Quoting: dubigrasuI don't personally care about 4K, (I think 1440p is the sweet spot) I care more about a minimum of 60fps. And I doubt is Stadia's choice here, (rather Bethesda's), but is ridiculous that (as stated in the article) Elder scrolls Online still runs at 30fps even cranked down at 720p.
All this while they were talking even about 8K. They really really need to stop this over-promise > under-deliver thing they're doing.

Yeah, seems like a heavy disconnect between marketing/sales and actual development team.

Nice, with also Nvidia preparing for xWayland I guess I'm only missing Chrome/Chromium/Electron in Wayland land.

Not really gaming but kind-of: Advent of Code https://adventofcode.com/2020 [External Link]. I still have a few days to go...

It has landed in my library. Runs beautifully, though just started it briefly.

Quoting: leillo1975Still having the same error of 460.32. rFactor 2 [External Link] has a big performance regression. With 450 driver I have between 80-100 fps, and with 460, 20-30 fps. Seems that Red Dead Redemption 2 has the same problem.

Could you try WINEDLLOVERRIDES=dxgi=n %command% as launch option for RDR2? I think this fixed the performance with the newer Nvidia driver for me.

Edit, ah scratch that. May be I had just once a lucky shot, using DXVK's dxgi.dll makes no difference.

Quoting: BrisseThey should call it VKD3D-Proton-Photon.

My impression is, that there is nearly no more original code left from vkd3d, so I would go for D12VK-Photon :)
(I know, technically DXVK and VKD3D-Proton are not related to each other)

Quoting: jensThink you can use the gnome tweak tool to extend the workspaces to all monitors. I don’t remember exactly where that switch was, but I definitely have two monitors changing workspaces on my work setup.

You can, but everything that deals with the Tweak Tool is at least a bit hacky. And the best it can do is create essentially an extended workspace, so every time you switch to another workspace all monitors switch to a different workspace. It's an improvement over fixed workspaces, but significantly inferior to i3/Sway workspace behaviour. What I would like is the ability to have, say, a social workspace with IRC/Discord/Mumble on my second monitor, but also a workspace with a web browser for reading documentation. Then on my primary I could have Emacs open as I work on some coding project. What I would like to do then is occasionally switch the second monitor over to instant messaging without switching the workspace on primary. Or I might want to keep the social workspace open on the secondary while I browse through some other workspaces on primary.

I don't know i3/sway. But yeah, currently it is indeed either just one monitor or all monitors together afaik. Having just those two options works for me, but I can imagine going back from a more sophisticated workspace handling might be frustrating.

Quoting: SamsaiI'm also a bit disappointed that the relationship between displays and workspaces has been kept as is. Only the primary display having workspaces and all other displays getting just one doesn't really fit my workflow at all, and I'd much prefer i3/Sway style per-display workspaces, so that I can have the secondary monitor carry out tasks related to the current thing I'm working on.

Quoting: MohandevirThat's exactly why I say that Valve must clean the mess that it (Protondb) became. It's their tech... It should be their support (but it doesn't mean excluding the help of the community). Imo, there should be a Protondb similar tool that is maintained by Valve and the whitelist should be expanded because there is a lot of games that are really at Platinum level. It's just that at this time, Protondb is poluted by way too much "false positives" and that makes it completely unreliable.

ProtonDB is not a Valve site, it’s a community site created and filled by enthusiastic reporters. It’s stated like this on the footer of the ProtonDB site. Only the Proton GitHub project is managed by Valve employees.
