And it might help Nouveau figure out how to reclock for older GPUs too if some ideas can be shared.

Quoting: RichardYaoProbably only for Turing and Ampere since this driver does not support older GPUs.At least if they keep it up for everything upcoming too, it's good. Persoanlly I wouldn't worry about older GPUs much, let alone about Nvidia in general until they upstream things proper. It's a step in the right direction, but just the first one.

Wow, that's a big deal. Nouveau will get reclocking, after forever being stuck without it!

That's pretty cool that they are using an open source engine for a high profile game. But I wonder why that one specifically. Is it better than let's say Godot?
By the way, animation sequences in the game trailer look pretty good! Surely not small budget.

Doesn't Deck come with KDE? So you can probably pull it from the repo if your set up in not in immutable mode. Unless SteamOS repos don't have such packages?
