compute-runtime VS syngesture

Well... Fuck! https://github.com/intel/compute-runtime/issues/643

For what it's worth, I was able to get IOMMU enabled and iGPU passthrough working for Plex on an Ubuntu 22.04 LXC container with a fresh install of Proxmox 8.0.3 (kenrel 6.2.16-3-pve) on an Intel i5-13400, ASRock B760M Pro RS/D4, also using Intel drivers released early today. I largely followed this guide.

For this little project unless someone chimes in with experience or can point to regarding the RX 6600 XT / 6650 XT / perhaps 7600 I might go with https://github.com/intel/compute-runtime . (They don't have perfect documentation re supported gpus either, the readme table doesn't list DG2, you need to go to releases to see that) . Phoronix reported it as pretty stable when they tested it with kernel 6.2 in March.

Update: I was able to fix my issue. I'm using Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS and have the newest available kernel, 6.3.1. Installing the drivers via apt does not work, instead I needed to use https://github.com/intel/compute-runtime/releases/

Drivers: https://github.com/intel/compute-runtime/releases

wget https://github.com/intel/compute-runtime/releases/download/22.43.24595.30/intel-level-zero-gpu-dbgsym_1.3.24595.30_amd64.ddeb

For OpenCL HDR/DV tone-mapping, install the extra compute-runtime if running on host.

I've shared my opinion on why mouse/trackpad handling is terrible on most Linux distributions [0], thanks to an insane obsession w/ rewriting the entire stack and throwing away vendor-provided acceleration curves in order to provide gesture support, instead of just building it on top of the correct, working solution.

More importantly, there is a solution for fixing this and I've done my part by open sourcing a multi-touch gesture support that's driver-agnostic and runs on top of the vendor-provided drivers w/ their correct acceleration curves [1].

(But TBH I don't know if this applies to Apple's trackpad because I don't know if there are any first-party drivers w/ proper acceleration curves for Linux or if they've all been poorly reverse engineered.)

I wrote a general purpose multitouch daemon w/ gesture support for Linux that works with the existing input stack (i.e. doesn’t require switching to evinput), if anyone is interested:

Regardless of software (touchegg + touché, fusuma, libinput-gestures + libinput-gestures-qt OR gestures, gebaar-libinput, gebaar-libinput-fork, syngesture, gestures), which gestures do you actively use on your Plasma desktop?
