I'm trying get to work some emulators.
2d emulators (snes, smd) works excellent, but any 3d (GC, PSX) shows under 10 fps with any graphical settings.

And I think trouble with "strange" version of libdrm they use

it's should be 2.4.65, right?

It's displaying version of DRM not LIBDRM which 2.4.65 refers to. DRM is built into kernel while libdrm is the interface for apps to access it from user space. I have not experimented with emulators on PS4 yet but maybe will get around to it later.

Dolphin is supposed to have good performance with Mesa drivers as described here. However the article is a little dated and driver performance may have changed since then.

It looks like it's failing to load radeon drivers at startup. Did you run Steam the way I described in the tutorial with LD_PRELOAD path pre-defined? You can also try the fix described here.

The command should actually be this but looks like you got it working.

Code: Select all

glxinfo | grep renderer
I managed to get wifi/bluetooth working although it's a little buggy. Will update the tutorial soon with these fixes.

I entered the renderer command in terminal and I saw the AMD Liverpool line XD Thanks.

Also I can't wait for the updates. next step for me is psx emulation if possible.
But I reached a different problem now. I manage to install steam no problems whatsoever,
but when I try to restart the UI with the system restart gdm command it loads up and hangs on a gray screen
with a mouse cursor. any advice on how to bypass?

This is a known issue. You can try installing lightdm to use as your login screen but it still seems to crash when selecting GNOME as desktop session.

Code: Select all

dnf install lightdm
systemctl start lightdm
If the desktop hangs, you can kill the sesssion and restart lightdm. Do this by pressing Ctrl+Alt+F2 and login to a separate terminal. Then type:

Code: Select all

su
killall Xorg
And press Ctrl+Alt+F1 to get back to the login screen.

If GNOME continues to fail, you may want to try something different such as MATE. It's suppose to look and feel like GNOME classic.

EDIT:
Added WIP wifi drivers to the tutorial.
