It's nice seeing another person who isn't a complete doomer that says using Nvidia on Linux is completely unusable and blah blah. I've been exclusively using Nvidia Wayland for months and the only issue has been Minecraft and day 1 helldivers 2 which required switching to DX11. Everything else worked just as well for everyone else as me.
Been using Linux for 18 years, with Nvidia the whole time, gaming since day one, now using Wayland with the 555.58 drivers, slight flickering in Steam itself but everything else is 100%.
The new driver not only fixed games but most electron apps and even the unity editor! sadly native firefox crashes and looking at the error is not clear who is doing the wrong thing, disabling hardware acceleration works around it
Floorp/Firedragon has been fine for me. I'd recommend switching over to that anyway; Mozilla has been pretty shady and Firefox just hasn't been keeping up with the times.
Sadly for me the crashes continue in firedragon :( tho it may not be the case for the OG authot. May nvidia gpu is like old but not enough to not be supported by the default drivers. Perhaps newer gpus have less problems. Tho indeed my problems were totally on browsers (both firefox-based and chrome-based) and I had a small one with steam games that wanted nouveau to be installed even if it was not used.
@@NickGamerShadow The crash only occurs if you are using patched kde with explicit sync support, you don't need it for the stutters to stop as long as you are using 555 it should be working fine
I have a gtx 1650 with intel cpu and when using wayland with driver 555+ there are issues when mangohud is enable, vmware wont load as well as some games, so can’t use mangohud on garuda linux with wayland and X11 every thing has become a laggy mess
Can you make a video on modding games on linux? im trying to switch to linux but i havent had much good luck finiding good information for modding on linux
@@ComradeFerret aah, useful to know. This is why I stick to AMD. I'm starting to get friends picking my brains over the move to Linux, and I believe most of them have Nvidia. I'll have to read up some more.
@@foznoth It's quite quickly becoming the case that it doesn't matter whether you're on Nvidia or AMD. Nvidia users just need to be aware that Wayland may not work for them if they're on a stable release distro or don't have the beta Nvidia driver installed, in which case they should use the X11 compositor.
Back on Garuda and hopefully forever until I get a new pc, which will also get the birb. So, I have a nvidia gpu and I both emulate and develop, so I kind of had to get the nvidia drivers. I really wish unironically the consumers could own the means of architecture and fabs because it would be a net loss for Nvidia, who I am convinced is the evil capitalist propaganda stereotype they told me not to worry about.
@@ComradeFerret Oh good, you reached out. Ok, here's the situation: I am working on translating the film via a Turkish website that only gives Turkish subtitles. Which I did around 30 minutes, I now have to translate an hour and an half. I'll try to get this done this month and once I'm ready, I'll let you know. Did you have any contact information which I reached out to you via email, Discord, etc? Other than that, that's it. What do you think?

Yeah, feels kinda weird with all the sponsored links on the homepage

@@NickGamerShadow You should have nouveau installed, yes. If your gpu is very old try installing an older version of the Nvidia drivers, maybe 470

Please make a lutris setup tutorial. I'm losing my mind.
It's all pretty straightforward, I replied to your other comment.

555 is a beta version, so hopefully it will be fixed for 560.
That's actually super nice, did you have do install xwayland?
I think Wine still relies on it. You'll want it anyhow, since there are still many apps without native Wayland support.

It works the same as it does in Windows: Put files in the right folder, or use Steam Workshop, MO2, etc.
Not sure on others, but Fedora 40 KDE ships with Wayland only, though it can be setup after with X11.
Yes, but Explicit Sync is not supported in that version.

Yo, what are those widgets that you have on your desktop that display your system info?
Conky, with a theme based on Minimalis that I've customized for myself.
@@ComradeFerret Thank you so much. Yours looks really good. I even set it up myself too. 👍

10:10 is that, legally safe, historically distinct stellaris/civ but for soviet history/culture?
I, I think I am in love.❤
More like a SimCity+Factorio with the dictatorship of the proletariat.
I whish we can play everygame on linux , most of the games I play is Rust and valorant and its not possible till no2
Yeah, that unfortunately won't change until the Rust devs remove Microsoft's girthy appendage from their throats.
@@ComradeFerret Rust on linux would run way way more better than linux especially lag wise
Is it possible to run garuda and windows by creating a partition for it ?
@@itsL0F1 Yes. Make sure you install Linux after Windows.
Apparently Rust can be run, but only connecting to non EAC servers, which are limited. There are a few reports regarding this on ProtonDB.
Hi comradeferret, if you're reading this comment, please reply back. Its about the pre-Khrushchev Lenin in 1918 film.
If you've got it, I'd be very thankful.
