Hi all,
I recently installed Debian 12 on my Lenovo Legion 5 Pro, and am using the GNOME desktop (x11). From time to time I play a game called survev.io . It’s a browser battle royale game, not hard on graphics.
I have an Nvidia rtx3060 and have the proper drivers installed. I checked using nvidia-smi
and Firefox is using the Nvidia gpu.
The issue is that the game runs smoothly until I press a button or move the mouse. Then the framerate decreases significantly and it becomes unplayable.
I already tweaked the following settings in Firefox to no avail:
gfx.webrender.all = True
enabled hardware acceleration
layers.acceleration.force-enabled = TRUE
gfx.x11-egl.force-enabled = true
And now I’m out of ideas. The game itself isn’t too important to me, but other browser games do the same, so it’s a wider issue I want to solve.
Any ideas on how to resolve this?
It’s x11, when I check my desktop environments I only have gnome and gnome classic
I just installed a fresh Debian 12 VM and it looks like this on the login screen:
However, I don’t have an Nvidia GPU, so maybe their drivers disable Wayland?
There is something in the Debian wiki for Wayland on Nvidia: https://wiki.debian.org/NvidiaGraphicsDrivers#Wayland
