Crackling/Glitching Sounds that Occur on Almost Every Game, Help?

I constantly get this stupid glitch sound that rises up until it disappears. I'm unsure of what to do for it because it occurs in just about every game that I play and only when I play games.

SteamCMD Update Error

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 27 Mar 2024 - 9:11pm

Hello,

when I want to update my Arma 3 gameserver on my Linux Ubuntu server with SteamCMD, I get the following message since today:

tid(27094) burning pthread_key_t == 0 so we never use it Redirecting stderr to '/home/gameserver/.steam/logs/stderr.txt' Logging directory: '/home/gameserver/.steam/logs' minidumps folder is set to /tmp/dumps [ 0%] Checking for available updates... [----] Verifying installation... UpdateUI: skip show logoSteam Console Client (c) Valve Corporation - version 1709846822 -- type 'quit' to exit -- Loading Steam API...OK Connecting anonymously to Steam Public...OK Waiting for client config...OK Waiting for user info...OK Update state (0x0) : Timed out waiting for update to start, bailing. Success! App '233780' fully installed.

The message that it seems to work is not correct. I have already researched the topic and found it on Reddit. However, no post brought a solution to my problem.

I have already turned off the firewall of the server completely for testing. But it still does not work.

Does anyone know a solution or have they solved the problem themselves?

Here is some actual information about screen sharing on discord

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 27 Mar 2024 - 7:55pm

Advaith works for discord, decided to ask him about discord bringing screen sharing with audio or wayland support or even hardware encoding/decoding. He replied with jake hopes to get wayland screen share support this year

This is rlly good to see, hopefully they add audio aswell on top of that and not just wayland support

Hardware encode and decode would also be nice but a man can dream i guess

Dragon's Dogma II gamemode

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 27 Mar 2024 - 7:27pm

If you want to increase fps in Dragon's Dogma II, try to use `gamemoderun %command%`, it greatly improved performance in my case. (from 16-26 fps to 60 in first village)

Best distro 5600h

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 27 Mar 2024 - 7:20pm

Hello everyone, I have a Chinese mini PC (Gen machine) with 5600h and 16Gb ram. In windows any game freezes after 30 seconds. As naive as I am, I want to ask if I will be able to play anything on Linux (Lol, Last Epoch, Valor ant) and which distro should I use.

Thank you very much, and sorry for the very naive question.

Roblox

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 27 Mar 2024 - 6:24pm

I wanted to play roblox and I tried Vinegar "Wine is not supported", did everything I could and still can't run it. I know that the devs or whoever recently stopped wine support, so is there a way or do we just wait? Thanks for anyone responding!

Some Games "Lagging" When Playing on Hyprland

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 27 Mar 2024 - 6:01pm

So I've recently come across an issue where there's some games that are "lagging" and others not. When I use the term "lagging" I mean, imagine if you just cranked up the motion blur and tried turning your camera. (I did check, this isn't what's happening) Or perhaps just a constant low FPS.

Normally I would assume it's just that game, but this exact issue has happened to three games now. So Dragon's Dogma 2, The Thaumaturge, and Enshrouded all have this exact issue. However Helldivers 2, Cyberpunk 2077, New World, Solasta and Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen all run just fine.

So my question is, how can I fix this (assuming others are/have experienced it)? Or better yet, how can I go about testing it?

Some info about my system:

Steam Install: Flatpak (though I tried with multilib and this issue still remains)
OS: Arch Linux x86_64Kernel: 6.8.1-zen1-1-zen
DE: Hyprland (exact dots https://github.com/JaKooLit/Arch-Hyprland )
WM: sway
CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 5900X
GPU: Nvidia GeForce RTX 3080
Memory: 32GB
Nvidia Driver: 550.67

For some things changed, in my WindowRules.conf I do have:

windowrule = noblur,gamescope

windowrule = fullscreen,gamescope

windowrule = workspace 6 silent,^(gamescope)$

As well, I'm using two monitors so placed these in my Monitors.conf:

monitor=DP-2,1920x1080@144,1920x0,1

monitor=HDMI-A-1,preferred,auto,1

Specifically for Dragon's Dogma 2 I'm using GE-Proton9-1, all the rest are using Proton 8.0-5. As well, for DD2 I have the launch options: RADV_PERFTEST=nosam VKD3D_CONFIG=DXR11 gamemoderun while the rest have no launch options used.
Most other changes to the configs I made were for other customization. But if more info is needed, I don't mind providing.

I sent an email to Capcom's tech support as me trying different things in Dragon's Dogma 2 would lock me out every 5 attempts. Their response to my request for help was basically "don't use linux":

Thank you for contacting CAPCOM USA Customer Support. Please note that Capcom does not warrant nor officially provide technical support for PCs that do not meet the official, minimum system requirements. As your OS is not supported, we are not able to provide any troubleshooting options. We ask that the game be played on a device that natively runs a supported OS per the system requirements, or to wait for the 24 hour period to expire.

Best Linux Distro for Gaming (2024)

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 27 Mar 2024 - 5:13pm

I know there has been a post about this same topic before but that was from last year and im not sure if theres anything thats new and or better for what im looking for. I'm currently using an M1 mac and I am looking for a linux distro that will allow me to play steam games that are meant for Windows OS but will work on my machine. Also if the distro is pretty customizable that would be cool too.

Released on March 22nd, 4D Golf is about exploring higher dimensions through Golf. It's absolutely wild visually and I think you need to see this.

Now you too can lose all your time in Lost For Swords with the demo

Back in July 2023 I wrote about Lost For Swords, a roguelike deck-builder, where the cards in your deck shape the rooms you’re exploring. It was properly good fun and now it has a Native Linux demo too!

Thinking of getting a 7900 xtx

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 27 Mar 2024 - 3:57pm

Hi all I've been gaming on linux for a little while now and I've been running with a Ryzen 7800X3D 64GB DDR5 5200 RTX 4070 I've noticed with my nvidia card it gets a little finicky to get stuff working perfectly but I can normally get it working with a few Google searches.

I was wondering if it'd be worth it to get a 7900 XTX and keep both the cards for streaming/gaming using the nvidia card for streaming. Just need some advice if it's actually worth it.

Heroic game launcher stops working

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 27 Mar 2024 - 3:52pm

Fresh nobara install, it was running before but as the internet was very slow I decided about the installation. Nothing happened and I couldn't shut down the PC for some reason so eventually I hit the off button.

Ever since it just shuts down after a couple seconds. I uninstalled it and then installed it again but same issue.
