I recently downloaded Lutris for playing UCN on Linux Zorin OS and this error message showed up.

Ive been playing Arc Raiders on Windows and I usually use frame generation with my 5080, even multi frame generation. Paired with Reflex 2, it makes a very good experience at high frames (even if they are fake). Frametime shows around 0.2ms vs regular 6.1ms without frame generation/reflex.

However, when running the same game at the same settings on Cachy OS (assuming default to be wayland), with GE Proton 10.26 with latest NVIDIA driver, the fake frames feel extremely fake and reflex 2 doesn't seem to be working at all. Mangohud shows 6.3ms frame time with frame generation enabled. Increasing to 8.3ms when enabling MFG 3x or 4x which makes it even worse. I also use the following launch options:

PROTON_ENABLE_NVAPI=1 PROTON_DLSS_UPGRADE=310.2 mangohud gamemoderun %command%

The game feels fine without frame generation just with DX12 performance issues in general but I thought I could mitigate it with frame generation but nope.

I assume this is a NVIDIA issue in general, same as the DX12, but is there any possible way of making reflex 2 actually work on this game or any game on linux with current drivers?

I'm not sure if I'm missing any launch options in general to passthrough but I throught NVAPI would pick this up. DLSS works fine by itself.

The answer is most likely no, but I just wanted a sanity check;

Moving to rust because I have no need for python anymore and removing the need for AppImage.

CHANGLOG:

So, I've decided to move to Rust. Main reason being, I personally do not like the size I was getting on the binaries for the python version. I also no longer need to interact with VDF files for editing as well so there really is no purpose of me staying on python as well. Now I'm doing my best to include some deps like cabextract as you will find it in my releases, if I'm missing something please let me know and I will see what I can do! Size reduced from 54MBs to 8.5MBs.

Changes/Fixes

I have now added official support for the "Global Install" on MO2, if you decide to use it you do not need to configure any of the paths.

Added support for Proton Cachy, you can find it in the Proton Picker tab. (This will be revamped in the future)

As of right now the marketplace/plugin support is disabled for now until I update it to the rust language.

Better logging behind the scenes, and it will no longer report that the install has finished if it failed something during the setup.

The AMD Adrenalin software on windows has an option to switch between default and fast timings for the memory, I don't see that on LACT and was wondering if anyone could confirm I'm not missing something or whether that's just simply not configurable under Linux.

I've been trying to get push to talk working on arch wayland but after looking into it I seen that there was a post talking about the issue https://github.com/Vencord/Vesktop/pull/326 it seems the developers have no interest in it. I was wondering if anyone else has a solution? the reason I use this over the discord app is it uses way less resources than the standard app and I can turn off the store and stuff

any help would be much appreciated thank you

This wasn't very clear to me, I know that FEX does the translation from x86 to ARM, but how would that work within ProtonGE? Wouldn't the FEX need to run on the outside? Since Steam currently doesn't have a version for ARM, and does it need FEX to run it?

This is going to be horrible for my free time. Substructure sounds like a real interesting entry into the factory building automation genre.

Hi everyone, I’m definitely not a mouse expert, so please be gentle. I’m trying to get a Christmas gift for my partner and I need some quick advice from people who actually know what they’re talking about.

About him: - Loves building and tinkering with hardware - Daily Linux user (desktop + framework laptop + mainboard for occasional couch setup) - Enjoys tweaking settings, experimenting, customizing anything and everything! - Codes a lot, scripts a lot, and does long sessions at his desk (all for fun, what???) - Runs his own self-hosted home server that he remotely manages wherever he is - Also plays FPS games enthusiastically (I guess?) - Currently using a heavy full-size aluminium custom keyboard (most definitely, Monsgeek M6 with custom caps, for anyone curious) - I just ordered him a NuPhy Air75 v2 as a portable “couch keyboard”.

Now I’m looking for a premium wireless mouse that:

1. Works really well on Linux (ideally without losing key features)
2. Can still give him all the nerdy tweaks and settings he might want to experience on both systems equally
3. Comfortable for coding + productivity, but also responsive enough for FPS gaming
4. Can switch between his devices smoothly
5. Bonus points if it has some fun/interesting features that tinkerers love

Mice I’ve been looking at based on my research: - Keychron M6 Wireless (4K, or 8K polling versions) - Logitech G502 X Lightspeed - Logitech MX Master 3S/4 (not sure how well the advanced features work on Linux?) - Razer Basilisk V3 / V3 X HyperSpeed (seems better supported on Linux than Logitech?)

