Quoting: IzaicTrue. Now it's a matter of time for drivers to include this. nVidia is improving the support for wayland but nvidia settings still don't allow any changes.Quoting: tamodoloThat was added this week, and is mentioned in the post.Quoting: FredrikI wonder if that means hdr support is coming. And I also hope they will make wayland usable with nvidia cards too.I think support for higher than 8bit color is needed before HDR. It's 2022 and I still can't output 10bit color space to my monitor...

Fedora 36 is the first Linux release that actually solves input delay to be on pair with windows. They did this unintentionaly as it was an issue related to touchpads. I am extremely happy by this fix as FINALY FINALY Linux is starting to move forward instead of just doing sidesteps and go anywhere.

Use Wine for gaming on Linux? Try out Bottles

Some recent post said that Linux needs to be pre-installed more to hit mainstream. This is somewhat naive to say specialy if you think Linux have high quality distributions for desktop use today. Unfortunately the desktop is almost dead. The new generation don't use computers but cellphone instead of it.
But let's assume Desktop will prevail and Linux have a chance to dominate over windows. Then Linux need to improve in these topics:
- GUI. It needs GUI for everything and I mean EVERYTHING!. (like this software solves a problem that wine itself don't). There are no users interested in using the terminal in the mainstream.
- The system cannot allow the user to break it easily (Linus effect)
- Latency and Inputlag must be ridiculously low and Desktop Environ and the kernel needs to handle that by default.
- BT needs to be rewriten... seriously...
- It needs Adobe (don't think will happen in the nier future)
- It needs Games (on going by now)
- It needs HDR and above 8 bit collors...
- It needs to keep backward compatibylity! Linux cannot break software because you update a lib that dropped legacy support.
Also, none of that needs to offer a windows like experience. Making a system easy and simple is very hard but also very necessary!

Hollow Knight gets Vulkan on Linux in the new update out now

Quoting: archnemWhen compared to windows, DS4 on Linux is consistently worser. I don't know why. It just is.Quoting: tamodoloPlayed this game on Linux with a DS4. Latency is a grave issue with DS4 on Linux I wasn't able to solve. I'll play again on windows at a later date.That's weird, I finished the entire game with a DS4 as well and I had no latency issue. Nor with any other games. Now I play with my DualSense controller and that works perfectly too.
Sorry Linux, you need to create a STANDARD for how thinks works to ensure low latency at all times. Before that, I'll stick with windows that already STANDARDIZE that.

DXVK 1.5 released with D9VK merged in for D3D9 support, plus a statement on DXVK's future

I wonder. How much close to windows performance DXVK will be capable to achieve? Now it's somewhat 80% of windows performance. I find that awesome but at the same time not enough. By the perspective of practical use, why the same machine should perform less just because the OS?
Come on Linux! You're almost at the point where I can finally leave windows behind! You just need to be a little better and fix some things that windows got it back in XP era.

The excellent SC Controller gamepad tool has two fresh releases available

I recently am searching for ways to use the DS4 and configure it with easy. SC-Controller seems to be the easy but not complete one of the list.
What I'm trying to find: feature parity with the excelent DS4win on Windows.
What I'm trying to avoid: too much headache to do it and behavior parity with windows. (some games running at proton like nier automata have a very diferent vibration behavior than on windows)
If anyone achieve that, please help me!
Thanks a lot!!!
