Can you file a bug? Seems to be stable here on Windows Nvidia DXVK and Proton Experimental, though I didn't play extensively.


You...

[aufkrawall]

Well, this is not really an option, unless you're in cryo-freeze or a turtle with extraordinary life expectation....

[aufkrawall]

Then this would be a devestating blow to AMD's FOSS strategy. I don't think being that pessimistic is justified (yet). The lack of communication is worrying...

[aufkrawall]

I'd assume that they have an internal (PAL) branch (as it's developed behind the fence...) with RT support and so far they have only made it public precompiled...

[aufkrawall]

Yes, my impression is that in terms of CPU shader compile speed, ACO and Nvidia are closer than ACO and amdvlk-pro are. When you play Heroes of the Storm...

[aufkrawall]

Also native Vulkan games regress an awful lot with amdvlk-open. I suppose Michael's benchmark systems have rather populated DXVK state caches, so ACO...

[aufkrawall]

Well, on Windows you are actually forced to use the -pro driver with API wrappers, as AMD's D3D11 driver is bad and D3D9 driver terrible. ...

[aufkrawall]

I suppose it is still a complete niche for content creation/workstation and GPU compute. Might even apply to most recent Android versions and ecosystem,...

[aufkrawall]

amdvlk probably regressed (it does so hard and often). What a pathetic display of AMD, I expect them to be stubborn and unteachable and to continue with...

[aufkrawall]

It's pointless: In the vast majority of titles, amdvlk-open either is slower or similarly fast at best, while it has far more bugs, limitations and still...

[aufkrawall]

Yes, we've all been under the impression that there were only sane and reasonable Phoronix members until this christened debate. This event marks a sad...

[aufkrawall]

Funny that there are specialized new extensions for better present stats (if I got that right), while it is obvious to the bare eye that amdvlk can't...

[aufkrawall]

Except that FSR produces an over-sharpened look and is useless apart from 4k displays with UQ preset, whereas DLSS 2.x is usable with 1440p display and...

[aufkrawall]

The best driver for ~1% of Radeon owners (Linux users). This is so great and so wrong at the same time. AMD, why...
Congrats @Timur and the others...

[aufkrawall]

I suspect this attitude to be part of the problem....

[aufkrawall]

So many potential Gnome users hate the file picker and Nautilus, but they probably haven't reached rock bottom regarding user loss yet. Though I don't...

[aufkrawall]

Thanks for noticing. Indeed I've recently sold my 6800 and bought the least overpriced 3060 I could get. Though my motivation wasn't Linux, I currently...

[aufkrawall]

A few weeks ago it already stopped working for me with 5.13 (also the driver from the pro package), the devil knows why. I've simply given up on it, screw...

[aufkrawall]

Not a fan of the Nvidia Linux driver, but they managed proper fifo vsync for their Vulkan driver. Unlike AMD, who simply don't care for fifo vsync being...

[aufkrawall]

Looks like all the noise about big changes in the Nvidia Linux driver world was rather blown out of proportion.
