I'm scared.
Board is radeon 6750M. Open source drivers wont create shaders with kernel 4, works with 3 though.
Could I have fucked up the gpu by trying several distros with the driver? It just doesnt add up to me.
Fucked up perfect machine with linux hur dur retard alert
Jason Clark
just install Windows 10
Hunter Price
Noooo noooo. It's not what this is about
Hey, it doesn't add up to me also. Why would the gpu fuck up by using ankther driver. It must be some kind of config, or simply different versions of gzdoom
And I'm a very happy user of linux. I like it, I like to use it. I like to personalize it.
But, my computer comes from a too much of a hipster environment, so there is not a lot of community support.
So yes, the problem is having a macbook but hey, i'm not going to buy another computer. It works fine for everything else.
How is it that the drivers dont fit the new kernels? I'm crossposting this in the /doom/ thread and they say they switched to opengl 4.0 Is this new version of opengl refined yet?
Hunter Lee
I dont like windows.
If I go away from linux, id switch to osx. I like unix based systems
Jaxon Thompson
Try resetting the SMC (regulates among other things the CPU throttling). Maybe Ganoo Loonix fucked it up.
If that doesn't work maybe you can try installing a clean copy of OS X and trying it again.
Michael Butler
That's odd, I've used gzdoom with linux before and my only issue was getting the sound working properly. The music wouldn't play all of it and after a few tweeks got it working properly.
Caleb Gomez
Music doesnt work either, but i dont care because I use to play with eerie music packs that are coded in ogg.
That makes sense. I'll try after eating.
I also use refind. Does it matter which efi bootloader you use, besides the kernel parameters?
Jaxson Jenkins
Buys what? Macbooks?
I think you mean that there is not so much people with macbooks that bother installing linux in it
Nathaniel Reed
What build of gzdoom are you using?
Brayden Myers
>buy a macbook >install loonix
FUCK YOU, RETARD!
Brandon Smith
In linux, 2.1.1, precompiled from the drdteam repo
In osx, 0.5.9. The port follows another version numbering so I dont know what it equals in mainstream releases.
For what ive tried, it is later than 2.1.1
I cant compile it because g++ complains about ambiguous c++ notation

OS X isn't a version of BSD. That's like saying that Windows 10 is a version of Linux just because it has a Linux subsystem.
OS X is a version of XNU or Mach.
John Moore
chocolate doom is the one true doom clone.
Ethan Bailey
If you bothered to do your research you'd know that Darwin runs on a hybrid kernel which uses parts from xnu, mach and freebsd. It's also unix cerrified, so it's officially a unix system.
Ryan Kelly
For me, doom is the essence of community gaming projects.
I enjoy playing people's levelpacks. Its comfy for me
Nicholas Richardson
Chocolate doom is nice if you are a vanilla purist, but z/gzdoom has so many cool mods for it. With ACS scripting and DECORATE, you can do all kinds of cool stuff the original doom engines were never capable of.
Oliver Sanders
>clone. Chocolate doom is an engine that replicates the original doom executables as closely as possible even includes original bugs, if you want to see a doom clone, check out freedoom which is very doom like with free as in freedom textures.
Joshua Long
And Windows 10 includes parts of the Linux kernel. Doesn't mean it's a Linux version.
Joshua Ross
I agree that buying a mac to install linux is dumb, but this is actually what happened:
>be huge macfag all my life >7 years ago, go to college, buy macbook pro
>5 years ago, macbook suffers form little overheating problem >go to applestore, apple says "K" and gives me new intel i7 macbook. For no cost
>now, i come in contact with the linux community, and become a GNU/linux-fag.
I havent bought any computer since 2009. And thats good
Robert Taylor
Except it is, especially when those parts are taken from the kernel. Darwin is as much a BSD as openbsd or dragonflybsd is, only difference is apple slap their proprietary frameworks ontop of it and call it os x. You can download darwin if you want it's fully open source.
Daniel Taylor
>Darwin is as much a BSD as openbsd or dragonflybsd is But it isn't. Again, Darwin uses Mach/XNU, an almost hybrid kernel that is different to any BSD kernel like OpenBSD and Dragonfly. Now, XNU can have different "personalities" or subsystems, one of them happens to be a BSD subsystem.
>You can download darwin if you want it's fully open source. Good luck trying to run recent versions on an actual machine. Apple has been slowly moving parts of the kernel into separate kexts that are proprietary.
Aaron Lewis
Dude what? You can download darwin here www.puredarwin.com im starting to feel you dont know what you're talking about.
Robert Jenkins
>OS X/Lincucks enjoy no games
Anthony Torres
Ok, do it and post results. Keep in mind I said recent versions, not versions from 8 years ago.
Lincoln Torres
I just installed gzdoom into my MacĀ® with freedoom WADs, looks pretty good. Where can I find more WADs OP? I'm also interested in the original ones, I don't mind paying for them, although the Steam version of DOOM is Windows only.
Benjamin Jenkins
>AMD What the fuck did you expect. Don't buy the recent Macbook Pro its garbage because it has AMD in it.
Brayden Myers
Im already pretty happy with the os im using which is openbsd. Besides, its you who claimed that darwin isnt open source and impossible to use, not me.
Nicholas Price
Whatever helps you sleep better at night m8.

i use this site to get wads, but i wouldn't enable scripting on this site as it seems kinda shady ( i use noscript )
Caleb Campbell
Hey, youre the special snowflake who doesnt think darwin is unix when bsd developers and the rest of the world thinks it is.
Im sure everyone's wrong except you.
Evan Brooks
>XNU is the computer operating system kernel developed at Apple Inc. since December 1996 for use in the OS X operating system and released as free and open source software as part of the Darwin operating system. XNU is an abbreviation of X is Not Unix.
Blake Reyes
>who doesnt think darwin is unix Where did I say that exactly?
Asher Gutierrez
See The Sup Forums doom thread acually gets you to find pretty cool maps.
Also google "cacowards" and choose your favourite years. Those are levelpacks awarded by the doomworld community, which hosts a lot of WAD
Nicholas Torres
Its actually org
I'll try that with qemu
Zachary Nelson
Tried 0.5.2 in osx and got 60fps. Its gzdoom fault but why??
