Got a new PC and finally wanna play some vydia - but love linux, what do? I bought this machine with GPU Passtrough in mind 8 cores / 16 threads and 32gb RAM + gtx 980ti, but Hardware is too recent for debian / ubuntu kernels. Have to switch to arch based distro, but haven´t really got it to work with instructions out there, any ideas? I also tried Open Stream + Moonlight and am too greedy for parsec. has anyone out there tried to do an GPU Passtrough on arch?

why the frick are you using neobloat on windows
it´s winfetch
It´s bloat
its a terminal program you use once every month that takes one second to run? why do you give a frick if it's "bloat"? sorry, i know this is bait. there are people who really believe this though.
>bro just shove your directories and registry with as much bullshit as you can like everyone else, who cares, I'm too moronic to manuallly clean my registry and just reinstall wangblows whenever my minecraft laggs anyways xD
>touching the registry
i never knew someone could be that autistic
i dont use windows, i use linux and neofetch and its shit is just hidden in some config folder somewhere. i dont care. why would that bother me.
Maybe try Linux Mint Edge Edition, it ships with a newer kernel.

Or try Debian testing. There are isos available, but they are pretty well hidden.

>Maybe try Linux Mint Edge Edition, it ships with a newer kernel.
I have already tried Linuxmint Edge, acually you can change the kernel in Edge ISO and in the normal release up to a certain kernel, which happen to be not recent enough. Debian testing isn´t an option for me, since I´ve experienced several bugs while testing it. But I can try this, to see if i can boot to it
Debian Testing is usually problem-free. Especially now, since it isn't that new anymore and the worst bugs are already fixed.
Otherwise, use Arch. It might be the best option anyway, since you get the newest drivers and other shit almost immediately.
Thank you for the tip with Debian Testing, works like charm so far. I am in good faith, that I will get the passtrough working, reporting soon further
Hey fren, I have installed debian testing, works like charm, GPU Passtrough welt also well, thank you very much anon
Wow, this thread still exists.
Glad to see it worked out for you anon! Debian Testing is nice. You can add Debian unstable repos for more up to date packages. Might be useful one day.
The only thing I have to figure out now, is how to switch my keyboard and mouse between host an guest. I have an USB Switch, but reaching trough the switch doesn't worked as i hoped
problem solved
thanks to this https://github.com/pavolelsig/evdev_helper/issues?q=is%3Aissue
Can't really help you with that.
Don't you just have to click inside the guest machine and it automatically grabs mouse and keyboard? And then press some key combination to go back to the host machine?
https://github.com/pavolelsig/evdev_helper did the trick for me
>Have to switch to arch based distro, but haven´t really got it to work with instructions out there, any ideas?
If you fricked up the arch install process, use the archinstall script where all you have to do is partition your disk.
If you fricked up the archinstall script stay on windows. You'll only hurt yourself dealing with loonix.
>If you fricked up the arch install process
I havent fricked up arch install, i didn´t get the gpu passtrough to work
I got the guestvm to have a picture (Seabios) display on the isolated GPU, but stuck at windows whining about lack of important windows drivers. I passed trough my mainboard driver CD and searched for drivers, without success
German homies really be like
time to open the Eingabeaufforderung and see what my neofetch is
The virgin command prompt
vs
The Chad Eingabeaufforderung.
german is the language of love.
ICH LIEBEN DICH!
It´s called: "Ich liebe dich!"
I will try out debian testing next when I have the time, thank you fren
i have no idea. i tried teaching myself german via an ancient book many years ago and not much stuck in my brain.
I try to learn some polnish, germany will go broke and collapse soon enough, I wanna be prepared for migrating to poland
If germany collapses, big stronk polska is done for.
nah, they don´tlet the muds in
You've never heard german sex. It's among the worst.
what makes german sex different from regular sex?
you're welcome, gl with that
it´s more expensive to get your partner drunk
Literally the first result
https://github.com/vanities/GPU-Passthrough-Arch-Linux-to-Windows10
Make sure you aren't using the 980Ti for your monitor otherwise you won't be able to use it for passthrough
I told you that the gpu passtrough did somehow work, but I didn´t came across driver selection
I got GPU Passthrough to work on Arch, i used Muta's vid: https://youtu.be/BUSrdUoedTo and some googling (GitHub, Arch wiki page on GPUPT,...)
thanks mate
Benutz doch einfach EndeavourOS. Es basiert auf Arch, ist aber etwas weniger autistisch. Habe es selber. Bei mir funktioniert alles.
hast du den thread gelesen? arch ist keine hürde für mich, ich habe nur beim passtrough schwierigkeiten
Ah, sorry. Bin etwas müde heute.
learn what an apostrophe is you fricking moron
I only have Arch in my main gaming machine, if you don't specifically want to play the few games which are unavailable (like valorant, fortnite, rainbow six siege, mostly some multiplayer games) and you are willing to spend a bit of time configuring stuff every now and then its not bad at all.
You can look at protondb to see if any game is playable, in my experience, all games i've ever wanted to play work fine.
Some of the stuff I've played/play regularly is:
Minecraft
Battlefield 1
Fallout 4 (heavily modded)
the metro series
hotline miami
FTL
csgo
far cry 3
If you are still unsure, you should probably dual boot, and if any game you want to play isnt playable in linux then you can run it on windows.
btw I am refering to running these games either natively or with proton/wine
Thanks for the report. I am writing an debian testing to a usb atm. let´s see of it boots, if that succeeds, I´ll whipe my windows.
Does F4SE/SKSE work on proton? How was the setup? Issues? Real talk
I've got it to work using this I believe:
https://www.reddit.com/r/f4se/comments/nj7fwm/a_more_elegant_way_to_run_f4se_on_linux/
though most of the mods i use don't require F4SE
Set up was pretty straightforward using steam, though the installation of the mods has to be done manually as mod loaders don't seem to work on linux, installing them is easy however, literally drag and drop the mod files to a folder in most cases.
Performance wise i would say every time you run a game with proton/wine (as im doing with fallout 4) it adds some overhead in terms of CPU use, as it has to do API translation. This basically makes games need a more powerfull CPU in linux.
With my older CPU I used to have some bottleneck causing my FPS to be unable to pass 50 in BF1 and FO4, but once I upgraded to a i5 10400 that was gone and I'm comfortably running both in ultra and +60fps (fallout with mods)
GPU is an AMD rx 6500 btw
>going through all that effort
>to play a fricking terrible bethesda game
jesus christ
GPU?
amd rx 6500 xt*
parsec is free for personal use, anon.
try Fedora, it has a recent kernel and is more stable than Arch based stuff
Just dualboot you autistic ass
no frick you
Then, suffer
>Element
>Einkauf.ods
are you me?
Dual boot
>wanna play some vydia - but love linux, what do?
install steam
>Got a new PC and finally wanna play some vydia - but love linux, what do?
Install SteamOS
Boyaa, works like charm
congrats anon
Running a passthrough system as daily driver is a pain in the butt. Maybe it got better in the last couple of years, but that doesn't really matter, now gaming on Linux is matured enough that you can play almost everything on Linux and the competitive stuff that doesn't run on Linux won't run well in a VM either.
gpu pass-through is just annoying
your system will behave as-if you dual booted but with less performance
wake me up when sr-iov is enabled on consumer tier gpus
>Hardware is too recent for debian / ubuntu kernels
Just install 5.18 then
