everyones just like, “10 years of experience”…nobody is hiring people without experience so people without experience cant get experience…i dont get it…
Can you post the result of the env command as well? It sounds like your config is very minimal, but the fact that it’s looking for a local Unix socket in the strace output is weird.
Unless your program doesnt have a flatpak or appimage just avoid deb as sometimes they are behind flatpak. I noticed this in the discover store for kde plasma for example. Plus flatpaks and appimages are the future as they support all distributions instead of mainly just debian-based ones.
Quick tip for the author and those reading, instead of doing as in the article noted e.g. sudo nano or the like, you can use https://man.archlinux.org/man/sudo.8#e (or sudo -e). The advantage of this is that it will use whatever you have configured as an editor (through $SUDO_EDITOR, $VISUAL or $EDITOR), and will use your configuration files while editing instead of root’s, meaning if you have a sick custom neovim or emacs setup you don’t have to keep those settings files in sync with the root account. ;)
I used to think that, too. But even Ubuntu and Debian are very different operating systems now.
On the other hand, it’s all Linux under the hood, and almost all computing tasks can be done on almost any distro.
Finally, almost all distros exist because people choose to maintain them as a hobby without payment.
Who am I to judge whether they should pool their resources on fewer distros in their free time?
I drink and doomscroll in mine.
I’ve not experienced the first issue, so I don’t have a great deal of input for that. Could be a display specific behaviour.
For 2, I’ve had the Steam UI hang on occasion, though this has not occurred recently. I’ll try to see if I can get this to repro again.
For 3, there’s a few things worth bearing in mind here. AMDGPU and the Windows Radeon KMD don’t really have a lot on common. I’d be interested in any perf comparisons you have between the two systems even with the default mclk on linux. I find that Fedora is more performant in somewhat surprising scenarios, like with CP2077, Halo Infinite.
For 4, I could show you how to leverage the powerplay sysfs interface and run this via systemd service at login if you’d like?
Unfortunately have no input on 5 as I use Firefox but I hope you find a solution.
1.) IDK, this issue tends to manifest for me with different distros as well sometimes. Forgot to mention that it also happens if monitors go to sleep when inactive and on wake up the 2nd screen sometimes does not wake. That’s why I disabled sleep for monitors.
2.) So far works fine after disabling HW acceleration
4.) no need to waste both of ours time. The script now works fine but thanks for offer. I don’t even know what half of your sentence means :D
3.) On Windows I use MPT to further modify the cards behaviour like SOC voltages, clock, FCLK clock, TDC limits and power limits, etc… Basically I can easily squeeze 10% on top of the typical overclocking available via MSI Afterburner or AMD Adrenaline SW. #73rd place in TimeSpy for GPU score which is kinda ridiculous for air cooled card
Cyberpunk likes to draw a lot of current so my tweaks help alleviate the throttling caused by it in typical OC scenarios as the card hits current limit in the CP2077 benchmark more often than it hits the actual power limit. That’s why the lows on Linux are worse, it’s not related to CPU underperforming. I’d suspect that the lows would be actually better if I could uncap GPU TDC current limit on Linux. Averages would be likely still lower vs Windows due to lack of VRAM OC.
This is not really comparable and I would have to do proper test on both Windows and Linux with the same versions of the game but I’ve tested with the same settings which are FOV = 100, SSR = Low (because it performs like crap on higher settings for no visual benefit), everything else maxed out.
This is screenshot from the run I did in February with my Windows OC… (also had worse CPU and memory tune back then vs what I run now so results would be slightly better now as well).
Would be interesting to keep the same game versions and GPU,CPU,DRAM tune and do a direct comparison but I can’t really be bothered right now to mess with that. What’s important to me that it’s roughly in the same ballpark and there are no massive swings in performance so unless I keep a close eye on monitoring I can hardly tell a difference when playing.
