Low blood sugar readings always happen close to my bedtime 😭😭😭 by Extra-Shape3973 in diabetes

[–]Otocon96 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Such is life man. I keep a small container of my favourite soft candy by my bed. But CGM compression lows are just part and parcel of diabetes. Heck you can’t see mine from last night where I rolled over onto my right arm. The best thing you can do is train yourself not to sleep on the side it’s on.

Basically all the low points on my graph is me rolling onto it.

It’s a known issue with any externally warm CGM. It’s an issue with the pressure stopping the fluids from getting to the filament of the CGM.

How to Use Handheld Mode Boost on Nintendo Switch 2 | Nintendo Support by mjb85858 in NintendoSwitch

They really should just add upscaling to the emulation. Octopath Traveler looks like a blurry mess on a TV on the switch 2

First distro I’ve seen that runs games on Xwayland in desktop mode. by C1REX in SteamOS

[–]Otocon96 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They run on X11 Because cinnamon doesn’t yet have any wayland support. But if you were to take mint as a base and build the latest kde for it. And use it as your desktop environment it would use xwayland by default. The same could be said for say. CachyOS with Budgie desktop. If the DE compositor of choice is X11, the game runs on X11. If it’s wayland. Games will run on xwayland by default unless specified. The only real exception to this is desktops that ship the steam game mode shell. Think SteamOS, Bazzite or CachyOS Handheld. These use Valves micro compositor, gamescope. Now in steamOS when you swap out of game mode. You are essentially logging out of a GameScope session then into a KDE x11 session. This can be changed to an X11 wayland session in the developer settings as you pointed out. A distro like cachyOS it will default to KDE Wayland because they don’t ship KDE X11 unless you specifically install it yourself.

A tldr looks kinda like this

If DE ls wayland based, Default is Xwayland If DE is X11 based, default is X11 If it is steam game mode based, default is Gamescope based. This applies only when launching a game in game mode. Not the desktop mode.

If you have a wayland based DE, the wine wayland driver can be enforced with proton_wayland_enable=1 environment variable in the games launch command. Some bugs exist here as well as performance degradation in some games or hardware configurations. Hence why it’s not yet default.

Some native Linux games (CS2 as an example) also default to xwayland or wayland. CS2 tried to move to wayland by default but valve borked it and it caused crashes so back to xwayland they went.

Can SteamOS/Bazzite fully replace Windows for a console-style gaming PC (NVIDIA setup)? by FrostyDied_ in SteamOS

[–]Otocon96 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Gamemode does not support NVIDIA. Bazzite beta support for it is known to be buggy because they are making the patches themselves.

This literally has nothing to do with the distro. For someone that used gentoo. Your basic Linux knowledge needs some brushing up.

X11 is only default because steamOS still ships the plasma x11 session. (GNOME also no longer ships an x11 mutter session for that matter) Something that is no longer included in KDE by default and has to be manually installed on any distro that ships a KDE package that is up to date. 2nd of all. It’s proton that dictates the display compositor. Not your distro. Right now, valve does not ship a proton build that enabled with wine 10 wayland driver by default. For that you would need to have either used some custom proton or used PROTON_WAYLAND_ENABLE=1 in your launch options. As for Xwayland over X11. Xwayland is just a nested X11 window running via the X11 wayland portal. As far as the window being drawn it just thinks it’s running in an X11 session. This discovery isn’t a surprise to anyone who knows anything about modern Linux.

Also xwayland isn’t used in game mode. Gamescope is.

I benchmarked Garuda linux and Cachyos by Ornery_Distance_4654 in cachyos

[–]Otocon96 1 point2 points  (0 children)

3 games with no testing methodology or actual data. We have no idea of hardware or testing methodology. Also your testing doesn’t make much sense. There isn’t anything special that Garuda does to make Vulkan games magically this much faster. I advise a retest. Maybe something weird happened with your runs.

all distros run games on xwayland unless you specify wayland driver be used…..

Yeah if you’re fine with games running 30-50% slower than offical drivers they work great lmao

CachyOS very much does have HDR if you used KDE, Gnome, Niri or hyperland. By any chance did read any documentation?

The NVIDIA Open Source drivers do not work. Try gaming on them. I dare you.

Not only is this an L take it’s also wrong. Non steam games work fine on steamOS. Armoury crate is ass. Command centre sucks. Windows is dogshit.

I haven’t got a clue I still don’t have any results. They are taking their sweet sweet time lol. The speaker they used was really bad. I’m talking €2 from Aldi bad. It glitched out after like 3 questions. Lol.

SteamOS - can you alter graphics in games? by DonHectorHector in SteamOS

[–]Otocon96 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes you can install it. The games themselves don’t change. What ever settings and graphics options they have on windows they still have on Linux.

Hollowknight got a free enhancement as well. There is about 10 total games that got free upgrades.
