awesome!
im lowkey waiting for a 555 release myself. i can finally use my mixed refresh rate monitor setup properly through wayland, which is a massive bonus for me

Tsubajashi (ツバジャシ)OP•6/23/24, 12:04 AM

but at the same time, i moved to arch to play around with it. i prefer the ublue/bazzite way more, but it was harder to set up for me

It's in testing

Kyle Gospo•6/23/24, 12:10 AM

Let me know how it works

KKyle Gospo It's in testing

Tsubajashi (ツバジャシ)OP•6/23/24, 12:10 AM

i will instantly test it out! downloading a iso to rebase from just as we type

Dylan•6/23/24, 12:10 AM

It's a massive improvement over 550

Tsubajashi (ツバジャシ)OP•6/23/24, 12:11 AM

if it works nicely, i know which OS to install on when my new PC comes in

Tsubajashi (ツバジャシ)OP•6/23/24, 12:11 AM

i would be here typing all day probably when that happens, as i want to get gpu passthrough working then

Tsubajashi (ツバジャシ)OP•6/23/24, 12:11 AM

getting a PC with 2 4090, where 1 4090 should go to a windows VM

do the newer isos work fine through ventoy, or do they still fail on it?

TTsubajashi (ツバジャシ)do the newer isos work fine through ventoy, or do they still fail on it?

HikariKnight•6/23/24, 12:18 AM

ventoy has been supported since we got offline isos

TTsubajashi (ツバジャシ)do the newer isos work fine through ventoy, or do they still fail on it?

Kyle Gospo•6/23/24, 12:18 AM

They work now

Tsubajashi (ツバジャシ)OP•6/23/24, 12:18 AM

nice!

Tsubajashi (ツバジャシ)OP•6/23/24, 12:20 AM

ill let you guys know if it works. download will probably take 30 mins for the iso to rebase from, and i should be done with everything in about 1:30

whens tbe nvidia driver becoming stable man

im dying over here

Tsubajashi (ツバジャシ)OP•6/23/24, 12:21 AM

i guess 560 branch should be around mid next month?

HikariKnight•6/23/24, 12:21 AM

555 is in testing atm

Tsubajashi (ツバジャシ)OP•6/23/24, 12:21 AM

but i gotta say, i havent had any big issue with the 555 branch so far on arch

Tsubajashi (ツバジャシ)OP•6/23/24, 12:22 AM

i mean yea, i had to put a few kernel parameters for it to work well, but thats about it

TTsubajashi (ツバジャシ)but i gotta say, i havent had any big issue with the 555 branch so far on arch

Kyle Gospo•6/23/24, 12:22 AM

Firefox is broken atm

Tsubajashi (ツバジャシ)OP•6/23/24, 12:22 AM

i think thats due to the explicit sync patch on plasma, isnt it?

Tsubajashi (ツバジャシ)OP•6/23/24, 12:23 AM

atleast thats what i heard

Tsubajashi (ツバジャシ)OP•6/23/24, 12:23 AM

nvidia_drm.modeset=1 nvidia_drm.fbdev=1 nvidia.NVreg_EnableGpuFirmware=0

nvidia_drm.modeset=1 nvidia_drm.fbdev=1 nvidia.NVreg_EnableGpuFirmware=0

after making sure i had these 3 parameters in my /etc/default/grub, i havent had any crash even on firefox on plasma 6.1 wayland on my 3080 with the 555 branch driver

Tsubajashi (ツバジャシ)OP•6/23/24, 12:24 AM

there were other recommended ones across a few forums, but they are not as important as these 3

KKyle Gospo Firefox is broken atm

Kamquat•6/23/24, 12:32 AM

Huh?

Kamquat•6/23/24, 12:32 AM

Oh Nvidia, nvm.

M2•6/23/24, 12:32 AM

I'm curious on when will the modset flag no need inclusion. Nvidia's fbdev is a bit broken. It will occasionally just fail to work completely leaving the screen stuck with artifacts.

There's a lot of weirdness in them, but this is the first time that I actually believe they are testing on sway like they claimed since 515(?)

Tsubajashi (ツバジャシ)OP•6/23/24, 12:33 AM

could definitely be

Ripps•6/23/24, 12:40 AM

looks like the system76-scheduler is out, and bore+gamemode is in the nvidia-testing images. interesting.....

Crono•6/23/24, 12:41 AM

Gamemode isn't recommended, I think it's only there as a dependency for something

Crono•6/23/24, 12:43 AM

It's System76 Scheduler that's being dropped in favor of just running games as a regular program

Kyle Gospo•6/23/24, 12:43 AM

Can be used if you like

Kyle Gospo•6/23/24, 12:44 AM

Just not something I'm gonna focus on

Crono•6/23/24, 12:45 AM

I believe you've been saying something to the effect of Gamemode forcing the performance profile leading to worsened performance, no?

Crono•6/23/24, 12:48 AM

Because of the CPU being pegged at higher power states instead of boosting opportunistically

Kyle Gospo•6/23/24, 12:48 AM

Yep

Crono•6/23/24, 12:49 AM

I believe that's not applicable when pstate is being used though

Crono•6/23/24, 12:49 AM

At least going from how ArchWiki describes those drivers

Crono•6/23/24, 12:51 AM

When pstate is set to active it's either a general powersave or performance hint being sent
