It works just fine for me. What are the steps that you did?

I use nix so:

1. I installed OBS with all the plugins especially obs-vscapture
2. Run OBS and add Game Capture Source
3. Using lutris I enabled gamescope and changed the game resolution to something higher. I have a 1440p display so I tried 2560x1600 (16:10) to make sure I’m capturing it right.
4. Inside Lutris System Options game options tab I added OBS_VKCAPTURE and set it to 1.
5. When I run the game I can see gamescope is working as it’s projecting a 16:10 game onto my 16:9 screen.
6. Inside OBS I can see the game capture is working and when I select the Game Capture source it shows that it’s a bit too tall for my display.

Should be a similar thing for you, I would try something obvious like 16:10 first so you can get immediate visual feedback and then tweak your settings from there.

did you try this?

you need to capture the game not the gamescope instance.

You can use gamescope to set a higher or lower resolution and it’ll down or up scale it to your screen.

I presume you can use obs or something like that to record the raw footage before scaling.

AMD drivers for linux are simply superior in the same class. See the new Gamer’s Nexus video. The 9070xt beats the 5090 not just once.

The CPU matters, but the drivers on AMD support linux much better.

If you’ve got the dough a AMD 395 with 128GiB is the best thing you can get for mobile linux imo.

oh yes, this is true. it can do a lot of random stuff, I’ve had windows wipe encrypted drives as it thought it was doing me a favour before 🥹.

yoh can use rufus to make a windows to go usb (bootable windows USB) and then just wipe the windows partition.

I had a 3060 and the support for wayland was just terrible.

Loads of games didn’t work on proton or ran terribly.

Moment I switch to AMD on Linux I have not had any crashes, and games run out of the box with good performance.

Just my experience, there is no real reason why most people need nvidia GPUs on Linux. The vram is small, and prices often don’t compete well with AMD.

CUDA and other media stuff is usually a strawman as most people literally never it. If you need that desktop with SSH is much better value for money.

Tuxedo Computers ship Linux 😀

I’d recommend something AMD if you want fast and stable graphics drivers.

OpenWebUI has search integration as well as a lot of other features. It’s commonly used used ollama and shipped in a lot of images.

Have you tried using nix-hardware repo? They have some device specific configs that apply.

If you are, have you tried doing it “raw” in the configs instead?

Also if you are using an AMD CPU, smokeless UMAF has more BIOS options, and you can try enabling/disabling modern standby as well as a LOT of other power options.

Large amounts of debt.

you probably have adhd, source: literally me

you should use #!/usr/bin/env sh for better compability.

you shouldn’t need the bash if you have a proper shebang
