NVIDIA puts out a new release of their open source NVAPI interface

Those released header files are just a bunch of source code files useful for developers. They can be used to create a library that is compatible with NVIDIAs own implementation but somebody has to develop it first.
There is the DXVK-NVAPI project on GitHub that uses those interfaces to create a library which is supposed to be used with Wine/Proton like DXVK and friends.

But anyway, users and workflows are different and I think it would be to much to fit all use cases into a single Desktop. So I'm happy to hear that MATE works nicely for you!

Quoting: Purple Library GuyThis is perfectly OK of course. Just saying that Gnome might take some investment to get its intention.Quoting: jens( _the_ tip for having a good Gnome experience, learn the keyboard shortcut’s)That sounds very plausible. But I don't wanna learn keyboard shortcuts to be able to use my DE. I'm fine with the WIMP style interface, thanks.

I love my Gnome Desktop, but I’m also loving my iPhone experience, so I guess this and also the statement of the article fits perfectly :grin:

Sad how this turned out, I think in the end nobody will gain anything by this move.
Edit: Sry, this link had already been posted here.

VKD3D-Proton v2.5 is out for Direct3D 12 on top of Vulkan, improving DirectX Raytracing

Quoting: Comandante ÑoñardoI downloaded the file NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-470.74.run, set it as executable and extracted all the files..Cool :smile:
After copying the file _nvngx.dll the "/usr/lib/nvidia/wine" folder with read only permission, now I have DLSS available.
Thanks for the clue :smile:

Quoting: Comandante Ñoñardook, then it should actually just work by using `PROTON_ENABLE_NVAPI=1` and disabling the DXVK nvapi hack for that title. May be you are running into https://old.reddit.com/r/linux_gaming/comments/pv37zt/is_dlss_with_proton_already_working/ [External Link] where _nvngx.dll and nvngx.dll is missing?Quoting: jensNo.Quoting: Comandante ÑoñardoAnyway. I am still unable to activate Death Stranding DLSS on my Nvidia RTX 2060 SUPER using drivers 470.74Do you have a PRIME setup?

DXVK-NVAPI mostly just forwards to DXVK/VkD3D-Proton, a bit of magic happens there, but the actual magic still happens in the CUDA kernel in the NVIDIA driver which, well, requires a recent NVIDIA card.

Quoting: stickyparadigmJust to be clear, this still only works if you have a video card that supports it (RTX 20 or 30), right?Yes correct.
