Hi everyone,

For a while now I’ve been trying to play modded Minecraft on Arch Linux, and I’m running into a serious issue where my entire system freezes.

I was playing with friends using Fabric mods, and I could only play if only Minecraft and Discord were open (and even then it was unstable). If I opened something like a web browser, my whole PC would freeze and I’d have to force a reboot.

At first, I assumed it was just my hardware, since it’s not great, but the game was still playable. However, last night we decided to make a Forge modpack, and the problem got worse. With Minecraft + Discord open, the game runs fine at around 80 FPS, but out of nowhere the entire system freezes. This happened multiple times.

I then tried closing Discord and leaving only Minecraft open, but the freezes kept happening — just with longer intervals (before ~10 minutes, now ~20 minutes).

Things I’ve already tried:

Increasing allocated RAM

Decreasing allocated RAM

None of that helped.

System info:

OS: Arch Linux

Minecraft version: 1.20.1

RAM: 8 GB

GPU: Integrated graphics

Device: Laptop

I don’t really believe this is a hardware limitation, since the game consistently runs at ~80 FPS.

Any ideas on what could be causing this or how to fix it?

Thanks in advance.

Hi everyone,

Been gaming on windows for over 10 years, but I'm kind of getting tired of the AI first mindset.

I've been interested in linux for a while, and I keep hearing that there's been lots of improvements recently in terma of how easy is tonget things set up and performance. I'm thinking I'd like to try setting up a dual boot, see how it goes. I keep reading that some hardware configs are less friendly so, considering all this:

• Intel Core i5 -14600KF
• 32GB RAM 6000MT/s
• SSD WD_BLACK SN770 2TB
• RTX 4070 Super

How viable is it using Linux with this hardware? What's the easiest distribution you'd use?

Thanks a lot for the help!

I am looking for an app that captures incoming controller commands (like those from a DS4) to then convert to DS3 controller commands to be sent out to an actual PS3 system. I tried GIMX, but it couldn't even install because of an insanely outdated dependency.

The GIMX wiki says that I need a Bluetooth adapter that can have its MAC address spoofed, which I don't have. However to my understanding it only uses it to establish a connection handshake with the console, not for the controller commands themselves.

My PS3 is jailbroken, and I am wondering if it has a list of connected controllers somewhere that I can edit and add the actual MAC address of my machine, so it wouldn't reject a connection from it.

Also, I am aware of USB controller adapters like the Brook Wingman, however I first want to see if there's anything that can be done with my PC alone.

Hey all,

couple of days ago i read something about better linux support from brands like asetek and moza for their simracing equipment.

So my question is now, which brand really has a good and easy support for linux? At the moment i have a Fanatec CSL DD and the Simnet SP Pro Pedals. As far as i know the Linux support of fanatec is not really available. If i need to buy new hardware (also pedals?) which one should i get to get the best linux support?

I play on a 1440p display with Nvidia 5070ti on Linux (mint). Latest Nvidia drivers installed.

The game plays flawless but resolution seems low/blurry. Changing the resolution ingame doesn't seem to do anything... whether i choose 1440p or 1080p, still kind of blurry.

Any advice?
Thanks

My wife is involved in a closed test for a game, and while she can get the game to work, she claims that she is unable to get her Edge controller to work. I find it hard to believe that some distros are touted as great for gaming if users can't get controllers to function.

Are there drivers for the Dualsense Edge? If not, are there drivers for the basic controller? Bonus points to anybody that knows of remapping software that would allow for keyboard inputs to be mapped to the controller.

Thank you in advance.

Hi all,

I hope you're well.

I've got an odd issue - ive just moved from Windows to Linux (Nobara) and still getting used to everything so hoping for some advice.

When I have my second monitor enabled (1080p 60hz) everything becomes juddery on my main screen (240hz vrr enabled)

For example in WoW when I move my camera with the mouse, it doesn't feel quite right. When I turn off the second screen it's perfect.

Any ideas how I resolve this?

Thanks a lot.

Main Menu

After joining a game through the plutonium HUD key

After following this Guide, my game manages to boot, but with the main menu screen being fully white. I can join a game with the plutonium menu key (F8) but that's all the navigating I can do. The menu plays sound effects when my cursor hovers it, but its basically impossible to do anything. Is there a known fix for this? I have tried many different runtimes as well.

Hi everyone, hope you are all doing well. I wanted to start a discussion about the current state of Linux gaming. With recent news like GeForce NOW being available on Linux and GOG showing more interest in the platform, Linux is becoming more attractive as a gaming option.

One of the main things still holding it back is kernel level anti cheat support, especially Easy Anti Cheat, which is still a blocker for many multiplayer games.

I would love to hear your opinions on this. How long do you realistically think it will take for Easy Anti Cheat kernel support to be available on Linux, if it ever happens at all?

Thanks in advance for your thoughts.

I know most people with Vulkan encounter the problem of not being able to set it to 4:3, whether on Windows or Linux. Well, I managed to do it on Bazzite. You just have to put the game in windowed mode and then add this to the Steam executable's properties: -w 1280 -h 960. Then switch to windowed fullscreen mode and exit. After that, change the result to this: -w 1440 -h 1050. The game will then automatically interpret it as 1440x1080p.

I used to use protondb to see how a game would run on steam deck, but now the site is basically unusable because every review is just thumbs up, perfect 40 FPS with LSFG, 1 hour on record.
