essentially we should keep nvidia and nvidia-legacy both on proprietary for a bit before we flip the switch on nvidia to use the open kernel module, this gives people on older nvidia images time to catch up and get the silent rebase logic in for F41, and it gives us time to test

j0rge•8/9/24, 2:38 PM

and not the ostree ones, that would silly if they didn't set them up that way out of the box

j0rge•8/9/24, 2:40 PM

yeah someone should just post a heads up on the forum

Adrian E. (Open Source)•8/9/24, 2:42 PM

Are there examples of building custom rpm packages in bluefin or other universal blue stuff?

j0rge•8/9/24, 2:46 PM

most people use COPR and then just copy them into the image

Bbketelsen interesting observation: bazzite: We'll layer it! bluefin: WE LAYER NOTHING. ...

j0rge•8/9/24, 2:47 PM

this has been annoying me all morning

j0rge•8/9/24, 2:47 PM

hahahah

j0rge•8/9/24, 2:48 PM

but I think the practical answer is Bazzite has a more complicated user to cater to and it's easier for them to deal with the maintenance cost because it's better than a reviewer saying "it's missing this part vs. competitors."

j0rge•8/9/24, 2:49 PM

where as I am trying to burn everything down with as little compromises to the design as I can get away with

HikariKnightOP•8/9/24, 2:53 PM

true, bazzites needs sometimes require stuff to be layered directly vs just running in distrobox/brew or whatever.

HikariKnightOP•8/9/24, 2:53 PM

we do go for flatpaks where we can though!

Robotta•8/9/24, 3:13 PM

That's pretty fair
I'm glad I'll be able to keep using ublue

Jj0rge most people use COPR and then just copy them into the image

Kyle Gospo•8/9/24, 3:20 PM

You can also build them locally in a fedora distrobox

Kyle Gospo•8/9/24, 3:20 PM

And then layer the result

Kyle Gospo•8/9/24, 3:20 PM

Assuming it doesn't work in distrobox in the first place

RRobert Not sure what transition you're referring to. If it's the 555 -> 560 switch, ...

Pryka•8/9/24, 4:33 PM

Negativo still have 555 in his repo, no way to lock on it?

Dylan•8/10/24, 12:52 AM

why would we downgrade to 555 with 560 out?

Pryka•8/10/24, 1:32 AM

560 is not out, it is in beta.

@Dylan 555 was pinned down for a reason. From my understanding it was supposed to be unppined after 560 official release. But mix of 555 and 560 module/driver happened and there was no other choice.

Pryka•8/10/24, 1:33 AM

But maybe I don't understand the whole situation clearly.

Dylan•8/10/24, 1:35 AM

Sounds like it should have been packaged as nvidia-beta so things didn't automatically update

Pryka•8/10/24, 8:35 AM

Yeah, but unfortunately Negativo shipped it like this in his repository.

HikariKnightOP•8/10/24, 9:50 AM

first rpmfusion now negativo

Kasher_CS•8/10/24, 9:58 AM

Clearly the best repo to use is https://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/repos/fedora39

Kasher_CS•8/10/24, 9:58 AM

(/s, ofc)

Zeglius•8/10/24, 10:01 AM

Isnt there a way to make a snapshot of negativo rpm? So we dont end up dealing with bleeding-edge versions

Aantheas How about update size?

M2•8/10/24, 1:53 PM

update size has been much better. Significantly smaller

M2•8/10/24, 1:54 PM

if the build is recent enough it's literally just the one small layer being redownloaded. Just much better on not having to download a multi gig layer at the end

j0rge•8/10/24, 3:27 PM

yeah I did a cosmic update in a vm yesterday and it was like 350MB

Robert•8/10/24, 5:01 PM

Been trying to figure out how we can pin Negativo17 drivers to the non-beta ones, and I cannot figure it out.
Lots of package conflicts

j0rge•8/10/24, 5:02 PM

ah nuts I was on cosmic-base, had to do a rebase to just cosmic, so no savings on that one

Robert•8/10/24, 5:03 PM

Our cosmic installations seem to be lagging behind quite a bit. The PopOS ISO has many more options in the settings pages for some reason, like being able to change the dock

M2•8/10/24, 5:09 PM

Pretty much our cosmic image is whatever is packaged in the copr.

Robert•8/10/24, 5:10 PM

Ah. The cosmic-settings COPR build has been failing for over a week. An issue with the .desktop file

j0rge•8/10/24, 5:23 PM

repo's pretty much ready to go, I labelled a few incoming issues so the issue bot can warm up, should be good to go now

Ivo•8/10/24, 6:42 PM

Greetings, I created a PR for cosmic variant. It should add the ublue-os:config files to the cosmic image. Hope it works. Can someone start the build process, please?

MM2 @antheas Data points for rechunking: My bluefin image is roughly 1 GB smaller...
