Hello brasil

So basically I can migrate my fedora to modules and "plug/unplug" them if necessary

?

@Wolfshappen Interesting. I have heard it has come a long way, but I am always a little skeptical. But if you have had good, recent experiences with it, I might give it a go again.

Well, my most recent time i had it was with Fedora 26 onna quadro m2xxx series (i think) and it ran better than the binary driver because binary kept crashing on my 4 displays (2 intel, 2 connected to the nvidia)

Wait I thought every driver is binary... So what is non-binary driver then?

Open source nouveau vs random blob here and hope it works from nvidia.

ohh okay.

It was unobvious for me.

Hello!

Anybody here using Fedora with kde?

I have a single monitor and simple use case. I have an NVIDIA GeForce 660 Ti chip, so nowadays it is also pretty old too.

That one may even be already reclockable. And with older chips yes, definitely go nouveau! :P

Unless you need anything hardcore gaming.

*looks at Minecraft* ?

They say nouveau can't handle even basic 3D at reasonable performance.

When I built this desktop, the chip was newer, but… four years goes by really fast. ?

They say nouveau can't handle even basic 3D at reasonable performance.

Only when nvidia decided to be nvidia again and thus nouveau cant reclock the card, thus being stuck at the lowest cpu clock the card can do.

Anybody here using Fedora with kde?

Me.

For cards that nouveau can change the clock of its pretty fast

Me.

I don't know if you use nvidia card, but averytime that I open steam kwin is crashing, and make a mess with composite

For cards that nouveau can change the clock of its pretty fast

Is there a place or way to check compatibility with video card?

Did you see something like that?

@jflory

https://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/PowerManagement/ Check here if your card is supported ( https://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/CodeNames/ )

Don't use nvidea cards or steam. But kde disables compositing on many full screen apps including Kodi and many games. It can be toggled with Alt+Shift+F12.

Why don't to use nvidia card for Steam? How to game then?

@Wolfshappen Excellent! Thanks.

Going by WIP i'd suggest just having a go at it and trying, if minecraft works out for you theres no reason to use the nvidia blobs over it.

Yeah. Odds are looking fairly good for me now. I can't remember what it was like when I built my system. I remember seeing this chart a long time ago.

@tuxtergames To stop disabling of compositor, search for compositor setting in system settings and disable the checkbox at the end.

And next time team red? :3

Then you won't have to worry about driver woes at all

I stopped gaming on steam long ago.

And next time team red? :3

AMD?

I stopped gaming on steam long ago.

But others still play.

I'll try this here

When I built, AMD's scene on Linux was less than stellar, but it seems like they have done a big turnaround recently with Linux drivers

I stopped gaming on steam long ago.

Why? Steam theres a good games!

Not opensource but nice and cheapest games.

But others still play.

Oh. I get your confusion. By "Don't use nvidea cards or steam", I meant I don't....

I remember a friend who built his desktop at the same time I did, and he got a AMD Radeon something, it was top of the line in 2015. But he had every possible problem ever with it. No Linux distribution worked with it and if I remember right, he even had problems with it on Windows for a few months until the drivers stabilized.

oh okay then.

I don't game in general. SuperTuxKart is all I play these days. That too rarely.

AMD for Windows is meh.

That experience turned me away from AMD, then I heard a few months ago they are either open sourcing their drivers or working to include them in the kernel? I forgot what I read, it was back in December or January.

Don't fix, still crashing....

Weird couse I don't play games, just open Steam and kwin crash

<Ice-Wreck> Whats your rendering backend?

<Ice-Wreck> Whats your rendering backend?

me?

What happens when you change it? @tuxtergames

yup

AMD?

Aye

What happens when you change it? @tuxtergames

you asking about openGL and Xrender?

yes

That experience turned me away from AMD, then I heard a few months ago they are either open sourcing their drivers or working to include them in the kernel? I forgot what I read, it was back in December or January.

They did both

nothing, works well, Xrender disable affects, the problem is when I open Steam

They did both

Nice!!

when this happen my taskbar goes crazy, to half fix, I need to open a terminal and running a "kwin —replace" then come to normal, but the command in terminal don't finish

sorry my English....

What does the error message say in English? Also do other windows start misbehaving? Cause if it does then steam probably disabled your compositor. Otherwise, its probably a driver problem.

Nice!!

Well, they open sourced an entirely new driver that is now not only open sauce but actively involves the community, has a full community-made (and amd accepted as official) vulkan implementation, because amd was a lil slow, radv - and this driver is apparently also the base for their windows driver. And they work on bringing their opencl render code, ROCm also now open sauce, upstream into the kernel.

This is what happen with kwin doen't finish command https://paste.fedoraproject.org/paste/tVGa3uxZ4CusfMnHUbH5qw

ERROR: S client not available

Only downside is you need a rx2xx or newer

Oh, definitely nice!!!

the message is that something happen and restart kwin

And they work on adding opencl support for most popular and current ai platforms

looks like kwin is restarting to inicate steam and after restart ocurring and error with opengl

In this case, you should ask the kwin maintainer. He is pretty active. But I still think that unchecking the allow apps to disable compositing and setting renderer to xren should do the trick.

Lets try to do this I'll finish my session

You didn't try this earlier? That was literally the first thing I told you to do. Do this. Click apply. Run steam.

Damn. I knew they were doing good things but I didn't know the extent. And building a community around the project is perhaps the most difficult part

My next video card will be AMD then without a doubt, I guess

I still don’t know if I can justify AMD over Nvidia for my fedora box yet. Only thing I would like a GPU for is Cycles rendering in blender. But amd doesn’t support it yet

I was just try to xrender without finish my session

And uncheck the allow apps to disable compositing box too.

+1

After changing to xrender, my session don't show my desktop, I need to ctrl+alt+f1 and f2 to show again

looks like the problem is kwin

i'm afraid can't help you then. You should ask the kwin maintainer.

ok! tks for your help

@jflory @Kohane @buredoRUNofthecyborg @AnXh3L0 Spam

Done!

@Wolfshappen To be fair, I haven't tried Nouveau since I built this desktop. When I used it before, my screen resolution was poor and I had magenta lines tearing on my screen. But this was in Fedora 21 days??

It's well worth a try. I find the default drivers very good, and I work a lot with design/photography so I want the best image and colours.

Hi

Anyone stady at university ?

Anyone have a good guide for that?

No. I use Nouveau. I never installed anything else as the default worked out of the box. Some two years ago, in a less than new laptop. Just FYI

Anyone stady at university ?

Some of us study at university, yes. Why?

In europe zone??

Yup

Some of us study at university, yes. Why?

I used to xd

Well, not everyone. I think @gwindor is in our beloved Mother Russia... ?

I seach a university for stage

In security

Usually you have to take a career in Computer Sciences.
