Arch Linux

@Commander

lib32-libxnvctrl and lib32-lm_sensors are also needed..but those are not available officially..so those packages have to be created via aur also, by using the i686 repos and pulling the lm_sensors and libxnvctrl from there and making them as lib32 ones

@Commander, i can try to upload, i'm not expert, i've uploaded on AUR only simply PKGBUILD

@Dea993 When you upload a lib32-glxosd to AUR then you will able to download it =)

@xpander what dependencies are missing for the 32bit?

where i can install lib32-glxosd? i can't find on AUR

this is the output of steam when i launch the witcher 2 with the option

"vblank_mode=0 optirun -b primus glxosd -s %command%"

http://pastebin.com/HaFYxbsX

if someone wants to take over the packaging for this tool, let me know.
i just don't have enough time to deal with 2 extra packages needed to make this package compatible with 32bit games on 64bit.

@Dea993
Im guessing you are running 64bit arch?
Then you need to run 32bit libs of glxosd. Run Steam from terminal and you will get your answer. Also dont post contents into chat here but put it in a pastebin =)

i've solved copying
/usr/bin/glxosd/libglxosd-plugins-nvidia-support.so.2.2.2
in
/usr/bin/glxosd/libglxosd-plugins-nvidia-support.so.2
and
/usr/bin/glxosd/libglxosd-plugins-nvidia-support.so

now works

but when i try to launch a steam game with option
glxosd -s %command%

game crash, how can i solve it?

if i try to execute glxosd with primusrun (i've an optimus notebook) i receive this error

i've tried to modify the 2 lines into /usr/bin/glxosd
but i receive these messages when i launch "glxosd glxgears" and the windows immediatly close

@Commander, seems something changed recently.. updated PKGBUILD.
should work now

@Dean993 yeah check my post.
@xpander yeah i know i think its a permission error or something because i Tried it also and it does not change it.

i receive thi error

@Commander
PKGBUILD should already take care of this with:
sed s+/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/glxosd+/usr/lib/glxosd+g -i $pkgdir/usr/bin/glxosd
sed s+/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/glxosd+/usr/lib/glxosd+g -i $pkgdir/usr/bin/glxosd

Changed /usr/bin/glxosd entries to;
GLXOSD_LIBRARY_PATH_I386="/usr/lib/glxosd/"
GLXOSD_LIBRARY_PATH_AMD64="/usr/lib/glxosd/
seems to fixed it

I'm getting ld errors.
http://codepad.org/LVUI8ZnY

This when running.
glxosd glxgears
(tried both 32bit and 64bit same issue)

Am I missing something?

@DaMadOne, no, not atm. This means 2 more packages... and i'm in the opinion that every game should be 64bit nowadays.

xpander, any plans to make this compile both 32bit and 64bit libs so it works OOB with both 32bit and 64bit games? I have done it manually as I said in a comment on the other AUR pkg before it was removed. It will unfortunatly require making AUR pkgs for both lib32-libxnvctrl and Lib32-lm_sensors since they do not exist or extracting the precompiled libs from the i686 pkgs (which is what I did). Though I don't think thats the best way to go about it. It all works great with both 32bit and 64bit games once it is done though.

@fabertawe thanks for pointing out.. made corrections to PKGBUILD, should work out of box now

As DaMadOne pointed out in the comments for glxosd before it was removed for this package - 'GLXOSD_LIBRARY_PATH_AMD64=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/glxosd' needed to be changed to 'GLXOSD_LIBRARY_PATH_AMD64=/usr/lib/glxosd' in '/usr/bin/glxosd' for me to get the full overlay, and not just FPS, as 'libglxosd-plugins-libsensors-support.so' and 'libglxosd-plugins-nvidia-support.so' were not being used.

Cheers.
