setting up Apollo & Artemis for game streaming over a ssh connection from my laptop to my PC and occasionally a SOCKS 5 tunnel also over ssh for stuff like “accessing smth only exposed to localhost” or “enabling UPnP on my router”

right now im met with a wall: for some reason KMS doesnt wanna cooperate

I LOVE FREE SOFTWARE

tldr: the reason it wasnt working was that the monitors were turned off by powersave, lmao

@gelatin i mean the solution works so at least this time it’s okay

@gelatin @twinkle DISPLAY=:0 xset dpms force on

if you use non-X i laugh in your general direction

@gelatin @twinkle that's funny because i do that

@gelatin @wyatt @twinkle .. which just works on Xorg?

@kimapr @gelatin @twinkle my guess is this is a jab about tearing but idgaf (if doing something where tearing matters, there are ways dependent on drivers to make it happen, like triple-buffering in intel, or "forcefullcompositionpipeline" or whatever it's called on nvidia). Also i could just turn a secondary screen off if tearing is driving me crazy because things where tearing matters are usually things where i need to be focused on that thing

@wyatt @gelatin @kimapr hello, please do not start a hellthread fighting about x11 v.s. wayland under me, thanks!

@twinkle @gelatin @kimapr oki, if it starts going farther than this i'll remove you from replies :\

@wyatt thank you for your understanding

@wyatt @gelatin oh i actually wonder if using a compositor on X11 makes mixed refresh rates not work properly. because when i was playing minecraft with picom running, the framerate felt super shit, but when i killed picom suddenly it became smooth
