motherfucking yeah
I AM IN X
after compiling my own kernel, and patching my nvidia drivers to match it, compiling them, compiling the kernel modules, fixing some stuff there as well, and rebooting half a million times in the process of figuring out what the fuck was wrong
I have never before been so happy to see a pure black screen (xmonad which is awaiting proper customization)
@metagorgon said: are you using the open source nvidia reconstruction? nouveau, iirc?
No, because nvidia is evil and doesn’t let nouveau devs use their properly-working code and thus nouveau is crap for maxwell cards. This computer is going to run games for J every now and then so having a working high-performance 3d driver is vital for nuking windows from this household.
@metagorgon said: you compiled the drivers though? did you somehow get source, or disassemble or decompile them?
I compiled the kernel module for the drivers, after patching some of the necessary files to get it to work. The drivers themselves are the binary blob with grsec patches slapped on top, don’t ask me how exactly they work that’s not my job.

metagorgon said: the most annoying thing about games on wine in my recent experience is the audio breaking occasionally and playing 2x or 3x faster with constant crackle. something about sample width in pulseaudio, i believe. my new distro is running straight alsa, but i haven’t tried for games yet.
