I'm not entirely sure what I thought of THRASHER but it's certainly a unique experience and it's officially out now with Linux / Steam Deck support.

So, I just recently made the switch to linux mint and I'm getting better at understanding it bit by bit. However, I really want to play cyberpunk 2077 with the mods I had. I've been having non stop issues with trying to launch it. First with it crashing and shutting down my pc when loading the shaders which I fixed. Now it just won't launch at all through the app and Im getting this error whenever I try. My library is located on a secondary drive which has been format to ext4, with a path that leads from home to that secondary drive. I know the probably has to do with the fact that the mod list is located on under compatdata which has pfx -> Drive_C. Please help because I am at a loss on how to fix this.

Hello, when I launch GTA IV on Artix, I get an error saying it can’t connect to Rockstar Games Services. Then, when I click offline mode, another error appears, and the game won’t launch because of it. A few days ago, everything was working fine. I’m running the game through GE-Proton10-25. I also tried uninstalling and reinstalling the game, but it still doesn’t work. I also tried deleting the prefix folder. I hope someone can help me

Hey everyone, hope you're all well.

So I hadn't gamed in about 3 years (life, work, you know how it is). Was a bit tired of Android games, to be honest. Decided to get back into retro gaming, downloaded RetroArch, and immediately remembered why I stopped—spent 2 hours configuring shaders and settings instead of actually playing anything.

Made it worse by messing up the config and having to start over. By the time I figured it out, it was too late and my old bones were like, "nah, bedtime" lol (late 30s don't play around; it's hard to stay up as each year goes on).

So while dealing with a hangover and staring at my roof as I usually do when I need answers, I thought "there's gotta be a better way to do this." Called up a friend, went to his place, and we mapped out an AI companion idea over beers—something that could actually help with RetroArch configs instead of making you Google the same stuff every time. Now don't get me wrong, it's not fully perfected yet, but it's getting there.

Few months later (and a LOT of testing with friends), PixelPal is done.

What it does:

• Assists with RetroArch/emulator configuration, also trying to get some configs for controller setup, making it a lot easier to set up different controllers
• Manages your game library (supports 6 console types currently; will be adding more console type support)
• Tracks what you're playing and recommends games based on your library
• Built-in offline capabilities for extra privacy (though I suggest using OpenRouter API for now)
• Train it on your own data to personalize responses
• Linux only for now (because that's what I use and fully tested on linux)

Still v1.0, so expect some rough edges, but it's functional. Was a bit tired of the full setup hassle. A lot of learning, and most importantly, it was fun to build. You're more than welcome to check it out on Itch.io as well. I hope you have as much fun using it as I had building it.

I'm currently utilizing Bazzite as an entry point into gaming onto Linux as an OS. there are games that I wish to play that are easily accessible through Windows. But when I try and use Bottles to play games it refuses to add the game OR the application into bottles library. one such app was the EA App. While i do have the EA app running on the Heroic game launcher this is more specifically for Private server World of Warcraft games. this is one of the few things that keeps me tied to Windows and if i can get this part down i'm scrubbing windows on my PCs and starting fresh. what am i doing wrong with bottles that is preventing games/apps from being installed and appearing in the library portion of bottles?

If you need any info i'm happy to provide anything requested.

When I launch Minecraft with Zink enabled via PrismLauncher, the game is capped to my monitor's refresh rate. I have been using Zink with Minecraft for a while now and before today it was not capping my FPS. After disabling Zink and re-launching the game, My FPS is uncapped again. I thought a graphics driver update may have caused this, but my last driver update was 10 days ago.

Before you ask, I have both VSync and the max framerate setting off. I also considered that one of my mods may be the cause, but after disabling all of them the issue is still occurring.

I'm not sure how to go about fixing this, and any help would be appreciated.

Hello,

Specs: 5800x3d / RTX4070S / Ubuntu 24.04 / nvidia-open 580.95.05

I have two monitors with differents refresh rate, with X11 things goes a little bit crazy so I'm trying to get wayland to work. Overall using wayland on the desktop it seems smoother.

I found I can open Steam only after disabling "GPU accelerated rendering in web views".

But after that, every games seems to not using the GPU at all when on wayland : I went from 120fps on CS2 and PEAK on X11 to 7-8 fps on wayland, same even for really small games (all linux native).

Which problem can it be? I asked ChatGPT but aside for telling me "nvidia + wayland = bad", the rest of its answer is garbage.

I don't have much leads but what I can tell:

• $XDG_SESSION_TYPE is indeed wayland
• nvidia-smi reports the correct driver / informations
• ps -ef | grep Xwayland reports the game running through xwayland : /usr/bin/Xwayland :1 -rootless -noreset -accessx -core -auth /run/user/1000/.mutter-Xwaylandauth.7CTBG3 -listenfd 4 -listenfd 5 -displayfd 6 -initfd 7 -byteswappedclients 16552 Z:\home\myuser\.local\share\Steam\steamapps\common\PEAK\PEAK.exe -force-d3d11
• when available for games i tried the DX11 and Vulkan, same result.

Any idea would be great!

Good day every one, I recently switched from Windows 10 to Fedora workstation, so far I'm loving it, I use bottles as my game launcher and I'm trying to install Skyrim legendary edition, I set up everything correctly and when I launch it's setup it does launch to the choose language screen but when I click next it gives me this error (runtime error at 108 166 could not call proc) I tried installing common dependencies like Microsoft visual++ 2010/12/13 and directx DLLs, but still same, what could be the issue? I'm running wine v9, I was able to run oblivion this way

Hi, I am using bazzite with a rx 9070xt and a ryzen 5800X.

This should be more than enough to run the game at max settings 60 FPS at 4k.

The problem is that no matter what settings/resolution I am using, the GPU usage stays at max 50%, and usually below.

I tried changing proton versions and nothing helped. For a mater of fact, using proton GE seems to give a worse performance.

I did try online and offline mode, also no dice.

I also tried to use corectl or LACT to increase the gpu minimum clock....but for some reason the option to change the gpu clock is not present there at all.

I have everything updated and I am at a loss. Almost every game runs perfectly on bazzite, yet elden ring is behaving like this.

I also did look through all the endless posts about the poor performance, but nothing helped.
