>Current state of Nvidia drivers on Linux
Why do people use this fucking heap of shit? Is this what we can really expect in 2017?
Fucking abysmal.

You can always buy AMD.
Their open source drivers are great for Tonga and onwards.
>>62477942
Why should Nvidia make drivers for an OS used by permavirgins who live in their parent's basement and don't buy new hardware? Oh, I'm sorry Nvidia isn't spending money so you can play Doom II on some video card your mom got you in 1999.
Like I'm actually in awe at that webm. Can you people please click it?
>Yfw that fucking window resizing lag
>>62477989
>why should glorified software development company make good software
Well I dunno.
>tfw Intel graphis on Wayland
feels comfy.
at least you got yours to work
i've been trying to get the proprietary nvidia drivers to work for months and it's completely impossible apparently
i think i've come across 4 completely different unrelated problems so far

>See THAT
Linux is a mental illness. 100%.

>why should bathe and and stop masterbating to animated children?
Well I dunno, but your parents would be happier.

>cheap taiwanese trapboy is damage controlling for his leather jacketed master
Whoa there.
just use proprietary drivers for it you idiot.
>>62478079
that is propritary. Nouveau actually works, but I get no proper 3d acceleration in programs. What now idiot?
Nice fucking useless OS you got there.
Nouveau https://webmshare.com/eQvVJ
>>62478049
nvidia+linux is the mental illness

Nvidia uses proprietary drivers on Windows as well. If you don't want to use proprietary drivers don't buy Nvidia?
Well it's arch so OF COURSE it does not function correctly. You likely installed it wrong, arch is well known for having all sorts of weird errors.
>>62478118
wat
are you literally retarded
the discussion is how poorly they work, not some philosophical freetard shit you complete fucking idiot

Michael Larabtard from Phagronix suggests novidia blob...
He made an intern he had last year to buy novidia.
Don't fall for larabtard's memes.
>>62477942
>Why do people use this fucking heap of shit? Is this what we can really expect in 2017?
I don't know why anyone would use Linux in 2017

>Nvidia
Anon, I feel sorry for you
>>62477942
never had that problem and i've been using linux with nvidia since redhat 9 + ti4200
>>62478189
really? you can't think of one reason? have you used a microwave recently?
>>62478217
Maymays don't change the fact that loonix is objectively the worst desktop OS.
>>62478245
>linux is only a desktop
>I have no reason to use certain tools and am too stupid to understand why anyone would therefore linux is shit
>>62478245

Neckbeards on full damage control. You boys are so easily triggered, ;^)
>>62478311
hahaha xd "i was pretending to be retarded"
>>62478244
>have you used a microwave recently?
Yes, it's so comfy.
>>62478035
Same.
Can't even drag a window or playback a video in Nouveau without lagging or stuttering.
>>62477958
>amd
>>62478483
uhh check OP i guarentee his is worse than yours
>>62477942
same shit happens on my amd card
>>62477958
But their proprietary are even worse and opengl performance on both is abysmal compared to nvidia
>>62478631
>AMDGPU-PRO
Only exists for backwards compatability.
Use AMDGPU.
>>62478513
Nouveau drivers are still worse.
>buying hardware you know is going to have issues on linux
Serves you right.
>>62478789
Nouveau https://webmshare.com/eQvVJ
no?
its pretty good?
almost flawless?
>tfw T410 with nvidia
Actually bought this with the intention of using Linux. What a big mistake.
>>62477942
>Is this what we can really expect in 2017?
From open source, yes
>>62479001
What is your question?
I've had worst experience with the open source drivers than the Nvidia drivers. My gnome lags on nouveau. Running a 1070
>>62477942
>>62478089
why should nvidia waste work hours for shit that doesn't matter? use your gpu to something useful instead of trying to enable useless shit like transarency. ricing is literally the last thing people should waste their electricity.
>>62477942
>http://webm.land/w/bxo6/
What am I allegedly looking at that makes no sense to me except that you're trying to use linux
>>62477942
Oh, is the the new Microsoft facts thread? cool, nice EFFECTIVE EVANGELISM.
