![]() ![]() Prominent FFmpeg developer Cyanreg has begun working on an experimental Vulkan hardware acceleration video decoder for FFmpeg.Ĭyanreg is working on this FFmpeg vulkan_decode GitHub branch where so far H.264 Vulkan-based video decode is wired up. Experimental FFmpeg Code For Vulkan Acceleration – Phoronix.Then again, even with the GeForce GTX 900 Maxw NVIDIA has not yet published the Ampere signed microcode/firmware files necessary for bringing up the engines and get accelerated 3D working. Since earlier this year has been the very basic Nouveau driver support for Ampere but without 3D acceleration so basically amounts to a kernel mode-setting driver to at least (hopefully) getting the display working nicely. The open-source Nouveau driver’s support for the GeForce RTX 30 “Ampere” series remains very limited - most notably, without any 3D acceleration support - but now the GA106 GPU can light up for the GeForce RTX 3060. Nouveau Lights Up The NVIDIA RTX 3060 GPU Open-Source Support – Phoronix.The latest Zink development code paired with the forthcoming “Copper” work is yielding an OpenGL-on-Vulkan implementation that when running on NVIDIA’s proprietary Vulkan driver is even able to outperform NVIDIA’s own proprietary OpenGL driver for at least one notable Linux game.įollowing the recent achievements around Zink / Copper and getting Wayland’s Weston running atop the experimental code, he shared that with NVIDIA’s proprietary driver stack this is a big improvement. Experimental Zink On NVIDIA’s Vulkan Driver Capable Of Outperforming OpenGL Driver – Phoronix.First we have the open source Mesa 21.3 release and we also secondly have the NVIDIA Vulkan Beta 470.62.12 also out now.įor the Mesa 21.3 release it pulls in a number of new features and performance improvements. Two sets of driver releases are now available. Mesa 21.3 drivers out, plus NVIDIA 470.62.12 Vulkan Beta for Linux. ![]() The Linux 5.16 merge window now past, an initial batch of changes from drm-misc-next has been sent in to DRM-Next for queuing until the Linux 5.17 cycle kicks off around the start of the new year.
