Quoting: ZlopezI'm surprised to see Jim Whitehurst as Interim CEO for Unity. I thought that he currently has some top management function in IBM after being CEO of Red Hat.

I'm sorry they don't consider session management a show stopper. IMHO its quite a big regression.

Looks like there is a problem with the new driver launching CS2 under Wayland and/or gamescope:

A fix was done but landed after the release was cut.
Just flipping through their forum shows quite a lot of people having a hard time with Wayland still.

DLSS 3 requires a RTX-40 series card AFAIK.

Quoting: sniper_nine 535.43.13 vulkan beta drivers work fine with 3090ti gpu. Not sure about the normal beta branch drivers though I am thinking the the fix needed for starfield didn't make in the normal beta branch drivers. I couldn't get any of the dlss mods to work. So for me fps are like 24-40 mostly around 30-35 though. But that is at 4k with the graphics maxed out. I haven't done much testing though. I spent some time trying to get the dlss mods to work but couldn't seem to get them working yet.

With the last stable release, 535.113.01, eglinfo core-dumped on me on Fedora 37. It broke ksysstats (used by plasma-systemmonitor) so I backed down to 535.104.05.

I can endorse Jim Whitehurst. He was an amazing CEO at Red Hat.

Companies asking "do we really want to do this?" when it comes to being bought? Absolutely yes. Those in charge walk away with a ton of money and the rest, well, that's up to them. I think even well-meaning owners fall into this trap. When they are no longer in charge, they are no longer in charge and can't protect their former staff.

Apparently I opened my account almost exactly 4 months after introduction. I have the 19 year badge.
I remember the frequent struggle keeping Steam working in Cedega. Finding and installing the Tahoma font for wine. The early days were really quite rough. I still have my Orange Box around here somewhere. My first games were imported from that.
I remember the excitement when I was included in the Linux beta (sorry work, I *cough* *cough* am not feeling well today).
I remember when I had more games on CD/DVD/direct download than on Steam. I still have shelves full of them but they are dwarfed by Steam keys now. It's really too much. I've never even launched some of them (blames Humble Bundle).
