Just thought I should share this. Got the annoying GUI crash dialog pop up everyone else has gotten. Entered the code below and it worked. No more pop ups.

How do I disable the GUI crash dialog?

Wine includes a GUI crash dialog that is turned on by default. Users of apps that work despite a background crash may find the GUI dialog annoying, and in some cases the dialog itself has been reported to prevent an app from working.

The easiest way to disable the crash dialog is with winetricks:

sh winetricks nocrashdialog

If you prefer to do it manually, copy the following key to a text editor:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wine\WineDbg] "ShowCrashDialog"=dword:00000000

Save the file with a .reg extension (e.g. crashdialog.reg), then apply it with regedit:

wine regedit crashdialog.reg

(You may need to specify the full path to the file, depending on where you saved it.)

To turn the GUI crash dialog back on, change 00000000 to 00000001 and reapply.

These changes can also be made by simply running regedit and adding/changing the appropriate key the point-and-click way.

Hi guys. I've been gaming on Linux for 3 years now, started with PopOS the first year then moved to EndeavourOS and stayed there until now.

During my time, I've always ran full-blown DEs: GNOME with PopOS (cosmic wasn't a thing back then) and KDE now on Endeavour.

I've grown some interest lately on Waybar compositors (Hyprland, Niri ...) and Quickshell configs and ricing them. My experience with DEs has been 99% perfect, but I'm worried that switching to those options might bring some gaming related headaches along the way. So

To the ones using them, have you had any problems with gaming?
Could I use my current KDE installation, install Niri for example and change between sessions within SDDM if I have any problems?
Do I have to consider anything while using them?

My rig is full AMD, if that matters

Nothing special was really needed. All I had to do was mount the ISO, setup a Bottle for it (Just the default gaming one) and away I went.

This isn't using any wrappers or workarounds. I can also run it fullscreen perfectly too but I ran it in a Wine Virtual desktop here to show you it with all the info.

The only thing that does not work is MIDI music sadly, but the sounds work perfectly.

No glitches, no slowdowns, no weird colours. It runs beautifully.

Yes this is the original Doom95, one of the first ever Doom source ports made back in 1995 by ID Software themselves!

Yes I am aware that I can use the hundreds of other Linux native source ports, and I do... but I was curious and wanted to try out exactly how compatible Wine is compared to modern Windows... and Wine wins again! This usually has great trouble running in modern windows without using DirectX wrappers.

Hello good! I'm looking for an ambidextrous or left-handed mouse with 4 accessible buttons since I mainly play Deadlock and find it very convenient to use mouse skills. I currently have the Razer Nega Left Handed Edition mouse and it's not that I don't like it but it feels too heavy. I've been thinking about the Logitech G903 but it doesn't seem like the 4 side buttons are as accessible as on the G300s. Any recommendations? Thanks in advance!

Je suis entrain d'essayer d'installer un "demake" pour Helldivers 2.

Pour cela, il faut utiliser Reshade. J'ai donc chercher a l'installer.

Mais, quand je fait la commande d'éxécution (./reshade-linux.sh), le programme cherche des mises à jours (jusqu'à la, rien d'anormal) et il se stop, en disant "Error: Could not download version 6.6.2 of ReShade. Exiting." Puis le programme s'arrête net. Je ne peux pas donc l'installer sur mon jeu.

Et je n'ai trouvé aucunes infos sur quelqu'un qui aurais eu le même problème.

(je suis sous Ubuntu 24.04.3 LTS)

Hi r/linux_gaming!

I'm the dev behind Austraoxe. I posted a screenshot yesterday, but I wanted to show the actual 3D environment for the main menu.

Important Note: There is no UI yet (buttons/text). I am just showcasing the geometry and the lighting mood.

Since my daily driver is Ubuntu, I'm building this natively in Unreal Engine for Linux from day one. No DirectX wrappers here—this is pure Vulkan. Let me know what you think of the aesthetic!

Hello everyone!

I have the following laptop:

Ryzer 5 6600

RTX 3050Ti 4GB

RAM 16GB

I'm thinking to change Windows on my laptop because twice after windows update, windows became corrupted and puts me on a bit locker recovery loop and i lost a lot of docs etc.

So i want any advice that can help me! Which distro should to choose for gaming? (LoL, HS) I read about the LoL that cuz of vanguard its not support on linux, its not a real problem for me tbh so i',m ok with that!

But i dont know the difference between distros!

Mint? Nobara? Bazzite? Pop!_OS? Manjaro?

I know Mint is more close to windows, but it will be enough or shoud go to another distro?

Thank you!

I have been trying for weeks now and I cant get anything working properly. I am trying to run Arma 3 but it is laggy and sometimes crashes. Games dont work if I use another monitor. I want to use skydive for drone sim, but it cant detect my controller unless its already plugged in. It has deadzones and throttle starts from the middle. I have 8 hours of time on these games but I havent got to playing yet. The issue should be somewhere in steam or games themselves, bc I have the correct drivers and popOS should work decently with nvidia.

I used all the options websites, forums, tutorials, AI but I still cant figure it out.

A new season of Overwatch 2 starts today, which comes via an update. I booted it up (on GE-Proton10-21, on Fedora 42, on an AMD Radeon RX 7800 XT), went into the battle pass, clicked on something, and it crashed.

Started up, did it again, it crashed again. Switched to GE-Proton10-26, cleared out the cached data in compatdata and shadercache, started up - and it crashed on startup. Switched back to GE-Proton10-21, and it crashed on startup again! I've tried with and without gamemoderun, both versions of Proton-GE, after a reboot and software update, and it consistently crashes on boot.

Anyone else getting this?

Any thoughts on what i could try?

Why is it that every single time I install an application, it stops my all of my controllers (Xbox 360, PS4 and Xbox Series controller) working in Steam games? What am I doing wrong?

This has happened with OpenRGB, now it's happened after installing Davinci Resolve (I already uninstalled OpenRGB a while ago so that's no longer the problem.) I have no intention of uninstalling Resolve after fighting to get it to install on my system in the first place.

It's so frustrating, I don't want to have to use 2 completely separate OS installs to avoid conflicts between completely unrelated applications.

FYI I'm running Ubuntu 24.04 LTS, but this issue has also occured on Bazzite 42 and Ubuntu 24.10 in the past.
