NVIDIA have released the 410.57 driver as well as a 396.54.06 Vulkan beta driver to help DXVK

Quoting: tuubiThere's also the "Proprietary Development GPU Drivers" PPA [External Link] by the same team that currently still has 396.54.05, but should update to .06 soon.
I ran the files in terminal and in software update its still showing 390 and 396 alone
Should i purge and reinstall ?
They only have a package per driver series, so nvidia-driver-396 is the right (meta)package to install. Current version in that PPA is 396.54.05.

Quoting: massatt212how do i install NVIDIA 396.54.06 on Ubuntu or should i go with NVIDIA 410.57 (Im not sure is 410.57 have the beta updates of 396.54.06)
Since you're probably using the graphics-drivers PPA, just wait until the new driver is put into there. It should then be available as a separate option in the Driver Manager, or of course you can install it via the command line.

Looks like a decent puzzle game at a low price. Wake me up when it's properly finished.

Why? Seemed to work just fine when I last tried it. If it performs better with DXVK for you, does it do so on all supported hardware out of the box? I doubt it's even worth the QA.
That's why.

Results with DXVK is even better. That is from 2016.
The Linux port was updated for better performance after that video was made, as confirmed by the comments. I don't doubt that it might still perform better with Wine/DXVK, but that doesn't mean ditching their native port for a Wine wrapper and redoing the QA would be worth it for Feral. I might agree with you if their port was horribly bad, but it just isn't.

Adventure game 'The Darkside Detective: Season 2' is on Kickstarter

I have no doubt the Kickstarter will succeed based on how much people enjoyed Season 1.

...you can grab it from Humble Store which includes both a GOG and Steam key.
Are you sure it's a GOG key and not a DRM-free download directly from Humble? That's how it usually works. I don't see a mention of GOG anywhere.

Quoting: rustybroomhandleI'm amazed he has the energy to still care about Linux porting since he's pretty much entirely a Mac user, unless I am mistaken. Matters not though - we still getting ports. :)
According to what I gleaned from a quick look at his recent tweets and other output, he still uses Linux on his workstation. Ubuntu or a derivative even.