I’m honestly lost. 😅 My problem is that I don’t know which of these give the full experience on Linux vs. which ones lose features without their Windows software. He’s smart enough to use Solaar / OpenRazer etc., but I want the mouse to feel like a proper upgrade, not a compromise.

If anyone can help me choose between these, or suggest something better for a tinkering, Linux-using FPS+coding enthusiast, I’d massively appreciate it. I only have half a day or two to order, so any quick suggestions (and why you like them) would help me so much ✨️

Edit: I think he uses a glorious model o wireless mouse? Not sure but looks like it, he has been using it for a whileeeeee it seems.

I'm on bazzite and ever since the new update every game crashes after about 1 min.

I've spent 8 hours trying to fix this and I just can't do it any more.

I hate windows and Microsoft but Linux is too complicated and glitchy.

Say what you want about windows but problems are way easier to fix.

This sucka cause I've loved my time with Linux but I'm sick of having to spend so much time fixing bug and busted updates.

I'm using Linux Lite and every time I plug a controller in, the left thumb stick is also used as a mouse. I've tried some things like typing "sudo apt remove joystick" (this didn't work).

The only thing that did work was that I used "xinput disable <controllerpointer>" but the problem with this solution is that I need to type this in every time I plug a controller in. Is there a way I can just tell Linux to permanently disable the mouse functionality in general for controllers?

As mentioned in the title, I am evaluating the best option to install the epic games store on linux.

Up until now I tested Lutris, NonSteamLauncher, Faugus Launcher, Heroic and stand alone manual cli UMU-Launcher and my results can be summarized as follows:

- Lutris no luck making it work. I abandoned it.

- NonSteamLauncher (NSL) works quite easily but sometimes games and launchers disappear from steam, moreover the interface to configure things is a bit limited. The Game scanner is very useful and has a nice feature very useful for Epic Games specifically

- Faugus Launcher is getting better by the day. Automatic laucher installer fails often but it mostly works. If you are able to install things on your own it is also useful to cover the last mile, being it creating the entry in the launcher, steam entry, desktop, app menu ecc.

- UMU-Launcher is the best solution in my opinion, straight to the source, but requires you to be able to write by yourself the correct launch command and then create shortcuts by yourself. I tried creating a script to guide the user in creating the command but it was too complex for me (not a developer) and I paused the project for the moment.

- Heroic nice interface but I don't find it intuitive (personal opinion), it has a lot of advanced features but they are scattered across the interface and lacks epic games cloud saves integration. Fine if you only have a single gaming device and you just want to install the game and play it without thinkering.

Now focusing on Epic Games specifically. During my testing with the various solutions I noticed that the only solution easily providing me with integration with the Epic Cloud Saves is non steam launcher. This because when the scanner finds a game, the launch command it creates is like the following example:

- "/home/deck/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/compatdata/NonSteamLaunchers/pfx/drive_c/Program Files (x86)/Epic Games/Launcher/Portal/Binaries/Win32/EpicGamesLauncher.exe"

- "/home/deck/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/compatdata/NonSteamLaunchers/pfx/drive_c/Program Files (x86)/Epic Games/Launcher/Portal/Binaries/Win32/"

- STEAM_COMPAT_DATA_PATH="/home/deck/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/compatdata/NonSteamLaunchers/" %command% -'com.epicgames.launcher://apps/65c25644a2e0444d8766967a008b1d69?action=launch&silent=true'

I think this launch method is what allows NSL to integrate correctly with the Epic Games Cloud Saves. It seems to me it is launching the laucncher itself, not the game (first point) then in the launch options (last point) it specifies the game to launch and that the launcher is silent. The launch option also specifies the prefix.

Is there a way you can replicate this with other launchers or manually? I think it is just a matter of copying this command and changing the STEAM_COMPAT_DATA_PATH value for the prefix and the game is after apps/. Where can I find app ids? I am also fine doing it manually for each game but I can't fully grasp how it works.

Been looking at swapping over to linux because of the same reasons everyone else is.

Was wondering if its possible to install on a usb stick for experimentation purposes but still have access to my windows drive.

Many of the games I wish to run use EAC, which im not happy about but looking through this subreddit it seems its not a huge roadblock.

I use linux from time to time professionally so I am not scared of CLI, but at home I want something that is low maintenance. I understand I am going to be doing a lot of searching for solutions etc, and am most likely the test case for my friend group also making the jump.

Any recommendations are appreciated, even if I have to custom build with mint etc.
