No official Linux support, which means no Steam Deck support as well. Yes, there’s Legendary but I shouldn’t have to jump through those hoops.
nixos-anywhere also works well for this use case.
His name is Hans and drinking has ruined his life.
Correct - FSR already applies CAS. I don’t think applying another CAS pass on top of that will work out too well.
True. I was assuming sharpening was disabled altogether, but if it’s just set not strong enough, that’s a different matter.
If you want to use with mpv, try this:
ENABLE_HDR_WSI=1 mpv --vo=gpu-next --target-colorspace-hint --gpu-api=vulkan --gpu-context=waylandvk
Although I’m surprised you didn’t get a HDR monitor prompt just from enabling the option on the desktop.
Nope, those converters do not allow the HDMI 2.1 spec.
They exist now, although I don’t think there is a working DP 2.0 -> HDMI 2.1 converter yet, so you have to use DSC (visually lossless compression).
Are you using a DP -> HDMI converter? I know they can be temperamental.
You can try switching VTs back and forth (CTRL-ALT-F1 <-> CTRL-ALT-F7), and maybe switching resolution back and forth could help.
Make sure you have the latest kernel and try the latest Plasma 6. If all of that fails, you can try Steam with gamescope running in KMS mode (easiest way to test this would probably be Bazzite or Nobara if your distribution doesn’t support it), but it’s also a bit temperamental with enabling HDR.
Thing is, the colors on my HDR display are all washed out on the desktop if I enable HDR.
Sometimes this can be a bug and HDR isn’t properly enabled. Do you get any sort of HDR notification on your display (i.e. from the monitor/tv UI)?
Steam Controller, although both of the ones I’ve owned have developed hardware problems. I’m dreading the day they kick the bucket and I have to switch back to a conventional controller.
The only kinda irritating thing is the game mode update changelog displays the steamos notes and not bazzite notes
And you have to do a Bazzite update to make it go away, which is slightly annoying. I’m not sure if you can do it from the Steam UI either, although I can always SSH in.
It is definitely relevant if you buy new hardware when it’s initially released, although Mesa devs seem to be getting better at having it mostly ready by that point. I know historically there were times where you really had to be at the very bleeding edge, and updating to the very latest kernel and firmware was necessary.
True, but being the only person willing to do something is kind of laudable in it’s own right. Like all of the open source projects relied upon by millions that are sometimes developed primarily by one person in their free time.
You could try headscale instead, which doesn’t actually pass much traffic between the VPS and clients (client to client is where the actual data transfer happens).
Or just test out regular hosted Tailscale to see if it will fit your needs.
I was going to say that librewolf has no declarative extension config on nix, but this does. Neat.
Another case is listing a huge number of steps to do some task, without acting describing what the end goal for each set of instructions is (common in “how to” guides, and especially ones that involve a GUI).
This means that less technical users don’t really understand what is going on and are just following steps in a rote way, and it wastes the time of technical users since they probably know how to achieve each goal already.
There is a case to be made that people should be a bit more well rounded in general, and not just find a specific niche.
So non-technical people should still have a decent familiarity with computers and maybe be able to do some very basic coding. And technical people should spend some time working on their written and verbal communication.
Because in both cases, it makes people more effective in their roles.
I had a similar experience with NixOS-anywhere and a VPS issue. Reset the OS, setup SSH key access and ran NixOS-anywhere and within like 15 minutes was back up and running.
The characters were just 2D sprites from what I recall. And the isometric camera kind of gave it a 2D feel even if it wasn’t actually 2D.
Anyway, hopefully this isn’t a Switch exclusive as that would be lame.
