Some thoughts on switching from Ubuntu to Antergos for Linux gaming

Have they fixed the bug on 10xx series cards yet? tried the last two iso's. (Oss driver and pascal not good, Shocker!)

Was going to give Ant a go but due to the mouse bug unable to install. (Yes, I know I could text install. IT'S 2017 not 1991 )

Always used rpm based distro's tbh, never liked *buntu. Having trying Antergos on my daughters(AMD card) it is nice, No hunting for packages neither. Only down side to Mageia is packages available. No fault of the Mageia team, just lack of people. Chicken/egg think I guess.

Their KDE version seems rather stable, A lot of other distros don't seem to do KDE well for some unknown reason thus why I've stuck with Mandrake/Mandriva/Mageia over the years.

OpenGL 4.3 now available in Mesa for nouveau (NVIDIA) for Maxwell and above

Quoting: liamdawe
Quoting: pete910Interesting to see pascal on this :huh:
As I've explained on reddit though, having the OpenGL feature set is one thing, having re-clocking (for performance) and other card features are entirely different things.

Kinda what I was getting at, I mean how much testing could be done on Maxwell/Pascal GPU's

There effectively useless on the oss driver for the most part.
