Are you using those schedutil patches still? That was breaking the build with 5.4-rc1/rc2 for me as well. Without them, compiles just fine....

uid313 is right. It took me until yesterday to realize why Tweaks was glitching on 3.34. Turned out the default window size is too small when it first...

Big thanks to both of you. I'm finally up and running. The intel_pstate=passive was what I was missing! I did some light gaming and multitasking on the...

Compiled for me on 5.3.2 as well, failed on 5.4-rc1. Thanks for the tip on x86_energy_perf_policy (and the zstd patch!)

Question for you...

Thanks for that update, I'm gonna stick with /u/ernstp's Mesa ACO PPA for now then. Been using it since it came out and it's been rock solid. Appreciate...

Yeah I have:

myusername  -  nice  -20

Gotcha, my bad. Yeah that makes sense. I thought in the context of what we were talking about you were trying to squeeze latency/priority but I misre...
