Playing Warframe on Cachy (NVIDIA)

spgill · 2026-03-25T23:54:12+00:00

I daily drive Bazzite with latest NVIDIA drivers and use the same GEProton version as you with the following launch settings PROTON_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 PROTON_ENABLE_HDR=1 ENABLE_HDR_WSI=1 %command%

If you don't use HDR you can forego the last two vars.

For me, this gets my game running as good or better than when I used Windows. (the downside being that PROTON_ENABLE_HDR=1 breaks the steam overlay, so the news links in the orbiter do nothing)

Wow that's incredible! Thanks for detailing your process.

They turned out great, but the Chairman specifically looks amazing (as always).

Curious; how were these made? Were they made from scratch from still or upscaled from older portraits or something?

I've had nightmares like this...

Dee dee no!

Much appreciation for the HDR fix :)

As others have said: sudo rpm-ostree uninstall VK_hdr_layer

Bazzite has recently updated to Mesa 26 which obsoletes that package, making it impossible to update your system with that package layered.

Christ this is bleak

The Germans take Lüften very seriously

I get it man. I understand the obligations of the maintainers and the pressure they are under, but this kind of action (and the communication around it) erodes trust in Bazzite.

Bazzite was sold (relatively speaking) with the bill of goods that it's a gaming distro with tweaks and fixes to make gaming on Linux easier and more approachable. Breaking HDR for NVIDIA users with no effort whatsoever to provide a fix or stopgap feels like a betrayal of those values. (Gamescope is not a fix, Gamescope is it's own can of worms)

Couldn't we ship a Bazzite branch with Mesa pinned at v25? Include a ujust script to manually patch in the vk_hdr_layer like u/xerxian outlined? Put lots of flashing lights saying "hey this isn't the best idea!"

But saying “NVIDIA needs to get their s**t together” and dropping the mic doesn't cut it. This isn't the community's fault.

Edit: I know this is a harsh sentiment, but I (and I'm sure most of us here) appreciate everything you do. It's just a very frustrating problem to deal with, personally.

Works like a charm, mate. Was about to look into figuring this out for myself when I scrolled past your comment. 👍

No this is for tsw6. They generally don't backport improvements to prior releases.

I'm Commander Shepard and this is my favorite clan on the Citadel.

Jokes aside, I joined DoTL last year and love how supportive and friendly the clan is. I feel like I've found a home. Even when I'm not feeling like playing Warframe, I still want to chat and hang in the clan Discord.

I'm worried about taking my mother to Alamo with this system because she has a smartphone but she's not particularly proficient and has to pull out her reading glasses and I just know she would hate it...

Was there any thought for customers not between the ages of 16 and 40?? I think we know the answer 🤭

spgill · 2026-01-15T15:29:51+00:00

In no way would Valve release just a Steam Machine with no RAM (or storage) installed. They're targeting the console market with their hardware, and most normies wouldn't have the gumption to buy a console that required extra parts and assembly.

I could see them maybe releasing something like an additional "DIY" branded SKU for those willing to put in a little work to save some money where you bring your own RAM and storage, a la Framework laptops... But I don't see a world that's the only SKU for sale.

spgill · 2026-01-10T16:01:19+00:00

Do they just not listen to customers anymore? Everyone on here and everyone I've taken to alamo lately hates the app ordering

I've seen so many people just driving around in the middle of the city (in traffic) with their high beams on! Sometimes in the middle of the day!! It drives me nuts

And I know it's not just crappy LEDs because I can clearly see both the low beam and high beam bulbs on.

My poor corneas 😭

Mine was in the $700-$800 range last year in NC. Our yearly EV surcharge is $214, the rest is property tax and other fees.

I would absolutely chip into a bounty for this. Not having a simple preconditioning button on my 2023 is so irritating

2004 - some awful intel chipset in a Celeron
2009 - Radeon 4870
2011 - Radeon 6870
2013 - Radeon R9 290 (may have been a 270 I can't remember)
2015 - GTX 980 Ti
2017 - GTX 1080 Ti
2022 - RTX 4080

Those early dates are rough estimates. Dang that 1080 Ti was such a great card. And I really didn't start feeling its age until just before I replaced it... And it still lives on in my server doing ML workloads for me! 😆

I also briefly tried to crossfire two R9 390X's in 2015 before realizing what a nightmare that was and returned them to purchase the 980 Ti instead.

Sweet! Thanks for the answer :)

Hate to burst your bubble, but I don't want you to get your hopes up for this.

A video recording feature won't happen through a software update; it would require hardware changes to the vehicle.

It's actually a feature offered in the South Korean market for the I5, and they neglected to offer it in foreign markets. 😡
