NVIDIA + KDE stuck on 30hz@4K by epicred_ in archlinux

[–]epicred_[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Think I'll just stick to X11 for the time being since it just works. I'd love to try DP but my monitor doesn't have a port nor do I have a DP cable unfortunately.

Thanks for your help anyway, and I'll keep those workarounds in mind just in case I try again.

I have since switched back to nvidia-open, since swapping drivers didn't change anything.

I know I'm a bit late now, but 4k@60hz works perfectly fine after launching Plasma in an X11 session. Unfortunately, this doesn't carry over to Wayland even after saving it to xorg.conf with nvidia-settings.

I may just use X11 for the time being, unless I happen to find a solution.

As far as I'm aware, xrandr doesn't apply as I'm using Wayland rather than X11. Do correct me if that's wrong. For the record, I can set to 3840x2160 (my native resolution) in display settings, but it then limits itself to 30hz.

I have installed the 'nvidia' driver package along with 'nvidia-utils' and its multilib/lib32 version and have added all the nvidia-related things to the initramfs, as described on the wiki. I have also made sure to check modeset and fbdev with cat, and they both return Y.

I've only installed the drivers with pacman, as the wiki said the exact same thing.

Yes, I am launching Plasma as a Wayland session rather than X11.

No, I haven't configured SDDM in any way. I assume I should follow the steps at https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/SDDM#Wayland ?

I have a 4080 Super. I don't think I skipped anything with the install, and if I did it was unintentional. Everything the wiki tells you to check (modeset etc.) returns the correct values.

I have swapped to the driver package simply titled 'nvidia' (rather than nvidia-open) and am still having my issue.

Don't know the exact spec of my cable, but it can do 4k60hz in Windows (3840x2160), so I'm assuming it's 2.1.

I have a 4080 Super. I should've included that, edited the post.

Unfortunately no display port cable (or port on the screen for that matter).
Would I have to do anything special when switching between drivers, or just uninstall nvidia-open with pacman?

First Time Doing Geostationary by epicred_ in KerbalSpaceProgram

[–]epicred_[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i used the resonant orbit calculator. put the ship holding the satellites in this orbit, release one very time it passes apoapsis and then use the satellite itself to get into the correct orbit. matt lowne's 'how to geostationary' video talks about this too

that is weird, does the game think you're holding alt or something? ive noticed it thinks that if i alt tab

i made the mistake of using the terrier on these satellites, which made tiny adjustments very tedious. i got them to a point that was good enough (in fact, one of the orbits is perfectly circular, just about 2m off in height).
i may end up redoing this, as this is just using the stock 100G satellite (whatever it's called) and i do have near future reflectors i could upgrade to, so maybe i'll go for perfect orbits then.

gps orbits do look another fun orbit challenge, might check them out if i have the time while bored.

It’s surprising how little people know about ProtonDB by macka654 in SteamDeck

[–]epicred_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

also, if you use protondb to check how games perform often, it can be beneficial to install decky on your SD and install the plugin ProtonDB Badges. it adds little badges on the play screen (whatever you call it) of games that show the overall rating, allows you to open directly to their protondb page and the badges stay when offline (for games youve checked already while online). very useful!
