First some tech specs out of the way:

• OS: Bazzite
• CPU: AMD Ryzen 5600x
• GPU: Intel Arc A770 16 GB VRAM
• RAM: 32 GB DDR4
• Mesa: 25.2.6

Previously, earlier this year, I had issues like these with Oblivion Remastered. Since then a lot of updates have arrived on Mesa and I've been able to play UE5 games... relatively... well. At least, the graphical issues don't exist anymore. Arc Raiders runs particularly well.

So I decided to reinstall Oblivion Remastered and see if that works without visual problems. But now I can't even launch the game properly!

It consistently crashes 2 or so minutes after launching the game (any Proton version it's supposed to work on, so from 9.0-4 and up, including Proton GE). So this happens when the shader precaching hits around 48%.

At first I thought this was an issue with UE5 shader caching, but after it crashes in the middle of shader precaching it can launch into the game's main menu where... it crashes after about 2 minutes.

This is not an immediate crash; after about 2 minutes the game freezes (the game specifically. My system still works fine), it stays frozen for about a minute, and then it crashes with a UE crash report window.

I've been trying to look for solutions, but I'm only finding reports from earlier this year where the game would crash after an hour or at specific points in the game, nothing that is similar to what I'm experiencing.

I have recently switched from Windows to Pop!_OS. Is there any way to get pirated games from repack websites such as Fitgirl to work on Linux? As far as I know, They’re Windows-specific and I am completely new to Linux and its ecosystem. I would really appreciate your help.

I recently started using Linux mint, for the past weeks I've been dual booting with windows 10. I had just been testing Linux out so I had the majority of my disk space with windows until last night i decided to delete all my games off windows and give the disk space to Linux. But I'm having a problem with Marvel Rivals, soon after the fight breaks out in a match my screen freezes then my monitors shut off, and after a few seconds they turn back on but the display looks corrupted (like the image it froze on but a grid of hue shifted squares, red, blue, and green. and a ton of random black pixels everywhere.) then my Linux desktop will crash and ill have to sign back in.

I tried to look into and saw that it might be a GPU hardware issue, but it was working fine on windows. some extra info: I have an AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT graphics card, and I'm launching from steam which automatically downloaded proton experimental when I downloaded marvel rivals. I also heard that when moving partitions around on your hard drive to extend the volume of a Linux partition might break things, so could that be affecting anything?

Any idea what could be happening? I've tried to run it through Faugus and Lutris unsuccessfully.

Hey everyone! 👋

I got tired of manually creating .desktop files and looking for icons for my non-Steam games (Lutris, Heroic, etc.). So, I built gde-creator.

It searches the Steam database to fetch app icons and metadata, then generates a launch shortcut for your system. It works perfectly with launchers like Rofi, Wofi, or Vicinae, so you can launch your games instantly without touching the terminal.

You can download it here (GitHub)
or download it from AUR:
yay -S gde-creator

If you have any issues or feedback I will greatly appreciate it!

Hello, here is the problem: I can't manage to launch the game The Alter. I'm running Garuda (OS), yet according to the Proton website, it seems to be working. I have tried other kernels, but still nothing. Has anyone successfully managed to run it? If so, could you please share your configuration? Have a great day, everyone.

I have an issue with my PC locking up when playing Rocket League. Gradually when loading into games, memory usage increases until it hits 98+% and locks up my PC.
The only solution I have now is to restart the game on time before it hits too high.

Sometimes this freeze gets sped up dramatically when trying to stream on Discord while i'm at 80+%.

Distro: Kubuntu.

Help or insight much appreciated.

Hi folks, running Linux mint 22.2 with steam and was playing Anno 117 pax romana a couple of weeks ago but today it does not start, well, I start it, but then the icon in Steam goes back to 'Start' after a couple of seconds. I tried running 'steam --reset' in terminal, rebooting and starting steam in terminal but can't see anything obvious, ideas?

