I love The Ascent, but I'm stuck on a specific part of the game. Hopefully the Deck would give me a chance for picking it back and finishing it finally.

Very delighted about it. Last weekend I plugged in my Radeon card in my main computer, to try it with some of the games I'm currently playing on Steam (God of War, CP2077 and Forza Horizon 5). It has lasted for about 2 hrs probably.

This not irrelevant piece of news would obviously have some significant implications in PC Gaming.
How companies such as Valve would react? Would they try to negotiate with Microsoft for an extension of their Game Pass in the Steam Deck, if the latter had a successful outcome, as Gaben himself was hinting at in the previous months?

Driver 495.44 seems to have broken the RTX with VKD3D-Proton on Manjaro, in games such as The Ascent or Ghostrunner. Here a conversation in Reddit where we found the issue:

XWayland 21.1.3 rolls out supporting NVIDIA 495.44 with the GBM API

I'm at the point to finally switch to Wayland then.
Unfortunately with Gnome 40.* I'm still experiencing the issue that the defined refresh rate is the half of the monitor supported one [External Link] on NVIDIA GPU. Apparently is a EGL issue, which has been fixed for Gnome 42 and GBM (and then NVIDIA Driver 495.44). A few months still to go then for a reliable solution.
