mesa VS linux-tkg

No problems, AMD Adrenalin it's a part of Windows AMD drivers, but on Linux you have not this soft, here is link: https://github.com/Mesa3D/mesa

Basically there's this one driver for all intel/amd gpus (https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa) and NVIDIA decided to make their own barely working driver (full of bugs) and also try to make their own standards & protocols instead of using the ones intel/amd have already created

For the curious (I was), I believe this is the associated commit: https://github.com/Mesa3D/mesa/commit/f2e535e4fed5bdc13e11a4...

So you're running Mesa 23 by compiling the code at https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/ then?

no it uses amdgpu driver which is build into / part of the kernel (device drivers), and you can use 2 userspace graphics drivers, one being mesa the other one being amdvlk

Good luck, check out https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa and https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/drivers/gpu/drm?h=v6.2-rc1 this is for Linux, but I don't believe that the size of that project, would be different for windows.

Generally, Arch is the better platform for getting various kernel versions, but there's always stuff like Xanmod which is easy to do in any distro. Worst case, could always use linux-tkg script to build your own kernel - with that kind of hardware it shouldn't take long for the kernel to be built.

kernel patched with cherry-picked zen patches (also used in TKG kernel on Arch https://github.com/Frogging-Family/linux-tkg/blob/master/linux-tkg-patches/6.1/0003-glitched-base.patch) kernel patched with OpenRGB (https://gitlab.com/CalcProgrammer1/OpenRGB/-/wikis/OpenRGB-Kernel-Patch) kernel patched to enable amdgpu for pre-polaris cards by default instead of radeon kernel patched with steam deck support kernel patched with microsoft surface support (https://github.com/linux-surface/linux-surface/tree/master/patches/6.1) kernel patched with asus-linux patches for better asus laptop compatibility. (https://gitlab.com/asus-linux) kernel patched with simpledrm fix/workaround for nvidia (see: https://gitlab.com/cki-project/kernel-ark/-/merge_requests/1788 ) kernel patched with ACS override IOMMU patch for better vfio iommu group control (https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/tree/add-acs-overrides.patch?h=linux-vfio) kernel patched with Lenovo Legion Linux support (https://github.com/johnfanv2/LenovoLegionLinux) kernel patched with customizable USB polling rate support (https://github.com/KarsMulder/Linux-Pollrate-Patch + https://github.com/GloriousEggroll/Linux-Pollrate-Patch) kernel configured with ashmem, binder, and android support for Waydroid QSG_RENDER_LOOP=”basic” set for nvidia cards — fixes nouveau Wayland freezes. The nvidia proprietary driver sets this anyway after installation. This fixes the issue of KDE Wayland often times freezing on first login before nvidia proprietary drivers are installed. latest mesa release version provided for AMD/Intel desktop/GL drivers, mesa-git vulkan drivers provided for latest vulkan fixes/updates, built and updated regularly (every few weeks to a month on average) glibc patched with clone3 disabled (fixes CEF compatibility in applications using outdated CEF such as Discord, Steam beta) glibc patched with broken commits reverted to allow EasyAntiCheat to work for Rogue Company dnf max parallel downloads increased to 6 gst-editing-services disabled — causes WINE to hang when creating new prefixes lspci symlink from /usr/sbin/lspci to /usr/bin/lspci for Dying Light: https://www.gamingonlinux.com/forum/topic/2766/post_id=17381 ‘nobara-controller-config’ package provided for easy installation of xone and xpadneo drivers and firmware. gnome variable refresh rate patches added for mutter: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1154 gnome mutter check-alive-timeout increased from 5 seconds to 30 seconds. This is the amount of time gnome waits before trying to determine if an application is not responding. At 5 seconds it almost immediately triggers for league of legends (and some other applications) if those applications are still in the loading phase. We feel 30 seconds is a much more reasonable wait time. gnome mutter patched with x11 fractional scaling: https://salsa.debian.org/gnome-team/mutter/-/raw/ubuntu/master/debian/patches/ubuntu/x11-Add-support-for-fractional-scaling-using-Randr.patch gnome mutter wayland and x11 fractional scaling enabled by default: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/HiDPI#Fractional_scaling gnome shell patched with https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/merge_requests/2358 to allow gnome-extension-manager to auto-update without needing gnome-extension-app installed. (They both function the same but gnome-extension-manager allows management of extensions without a browser). gamescope version regularly updated goverlay version regularly updated mangohud version regularly updated vkbasalt version regularly updated vm.max_map_count = 16777216 set by default for Star Citizen xwayland patched with fix for locked fps on some systems: https://build.opensuse.org/package/view_file/home:hwsnemo:xwayland/xwayland/xwayland-vsync.diff?expand=1 supergfxctl and gnome extension + kde plasmoid enabled for laptops. Vendor agnostic and works with any combination of intel/amd/nvidia gpus.

Technically, it would be https://github.com/Frogging-Family/linux-tkg compiled specifically for you CPU and with tickless and a bunch of other patches, but the different isn't significant

Kernel: Gentoo-sources (6.1.28) with these patches for bcachefs (applied through Gentoo user patches, no other patches installed)

New kernel is available, just not straight from Manjaro. Plus lots of options and patches https://github.com/Frogging-Family/linux-tkg

Is it possible for Ubuntu Studio to have the kernel upgraded -it is at 5.15 atm? The kernel from the Frogging Family: https://github.com/Frogging-Family/linux-tkg And how do I install wine-tkg 😅 I cant seems to figure it out. https://github.com/Frogging-Family/wine-tkg-git

I use Nvidia (GTX 1080) and Tumbleweed just fine. No issues. But also I use a custom Kernel, based-on TKG currently and HEAVILY customized (https://github.com/Frogging-Family/linux-tkg). I also use SLRC (https://susepaste.org/89529032) SUSE Local Repository Creator, to download and keep all the repos I use for SUSE, including Tumbleweed.

Also, I use a custom Kernel (at the moment TKG - https://github.com/Frogging-Family/linux-tkg), supports SUSE. But there's also pre-built Liquorix Kernel for SUSE Tumbleweed in the OBS: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:hwsnemo:kernels /kernel-liquorix

You can compile by yourself, TKG is the easiest for me: https://github.com/Frogging-Family/linux-tkg

I have no issues with Nvidia drivers on Tumbleweed. But also you can use a custom Kernel (TKG -- https://github.com/Frogging-Family/linux-tkg -- for instance) and use offline repos (with this script: https://susepaste.org/89529032 -- not mine but clean) to download SUSE repos that you need. Re run the script to update. Quick, easy and you're not bombarded with updates; update when you want. Works beaut with Tumbleweed.
