whatever bazzite is doing, it's overall been less buggy on the LGO than nobara right now.

there's currently a nasty bug where after several suspend-resume cycles in gamescope-session, the LGO screen starts flashing white and basically is unusable unless you reboot.

all the bug reports I've seen for the issue have been for nobara or arch, none for bazzite yet.
edit: i've done some investigating for the flashing screen bug, but have had no leads yet.

but for this specific game, I could see mesa being related

Jorge•2/3/24, 5:24 AM

Would bazzite work on a MacBook Pro?

matt_schwartz•2/3/24, 5:24 AM

I just know that our combo worked well enough for other devs to ask wtf we were using

Jorge•2/3/24, 5:25 AM

one using integrated intel graphics

matt_schwartz•2/3/24, 5:25 AM

for p3r specifically

AruOP•2/3/24, 5:27 AM

yeah, let me try p3r in gamescope-session with nobara on my LGO

AruOP•2/3/24, 5:27 AM

and see what happens

matt_schwartz•2/3/24, 5:28 AM

I’d fully update first via konsole just to be safe, nobara-sync clinobara-sync cli

matt_schwartz•2/3/24, 5:28 AM

or nobara-sync in TTY

AruOP•2/3/24, 5:29 AM

hrm, turns out i don't have a nobara ssd on hand, time to install it onto a spare drive

KKyle Gospo Could certainly be related

matt_schwartz•2/3/24, 5:30 AM

my guess is it’s one of the more recent commits behind the difference since this is a deck verified title

matt_schwartz•2/3/24, 5:33 AM

I was told Mesa 24.0 is a substantial improvement across the board for P3R specifically so maybe these Vulkan commits are a part of that. We’re on 23.3.3 I think.

AruOP•2/3/24, 5:34 AM

I wonder why p3r works in desktop mode on the LGO. just not in gamescope session

matt_schwartz•2/3/24, 5:35 AM

I’ve had Vulkan issues with RPCS3 before that presented the same way

matt_schwartz•2/3/24, 5:35 AM

This was months ago though

matt_schwartz•2/3/24, 5:35 AM

Desktop would work, game mode would crash with a Vulkan error

AruOP•2/3/24, 5:35 AM

proton logs unfortunately weren't particularly helpful when i checked them

matt_schwartz•2/3/24, 5:36 AM

yeah more than likely it would be gpu logs of some sort. No clue if/how Mesa keeps track of that stuff tbh. I’m just reporting what I’ve heard from people with way more knowledge about this stuff than me.

AruOP•2/3/24, 5:36 AM

looking on protondb, it looks like while most people aren't having issues, there's a few outliers that are also running into similar crashing

AruOP•2/3/24, 5:37 AM

lol yeah, i have no idea on mesa stuff

matt_schwartz•2/3/24, 5:38 AM

it’s a shame there’s a couple of locations that run like dogshit because of the ray tracing but overall I think it makes quite a nice improvement in many scenes without too much of a performance hit

matt_schwartz•2/3/24, 5:39 AM

like the battle effects and such are all noticeably ray traced but run very well for me

matt_schwartz•2/3/24, 5:39 AM

it’s just that fucking mall lol
