whizseAdventure gamers! Don't miss Season of the Warlock [External Link]. Proton demo only, but the full game should (hopefully) be native.I've seen a test version of the demo, and it's working well on Linux, so be optimistic!

Quoting: CatKillerHmm. My little one loves machines and loves puzzles. Showing a five year old how to pick locks couldn't possibly have negative future consequences, right?What could possibly go wrong?!? :heart:
