The approach to installing steam as described here: https://www.funtoo.org/Steam is very clever. However, it doesn't describe how it applies to Optimus laptops. Or am I missing something? Can the guide for Steam be used for gaming (Optimus) laptops? Sorry, but I'm just a mere mortal trying to figure out how I can use my gaming laptop given that Funtoo is now fully 64-bit. Other things in mind: Lutris, Wine, DXVK, Vulkan, Steam proton.

some questions regarding @drobbins announcement: https://forums.funtoo.org/topic/2997-selinux-packages-updated-in-14-and-selinux-next-development/ 1. If I (as funtoo user) report bugs (found on funtoo machine) to Gentoo Hardened SELinux project . Do I also need to report them to bugs.funtoo.org? (example: FL-6753 and 697564). Thats not a problem for me but I don't know what about devs? 2. I think that I found one sec-policy bug related to nvidia which I suspect is funtoo specific. I connect it with this change but I can't tell if it's valid for Gentoo and should I bother @perfinion from #gentoo-hardened EDIT: regarding Q#2 if someone is interested in logs: I believie it's /dev/nvidiactl related $ startx # cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log [ 4173.919] X.Org X Server 1.20.5 X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0 [ 4173.919] Build Operating System: Linux 4.19.67_p2-r1-debian-sources-lts x86_64 Gentoo [ 4173.920] Current Operating System: Linux pc 4.19.67_p2-r1-debian-sources-lts #1 SMP Fri Sep 27 13:23:14 CEST 2019 x86_64 [ 4173.920] Kernel command line: BOOT_IMAGE=/kernel-debian-sources-lts-x86_64-4.19.67_p2-r1 real_root=/dev/sdc6 rootfstype=ext4 rand_id=FI38EHQ7 pci=nocrs security=selinux enforcing=1 [ 4173.921] Build Date: 11 October 2019 06:19:53PM [ 4173.921] [ 4173.921] Current version of pixman: 0.34.0 [ 4173.921] Before reporting problems, check http://wiki.x.org to make sure that you have the latest version.

Hi all, unfortunately my Xorg do not work, so i needed to use another computer in order to write this post. My problem started after updating to the new Nvidia driver 435.21. This caused a not compatible API between my gentoo-sources 4.19.27. That is why I updated today to debian-sources 5.2.17-p1. After the update i validated that the selected kernel is the new debian kernel and prefomed: emerge @x11-module-rebuild The package x11-drivers/nvidia-driver-435.21 was installed as well. The problem ist that my xorg does not start. looking into Xorg.0.log reviles that no nvidia driver exists using the command find i was unable to find for this kernel files such as nvidia.ko Any idea?

Hi! Following ebuilds now added to testing nvidia-drivers-390.77-r1 and nvidia-drivers-396.45-r1 Both including patch to resolve a blank screen issue, when kernel-4.16 or newer used.. This patch will not be applied, if older kernel version installed or/and set as default kernel. To test, assuming kernel-4.16 or newer used and video card is supported by LTS release of nvidia-drivers, proceed with following steps echo "=x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-390.77-r1 **" >> /etc/portage/package.keywords emerge nvidia-drivers debian-sources-4.17.8 added, also with no keywords, for testing, use: echo "=sys-kernel/debian-sources-4.17.8 **" >> /etc/portage/package.keywords emerge debian-sources boot-update Testing is very much appreciated. As usual, bugs.funtoo.org is your friend for any problems encountered. Regards, Oleg.
