Finally i can ditch the vulkan dev drivers. Seems graphics pipeline library made into it:

xpander@archlinux ~ $ vulkaninfo | grep VK_EXT_graphics_pipeline
VK_EXT_graphics_pipeline_library            : extension revision 1
xpander@archlinux ~ $ nvidia-smi | grep Version
| NVIDIA-SMI 520.56.06    Driver Version: 520.56.06    CUDA Version: 11.8     |

Smooth™ stutterfree gaming ftw!

Shatterline doesn't need the protonfix since the R66 game update. Devs fixed the issues on their side with it.
The only remaining issue is that the steam overlay doesnt work with the game (Unless you use gamescope) which makes it impossible to buy ingame items with real money.

R66 Release Notes (September 27)
• Fixed EAC kick for Linux anti-cheat module.

Hotfix R66_hf4 (Oct 3)
• Technical tweaks for Steam Deck support.

First fix was the d3dcompiler_47 issue with EAC kick. They included the dll with the game.
Second fix was the win10 using RIO sockets that are not supported by wine.

Hi All, today we updated the game with a version without RIO sockets, it works well now on Steam Deck and I hope it will work without setting win7 now on Linux as well

Maybe the devs just don't want that huge of an attention currenly with the game being still in work in progress state. They might be happy enough with the current situation about the money. The fans will buy the game anyway and they get some feedback to work towards the fully feature complete game and then maybe one day they release it on steam to get more attention. My thoughts on that.

This looks a bit strange. If you look the combined stats, then Arch Linux is the most used and SteamOS is nowhere to be seen. When you check Linux only then SteamOS is taking the first spot.
I wonder why is that?

I didn't even know that there are Amazon Games, until very recently. That was quite a shock news to me. So its another launcher cause we really needed more of those?
Good to see support for all those launchers i guess though.

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)
