Ubuntu 16.04 dropping the AMD Catalyst/fglrx driver
10 Mar 2016 at 8:56 pm UTC

Quoting: KimyrielleBoth AMD but also NVidia have to get their act together eventually and release something that installs with one click, you know...like in Windows.
You mean like you can with the AMD driver now :dizzy:

Had an AMD card since the 5870 days, I either go to the repo and install from there or go to AMD site , double click, enter root pass then install.
Ok I admit the 4xx kernel bugged on the 15.11s but was fixed with the 15.12's iirc. Mageia don't tend to jump straight onto the latest kernel though.

Know idea if you still have to kill X server for the nv driver to install.

Nvidia release another new Vulkan beta driver with Linux support
4 Mar 2016 at 8:45 pm UTC

I think SLI/Xfire is down to the devs to implement. The drivers play a much smaller roll with Vulkan/DX12 as the drivers are a "thin" layer between app and hardware .

I may be totally wrong though....

NeonXSZ glides out of Early Access, a 6 Degrees of Freedom shooter for SteamOS & Linux

Just bought this, I quite like it though it does take a bit of learning I guess. Only problem/Gripe is the font is small at 1440p, makes reading the menus a bit troublesome.

It's a mishmash of descent and forsaken to me. (Was a big Forsaken fan back in the day)

Nvidia release Linux beta driver with Vulkan
16 Feb 2016 at 8:23 pm UTC

I was under the impression that initially the vulkan driver from AMD was going to be under the Catalyst(fglrx) driver.

AMDGPU don't support below the 300 series yet that I know of. :(

Currant most played title?

Personally have some silly hours on boarderlands 2 :D

Good review , still on the fence whether to grab this Turned based aint really my thing. Tried so hard to get into civ beyond earth

Croteam confirm The Talos Principle will be their first Vulkan title

Interesting times ahead for sure!

I just hope it's not a jam in type port as vulkan will supposedly require devs to be a lot more through with it been a low level api .

Also hope they've tested AMD gpu's too :whistle:
