Re: [Solved] New laptop, Nvidia 5080, nvidia-open drivers, low fps

Followed the PRIME article and made the changes to the configs.
Had to manually install the correct driver versions again because using pacman to install steam caused the nvidia-utils to install the latest update. (Lesson learned, dont trust automatic updates ever) (Second lesson learned, dont ever use pacman -Syu, luckily i noticed the 575 drivers before pressing enter)
To the "where, how?" during install it required

You must install the 32-bit version of the OpenGL graphics driver appropriate for your system.

using 

DRI_PRIME=1 glxinfo | grep "OpenGL renderer"

returns 

glx: failed to create dri3 screen
failed to load driver: nouveau
OpenGL renderer string: zink Vulkan 1.4(NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 Laptop GPU (NVIDIA_PROPRIETARY))

Even though the drivers from pacman -Qs show

local/egl-gbm 1.1.2.1-1
    The GBM EGL external platform library
local/egl-wayland 4:1.1.19-1
    EGLStream-based Wayland external platform
local/egl-x11 1.0.2-1
    NVIDIA XLib and XCB EGL Platform Library
local/lib32-nvidia-utils 570.153.02-1
    NVIDIA drivers utilities (32-bit)
local/libva-nvidia-driver 0.0.13-1
    VA-API implementation that uses NVDEC as a backend
local/libvdpau 1.5-3
    Nvidia VDPAU library
local/libxnvctrl 570.153.02-1
    NVIDIA NV-CONTROL X extension
local/nvidia-open-dkms 570.153.02-2
    NVIDIA open kernel modules - module sources
local/nvidia-prime 1.0-5
    NVIDIA Prime Render Offload configuration and utilities
local/nvidia-settings 570.153.02-1
    Tool for configuring the NVIDIA graphics driver
local/nvidia-utils 570.153.02-2
    NVIDIA drivers utilities

using nvidia-smi returns

Tried following the steam|troubleshooting page and ran into an issue. Found the libraries I was missing

        libXrandr.so.2 => not found 
        libXrender.so.1 => not found 
        libXtst.so.6 => not found

After manually installing the above packages(and some that seemed to be linked to them "to be safe" I told myself) steam no longer starts.
When looking for the missing libraries again it showed to not be missing any.
Don't know If I bricked it in some way by installing a library or what. I'm considering just reinstalling the OS and starting from scratch with what I've learned

Re: [Solved] New laptop, Nvidia 5080, nvidia-open drivers, low fps

because using pacman to install steam caused the nvidia-utils to install the latest update

https://man.archlinux.org/man/pacman.conf.5#OPTIONS - IgnorePkg

DRI_PRIME=1 glxinfo | grep "OpenGL renderer"

https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/any/nvidia-prime/

After manually installing the above packages

sudo LC_ALL=C pacman -Qkk 2>&1 | grep -v ', 0 altered files' | grep -v backup > /tmp/howbadisit.txt
cat /tmp/howbadisit.txt | curl -F 'file=@-' 0x0.st

Idk what has happened there, but unless those were 32bit binaries, there's be some massive corruption to the installed system…

Re: [Solved] New laptop, Nvidia 5080, nvidia-open drivers, low fps

Full install using archinstall
Selected nvidia dkms option under graphics drivers
Downgraded to nvidia-open-dkms 570.153 driver (This will almost certainly change in the future, and especially if you have a different system)
Installed nvidia-utils nvidia-settings and downgraded to match versions
Installed nvidia-prime vulkan-intel
Enabled multilib
Installing steam through multilib, required nvidia-utils
ignorepackage, nvidia-utils lib32-nvidia-utils, didnt work, pacman said no because it was dependents unless i did it wrong.
Removing the comment from /etc/pacman.conf for "IgnorePkg" and added nvidia-utils caused the download for steam using multilib to fail because of the dependency. I then:
Downloaded them without the IgnorePkg and downgraded them again manually (must downgrade both at the same time to make it comply)
Downloaded lib32-mesa-utils
Using proton hotfix instead of 9.0.4, using the hotfix solved the game not starting issue.
P.S. It still shows that I'm missing a bunch of libraries though it still runs.
I absolutely downloaded something I shouldn't have @seth whoops smile

Currently get 40fps in benchmark, compared to 10fps. Ill mark this solved but I still got a lot to do to this thing. (Hardware accel is disabled somehow (if anyone knows where the right variables are for the EV's please let me know as the nvidia-open-dkms are not listed), multiple suspend issues, etc.)
Will make a tldr on the first post to help my fellow noobs.
Thank you all who helped and I hope I wasn't too much of a bother.

Please don't paraphrase, https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=57855 - how are we supposed to tell whether and what  you did wrong if we neither know what you did nor what the error actually was?

Re: [Solved] New laptop, Nvidia 5080, nvidia-open drivers, low fps

My apologies, fixed the paraphrasing and let me not make this issue a XY problem.
When trying to enable frame generation with DLSS for the benchmark it tells me that hardware accelerated gpu scheduling is off.

Re: [Solved] New laptop, Nvidia 5080, nvidia-open drivers, low fps

· Both intel and nvidia (via prime) are properly accelerated
· Running that "file" chain in your $HOME doesn't make any sense, it was to filter out 32bit binaries from your previous run
· You lack VAAPI, https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Hardwa … tion#Intel - for nvidia you'd need a shim, https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Hardwa … ion_layers
For DLSS you probably need the nvidia chip to be used so in doubt check https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/PRIME# … _using_GPU and for 32bit games you'll need a proper multilib setup which isn't covered by the current outputs and we still don't know whether you messed that up because of the IgnorePkg situation.
glxinfo32 instead of glxinfo will tell…

Downloaded both transition layers
I was already using the steam render offloader command.
I don't think theres anything crazy with the IgnorePkg, I simply tried downloading steam with it enabled, then after seeing how it wouldn't install the correct dependent drivers elsewhere, I disabled it, downloaded the whole steam package, then searched for all the 575 drivers and manually downgraded each to the 570 driver.
Also, I understand that running any command that I don't fully understand is dangerous, however since I wasn't downloading anything with wget, I don't really care since theres no data on this machine. I could rm rf the whole thing and itd only lose me an hour or so. I guess the only exception would be downloading a keylogger and me not noticing for an entire year lol.
I tried changing the proton versions and different commands but nothing has been successful in allowing framegen to turn on.

Re: [Solved] New laptop, Nvidia 5080, nvidia-open drivers, low fps

I was already using the steam render offloader command.

Since both GPUs are properly accelerated, does the performance change if you don't?
Does DLSS benchmark not reveal the renderer it sees/uses?
