Video Production question

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 26. Oktober 2025 - 22:28

Any chance avid media composer can run by virtue of proton or any other linux?

It is currently windows and apple only. Linux would be awesome if there was a way to make it work
for avid mc.

DIsk write error on Steam, using Linux MInt. Can't play anything on my external hard drive.

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 26. Oktober 2025 - 22:27

I just switched from Windows to Linux MInt and everything is working fine, except for Steam. I tried installing a game to my external hard drive and whenever I try playing this error occurs. What can I do? I've heard the issue is not using the .deb file to download STeam but I did download the .deb file, and I don't know what's happening. Any help please? I'm very new to all of this. Thanks in advance.

The aforementioned error, I don't know what's going on.

virtual screens for sunshine

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 26. Oktober 2025 - 22:27

So I'm trying to create a new virtual screen in CachyOS to be able to stream through sunshine but I still don't know how to do it, I read that there is a way through the kernel or something but it doesn't work for me since I only have a Displayport video output so if I use it I won't be able to use my monitor, does anyone have an idea how to achieve this?

Hello everyone, I wanted to play with mods

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 26. Oktober 2025 - 21:56

I've already tried installing mods in several ways and I couldn't. On Win I just created a ~mods folder and put the files inside them, apparently this doesn't work on Linux, at least it didn't work with marvel rivals, which naturally didn't give me a headache in the past. Do you know of any easy and practical way to download mods for my games? Do you have any cool tutorials you can send me? If Linux is not yet ready for this, I would appreciate the help of anyone who stopped to read this post.

Shader volcano

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 26. Oktober 2025 - 21:44

Hi everyone, but why does it take a few minutes every time I start a game from Steam to process the volcano shaders? What is it for and above all why at every startup? Thank you

Linux native version of games always crash at startup no matter what "gaming" distro I use

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 26. Oktober 2025 - 21:25

I know about proton and how it has minimal performance loss but whenever I try native versions (or whatever is done selecting the linux runtime) they always crash.

I've tried bazzite, steam os and cachyos and they seem to have the same problem, what thing I haven't tried yet is using a multi purpose os.

One game I tried to run like that is worms wmd and it never seems to get pass an unstable 40 fps using proton and I feel that the native version fixes this, I've tried one fix that I found on GitHub and it stills crashes so I am out of options.

Ideas of what to do? I also tried the entire collection of valve games and they have the same problem.

Idk whether I am getting help since I am on the lego s with 16gb of ram and a z2 go chip and my main laptop is still being repaired to check whether it has the same problem.

Here's a patched Proton for running Persona 5 Strikers!

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 26. Oktober 2025 - 20:58

It automatically appends the necessary launch variable for cutscenes to work and I also added a workaround for crashes related to Denuvo on modern Intel CPUs!

Minecraft freezes on multiple launchers when attempting to change audio output

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 26. Oktober 2025 - 20:48

This happens on Minecraft launcher, Lunar, and MultiMC, and on both vanilla and Fabric when changing from either my microphone's or HDMI audio output. There also isn't an option for my motherboard's audio output. I'm using Linux 6.17.1-2-cachyos

TimeSplitters Rewind still a thing, coming soon, targeting Steam Deck as minimum spec

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 26. Oktober 2025 - 20:26

https://www.timesplittersrewind.com/

From the timeline on their About page:

The game is moved to Steam Deck (with Proton) and marked as the minimum spec requirements for the game

Longtime TimeSplitters fans/Linux gamers (there are dozens of us!) might remember waaaay back in the early days of the project - before the first version of SteamOS even launched! - where a lead claimed the game would have native Linux support. With all the switchups between both the dev team and the engine that no longer seems to be the case, if it ever really was, but it is nice to see that they're at least testing against Proton.

Undervolt 2080Ti LACT

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 26. Oktober 2025 - 20:24

Abit of a shameful ask but only do the to fact I saw someone mention how something works with 3000+ at one point.

Does locking the max and using an offset to perform an undervolt still work properly with Turing cards?

