Why does proton run better than native linux??

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 06. Dezember 2025 - 15:41

Sometimes when I play games (with native builds) on linux, like silksong, portal or whatever, the game sometimes has some issues, like for example when you ride the bell beast in silksong, it plays it in slow motion but in proton it works perfectly fine and in portal 2 I had this weird ui glitch where all the buttons graphically were on the correct spot but the location where you had to click was somewhere else and also the game thought I had a 4k monitor even though mine is 1080P.

So does someone know why?

steelseries sonar spatial audio on linux

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 06. Dezember 2025 - 15:34

I use Fifine H9 headphones, and in Windows I've always used Steelsiries Sonar for spatial sound, but I miss it in Linux. Is there a way to get Steelsiries Sonar to work in Linux? I've tried alternatives to EasyEffect, even with spatial sound settings, but they're nowhere near the same as Steelsiries Sonar. And yes, I know there's a way with a Windows VM, but the problem is that my headphones don't remember my hardware settings, so I don't think that will work for me.

Distros do linux

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 06. Dezember 2025 - 13:22

I've always used Windows but this 11 is horrible, I tried to migrate to Linux Mint as they say it's good for beginners but there's a part of the installation that freezes, can anyone recommend another distro that's good for beginners?

Help! My buddy installed Nobara on my new PC and it does not seem to have a deskop environment included?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 06. Dezember 2025 - 12:58

Linux noob here, my buddy claims that Nobara simply doesn't come with a desktop. I googled it and to me it sounds like Nobara is in fact supposed to have a Desktop, called Gnome. How do I turn that desktop on though? In case I am wrong, and Nobara really does not come with a desktop, how do I install one and which one do you recommend?

Why all of a sudden I can install games in Steam in Linux that I couldnt install previously?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 06. Dezember 2025 - 12:23

Games like Deep Rock Galactic, Insurgency Sandstorm, and a whole of others.

I know for sure I couldnt install those in Steam.

I didnt check out the linux steam scene for a few months now.

What has changed?

All AMD Gaming Laptop

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 06. Dezember 2025 - 11:48

Hello everyone, I have a rog gaming laptop with both amd cpu and dgpu (RX6800M)

I've been thinking switching to linux but I'm thinking if there's additional step involved to optimizing it? I'm a noob in linux so I'm afraid I won't understand complex stuff regardless I still want to try it.

One of the main thing I'm concerned about is if the smartshift technology works flawlessly in linux? and also if is there any control center i could use for undervolting and fan control. In windows i use G-Helper.

The linux distro I'm considering is bazzite so if anyone has any experience I would gladly appreciate the help!

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 06. Dezember 2025 - 11:25

I know kernel level anticheats dont really work on Linux but I was wondering if I could stream the game, would that allow me to play fortnite for example? If not that's fine, just curious and thanks for the help! Sorry if this is the wrong place to post.

Edit: Sorry, I'm using Linux Mint 22

Minecraft Bedrock on Linux?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 06. Dezember 2025 - 10:25

Hi all,

I used to run Minecraft Bedrock through mcpe-launcher (https://github.com/minecraft-linux/) or Waydroid, but it seems the latest version of Minecraft introduced some form of DRM that blocks both these approaches.

Is there an alternative or a work around for this?

(I know I can play Minecraft Java Edition natively on Linux, but I play bedrock because my son plays on his Android device - which can't run the Java version and we have a shared world where we play together.)
