Comment on Microsoft rolls Windows Recall out to the public nearly a year after announcing it
dtrain@lemmy.world 1 day agoShit , I just installed oblivion reboot and worked on day 1 without issues in popOS.
Gaming is such a nonissue on Linux now
It’s a non issue for most games, which is great but every now and then there’s a game that’s too tightly integrated into windows (like phasmophobia and it using the cortan API of all things for voice chat) or one that relies on an incompatible anti cheat system.
The Linux community need to figure out a new friendly standard to ensure anti cheat without out needing to act like a backdoor to the root kernel. I wish I was smart enough to help with that sort of stuff.
I think Valve and Arch are working on that with their collab on the secure signing enclave.
NVIDIA drivers finally behaving well?
Last tried gaming on Linux Mint 2 years ago faced a lot of graphic glitches, full screen issues, pointer issues.
Finally gave up.
I had NVIDIA gpu though
No nvidia issues in mint for the past two years that I have been using it
Yeah, I’m on a 3080ti and don’t have issues with the drivers in the pop store
NVIDIA GTX is still a crapshoot if you wanted to play games on an older system (at least with modern desktop environments that use wayland) and RTX is going to be fine for most things unless you wanted to use Steam Gaming Mode on bazzite (because it was built with AMD in mind and uses APIs that the equivalent in the nvidia drivers are buggy - but they seem to not matter when in games because devs make them work on both cards or have just accidentally avoided those APIs - I’m guessing that’s the reason - I think it’s vulkan related iirc)
I switched two Months ago to Mint and have no issues with a 1070. Even G sync works :)

I’d have to disagree that it’s a non issue it’s definitely improved, but I still come across little irritations that pop up on Linux but not Windows games.
