[SOLVED] NTSYNC kernel support

as per 6.15.5-artix1-1 kernel
There is no ntsync module load in rc.log
There is no /dev/ntsync
So kernel hasn't patched with ntsync patches?
I want my mtv ntsync

You can load it with modprobe or put it in a .conf file in /etc/modules-load.d

Code: [Select]
$ sudo modprobe ntsync

$ su                                                                                                                                           [12:01:45]
Password: 
$ echo ntsync > /etc/modules-load.d/ntsync.conf          

Does proton support NTSYNC yet ?

I've tested both linux-zen and linux-cachyos (via the aur). Both have ntsync support. I am currently using it.

I haven't tested the base default. But checking on the PKGBUILD it is included as a module. The same goes for linux-zen and linux-cachyos.

So you need to enable it.

To try it out just follow what gripped says.

Just to elaborate a bit. The first command he mentioned enables it on the current session (doesn't apply at the next reboot). The third makes it permanent and available on next reboots.

Edit: The second command logs you into root.

Not that I know of, but it is enabled on proton-ge. Currently using it.

Great! Solved!

Trying PROTON_USE_NTSYNC=1 for steam's forza horizon 4 and ge-proton10.9. No joy. Game starts with small fh4 screen and quits right after. It works w/o PROTON_USE_NTSYNC=1 for ge-proton10.9.
No warnings or errors when running steam via terminal.
(tried linux-zen with no joy either)

Edit:
seems like fh4 specific issue here. Anyone else tried ntsync + ge-proton10.9 for fh4?
