This is pretty big and exciting, the open source NVK driver for NVIDIA GPUs is on a path towards getting NVIDIA DLSS support.

    awesome! I really didn’t think that was possible without the proprietary drivers so I’m thrilled to be proven wrong.

      nvidia opened their driver source.

      or rather, some kid hacked them and they bit the bullet.

      so now we can have foss drivers that can use all the features.

        nvidia opened their driver source.

        Just the kernel module, dlss and such is ran in the still proprietary userspace drivers afaik

          just officially, because those leaked too. we could redo them foss right now if we didn’t have to follow bullshit copyright laws.

          so they are relying on the documentation nvidia released instead, which is not that bad tbh. i’m glad nvidia users can finally have proper drivers, even if it’s still going to take a while to write them.
