[Question] Nvidia 570 drivers and "DirectX12 unsupported" issue (lemmy.ml)

submitted 2 months ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

I updated my nvidia driver to 570 and now some games that worked fine previously present the error: direct x 12 is unsupported on this computer.

I see lots of others having this same issue but no solutions.

Has anybody figured out a fix?

I'm on Fedora so there doesn't seem to be any straightforward way to rollback the driver.

I remember reading somewhere that drivers beyond 550* may have some issues with linux right now. I might consider rolling them back to a version that was already working.

*Citation needed, but it was a lower version than what is currently the latest available

That's what I was hoping to do but it's really difficult on Fedora for some reason.

Arch and Ubuntu you can specify the driver version, but the Fedora method is dnf install akmod-nvidia with no other available options (unless you want legacy drivers for really old hardware).

To my further frustration, any amount of searching just leads to a ton of AI generated slop articles.
