Howdy,

I'm getting a weird visual artifact on Cyberpunk 2077. When I stand still or move in a straight line (any direction) the graphics are perfect - but when i turn (i.e. with the mouse), the visuals stutter in an unusual way. The frame rate doesn't drop and stays at a stable 55ish. It looks like old frames are interleaved with new frames? It creating this really jarring, jitter that almost feels like cross-eyed or something.

Normally I would troubleshoot this myself, but I'm having a lot of trouble actually finding similar issues on google. The words I would use to describe this keep leading me to people who get that that ghosting effect from frame gen tools, or just straight up have unstable / low frame rates.

Hardware:

• GPU: RTX 5070 Ti
• CPU: Ryzen 7 9800x3d
• RAM: 32 GB DDR5
• Display: MSI G274QPF E2 (2560x1440, 180 Hz, Display Port)

Software:

• Distro: EndeavourOS
• Kernel: Linux 6.18.2-arch2-1
• Driver: nvidia-open-dkms 590.48.01-1
• CUDA 13.1
• Proton: proton-experimental

Game settings:

• VSync 180 hz
• res: 2560x1440
• fullscreen
• HDR: none
• Nvidia Reflex: on + boost
• res scaling: off
• frame gen: off
• ray tracing: ON, max
• motion blur: off
• everything else: ON, max

Turning on frame gen + motion blur smooths things out, but I'm pretty sure that's just post-processing literally blurring out the jitters (not actually fixing the bad frames). None of the other graphics or video settings seem to really effect the jitter.

Would really appreciate any advice here, I'm kind of running low on ideas.

Back when I used Linux Mint my wired xbox controller automatically turned on when I booted up my PC, but with openSUSE I have to manually pull out the cable and put it back on to turn it on. Is there a way to turn it on automatically on boot?

Hello, I just got a Quest 3S super cheap but when I tried to play wirelessly off my PC using Steam Link with SteamVR beta, ALVR, and WiVRn only Phasmophobia of the six I tried would run the game proper. With mic problems, but my friends and I have encountered mic problems a ton with that game so that's probably what that is at least.

The rest start up but then the stream dies as soon as it starts actually taxing the hardware, usually as soon as I've loaded past the main menu and into the game I'm playing. I've tried a number of things, including lowering graphical settings, increasing bandwith, messing with a bunch of random settings while troubleshooting across the three separate programs (ugh), and while there's still a lot of stuff to try but I frankly do not have any more time or energy for a deep dive on this when I can just use a cord instead.

So I guess my question is, is wireless VR being rough a general Linux thing and using an isolated Windows install on a different drive just for VR would save me the pain? Or is this just a wireless VR thing in general? I'm not thrilled at the prospect of using any version of Windows, but if VR folks around here have a setup that works great for them I'd love to hear about it.

Thanks in advance!

Edit: Hardware details might be important lol. Ryzen 7800X3D, Nvidia 4060, 32GB RAM, Bazzite Desktop using KDE Plasma. We have fiber with a high end router I was right next to while I was testing all this so while it might be related it's not a simple bad connection.

Hey everyone, how's it going?

I recently searched for some distros to play games on and came across Garuda OS. I installed it and have been playing on it, which has considerably improved performance in all games!

I'm having problems with Outward. I play with mods using R2MODMAN and it also runs wonderfully well in terms of performance.

Occasionally the game freezes, even though there's no lag, with the graphics settings at maximum. Sometimes it happens when I'm walking around the map, sometimes on the loading screen when I enter a new area, it's completely arbitrary.

I'd like some guidance on whether I need to add Steam ARGS, change distros, modify any installation... I don't understand much about how to debug in this case, so any information you need to help me, just tell me what to do and I'll provide it. Thanks in advance!

Hello, I have a laptop that I would like to convert to a gaming environment like SteamOS.

I've been looking at various operating systems such as CachyOS Deckify, Bazzite, HoloISO and Chimera.

I wanted to know which system you recommend I use in my case.

Specs: Asus Tuf FX505DT, Ryzen 5 3550H, GTX 1650, 16GB DDR4

I’ve been a DevOps engineer for a while. I use Ubuntu because that’s the ecosystem I know. I installed Steam, drivers, and libraries, and everything just worked.

It was like 3 commands that you can ask ChatGPT for.

What am I missing here? Why is it that every time I see a post from this sub, you’re all selling some new unstable distro?

I've always loved Linux, having started on Slackware way back in the day, but I've always loved gaming. So Linux has always been a part of my life but only on the sidelines: on work computers, laptops and servers. But never my "daily driver", as it were.

As Microsoft moves to axe a whole generation of completely viable computers so they can really cash in on data mining? I'm looking to make the transition. The problem? League of Legends.

Yeah I know it won't run on the penguin for many years to come if ever so I'm looking for recommendations on alternatives. Not just for Moba, but anything that's: Not fps 20-40 minute round/matches Multiplayer Not Minecraft (that's how I lose two hours)

The reason I love League is that I can play with my girls for 20-30 minutes, the match will end, and I can get back to being productive. I don't want to have to invest hours upon hours to enjoy the game. Also since I have the time management skills of a highly caffeinated sloth, having clear beginnings/endings to gameplay is key.

So, any suggestions?

When installing a Linux distro on a new PC that has Windows pre-installed, you can ask the manufacturer for a refund of the Windows licence, since you are not using it.

This is mandatory in the EU according to the 2011/83/UE directive.

There is a 14 days delay after purchase to ask for the refund. I read that the refund could go up to 50€, which is pretty nice.

Did any of you ask for it ? What was the reply of the manufacturer?

I would like to create a small website to help send an email automatically. What do you think ? Does it exist already ?

I want to try to mod fallout 4, 99% of my games work fine through proton but there isn't much info on modding. I use manjaro.

EDIT: totally forgot to mention that this is about Steam

I got a new PC on Christmas and I wanted to try out Linux using it, scpeciffically ZorinOS.

I want to take the 1TB HDD from my old Windows PC and add it to the new one.

But sadly I'm not even at this step since I have Problems adding a new library folder (see picture).

If I give it all file permissions via Flatseal (as I found online) it still doesn't work and when I try to restart Steam, it wont start until I reset the Permissions.

How do you execute unity games?, recently i downloaded a game thats meant to run with unity from google, thing is idk what file is the .exe file and within the filers there is a unityplayer.so file but it tells me it needs an app to run, i downloaded unity hub but nothing changed, only now when i run unityplayer.so it redirects me to unity hub but only because i manually did it once.

im using linux mint zara for all of this and i dont know if i need any programs from software manager or i just installed the wrong unity

I HAVE looked and googled for a solid hour before resorting to reddit but it didnt get me anywhere other than downloading unity hub

Thanks for your patience and attention

I'm currently dual-booting arch and windows. When running cs2 on arch it feels very choppy, like it's running at 60hz (monitor is 100hz and settings say 100hz), while on windows it runs super smooth. I should also add I have limited FPS to 130. Turning on vsync on arch helps and makes it smooth but adds a lot of input lag, so either way it's unplayable.

However, Mafia 3 seems to run the complete opposite. On Arch it's butter smooth with maximum FPS set to 100 while it runs like crap and is very choppy on windows even with unlimited fps.

Any ideas? This is extremely frustrating to me, I'd prefer to keep all games in one place, either arch or windows and not have to boot into a different OS depending on the game I wanna play. TIA

I’m using an Xbox Elite controller and for connecting it, I use xpadneo. Sometimes while playing games, the controller will just randomly disconnect briefly and reconnect afterwards. I’m using linux mint 22.2 and the kernel is 6.14.0-37-generic.
