So...how did you get that damn partition working?? I've just tried it. Which required me an EFI partition of at least 600MB. I already had it at 500MB but apparently it didn't think that was enough...So I had to reinstall all of windows in order to resize the EFI. Then Nobara installer was happy when I chose the EFI partition as "/boot/efi", and 500GB at the end of the same SSD as "/". After a reinstall, reboot...and it goes to Windows. Ugh. Manually choosing from the BIOS the new "Fedora" entry I get a grub crash. start_image returned "not found"...Wtf? For a "simplified" installation, this is resulting quite the PITA.
EDIT: OMG...figured it out, but holy cow. The installer is rather borked. It demands 600MB for /boot/efi, which at least this, it warns you of. BUT. It will install without warnings a full system and then crap out, if you ignore a very specific requisite not mentioned anywhere during the install! You need at least a 1GB ext4 partition somewhere for /boot. Ignore this, and you're crapped.
Oh wow, that sounds fucked up. I don’t remember the ext4 requirement for /boot but after reading your comment the EFI stuff came back to me. I also thought it was weird and painful.
Anyway, glad you sorted it out. It should (hopefully) be smooth sailing from here.
Sigh...Thanks. I wish it was. I just ran the same Alan Wake install on the provided Lutris and well...the Textures are indeed fixed, I can see the FBI jackets and the faces look better...but now performance is abysmal, with frame drops to 10-15fps (1080p all max)...and RT is not even enabled (still grayed out), checked both in Wayland and X11. I think for a 7800XT I should be getting much better as long as RT or Path Tracing is not running.
EDIT: Seems this happens only with AW2. Cyberpunk and Starfield seem to have similar performance as before. So there's something going on with AW2 in Nobara.
It’s a fairly new game. The WINE and Proton devs might still be working out kinks.
I couldn’t even find it in ProtonDB.
You could also test different Proton versions.
Proton-GE 8-22 had a fix for HDR on AW2, so there’s definitely people looking into it.
