As a note to this, I quite literally got a HDMI 2.1 to DP 1.4 adapter yesterday for this reason. Works well so far, VRR also. Haven't tried HDR yet.

PrussianPrince•8/17/24, 8:23 AM

Obviously shouldn't have to do this, and technically it's a subpar solution (DP 1.4 is inferior to HDMI 2.1, but thankfully there is DSC, maybe there are also other weird things I haven't noticed yet)

are there any terminal commands to increase performance or improve other aspects of linux? is there a HDR equivalent?

K

Kasher_CS•8/17/24, 9:16 AM

KDE has HDR
Bazzite usually tries to already have those terminal commands "Preinstalled"

AAkanar For me VRR jumps around and does not follow FPS.

P

PrussianPrince•8/17/24, 9:26 AM

Hmm, strange... For me, there was an issue where moving the cursor would increase the refresh rate of the monitor (to max). But it seems to be gone now (unrelated to the adapter).

In general, VRR does seem to follow the FPS fairly decently but again, just got the adapter yesterday so heh.

lib32-mesa-git too, because running

Hmm... why is that, if you don't mind me asking?

P

PrussianPrince•8/17/24, 11:28 AM

I did have issues running certain commands from here, for sure: https://github.com/ublue-os/bazzite-arch

P

PrussianPrince•8/17/24, 11:28 AM

I tried the first one, for instance:

distrobox-enter -n bazzite-arch -- '  distrobox-export --app steam'

distrobox-enter -n bazzite-arch -- ' distrobox-export --app steam'

distrobox-enter -n bazzite-arch -- '  distrobox-export --app steam'

distrobox-enter -n bazzite-arch -- ' distrobox-export --app steam' and it lead to this output:

Error: crun: executable file ` distrobox-export --app steam` not found in $PATH: No such file or directory: OCI runtime attempted to invoke a command that was not found

Error: crun: executable file ` distrobox-export --app steam` not found in $PATH: No such file or directory: OCI runtime attempted to invoke a command that was not found

Error: crun: executable file ` distrobox-export --app steam` not found in $PATH: No such file or directory: OCI runtime attempted to invoke a command that was not found

Fixed by running them separately:

distrobox-enter bazzite-arch-gnome
distrobox-export --app steam

distrobox-enter bazzite-arch-gnome
distrobox-export --app steam

distrobox-enter bazzite-arch-gnome
distrobox-export --app steam

distrobox-enter bazzite-arch-gnome
distrobox-export --app steam

PPrussianPrince Hmm... why is that, if you don't mind me asking?

K

Kasher_CS•8/17/24, 11:29 AM

You do want a second version of steam?

KKasher_CS You do want a second version of steam?

P

PrussianPrince•8/17/24, 11:30 AM

Ah, I hid the original Steam by editing the desktop file. So I guess technically it's still installed, but it's hidden.

P

PrussianPrince•8/17/24, 11:30 AM

The idea is to have Steam (potentially Lutris, Bottles, etc) use mesa-git.

K

Kasher_CS•8/17/24, 11:31 AM

Ah, fair enough

K

Kasher_CS•8/17/24, 11:32 AM

That's why most of the time isn't all the time

P

PrussianPrince•8/17/24, 11:33 AM

Still the error above confused me - I assume something definitely went wrong somewhere because they shouldn't error like that when ran as a single command

K

Kasher_CS•8/17/24, 11:34 AM

Shouldn't matter

KKasher_CS That's why *most of the time* isn't *all the time*

P

PrussianPrince•8/17/24, 11:34 AM

Yeah, fair.

Do you happen to know how the settings/saves/games/etc get shared between the native Steam and the bazzite-arch one? Do they use the same folders, etc? Wondering about any conflicts.

K

Kasher_CS•8/17/24, 11:34 AM

Oh yeah, of course you want

distrobox-enter -n bazzite-arch-gnome

distrobox-enter -n bazzite-arch-gnome

distrobox-enter -n bazzite-arch-gnome

distrobox-enter -n bazzite-arch-gnome and not

distrobox-enter -n bazzite-arch

distrobox-enter -n bazzite-arch

distrobox-enter -n bazzite-arch

distrobox-enter -n bazzite-arch, might be the reason

PPrussianPrince Yeah, fair. 😄 Do you happen to know how the settings/saves/games/etc get shared...

Kasher_CS•8/17/24, 11:35 AM

@Akanar I see what you're talking about in terms of the refresh rate jumping around.

I've only seen it in a particular game so far, though - in Witcher 3 for example it follows the FPS pretty much perfectly.

P

PrussianPrince•8/17/24, 1:55 PM

So, I wonder if it also happens without the adapter in that one game I had issues with (Warhammer 3)... would have to test.

P

PrussianPrince•8/17/24, 2:25 PM

For my LG C2, there is VRR info in the OSD. It shows if VRR is enabled, and the refresh rate fluctuates and does not stay fixed.

P

PrussianPrince•8/17/24, 2:26 PM

If your perf overlay is something similar, it should be the same way I would think. As in, if the refresh rate is not moving at all, VRR is not working.

K

KingSlendy•8/17/24, 2:28 PM

The VRR is enabled through the QAM but the refresh rate is not changing at all, could this be an Ally X specific bug?
