LookingGlass VS CherryTree

Unfortunately AMD cards suffer from a reset bug, still.

The reset bug being that you can pass through the card fine, once. But if you try to pass it through again (or the card experiences an issue and needs to reset), they get caught in some kind of bad state and won’t work until power is removed and restored. Which requires a reboot or a only slightly less disruptive dance with system power states.

For vega and 5000 series gpu’s, there’s https://github.com/gnif/vendor-reset

Incidentally, nvidia gpus are so good at resetting, they’ve probably done so without you noticing. If the screen ever goes black for a fraction of a second and returns in normal usage, it was probably because it reset itself.

The lower 6000 series lower than the 6800’s for example may or may not have the issue. It seems most “reference” cards are fine, but custom vendor cards often but not always have issues. My reference 6700 works fine, but a sapphire 6700 probably won’t.

And the 7000 series is also fucky in a new way somehow. Gnif knows far more about this than me, and has basically thrown up his hands at how AMD doesn’t care. He’s made occasional posts about it on https://forum.level1techs.com/

Gnif is also responsible for Looking glass: https://github.com/gnif/LookingGlass

You could try LookingGlass. That may require two GPUs.

It's a pair of apps, one runs on a Windows virtual machine, the other on the host OS, that uses shared memory to copy a passed-through GPUs frame buffer. Runs fast enough to get 4k/120fps very low latency, so if you have a spare GPU you can game on it in Windows, from a Linux desktop. https://github.com/gnif/LookingGlass

Check out https://github.com/gnif/LookingGlass if you can accept a separate window.

then everything looks normal. It's all up to EGL though, as looking-glass really doesn't have any code that handles image scaling (see here).

https://github.com/Arc-Compute/LibVF.IO/tree/master/ plus https://github.com/gnif/LookingGlass works pretty well. If you use an Intel GPU, particularly one of their new Arc dedicated GPUs, it supports the functionality on the consumer grade hardware without any trickery and you just need Looking Glass to map the outputs.

I'd like to introduce you to Looking Glass as a much higher quality and lower latency alternative to NDI when you are trying to relay frames between virtual machines within the same computer. With a patched nvidia driver to enable nvfbc on the gaming VM there is almost zero performance penalty when capturing gameplay. It also has options for audio, which I don't use because they didn't exist when I was configuring my system. I have a similar use case (gaming and streaming) and hardware (5950X + two gpus). I am not using proxmox, however. My configuration using QEMU and libvirt has this XML:

What stopping from tagging a stable release? The milestone has no open issues.

I am started using CherryTree. (There is a screenshot here.)

I wonder if an extensible editor (example: Atom) could do both of those things with Markdown files. Assuming by styling you mean things like being able to highlight and custom-style some text, even in a typically text-only view of a markdown file. It wouldn't be a big surprise if that could be done...somehow. Collapsible points ought to be doable for sure.

Personally I use other methods for styling within markdown, for example emoji, tags, link formatting with brackets (for things that are not really links), etc.

I also take any list that's longer than 8-10 items and break it up by category or reorganize it so it's less visually overwhelming.

Otherwise you may find it helpful to look into more rich-editor-style notetaking solutions like cherrytree or Notecase Pro. The latter is proprietary but I used it for years and was very happy with it. Good luck in your search.

I'm kinda surprised no one mentioned cherrytree yet.

cherrytree

I use FocusWriter. It's a lightweight, full-screen app that does more than enough for a manuscript. I used to use Google Docs with Wavemaker, which has a lot of extra functions like cards and timelines, etc. Docs slowed down a lot with a lot of open windows or really long docs, however. And with WFH the sync isn't that important to me anymore. For notes lately I've been using CheeryTree. All these are free.

CherryTree for a general note-taking database. As an Application Packager I can't remember PowerShell scripts I wrote two weeks ago, so saving my recipes in here is priceless.

How do you keep track of/document everything? I have been using Cherry Tree. It is a fancy open source note taking program that lets you keep notes in a tree like structure.
