Quoting: PirolisiIt works, if I had to bet ,I guess was this modification that makes the difference GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="nouveau.modeset=0"

That is strange. Manjaro trying to default to nouveau? or doesn't add the nvidia modules into startup or something?

does manjaro have mkinitcpio?

xpander@archlinux ~ $ grep MODULES= /etc/mkinitcpio.conf
#     MODULES=(piix ide_disk reiserfs)
MODULES=(hid-logitech-hidpp nvidia nvidia_modeset nvidia_uvm nvidia_drm it87)

Thats the place that hooks up modules early on boot at least for Arch/Arch-based distros.

Basically command mkinitcpio -P should check and list the modules for all kernels but that should be done automatically when you install new nvidia packages/kernels but just in case can always manually run.

edit: Then again, manjaro seems to invent their own bicycle with many things, which break the compatibility with Arch/AUR packages.

That mhwd fuckery... :sad:

It works flawlessly here.. kernel header package is needed for it to be able to compile the modules.

Maybe someone with manjaro can help you with that, but it seems that distro is doing something differently with the packages, which is why you are getting problems

Quoting: Pirolisi

Quoting: Xpander

Quoting: PirolisiIf only there was a clear guide to install it on Manjaro for a normie like me trying to use Linux.

git clone https://github.com/Frogging-Family/nvidia-all.git
cd nvidia-all
makepkg -si

and it lets you interactively pick the custom driver number when its not added into the scripts yet.

Spoiler, click me

it gave me this message
"A (correctly made?) linux-headers package can't be found.
If you're sure it's installed, blame your kernel maintainer."
after that it fails the installation
do you have any idea?
update 1: I am trying to update the kernel to a more recent release, let's see
Update 2 : I also installed the headers required with the new kernel, now the installation did not gave me any error, except it asks to resolve some "conflict" where I answered always "yes", now Linux won't arrive in the DE session... Lol.
update 3 another shot
:: nvidia-dev-dkms-tkg and linux515-nvidia are in conflict (nvidia). Remove linux515-nvidia? [y/N]
what the heck I am suppose to do, these are the kind of thing that make me think that i should be just a windows user

linux515-nvidia what is that? Is that not Arch package or something? Could be problem with the distro packages you have. Probably packaged differently.
Never experienced issues with this tkg installer.

Ahh ye. it seems manjaro.. i thought they have driver packages from arch. but it seems they are doing their own thing with those...

Quoting: kellerkindtAny specific things to do to enable the Stutter free experience™? Can I just go with Proton Experimental or GE-Proton?

No special things:
1) Make sure the nvidia vulkan dev/beta drivers are installed
2) Make sure you are opted into the Steam Beta client
3) Use proton-experimental
(Proton-GE im not sure about, if it includes latest DXVK master builds then it should work with it also)

Quoting: mr-victoryUse this:
https://github.com/Frogging-Family/nvidia-all [External Link]
Looks like 515.49.14 is not added yet, last commit is a week old.

I used this for 515.49.14. Just use the custom version and enter the number, select vulkan beta and so on.

Nice. Been using the 515.49.10 since it was made available and its been amazing with the DXVK's graphics pipeline library [External Link] (..AKA the Stutter free experience™)

Now installed this one, lets see how this will handle everything :P

Quoting: TermyI tend to agree with the criticism about unstable APIs for many cases - but in this case, i really blame Epic for using a function deprecated for almost two decades in a recent piece of software.

Blame libstrangle and Shovel Knights devs also?
Still the issue is that it wasn't really advertised that its gonna get removed and is replaced with other method. It was pretty much hidden in some blogspots. Also what if you have some software that is way older. There needs to be a backwards compatibility.

Epic or EAC devs can fix this surely at some point, but what about the software that never gets maintained anymore?

Quoting: JpxeIsn't Flatpak the solution to this? Then you can just target the runtime environment and it will always stay the same as I understand it.

No its not a solution. It has its own issues with different GPU driver versions.
And also holding back updates or reverting breakages will pile up sooner or later and will be a huge maintenance burden.

World details are amazing, sound is really good, animations are well done. Howerver, theres hardly any gameplay. Its more of a walking simulator with some extremely easy puzzles. You can't even fail jumps, it's mostly just press this button to do that when facing something, more like a QTE style thing than actual gameplay. I mean its good if you want to switch off your brain and just be a cat i guess.
