Yaaayyyy. Also, what's the Apache server for?

Messaggio originale di martinoj2009:

Yaaayyyy. Also, what's the Apache server for?

Probably to make builds easier for build dependencies when they generate iso. If curious, run this in a terminal:

apt-cache depends apache* | less

That's vertical pipe after * , not an L

I asked this in the last update thread but never got an answer so I'll ask it again. Will we ever have the option to roll back drivers on SteamOS?
https://www.gamingonlinux.com/articles/this-xcom-2-video-shows-linux-and-windows-very-close-in-performance.6674

Through the development of this video, I obtained results I didn't think I would. I went into this expecting the usual 20% upwards to 50% loss of performance with the Linux title versus the base Windows title.

At first, the 361 driver on Linux gave me those kinds of results. Then I tested the 358 drivers, and it's a world of difference! To note, this same driver on Windows makes no difference. I have a feeling we've lost performance on the Linux driver due to the recent addition of GLVND.
