Quoting: ElectricPrismAnyone playing this with Eldewrito yet?

I just tried the "Halo online" install script from Lutris. Didn't work out of the box, so I drag and dropped those D9VK dlls into the folder, and everything now seems to be working fine :)

I'm eager to try the multiplayer, but I need some time first :)

Now someone cook us a splitscreen script! :D

This is on sway/wayland, btw.

Quoting: GuestNvidia: releases the driver with the hardware on the same day, even for linux.
AMD: "We are targeting a launch day driver [for Linux] but Windows obviously takes priority"(https://www.forbes.com/sites/jasonevangelho/2019/07/02/will-amd-radeon-rx-5700xt-graphics-cards-support-linux-gaming/#4e6d19043af9 [External Link])

Didn't AMD have launch-day driver support? Only the Vulkan bits weren't (and still aren't) open source yet (AMDVLK), but RADV devs are taking care of that.

Open source integration often means release cycles decoupled from hw releases, which can sometimes lead to support delays, but I'm not buying HW (or software) on day 1, anyways.

Quoting: ThormackAny signs of full support to Optimus system?

(I mean, change integrated to dedicated card without reloging).

Note: if anyone wants to do that with the full open stack (might require Wayland as well?), prefixing the command with DRI_PRIME=true should be enough to launch it on the dedicated GPU.

All right, my GPU now systematically hangs when starting the new stage (from the latest update).

At least, I can reproduce. Reported there: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=111020 [External Link]

Highly anticipated. I just rewatched the trailer, it is looking gorgeous as ever. Also, I just noticed the HEV zombie at 0:46 :D

I'm somehow getting a Dofus/Wakfu feeling from looking at this :)

IMO this move by canonical is long overdue. I was surprised to see such negatives reactions about it.

If support for 32bit libs had been ended a while ago, we wouldn't be in this situation today.
The easy availability of 32bit libraries is pushing app developers to distribute 32bit executables, which needs to stop.

On the other hand, steam could ship with the whole 32bit runtime, as needed, and it would make for less breakage (see flatpak).

But I agree that this could have been handled a bit more gradually. First deprecate it and print a warning when opening/installing an application for the first time. Then move multilib packages to a disabled-by-defaut source. Then to a PPA. Then remove it.

Quoting: melkemindI started packing to move and now can't find mine! :( I'm going through serious withdrawal right now.

Ah, I know that feeling :P.
Just imagine you have it (pick up an object the same shape) and pack it where it makes sense, I usually find that after some thinking I pick up the exact same place as the actual one most of the times ^^

I like the steam controller. It works well for most uses. But the best part of it is the API. I love it when games are integrated and allow you to select different bindings depending on whether you are in a menu, driving a vehicle, etc.

Most games work fine with it after some tweaking. All of them, actually. Though it was a bit difficult to configure it to easily play Nier Automata, and I still have some glitches with shadow of mordor (thankfully there's the gyro aim).

However, the in-game overlay has regressed quite a bit lately (there are some glitches, such as with the deazones configuration).
I also wish we could access the BP overlay when using a controller, regardless of whether we're in BP mode or not.

I hope those Ryzen will all feature a display controller. It sucks to have video outputs that I can't use on my motherboard (2700X). Other than that (and the costly BIOS update I had to do, but this should be fixed with the latest gen), I've been pretty happy with it, I can't wait to see Zen2 + Navi :D

Quoting: BotonoskiAnd yet another reminder that I haven't changed my setup much in a long while.
I think my GPU is dying, or the PSU, or both. Or neither? seems like all my issues started occurring after after running the Blender 2.8 beta for a few hours, so either bad timing or the program somehow corrupted something. Though I doubt any sort of corruption would cause my PC to randomly shut off.

A bad PSU is dangerous, I lost my previous graphics card that way.
That said, it might also be invalid shaders generated by blender, though those would tend to lock up the GPU/system instead of shutting the computer down.

Liam, I second Shmerl's phrasing. Seeing how many answer XFCE+Wayland would be indicative of the accuracy of the results.

Hmm, I use sway, but that wouldn't really fit the "window manager" category, would it?
I would be a bit curious regarding Wayland vs X :)
