Quoting: Avehicle7887If CDPR is still intent on releasing Cyberpunk for Stadia, Feral doesn't have to do anything as the game will already be running on Linux. All the devs would have to do is make the game available off Stadia.Stadia doesn't use SDL, so it would need some moddleware to take inputs and display on Linux. Someone would have to wire SDL up.

Windows 7 is going out of support at the end of January, so that's an odd OS to rise in popularity... I've converted the second grandma to Kubuntu this Gravmass

Quoting: ShmerlThey're trying to give their gaming laptops more power by making it use both the integrated and dedicated GPU, at the same time if I understand. They call it "Smart Shift" and it's the part I'm curious if Mesa can support it. Prime within Mesa obviously works.Quoting: PikoloAnd they have their own Optimus-like approach, which Mesa might hopefully be able to supportAre they using 2 GPUs there? Why would they need something Optimus-like? And if anything, they are supporting PRIME, so you won't need anything special to use it in multi-GPU setup.

The big news from this CES are the Radeon Mobile GPUs: 5600M and 5700M - AMD GPUs are comming back into midrange gaming laptops! And they have their own Optimus-like approach, which Mesa might hopefully be able to support

Quoting: Hal_KadoYou are correct about the laptop screen. However, most Optimus laptops have the HDMI output wired to the Nvidia GPU. If you start the system with the Nvidia GPU in Prime offload mode, you can't use the HDMI port. I think connecting your laptop via HDMI is far from a niche case... And having to reboot to use it is annoying.Quoting: ShmerlFrom there it sounds like it can render on Nvidia, and display through the integrated. But I suppose then not the other way around?I think this is accurate. However a lot of laptops have their outputs hardwired to the integrated graphics so this might not come up for most people. And in the event you are using the dedicated card, it must be powered on so there would be little to no power savings by offloading work back to the iGPU. I may be missing something but I can't think of any situations one would want to do this, and if there is it would be a pretty niche use case....

This is google. They're one of the bigger proponents of SCRUM, and that development methodology calls for starting with a minimum viable product and working with stakeholders(gamers) to expand it. If they stick to a two year plan with it, they can definitely pull it off, but this really should have been called a preview
Microsoft confirm their new Chromium-powered Edge browser is coming to Linux

This has nothing to do with desktop users - MS want Edge to be used on CI servers running Selenium or Puppeteer, improving compatibility with future websites. Windows CI is a lot rarer than Linux CI and so few people tested Edge compatibility continuously - if there was attention paid, it was often late in development, and the bugs might have been overlooked. Firefox support in this area is better than edges, but it's not great either - Google develops new browser automation frameworks with a Chrome first approach and it shows.
