- lostmsu 5y agoIf only Linux implemented GPU scheduling in that time...
- BearOso 5y agoDidn’t you know? “GPU scheduling” is a change that makes the Windows driver behave more like Linux ones. There’s nothing to implement, it’s been done that way the whole time. edit That’s only if you use mesa, though. Nobody has a clue what the nvidia binary driver is up to.
- lostmsu 5y agoI wasn't talking about hardware GPU scheduling, that allows sending compute work to GPU using GPU features. I was talking the kind of scheduling, that prioritizes one kind of work over another as in CPU scheduling (e.g. process priorities). Linux does not do that for GPU AFAIK.
- lowbloodsugar 5y ago2025: The year of the linux desktop! For sure this time!
- aceazzameen 5y agoYeah, that gives me 4 more years to investigate Linux.
- ByThyGrace 5y agoI left Windows desktop for Linux two years ago, and what I realize now that took a while to happen was a shift in mentality: - When you use Windows, you consume the OS. Everything about it is given, all you do is take. - When you use Linux, you take part in a give-and-take relationship with the OS, because the OS is attached to a community that works on it, around it. Using Linux means that you're not going to have everything given to you on a silver plate. But you also get to make your own silver plate and pass it around.
- soco 5y agoProbably we have very different use cases. I use my laptop to browse, edit documents, develop programs and transfer/view media files. In all these I'd very much like to not even know I have an operating system. So the major difference is I'm not using the laptop to have relationships, with it or with some community, and the less I need to fiddle outside the above use cases, the more I appreciate the experience.
