Does anybody know how to fix a game that won't open when downloaded?
Dualsense Haptic Feedback half fix?
My dearest Linux-Community!
Today, after 18 hours of troubleshooting and installing stuff that did nothing for me, i finally was able to fix a problem, that was bothering me for way to long. I tried three different Distro (Mint,Cachyos,Nobara) for a Problem that is till this day barely mentioned, first world problems i guess.
Via the link I was able to find a half solution and maybe there is someone out there to help me and other Dualsense ULTRAS out.
Helvum is the way, and tabbed out of the game, the haptics finally work. But when i am ingame the controllers LEDs change (steaminput turned off) and for some reason even though Helvum is still active the controllers haptics wont work anymore. It only works tabbed out. If there is a good soul out there please help me! I really dont want to go back to Windows.

I made a programming farming game. It’s finally hitting 1.0 soon! I'm already feeling nervous haha
SignalRGB just told me Linux support is in their plans
Hey folks,
I asked SignalRGB yesterday if they were ever going to support Linux. They just replied to me today and said:
“We don’t have a Linux release yet, but it’s in our plans. No ETAs though.”
That’s honestly awesome to hear. I know we already have OpenRGB, but it’s not as polished or feature-rich as SignalRGB. Knowing they’re planning Linux support made my day, so I thought I’d share it here.
Even if it takes time, it’s nice to know they’re listening to the Linux community.

FlatOut from GOG on Lutris fail
Hello community! Despite all the people saying that gaming on Linux these days is basically seamless, I've had a lot of frustrating experiences. My last one involves FlatOut (a classic I loved as a child) on MX Linux. I'm running an HP 355 G2 with AMD A8-6410 APU and integrated graphics. I installed the game in Linux mode (installing it on Wine threw and error and couldn't complete the installation. Error 256 I believe, but I#m not sure). Anyway, when I launch the game nothing happens. The log records the following, which I can't decypher unfortunately, other that wine just exits for some reason.
I hope somebody can help me figure out this one.

Remote play together black screen
Hi. I am trying to remote play together between linux and windows pcs. It works fine when the Windows PC is the host. But when it's the other way round there's a black screen on the windows pc. I can hear the sound of the game and player 2 controller works. Just cant see the game.
Any ideas? I've tried disabling hardware encoder. Still no joy.

Do I really need shaders?
The take up a lot of space and take ages to compile for some games, do I really need them? I see very little performance difference
My specs are:
RTX 3060 12gb
Ryzen 5600

DualSense Controller fails to connect
Hi everybody, I run EndeavorOS, and upon recommendation from somebody here I bought a DualSense controller last Christmas I think. Things have been great with it! Until now. It will no longer pair or connect.
I stopped using it for a while because my life got too busy for gaming, but then Silksong released and I have time again, so I dusted it off and wanted to play, and when I pressed the PS button to get it to connect, it timed out, with my PC not really reacting to it. Whenever I would get it to connect, the status LEDs on the DualSense would not change colour and the connection would fail a second later.
I really don't have much more info on this, since I don't really get any errors besides "connection failed", and I am too much of a noob to know how to get anything more specific (if you do please tell me!!)
My current attempts to fix have been:
- install dualsensectl
- forget device in bluetooth menu, readd it
- wait for kernel update & then update and reboot (did that today)
None of these fixed anything, so I thought there might be an issue with the drivers, and I tried searching for the driver package's name and only found "hid-playstation", which I can't find installed or in the pacman repo or AUR.
Is anybody else experiencing this, if so, is there a known fix, or do you have an idea what it could be? Is it more likely that something in my kernel is fucked (fine I guess, I can kinda deal with that), or my DualSense is having issues (terrible). Maybe it needs a firmware update...? If so, how do you do that (without a PS5)?
it still works via USB but I bought the thing because I did not want to have a cable in my way 24/7 so I really don't consider that even a temporary fix.
Sorry if this post is a mess, I hope it doesn't violate Rule 2, I really don't know where else to go with this.
Stuff that I think might be good to know:
bluez version: 5.83-1
kernel: EndeavorOS version 6.12.46-1-lts

The Finals adds Denuvo anti-cheat WITHOUT the DRM, and using anybrain machine learning to catch Cheaters.
Borderlands 4 doesnt look to well, 30 FPS on a 5800X/7900XT at 3440x1440 without upscaling. Gotta run at 720p just to hit 60
The frametime graph is insane
Lowest settings only gives a 15FPS boost; 45FPS

fossiilize_replay cooks my CPU
I don't know where to post this, but I need to vent. I only run Linux and this happens when I game, so...
I have a Ryzen 9700X which on paper is a 65 watt CPU, though it can go higher - 80 watt or so - when using all cores simultaneously.
It is cooled by a Be Quiet! Shadow Rock 3, which ostensibly should be able to disperse 250 watt. The fan profile is tuned for idle silence, but it does ramp to 100% beyond 80°C. The CPU throttles thermally at 95°C.
Now - I cannot make this system go beyond 75°C even with a "stress -c 16" running at the same time as Furmark is hammering the vidcard.
But when Steam updates Vulcan or whatever, fossilize_replay (shader precaching) starts running on several cores. And the CPU temperature goes to 97°C and the CPU fan panics!
How is this even possible? What manner of dark magic can cause an 80W CPU to overload a 250 W CPU cooler? What circuits is that process deploying that can cause such thermal spikes when no other program I have ever run manages the same?
I even put a second old fan I had in a box on the cooler to help it out, running at a constant low speed. That only made my idle temps are even lower, fossilize_replay (and only that) still causes extreme temperatures.
While I am at it: how do I kill fossilize_replay? It does not heed killall, sudo kill -9, gnome-system-monitor, or quitting Steam - it just restarts itself. "Sorry boss, I was not done here!". I have to do it several times, wildly killalling and kill -9:ing and so on, repeatedly and randomly, before the processes disappear from the list.
Evil @£$"#¤% software!

AC Unity - ACU Fixes and ReShade don't work properly together
FYI I installed ReShade as ACU Fixes requires d3dcompiler_47 to run it.
They both work at the start of the game, but when I start playing it will reduce my resolution screen and I'll be able to see my desktop. When I do Alt + Enter to go back to fullscreen, ACU Fixes will stop working. How can I fix this?

MangoHud horizontal
For anyone who might not know, you can display MangoHud in horizontal (e.g. top left corner)
In that way it takes less space, is less distracting and doesn't annoy with overlaping anything of the game.
If you want to look yours the same? Just put these lines into your MangoHud.conf
gpu_stats
gpu_temp
cpu_stats
cpu_temp
ram
fps
frame_timing
font_size=18
font_size_text=18
hud_no_margin
hud_compact
horizontal
no_display
background_alpha=0

I have hit first road block
It has been few good months of Linux gaming since I switched from windows. I have two gaming PCs (Fedora and Bazzite) and Steam Deck and everything just worked. Up until now...
I took out my Fanatec wheel form the closed just to find there is no driver support for that wheel...
Well there is a third party kernel driver but you need to compile it yourself. I could probably make it work on Fedora, but not Bazzite.
I would not consider going back to windows, more likely switch to a wheel that has Linux support. But I don't think there is any except Logitech which is not comparable to Fanatec.
