From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I guess the other post was removed so I couldn't continue the convo there. A few people said Sunshine worked great for them with their Nvidia cards and I've actually lost sleep over my issues.

I'm running Bazzite on a fairly new custom build with a RTX 2060S. Someone else said they used a RTX 40 series GPU so maybe my hardware is just too old. Still everything worked great in Windows (same machine) including streaming. I'm willing to try another OS but I don't know if I can deal with another new GPU because it'd be my 3rd and I hate the hassle of selling stuff online.

A key thing I've seen is that the vainfo command reports no encoding capabilities at all. I've never seen any other reports online where someone showed an Nvidia card that could encode according to vainfo. I can absolutely encode using ffmpeg though which is why I'm even more frustrated.

Pop 22.04 with Nvidia 3070 and it "just worked".

You haven't described in what way it is not working for you.
