| webchat42 | hello guys I am xavier since a moment my ubuntu is not working I don't know why. | 09:04 |
| tomreyn | hi webchat42 | 09:08 |
| tomreyn | if you're looking for support with ubuntu , please ask in #ubuntu | 09:08 |

| ice9 | I'm getting higher FPS with the nouveau driver than the prop nvidia driver, how come? | 17:52 |
| daftykins | lol, i bet the proprietary didn't load properly | 18:15 |
| ice9 | daftykins, I re-installed it, rebooted etc .. | 18:20 |
| daftykins | that's not a guarantee | 18:23 |
| leftyfb | ice9: maybe ask for support in #ubuntu | 19:16 |
| JanC | I likely explanation is that games might use less detail when certain features aren't available, and thus get higher framerates... | 21:45 |
| JanC | or maybe nouveau is just faster on some (older?) hardware for some use cases... | 21:45 |
| JanC | it's not like the nouveau driver is really bad | 21:46 |
| daftykins | that's a very good point, i foolishly assumed feature parity! :D | 21:46 |
| daftykins | user's gone though | 21:47 |
| JanC | the nvidia drivers tend to be optimised for the most recent hardware also | 21:48 |
| JanC | and most recent hardware features | 21:48 |
| daftykins | seen plenty of pieces that disprove it makes as much of a difference as many claim | 21:50 |
| JanC | you mean nvidia vs. nouveau? | 21:51 |
| daftykins | nah having an old card and then keeping up with drivers, say | 21:52 |
| JanC | well, nvidia tends to drop support for older hardware pretty quickly | 21:53 |
| JanC | (compared to some other companies, at least) | 21:53 |
| JanC | which is why Ubuntu something like ~15 driver versions packaged | 21:54 |
| JanC | for nvidia | 21:54 |
| daftykins | i don't think i've felt disadvantaged by whatever the pace may be | 21:55 |
| JanC | well, the older driver versions are still around, just not officially supported, I think | 21:55 |
