gamescope doesn't run on NVIDIA
I'm trying to run glxgears inside gamescope:
gamescope -W 1920 -H 1080 -- glxgears
and I get the following output:
No CAP_SYS_NICE, falling back to regular-priority compute and threads.
Performance will be affected.
vulkan: selecting physical device 'NVIDIA GeForce 940MX'

Graphics card: NVIDIA GeForce 940MX NVIDIA version: 515.43.04 Gamescope version: 3.11.31.beta4.r6.g97288b8-1 Distribution: Archlinux
Try (1st line of logs complains about it):
# setcap 'cap_sys_nice=eip' /usr/bin/gamescope
With root privileges.
Keep in mind open issue: #492
Using gamescope-git on my archlinux build it does work. However the frame rate is reduced to near unplayable levels on all titles tested from dying light to half life and they all excibit horrid screen tear. Edit: gamescope -W 1920 -H 1080 -- vkquake works fine and performance is good with no tearing. I get the same issues as noted above if I use gamescope from lutris. It also locks my res to 640x480. changing res forces it to 1080p and gives me issues once again. i am using hdmi 2.1 if it matters
@LethalManBoob I guess better to put this report into #492, instead of this issue.
Seems like the same issue here.

Yes, also facing same issue, same settings and nvidia drivers, same distro.
Also having this issue with an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 Mobile on Arch Linux running master
Edit: not the same, I actually get
vulkan: vkCreateDevice failed (VkResult: -7)
Same issue here, also with mobile GPU.

Seems like the same as this bug #498
I made it somewhat work in nested mode by setting nvidia prime variables, i.e:
$ __NV_PRIME_RENDER_OFFLOAD=1 __GLX_VENDOR_LIBRARY_NAME=nvidia __VK_LAYER_NV_optimus=NVIDIA_only gamescope -e -f -- steam
And games launched that way will be rendered by the Nvidia card (checked with nvidia-smi).
Embedded mode doesnt work, no matter if those variables are set.
If anyone wonders. The chaotic aur version of gamescope-git is what I used. Usually chaotic aur is more up to date than the -git foundi n the normal aur
Was testing, like suggested from Samsagax, but with -Y flag because of Nvidia GPU: __NV_PRIME_RENDER_OFFLOAD=1 __GLX_VENDOR_LIBRARY_NAME=nvidia __VK_LAYER_NV_optimus=NVIDIA_only gamescope -Y -- glxgears
Still same error like in my last post: error getting buffer
And: Window with Gears is NOT showing
Setup is still the same, like in my last post: (Gamescope git Version from 18.05.2022, Nvidia 3050 Laptop GPU)

I believe to get past that error you need to use the gamescope-git package, right now. The last comment I saw you make mentioned gamescope 3.11.30-1 but the fixes for NVIDIA were in 3.11.31 Although, I think I had an address boundary error and not just core dumped for the last line. You should also run setcap 'cap_sys_nice=eip' /usr/bin/gamescope .
It's also failing for me:

I had this issue too, switching to the gamescope-git version of the package solved the issue.
I have a GTX 1060 6gb and it seems to work.

on lutris its greyed out
running optimus with intel
weirdly enough it runs with ENABLE_VKBASALT=1 i.e.:
ENABLE_VKBASALT=1 gamescope -h 1058 -H 1800 -U vkcube
but it locks cursor inside the window and stutters from time to time
I am seeing the same output as @severinkaderli after removing Optimus Manager from my system. I am on Garuda and just replaced their garuda-optimus-manager-config package with garuda-nvidia-prime-config, and now gamescope refuses to launch with prime-run variables. I compared the two packages and tried to find any other variables, but Optimus Manager seems to be doing something that Gamescope requires to work on my system.

Optimus setups are a different kind of animal (and they seem to be forgotten by NV). Try the suggested variables setting in #498 I managed to get it working on the nested case.
The referenced variables are set by the prime-run script that I mentioned. Gamescope actually runs through my intel iGPU if I don't set those variables, except for the color corruption referenced in #356, but crashes entirely if I try to run on Nvidia via prime.
As explained here, I have tried NVIDIA driver 515.57 on Wayland (GNOME 42, GBM backend) with both the latest gamescope git and a specific commit that was said to work. Neither works. I get the "DRM format 0x3231564E" error as everyone else.
https://github.com/Plagman/gamescope/issues/492#issuecomment-1178536432
This is some kind of regression. That exact format was supported by NVIDIA on an earlier gamescope build or earlier NVIDIA driver. Not sure if the regression is in NVIDIA driver or in gamescope.
I've already verified that the modeset flag is set: cat /proc/cmdline | grep nvidia-drm.modeset=1
You can see some other user's log here which shows that the exact format WAS supported in whatever NVIDIA driver and gamescope version they used back then: https://github.com/Plagman/gamescope/issues/492#issuecomment-1140080513 (Or perhaps they were running it on X11 and it's Wayland version that's broken? No idea.)
perhaps they were running it on X11 and it's Wayland version that's broken?
In my case I am trying to run in Wayland, but I have verified that it is broken in X11 (bspwm) as well
