2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack users for any reason. This includes using blanket terms, like "every user of thing".
  • Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
    • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
    • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility.

    Installing's easy. Does it work? No 🫠 I still can't daily drive linux because how shitty NVIDIA's drivers are

    [–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago

    I can daily drive linux just fine on 3060ti, the Ollama CUDA AI acceleration works without a single issue straight out of the box.

    I do want to be able to game on my main rig though, but that's what I have a laptop with an Intel low-end integrated GFX card for.

    Depends on what distro you used. What's the distro, driver version and graphic card did you try?

    [–] [email protected] 13 points 1 day ago (2 children)

    NixOS (same problem, all distros) 570 drivers, RTX 3060

    Currently on hyprland, same issue with sway/other wlroots compositors (KDE/GNOME work fine-ish, but i prefer compositors and they're full of worse NVIDIA bugs on their own)

    The problem's with proton (or DXVK? Dunno) and how input delay increases heavily with V-Sync enabled. Unfortunately i have to use v-sync, so just dealing with it isn't a choice for me, sorry

    complains about linux being complicated

    uses NixOS

    I think I found your issue... Most Linux distros just work nowadays.

    [–] [email protected] 1 points 23 hours ago

    I'm not complaining that linux is complicated, though. I can use NixOS just fine. I'm talking about NVIDIA drivers being broken, and i've tried multiple distros.

    Did you enable all the hyprland NVIDIA tweaks im running a 3070 on nix hypr and had issues but after setting all the nvidia tweaks and env variables I’ve had no issue with vsync and playing games with bad input lag and I play competitive shooters so I can tell

    [–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

    If by tweaks you mean:

    MODULES=(... nvidia nvidia_modeset nvidia_uvm nvidia_drm ...)

    options nvidia_drm modeset=1 fbdev=1

    env = LIBVA_DRIVER_NAME,nvidia

    env = __GLX_VENDOR_LIBRARY_NAME,nvidia

    Then yeah :/ Could you possibly share the relevant parts of your config please? TIA

    I’m at work currently but those and the nixos programs.hyprland.nvidiaPatches I use the hyprland flake rather then just the package I’ve had better luck

    But this GitHub has a lot of the relevant stuff https://gist.github.com/sioodmy/1932583dd8a804e0b3fe86416b923a16

    Thank you! I'll take a skim over the gist and your dotfiles. This should be really helpful :)
