PS4 Controller on Linux
I was using DS4Windows on my pc with windows to make my pc think I was using a wired PS4 controller so I could get the PS controller button prompts.
I play ARC Raiders and Pal World with a ps4 controller and both games have wired ps4 controller support, just not wireless.
Is there a way to do the same on linux? I've seen ds4drv. Does it emulate a wired ps4 controller?

Cyberpunk 2077 bad performance with ray tracing on RX 9060 XT
As the title says, ray tracing is working poorly on arch linux with RX 9060 XT.
On Windows 11, I get around 100 fps with RT on and FSR4, while on Linux, I get around 50-60 with constant stuttering on same settings.
If I turn RT off, I get identical fps on both (over 150 fps), so it's specifically a problem related to ray tracing.
Is this normal and can it be solved?

DayZ-CTL | DayZGUI Help!!!!
Dayz runs fine besides the crackling audio which i think i can fix lol, but i cannot get any of the DZSA equivalents to run or work.
For https://github.com/WoozyMasta/dayz-ctl & https://github.com/aclist/dztui
I've followed the directions they supplied and even went to YouTube and various other online forums but nothing is working.
I must've messed up somewhere in the process because i cannot get the terminal with the GUI to show up or anything at all. I'd really appreciate it if anyone can help

My cpu runs slower when gaming on linux
I have a dell G16 (I9-13900hx, 4060 and 32Gb RAM) and i tried using Kubuntu on it multiple times but i always face performance issues and i just give up, basically while playing any game (mostly running through wine) my cpu frequency is stuck on 2400mhz while my cpu can go all the way to 5400mhz.
i think the issue is related to power plan but i read somewhere that 6.15 kernel will extend thermal control support and even after that it's still the same.
i wanted to see if others faced the same issue and if it's my distro choice fault or my laptop just doesn't work on linux.

Is Baldur's Gate 3 available on Linux via Steam?
I wanted to play it but when I go to the game's page on Steam it doesn't appear the SteamOS + Linux option in the required systems page. Does anyone know how that works? (I have Linux Mint and am very new to using the system so if you could explain it with simple terms it would help)

MangoHUD GPU "Current Throttling"
Hi everyone!
I have seen a lot of comments saying that having the GPU "Power Throttling" was normal but I was wondering if it is the same with "Current Throttling".
It appears on MangoHUD sporadically while playing and I want to make sure that everything is working fine and/or I didn't make any mistake with my setup. My question is probably stupid as Power and Current are link to each other but I need some reassurance.
My hardware:
- Gigabyte 9060 XT
- Ryzen 5 9600x
- Cooler Master V650 SFX Gold
Thanks in advance for the help!

The last hurdle that I cannot seem to fix
So after a lot of talking here and learning potential better options for me than linux mint to finally be able to dual boot and actually play games I found the time to give linux a second try and set up Pop!OS. Got games running and almost all windows software I need replaced with a linux or open source alternative there. Some jank but I can live with that.
But then I switched to windows and tried to play Valorant (I have friends that this is the main game we play together so not playing it is not an option in my book.), oh yeah secure boot is disabled but imma need that. Quickly enable it and boot again, ofc Pop!OS now doesn't boot unless I disable secure boot again.
Having tried the 2 fixes I was able to find between all the "nope not possible" comments both related to using refind instead of the default boot manager but I just can't get it working. 1 of the fixes I tried: https://www.reddit.com/r/pop_os/comments/1od1ebl/nvidia_driver_not_loading_after_changing/
I cannot find the post of the other fix I tried but it was almost the same except also trying to enable secureboot in Pop!OS itself which isn't a must for me.
So I'm here as a last effort (outside of reaching out to the poster of the afformentioned post in hopes he may find what I'm doing wrong) to ask if anybody knows what I could do to secure boot windows 11 and use Pop!OS (nvidia) as well, without having to go into Bios just to enable/disable secure boot the whole time.
I'm not afraid of using a commandline or anything but I'm not tech-savvy enough to figure this out using refinds documentation as all of this stuff is a bit above my knowledge level. I also wanted to try and check the refind.config but just can't seem to get to that file in Pop!OS somehow unless I'm missing something.

Failure getting Kooha to screen record now that I've moved to Sway
When I was on Gnome, and then Cosmic I used Kooha to take videos of my desktop.
On the same system (and same linux install) I'm now using SwayWM and having trouble getting Kooha working. When I go to start a recording I get the following error:
``` Failed to start recording
Caused by: 0: Failed to create session 1: Failed to call CreateSession with parameters: Variant { ptr: 0x55899eb17550, type: VariantTy { inner: "(a{sv})" }, value: "({'session_handle_token': <'kooha_0'>, 'handle_token': <'kooha_1'>},)" } 2: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.UnknownMethod: No such interface “org.freedesktop.portal.ScreenCast” on object at path /org/freedesktop/portal/desktop ```
I'm struggling to figure out what's the best way to resolve this. Anyone have any ideas?

Overwatch 2 not working well on Mint
I just installed Mint and updated everything prior to downloading and launching some games for testing. I played Vintage Story (ran flawlessly) and then went to Overwatch 2, since it was listed as platinum on ProtonDB.
I launched it, and after letting it process the Vulkan Shaders for nearly two hours, it finally opened up.
It was a bit stuttery for a moment but then it leveled out. As soon as I clicked on a menu item (this time being the shop) the game lagged, then froze. I had to force quit it to get control of my computer back.
Anything I’m missing?
I launched the game through Steam and I’ve attached a picture of my system here

Gamescope -r not limiting fps (CachyOS, Steam, Wayland, KDE Plasma)
Hi, I'll keep it short.
cpu 5800x3d
gpu nvidia 3060 ti (port dp)
oled monitor 240hz
CachyOS, with only gamescope and steam installed from repo.
Game is old, Dreamfall: The Longest Journey
Launch options from Steam: gamescope -W 2560 -H 1440 -r 250 -f -- %command%
Options I have tried are:
-e, --steam
--expose-wayland
--backend wayland
--framerate-limit 250
Nothing I do on this game will limit the fps.

Help with modding dragons dogma 2(RE engine)
I'm trying to mod dragons dogma 2 and it needs this funny thing called REFramework to get 2 mods in particular(this and this), I did put them in the correct places I even tried to use Fluffly mod manager with protontricks to no avail obviously. When I launch the game RE Framework does work, but it cannot make the mods themsevs work. Gives me an error that the locations can't be read even tho it acknowledges they exist.
Can anybody help?
