parabola linux

I have been using linux with a 1060 for 4 years almost 5, and it isn’t that bad now, tho you need to make a lot of compromise!

At the beginning I experiencing a lot of graphical glitches! Like screen flipping when using an app that used a lot of gpu power or app going black after doing soo!

To this day on that pc I still experience black bars on the sides of apps and as even stated by doitsujin (dxvk creator):

Low D3D12 performance on Nvidia Pascal (and older) GPUs is expected and likely won’t improve much. The hardware has a bunch of limitations that make it very hard to extract good performance. Turing fares better, but only AMD actually runs reasonably well right now.

And all of this on xorg to be clear! On the other hand I have an amd laptop with an igpu where I can safely say my experience was almost flawless!

As a 1060 owner I’m gonna tell you this is probably the case only for newer gpus!

There’s something inside you
It’s hard to explain
They’re talking about you, boy
But you’re still the same

The 980Ti as stated by the Dirk’s comment use Maxwell architecture, I’m not able to find any end of support date on the site, so I’m not sure when they will drop support.

Will there come a time that i will not be able to properly use this card with linux and run (modest games) games on it?

Unfortunately you don’t need to wait to see this happens, because it’s already happening right now, indeed dx12 games have a lot of problems running on this older cards on linux, and I myself experienced this with my 1060 first with cyberpunk 2077 and after that with resident evil 2 remastered.

Because the open module is only for Turing or later GPUs, or Ada, and the open module is available for those since 2022 so it’s not that big of a news.

Sorry my bad the petition does state citizen, title edited!

Best part, Linus is the youngest of the four!

For now they didn’t share nothing about it!

Tho in the roadmap for plasma 6.5 (https://community.kde.org/Plasma/Plasma_6) you can find:

• Union theming system tech preview
• plasma-login SDDM replacement
• Wayland picture-in-picture protocol support
• Rounded bottom window corners
• Location services KCM
• Global shortcuts found by KRunner
• Automatic brightness adjustment on devices with light sensors

No the guys is right, at first the title did only mention SteamOS, that’s why!

(Either way I edited the tile, and to be precise, it was released 11 years and 7 months ago)

No GPU acceleration still?

Yes there is some work for ps1 games for example the crash team racing demp

https://github.com/CTR-tools/CTR-ModSDK This is the link, tho the repo is being used for ctr mod tools too.

Can you link a source for this?

That’s what I did too with my friends back in the days 😅

I have some nostalgia for the port, tho it was a pretty good port of the game, with the 4j spins added to the game! Stuff like minigames, console exclusive hud, strange mechanics not present in any other version of the game and god damn the tutorials, the tutorial world were the best!