So I figured out how to run GMod (via GModCEFCodexFix), but I have this one problem where when I tried to walk or sprint I can't simultaneously turn my camera with my trackpad (I can only do that with arrow keys which I find frustrating since I can't have fun with Nextbot chases)

I'm the owner of a Steam Deck, and I've been playing fine until now, but I wouldn't call myself very savvy of the whole procedure. Normally, for windows games that have to be installed, I add the installer on Steam, execute it, then add the .exe of the installed game to Steam, and it generally works.

However, I've been trying to get Pokémon TCG Live to work, and after choosing the language it redirects me to the browser to login. If I do that on the browser, the game doesn't recognize that. I get the prompt from the browser to choose an app for xdg-open, but nothing worked of what I tried.

Does anyone have a solution? I've seen other threads about the game, but they seem to be stuck on a different login error (Error 15), so I'm not sure if I'm skipping a step somewhere even.

I use a lot of windows applications and cycle them a lot, a store-like launcher isn't very efficient to me, PortProton is great, but I would like to have a second option, specially because PortProton only opens one thing at a time.

I bought a gaming laptop from Tuxedo Computers Gmbh, specialized in “linux first” computers.

I’m really trying to avoid GAFAMS and support EU businesses, so it was a perfect match.

Here is my terrible experience.

Laptop works on Windows but not Linux

The problems below are present on all combinations of linux distros, kernel version and drivers, using Tuxedo WebFAI or vanilla distributions.

When using Windows and the XMG drivers, it works flawlessly.

That proves that it’s a software issue, and returning the computer for repair won’t help.

• Built-in screen going (and staying) black for many reasons:
  • pc going to sleep
  • using hdmi external screen (with mux in hybrid mode)
  • at random
• Cpu crawling at < 1Ghz, requires charger unplug/replug (bug from tuxedo control center)
• Battery not charging (420W charger) after changing settings in control center, had to clear CMOS
• Low fps over HDMI on Wayland
• Bluetooth drops when using 2 to 4 xbox controllers
• USB-C charging only works when the computer is shut down. Not very useful.

Support lie, won’t help, won’t refund

• Their support never acknowledged the issues and pretend they can’t reproduce.
• They take days to answer, and never answer all the questions.
• They only keep you busy by asking logs and don’t provide actual support.
• They say that a refund is “impossible” (I’m not aware that Tuxedo is bankrupt, though).
• No solution was provided whatsoever.
• They eventually suggested to return the computer for investigation, which makes no sense, as that will not help with linux driver issues.

Tuxedo Computer = Schenker XMG rebrand

Contrary to what their markting says, these two systems have exactly the same hardware, firmware and bios (appart from the boot logo). The “windows drivers” provided by Tuxedo are identical to the drivers provided by XMG.

• Tuxedo Stellaris 7 + Aquaris watercooling (sold by Tuxedo)
• XMG Neo E25 + Oasis watercooling (exact same hardware, sold by Schenker XMG)

I hope this post helps you dodge a bullet.

Hey Guys,
after I played the game on CachyOS for some months one day it just didn't launch without any changes from my side. I checked ProtonDB for some infos but none of the advises worked. Even after I reinstalled CachyOS (for other reasons) it didn't work.

Things I tried so far:
- switching proton versions (went from proton-cachyos to proton 10, proton 9, some older ones as well)
- Enabling PROTON_ENABLE_WAYLAND
- Disabling MangoHUD

I started steam in CLI and checked the output during game launch. Here the summary:

fsync: up and running

Errors about an object at /home/user/.local/share/Steam/ubuntu12_32/gameoverlayrenderer.so wich cannot be preloaded

Game Recording doesn't start since it's disabled.

A bunch of processes get added.

"explorer.exe" is blacklisted in MangoHUD.

"pid 147127 != 147126, skipping destruction (fork without exec?)" appears.

"Game Recording - game stopped [gameid=1172380]"

All added processes get removed

I'd like to just blame the EA App for causing trouble but the sequel Jedi Survivor works fine for some reason.

If you have any idea how to fix that I'd be glad to hear it, since I don't want to be forced to play the game on windows. Thanks for your help guys
