Display Manager:Wayland

WM:Hyprland

Distro:Arch

GPU:RTX 3060

Launch Options: mangohud gamemoderun gamescope -w 1920 -h 1080 -r 144 -O dp-1 -- %command%

I launch some of my games on gamescope, because some of them act weird under hyprland. And only the ones that i launch with gamescope have this problem. I've played Overwatch 2 with this setup and didn't have anything like this. The first 30 minutes or so is really smooth. 144 fps stable. But after that, in a matter of a second this happens. And whenever i move my mouse or press any keys the FPS goes down form 144 to 85-70.

Hi, I'm thinking about buying Arc Raiders. Checked on protondb to see whether it works on Linux. Says that it's platinum, and I've read people recommend it for Linux gaming. However, on the steam store it displays a kernel level anticheat banner. Shouldn't it make it unplayable on Linux?

So guys.. I am new to cachyos (linux distros with nvidia support in general.. have used ubuntu as a fun daily driver without games)

System specs :

CPU : i5 13500HX
GPU : RTX 4050 mobile
Distro : CachyOS
Driver Version: 580.105.08

I am running the game via steam.. (Tried proton 10-25, proton-cachyos-10.0-20251107)

As the title says, the game always runs in integrated GPU and not in my dedicated GPU.. (Evident from my nvidia-smi not showing the process of wuwa)

The issue is with wuwa only for now as other games are running in dGPU

My Launch Option : STEAMDECK=1 __NV_PRIME_RENDER_OFFLOAD=1 %command% (tried with -dx11 flag as well)

lmk if any other details are wanted...

I was very happy that HDR games were finally working in Gnome (Fedora 43, Gnome 49, screen settings HDR on, Steam, Gamescope with special start command) – but when I wanted to start a game today -> no HDR. Some update between three weeks ago and today broke HDR.

The launch command that has worked so far:
LD_PRELOAD="" DXVK_HDR=1 gamescope -w 3840 -h 2160 -W 3840 -H 2160 -b -f -r 120.0 --hdr-enabled --force-grab-cursor -- %command%

Gamescope version:

gamescope --version

[gamescope] [Info] console: gamescope version (gcc 15.2.1)

As far as I can see under --help, nothing has changed in the Gamescope-commands – but I suspect that an update has been installed here. Unfortunately, I don't have the version number from when it was still working. But it could also be that Gnome or something else has broken Gamescope here.

Does anyone have any ideas?

UPDATE:
Solved with downgrading gamescope from 3.16.17-2.fc43 back to 3.16.15-1.fc43
sudo dnf downgrade gamescope
So the problem is gamescope.
I think this would not be a permanent fix, but maybe that helps and maybe they will fix this...

I gave up Windows and now 100% Linux using Bazzite. So far every game I want to play works with very little issue except Fortnite.

So, I was wondering if there is a popular battle royale game that works decent on Linux with a solid player base that could fill the BR void I now have.

Hello! I'm 3 months into CachyOS, and genuinely could not wrap my head around why this is happening. I'm running WuWa on Steam, and all my other games run on dGPU just fine but for some reason WuWa just does not want to use it recently.

Even by forcing the use of dGPU through both the launch options and the AsusMuxDgpu profile on supergfxctl, it just black screens and nvidia-smi does not show the game using the dGPU. It was working perfectly the last time I opened it (which was two weeks ago). For the AsusMuxDgpu method specifically, I can hear audio and can click on the login screen, there is just no rendering from my graphics card and neither does nvidia-smi say the process is using it.

I rolled back my NVIDIA drivers to 580.76.05, and switched to the LTS kernel and still couldn't get it to work. I've tested different Proton versions too (Experimental, CachyOS SLR, CachyOS Native, GE Proton versions, and rolled back CachyOS Proton versions from when it was still working) and none of it work too.

Specs (laptop):

Distro: CachyOS 6.17.8-2 (have tested 6.12.58-2 from LTS kernel)

CPU: Intel Core i5 12500H

GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 Mobile

Did someone manage to use downloaded graphics in FM26 on Ubuntu? I have steam installed using snap, and FM path is ~/snap/steam/common/.steam/steam/steamapps/common/Football Manager 26. So my full path for graphics is following ~/snap/steam/common/.steam/steam/steamapps/common/Football Manager 26/shared/data

And inside I have kits and logos subfolders, none of that loaded when I enter the game after restart.

