Tomb Raider released for Linux, thoughts & port report included, the first Linux game to use TressFX
30 Apr 2016 at 11:54 pm UTC

Benchmark on Ubuntu 14.04 64BIT. "NORMAL" preset. Vsync ON @intel i5 4690K GIGABYTE GTX750ti Low profile. 352.63 propietary driver


In game I don't have that framerate all the time, but it NEVER goes below the solid 30FPS.

Now, the Benchmark on Ubuntu 14.04 64BIT. "HIGH" preset. Vsync ON @intel i5 4690K GIGABYTE GTX750ti Low profile. 352.63 propietary driver



On ULTRA is UMPLAYABLE with this GPU...But on Normal or even High details, this card is a IDEAL for a compact Steam Machine.

Quoting: mrdeathjrRuns very good

However why dont apply some OC your 4690K????, any frecuency between 4.2Ghz and 4.5Ghz must be offer fps boost in most native games

^_^
Because a few things:
This was just an experiment. The real graphics card of this PC is a Gigabyte GTX 750ti Low profile. The mobo is a Gigabyte H97N-WIFI.
I removed the mobo from the HTPC case just for this.
This case can not allow the temps of an overclocked i5 4690K with the stock cooler (This is the PC I assembled for my mother).

The PSU of this machine is Seasonic SS 350-SFE and I don't want to overload it paired with the GTX 960 of the experiment and an overclocked i5..

I'm gonna do the benchmark again, this time with the GTX 750ti Low profile.

There's only one open source driver in that screenshot of yours, and that's the nouveau entry at the top. All of those binary drivers in your list are Nvidia's proprietary (or as you say, privative) drivers. I don't speak the language, but if "código abierto" after an entry means open source, that's just a glitch of some sort with the driver manager or the ppa. You might want to file a bug. Anyway, install the 364.19 and you're good to go.
In fact, I'm using the 352.63 propietary driver and the game works...

Quoting: t3gIf you are on Ubuntu 14.04+, getting the Nvidia 364 series is easy: https://launchpad.net/~graphics-drivers/+archive/ubuntu/ppa [External Link]
I have that PPA, and the privative version of the 364 series is not in my list, only the open source version.

Nvidia 364.19 stable driver released, featuring Vulkan, Wayland & Mir support

I downloaded the 364.19 driver for Ubuntu 14.04.3... But they are the Open version, and Tomb Raider requires the privative version... Where is the privative version or this driver for Ubuntu 14.04 LTS?
