Since using Reshade for basic tweaks on colors is genuinely too annoying (at least for me, plus, backing up every game config is a bit a pain in the ass), I made this vulkan layer for color grading (brightness, shadows, hue, rgb, saturation, vibrance, contrast, gamma, etc.) that has real-time reloading, so you don't need to restart the game, and well its super lightweight.

But since well, Vulkan is Vulkan, i'd really appreciate if someone could test it on their end and leave a feedback :p

To me it seem risky and the game work fine without it. Game is battlefront 2 (2018)

While I know partitioning is a very personal affair, I would like to ask for ideas on the partitioning scheme of my 1 TiB Gen 4 NVMe SSD.

My current rig is

- MSI B550-A Pro

- 32 GiB DDR4 at 3200MHz

- 5700X3D

- Radeon RX 6700XT

- Gen 4 NVMe 1TiB

My starting idea is to use Logical Volume Management (LVM), where I would to try a few different base OSs.

In my current install of CachyOS, I was lazy and formatted the NVMe to use the same partition. I don't like that.

Furthermore, I would like to have the ability to try different OSs and have my user in each of them to share the same /home/${user} mount. And have a dedicated swap partition.

I would like also to have a dedicated device mounted as /home/${user}/games where I can put my SteamLibrary. I could get another NVMe for my motherboard, but it only has one Gen 4 NVMe bay and getting a 1 or 2 TiB Gen 3 NVMe does not seem like the best approach to me because I am setting up a NAS in my network where I want to use to store the documents on my /home/${user} over at a 2.5 Gbps Ethernet connection.

What would you suggest in this scenario?

I've noticed that in Crimson Desert in CachyOS turning in FSR Frame Generation doesn't make the game more "fluid" (sorry if this isn't the best term, english is not my native language), compared to Windows where the difference is visible. Like for example on Cachy 60FPS native and 120FPS generated feels the same.

I'm using an 9070XT, FSR 4.1 NativeAA.

I know that using frame gen is a bit controversial, but I don't feel the drawbacks (input lag or whatever) and this is a single player game.

I'm running Fedora KDE 43
NVIDIA 5080
9800X3D

4k OLED 240HZ

PSA: I'm still learning about the Linux world lol

I cannot change the powermizer settings on NVIDIA X Server Settings. When I select the PowerMizer tab, I see the option to change it, but it then immediately disappears.

A lot of my games run great, but then I boot up that same game some other day and the performance dips pretty bad. Now it doesn't go back to the great performance it once had. I don't know if its shaders processing in the background, but I do let the Vulkan Shaders fully download on startup. I'm not sure why, but I usually notice my GPU utilization also dropped, so I am assuming its my GPU performance mode that may be causing the issue. On Windows I get easily over 120+ FPS.

The performance overlay is for Death Stranding Directors Cut (Platinum on ProtonDB.) I used to get 120+ FPS. Now its below that, especially once I start moving around, I get dips to 30FPS. Game is running Proton Experimental. I've also tried GE and Cachy OS.

And yes, its running on my GPU and not iGPU.

Launch options: mangohud gamemoderun %command%

When I run:

nvidia-settings -q [gpu:0]/GPUPowerMizerMode

I get:

Attribute 'GPUPowerMizerMode' ([gpu:0]): 0.

Valid values for 'GPUPowerMizerMode' are: 0, 1 and 2.

'GPUPowerMizerMode' can use the following target types: GPU.

Also, my CPU governor is on power save:
cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq/scaling_governor

powersave

Obviously have the options for "performance":

cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_available_governors

performance powersave

When running a game I get this:
gamemoded -s
gamemode is active

Attaching this incase it helps:

The Issue

For some reason, some textures are just super blurry on my setup, but I'm not sure what the issue is. This goes across all games. No Man's Sky appears notably strange as well, where clouds on planets even from a distance appear very blurry.

Setup

Ryzen 9 9950x3d

AMD Radeon 9070 xt Nitro+ (Sapphire)

MSI ACE MAX x870e Motherboard

• Wifi driver is unsupported actually, I used mediatek-mt7927-dkms, but I doubt that'd cause the texture problem :P

Linux Stack

• Arch Linux
• Dank Material Shell w/ Niri (notably uses Wayland)

Troubleshooting

• Attempted to switch graphics APIs (DX11, DX12, Vulkan), no difference
• Enabled x3D support for CPU in BIOS, no difference
• Installed extra libraries others have mentioned could be missing, no difference
• Verified AMDGPU is in use (result of lspci):

​

7c:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Granite Ridge [Radeon Graphics] (rev c9) Subsystem: Micro-Star International Co., Ltd. [MSI] Device 7e85 Kernel driver in use: amdgpu Kernel modules: amdgpu

• Verified Mesa is installed
• Changed proton versions between hotfix & experimental
• Reset monitor settings
• Verified packages are up to date

Ever since the "classic" Mesa drivers got retired, it seems like adaptive V-sync was pruned along with it. I decided to give the Amber branch with the i965 driver a try on an ancient laptop, and I was surprised to see tearing manifest in some games despite V-sync being on, but only when performance was low, consistent with adaptive V-sync. It turns out that the games were requesting a missing feature I wasn't cognizant of all this time. Indeed, its debut in Mesa was reported by Phoronix way back, predating the Intel Gallium drivers by half a decade.

Have there been any attempts to bring this feature back?

Finally! I managed to get Crimson Desert running on Linux (Bazzite OS). I used the latest Proton from CatchyOS, with the following settings:

VKD3D_CONFIG=descriptor_heap PROTON_VKD3D_HEAP=1 %command%

So far, it works! And it even runs better than on Windows!

I have an Nvidia 5080 RTX graphics card and was able to enable every possible setting: “cinematic” graphics mode, ray tracing, DLSS 4.5L, frame generation, path tracing...

In 4K, the result is better than on Windows: it’s smoother, with fewer small stutters.

My only issue so far is that sometimes, for no apparent reason, the game gets permanently stuck at the vortex. We’ll see.

Gaming on Linux is really starting to get very, very interesting!

just a super small personal project i made, been playing DayZ for a long time on Linux (but this works for all games) where i always used a crosshair dot overlay on windows, and always use nvidia filters for gamma adjustment (nights are very very dark on DayZ).
Simple very small app that puts a dot center screen without any gamescope dependancy, and a commandline argument to increase gamma.
