Around 6-8 months ago or so, give it take, I switched from windows to POP os. However I switched back rather quickly as I was unable to get RTX features to work like Ray tracing and DLSS. I was watching a video from some ordinary gamers and he mentioned he got all but frame generation working on his Linux machine.

My main question is this: how easy is it to get RTX features working on Linux these days? Was I just doing something wrong before? Was I using the wrong distro for that? I really wanna switch back to Linux but I paid good money for my GPU and want to be able to use it to it’s full extent.

    i dont think that this is purely the case. the moments where i have seen these issues mainly, where people not passing through PROTON_ENABLE_NVAPI=1 , or dont have up to date drivers. on “basic desktop stuff”, its only wayland issues, which need to get fixed from both sides - so nvidia and the open source community. x11 works “just fine”.