Trying to keep temps a little lower. Id appreciate any advice. See the thing is in mangohud I can’t see my voltage so I wonder if I am missing a package or if that is just how Turing is. Cheers :)

Hey guys, Im losing my mind trying to run FFVII, I managed to install using Wine but cant get it to run, Im getting the error "dx12 is not supported on your system try running without the dx12 or d3d12"

I Have a Radeon 9060 Saphire, I think It should be enough to run it, or not?

PROBLEMA PRA CONECTAR UM JOYSTICK PS3 NO LINUX UBUNTU Bus 001 Device 010: ID 054c:05c4 Sony Corp. DualShock 4 [CUH-ZCT1x] VIA BLUETOOTH

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 26. Oktober 2025 - 19:49

Fala pessoal, to tentando fazer funcionar um joystick (Controle DualShock de PS3) no linux ubuntu. Porém acredito que estou com problema na configuração de Bluetooth. O controle funciona via cabo normalmente e até aparece o dispositivo quando digito "lsusb": Bus 001 Device 010: ID 054c:05c4 Sony Corp. DualShock 4 [CUH-ZCT1x] e consegui testar no jstest-gtk e na steam é reconhecido também (o unico problema foi o analógico direito estar invertido os controles de camera, mas acredito que isso seja configuravel), mas tudo isso via cabo.

Quando eu tento conectar o bluetooth ele não conecta, já tentei "instalando sudo apt install bluez bluez-tools joystick" e conectar manulamente no modulo do bluetooth "bluetoothctl", até aparece como Device 84:01:34:07:27:56 Wireless Controller mas tento conectar e diz "Não disponivel"

Sober High Ping/Latency Issue, i run Kubuntu latest release on Plasma (x11).

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 26. Oktober 2025 - 19:20

Hello, ive been trying to get roblox to work for a while, i found out about Sober, i got it to run but the "ping" in the game spikes insanely high it will randomly go from like 50 to 300 to like 2000 then back down again. I wondering if theirs any common fixes for this, ive tried the following but none them worked.
- Running it through GEproton lastest relase (doesn't work, must run through Wine)
- Checking internet, actual ping is fine but game doesn't think so
- Adding Vulkan support for it
- Trying different flags to make it run better

Playing on Linux is a gamechanger!

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 26. Oktober 2025 - 18:45

I just switched to Linux mint a couple of days ago and im still pretty new to all of this. I just finished playing Helldivers 2, a famously unoptimized game that is getting harder and harder to run. I have a Ryzen 5 3500X and a RX 6650 XT, and on Windows the game barely scratched 40fps with the lowest settings while pushing my cpu to 110%, but now thanks to Linux the CPU barely goes over 80% and the game barely leaves the 40fps mark with the high setting! If you are thinking about switching to Linux with gaming in mind, please do it!

I still have a lot to learn, I like all the DIY environment, but it's pretty hard to figure out things sometimes

Win 11 and PopOS joint device

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 26. Oktober 2025 - 18:29

Hey all,

Hoping for some tips for someone looking to slowly move to Linux full time. I currently have a gaming PC setup with Windows 11, with a 512GB SSD for hosting my OS (Win11), and a 2TB SSD for my Steam games.

I was thinking of getting another internal 512GB SSD and putting PopOS on it, so I could boot to that and see how it goes as a full time thing.

Would I be able to use my Steam game files from the 2TB SSD and run Proton fine, or are there some tweaks I need to make? Kinda scared I'll do something silly and ruin my PC...

Any advice would be appreciated! ^

Error importing Lutris application module: cannot import name 'Image' from 'PIL' (unknown location)

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 26. Oktober 2025 - 18:16

While launching Lutris, I'm getting the following error:

Error importing Lutris application module: cannot import name 'Image' from 'PIL' (unknown location)

I know I can resolve it by install pillow from pip as root.

sudo pip install pillow

Is there a way to resolve this issue with user space installation of pillow, as pip recommends not to install pip packages with root privileges?

Thanks in Advance!

Spec:

  • OS: Fedora Linux 42 (Adams) x86_64
  • Kernel: 6.17.4-200.fc42.x86_64
  • Packages: 3256 (rpm), 7 (flatpak)
  • Shell: bash 5.2.37
  • DE: Plasma 6.4.5
  • WM: KWin
