If only we had a fix for the crazy performance discrepancy that pops up when running DX12 + RTX titles!

A1RM4X - DirectX 12 and ray tracing are broken on Linux? Wukong benchmarks results - Windows vs Linux

Nothing major, just lots and lots of browser toolbars in the XP era and contact with some trojans (especially on torrents) that were thankfully caught by the antiviruses available back then.

What issues are you aware people have been experiencing?

I’m currently running 555.52.04 (this driver’s beta release) on F40 + GNOME Wayland and Firefox has been working flawlessly. Video playback using PiP has also improved a lot for me although IDK if it’s related to explicit sync or Wayland itself. Before installing these drivers I was using X and that feature would annihilate my desktop’s performance.

Hmmm, now I get it, thank you!

I’m aware there are problems with the way their survey works, but I don’t see how that’s the case…

To me it seems like it’s done on a monthly basis by selecting a random pool of users and prompting them to participate by collecting stats at that moment, only once they opt into it.

AFAIK the data is not aggregated over a certain period of time (i.e. “a year”)

If the latest Steam survey is anything to go by, it’s actually lower of a percentage when it comes to gaming, representing 1.94% of the market. The stats mentioned in the article come from StatCounter which monitors web traffic.

You can’t deny their support for Wayland has been steadily improving with the latest driver releases. In fact it’s already in a good state if it weren’t for the flickering in certain applications caused by these issues with explicit sync which are currently being addressed.

That’s true, but thankfully it’s already been merged in mutter and is underway in kwin.

The code for GNOME has already been merged, KDE has a merge request open for it too, Mesa also already has it merged in.
