Valve gets another developer to work on Linux graphics drivers, starting with AMD RADV

Croteam refuse to release their recent games on GOG. So I haven't played any of them anyway.

Quoting: MohandevirIt seems there are brands specialized in Nvidia and brands specialized in AMD... From what I get, MSI is in the Nvidia camp.
Yes, Sapphire is the primary AMD partner.

Quoting: Duke TakeshiCan't buy an AMD GPU as I'm doing machine learning and Nvidia cards are much better at that.
They are not better, but Nvidia locked many AI libraries into using CUDA instead of portable APIs like Vulkan or OpenCL. So these libraries make it look like it's "better" because they simply don't work with anything but Nvidia.

That's why CUDA is so disgusting.

Quoting: TheRiddickMaybe valve can get some push going on NVIDIA working under Wayland?
That's a futile expectation. The only way this kind of problem could be fixed is Nvidia starting using open source kernel driver (either their own or Nouveau). Until that happens, don't expect progress. It would take them decades to support anything modern. That in theory could happen, but Nvidia is clearly not in a rush to do it.

I wouldn't rely on those scripts anyway. They are not maintained in the long term. You can always analyze what fixes are needed and apply them yourself.

I agree, that should be optional. But I wouldn't mind prefixes sharing the same version of Wine to use symlinks for all objects that don't require overrides. Like dummy dlls and such. If override is present, then it naturally shouldn't be deduplicated.

He could be working on ACO, since it's using C++. Great to have more developers working on it!

Heh. macOS is basically done for gaming. I don't expect developers to make games for it much anymore.

Yes, this whole last X months question was rather strange. A simple "do you use" is a lot more to the point.