I made a recent post about sitting on the fence between waiting on a steam machine or building a dedicated rig for couch gaming on my 4k 120hz OLED TV.

Well, somebody suggested streaming from my current PC (Windows) to my TV instead. It was a good idea, I got Moonlight on my TV, Sunshine on my PC, and I managed to get 4k 60hz or 1440p 120hz without it shitting the bed. It felt good, almost native! The caveat was that I had to trail an Ethernet cable down the stairs into the living room.

So I thought well.. if I’m trailing an Ethernet cable, I may as well trail a HDMI cable instead. And after ALOT of settings tweaking on the TV, on Windows, on NVIDIA panel, I finally got it going at 4k 120hz, hoorah!

However, it didn’t last long. Whilst I was tweaking my tv sound settings to see if I can get my surround system working with the PC, I lost the display completely! What followed was a couple of hours of pain disabling and enabling different combinations of the settings..

Eventually I found that I had to delete 3 registry keys in:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\GraphicsDrivers\

Apparently windows caches a bunch of display stuff and so it was clashing with what I had.

So.. I thought I’d fixed it again, but then the display kept jittering, and fell back to 60hz. Changing to 120hz lost the display again. And that’s where I gave up and thought this is far too much hassle. It’s just not sustainable with all the settings changing, and then trying to keep my monitors connected and working too. And then if I wanted to move the hdmi to my partners PC to connect hers up there’d be issues again.

But the streaming was really nice, if I could get an Ethernet cable downstairs it would definitely be doable.

But honestly a dedicated Linux machine right next to my TV is appealing more than anything. Maybe I’ll stream until the steam machine releases and then reassess then.

Just a question, how is it achieving 4k 120hz on Linux, is Bazzite the best option (or SteamOS?). What about things like HDR and Dolby Atmos surround sound? Is all this possible?

Thanks!

My hope is that the Steam Machine will cost between $449 and $499 and that the bundle will include the Steam controller and the most anticipated game of all time: Half-Life 3!

https://preview.redd.it/h48a3u2b6f2g1.jpg?width=2070&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2472aab36bcab6ddfee14c3820a7c2a38982c78f

Another thing Valve could do is send the customizable front cover of the Steam Machine as a collectible and numbered item, which would be from Half-Life 3, for those who pre-order the pack (Steam Machine + Steam Controller + Half-Life 3).

That would be absurd, it would be explosive!

According to the channel Moores l is dead, which specializes in assembling hardware for companies, he added up the factory values ​​of each part and got $425. His calculation wasn't based on guesswork; he did the best study on the most likely value of the device!

Another detail was that, according to him, Valve got the GPU very cheaply, making a very good deal with AMD, which needed to get rid of a large stock of the part!

Everything points to that!

For the Steam Frame, I thought it was very cool, and since I saw that it's not a high-end product, I believe it will come at a good price! But I don't have sources on the price of the parts!

The transition to Linux has been going great, I've worked out almost all the bugs with PC and games run perfectly. One small nuisance has persisted however - whenever I boot my PC and launch Steam, I have to unmount and remount my Games disk to launch any games. Any pointers?

For context, my Games disk is a separate nvme m.2 disk from my OS disk, formatted in NTFS and using a Symlink for the Compatdata folder. It's >1TB and a carryover from my Windows install. Once I remount that partition, everything works 100%.

Hey guys (new linux user here) I ask you please be patient. I am still learning LOL. I recently made the switch to linux because well windows is absolutely retarded. My one question is for gaming. Regarding games that require Anti-Cheat. Do most of you guys Run a VM or do you Dual boot? Realistic issues i may run into would be helpful too

Bonjour,

Je suis actuellement à la recherche d'une distribution Linux sur le quel il serait possible de jouer à tout les jeux confondus, Que se soit des jeux Steam, Epic games, Ubisoft, etc. et de pouvoir jouer sur une config-full AMD. Quels sont les distributions que vous auriez à me recommandez pour la compatibilités avec une config-full AMD, et de préférence sous le kernel Debian.
