Another one is FreeCS
https://www.phoronix.com/news/FreeCS-Open-Counter-Strike
https://github.com/eukara/FreeCS
There is also AssaultCube Reloaded
https://acr.victorz.ca/
And Urban Terror
https://www.urbanterror.info/home/
Dunno if it's comparable to CSGO

Another possibility is kernel.cafe. Don't know if it still exists. I will see.

You'll find some CSGO repos on GitHub like Kisak-Strike

You could try a Riser Cable, like this

Doom 3 should also work on POWER9

That's a very good idea, too.

GPU Compute / Accelerators / Re: Which GPU would *you* choose?
« on: August 10, 2022, 10:54:52 am »
Any of these cards should working. What is your concern? 64K issue is solved since Kernel 5.10.101. I have a RDNA1.
Do you own one of these cards already?
The only cards aren't working are RDNA2. But Raptor is working on it.

I know someone in Hungary who would certainly be very happy about it. Unfortunately he doesn't have the money to ever buy a Blackbird. He is a developer and connected to Open Source of course.
If he would be suitable for you, send me a PN.

GPU Compute / Accelerators / Re: Necessary firmware for Navi14
« on: August 06, 2022, 07:44:47 am »
And one more thing. When you blacklist the AST GPU on boot, then you don't need a xorg config file at all.
You only need the config file when you're using the AST GPU (for high resolution) or if you don't blacklist the amdgpu or AST GPU.
BUT on Void you have to blacklist the other GPU otherwise it won't work. Anyway it's the better solution to blacklist one of the GPUs.

The same is written on the Wiki.
On Void you can choose active Kernels like 5.4 / 5.10 / 5.15 / 5.18.
All needed patches on Void are included. Means you don't need "amdgpu.aspm=0" anymore. Apart from Kernel 5.15.x, IIRC.
Edit: Already added in Kernel 5.15.54. 5.16 and 5.17 are already EOL.

On Void Linux it's up-to-date
https://github.com/void-ppc/void-packages/tree/master/srcpkgs/vscode
CodeBlocks is also a possibility.

General OpenPOWER Discussion / Re: Arctic Tern user manual posted
« on: July 29, 2022, 04:56:17 pm »I agree. But I think it's better to think of Arctic Tern as a dev board rather than the final "make the boot fast" commercial product.
Although the software/gateware may not currently support it, the Arctic Tern was clearly designed with a lot of other neat features in mind (*). It's priced with margins appropriate for a low-volume development board.
I can definitely see a future stripped-down bare bones "just speed up the boot process" version consisting of just the AT1MB1, the FSI adapter, and a $10 adapter PCB.
Absolutely! No blame from my side. A development board is for developers. I'm also hoping for a striped-down version in the future. It was also the right decision to release the DB first.

It's mandatory.
