I sure do love NVIDIA drivers
Rebooted, and it works, but now my main screen is flashing black constantly. Changing it back to 60Hz fixes that. So looks like the Plasma bug with screens at different Hz is back.
@gamingonlinux NVK soon (well I hope so...) ๐Ÿ˜‹
@gamingonlinux that is actually due to your device not being supported by the power daemon or so ;)
@gamingonlinux It has nvidia-powerd.srvc so I assume this is a laptop? I am having issues on mine too. It either doesn't work or gives weird wattages which makes fps unstable. I have disabled it for now.
@io_srvc no, desktop
@gamingonlinux why do you have it enabled then? ><, isn't nvidia-powerd.srvc for dynamic boost on optimus laptops?
@io_srvc ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ i followed all the normal Fedora instructions for nvidia and i guess that comes with it

@gamingonlinux Did you use rpmfusion or the .run file from nvidia? Also disable the service since you don't need it.

I used this script for installing nvidia stuff on fedora

https://github.com/t0xic0der/nvidia-auto-installer-for-fedora-linux

Fedora was giving me issues after 6.2.11 kernel (constant freezes) so I'm no longer using it.

@io_srvc rpmfusion
@gamingonlinux Ah nvidia-powerd.srvc does come with that. Not a big issue as like I said you can disable it since you aren't even using it.
@io_srvc hmmm best way to disable?

@gamingonlinux

sudo systemctl stop nvidia-powerd.service

sudo systemctl disable nvidia-powerd.service

@gamingonlinux Switching to AMD was one of the best decisions I made, given the linux support.

Sure, they're not the strongest GPUs (but they're not far behind at all), but the linux support is very good.

@gamingonlinux If I was interested in RTX or DLSS though, and on windows, Nvidia would have still be my choice... or maybe not, given the ridiculous prices they're entertaining.

@cmdrDiscoCat @gamingonlinux

I actually switched to Nvidia since all of the high quality graphics applications did not run on my AMD GPU. 
(I had shader programming at the uni, no chance to get it to work on AMD... Switched to Nvidia and it worked out of the box)

@13reak @gamingonlinux afaik shaders work just fine on amd too, many games and engine use them ?

Unless it somehow uses CUDA, but shaders (or compute shaders) don't use that.

@cmdrDiscoCat @gamingonlinux

I can just tell you what happened.
AMD: black screen for 2-4 weeks, I was going mad. Tried everything. Tossed the AMD GPU out and...
Nvidia: worked out of the box, same code.

Only thing I have to mention: the open source drivers for Nvidia are horrible but the closed source stuff works.

@13reak @gamingonlinux sure, but which shader language ? Which tool ? You wrote ATI : how many years ago was it ? :)
@gamingonlinux One of the biggest pain points of running linux as your primary os right there ๐Ÿ˜ซ
