565 release feedback & discussion

Hello, I would like to report that games with Proton are still experiencing freezes. Both Nvidia 560 and 565 experience freezes in games.

In the last few weeks I have been playing on nvidia 555.58.02-16 without any issues.
On version 560, and today I had the opportunity to test on 565 (more specifically aur nvidia) freezes still happens.

The moment when the freeze occurs varies a little from game to game. In Euro Truck Simulator 2 it always froze on the start menu, in Bioshock 2 Remaster it usually happened every one hour. And today, testing on Monster Hunter Rise (nvidia 565.57.01-2) the freeze occurred twice in less than an hour.

Also, here are some posts I found that also report this freezing issue:

and especially this one

Once again, I reinforce that freezes never occur in previous versions (versions 555 and below). I downgraded the drivers to continue playing without any problems, and I’m reporting this because I haven’t read any reports in this thread about this issue in the new version.

Some info:
OS: Arch Linux x86_64 - XFCE4 - X11
Kernel: Linux 6.10.5-arch1-1
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 Mobile 4VRAM
Proton-Experimental [bleeding-edge] for Steam games.
