As of November 22nd 2023, my experience with #Wayland#KDEPlasma on #Nvidia GPU is still atrocious, while on #AMD is almost flawless ... Seriously thinking swapping my RTX 3060 in my secondary PC with RX 6600 despite expecting slightly worse game performance ... Screw Nvidia ...
@weipah Doesn't wake up from sleep, doesn't overclock (on X it's fine). I know there is probably a workaround, but, heck, it does feel like linux 15 years ago, it's 2023. The worst think is roll-out panels when you click on widgets (like bluetooth on system panel, or app launcher) don't appear in about 50% of the cases, you have to keep hammering it repeatedly till they do.This makes the whole desktop experience a total mess.It happened after some tweaking as the widgets on the bottom panel were
@PeterSoukup for me things got better, when I moved to Manjaro "unstable" branch with the latest NVIDIA drivers and the 6.6 Kernel, also switching to Wayland helped with the multi-monitor support. But your issues sound more Plasma related somehow.
@weipah I'm on Arch 6.6.1 kernel, and 545.29 Nvidia driver. That is, I believe, the latest. I heard that Wayland works better on Nvidia/Gnome as well ... I've also heard a lot of issues related to Plasma/Wayland+Nvidia are supposed to be fixed in Plasma 6 ...
@PeterSoukup yep, same version here. Really weird. Only difference is that I use the NVIDIA only for gaming, everything else is rendered through the AMD APU.
@weipah Cool, that's interesting setup ... This is rig is more like spare parts splice - I had an older Intel based PC and a lot of #GPUs lying around left from 2021 #crypto craze, not my first choice and only occasionally used in my 2nd home. I love ray tracing, but I would still rather go with AMD, I dislike #Nvidia that much 😎. I still game at Full HD only and for the games that support so far, my RX 6700 XT performace with #raytracing is sufficient.
@weipah The only games that are actually worth playing on Nvidia for me is #Crysis 2 and 3 remastered, to get a maxed ray tracing performance, an upscale is necessary on both RX6700 and RTX 3060, and since the games only support DLSS 2 officially (or FSR 1 through Proton) with DLSS 2 it looks little bit better ...
