I keep getting FPS stuttering in World of Warcraft Classic when I move the camera, more specifically when I let go of the mouse button and the cursor reappears on the screen (see video attached), the issue disappears when I use a smaller custom resolution for some reason (2560x1396).

Here are the details:

• CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D
• GPU: AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX
• OS: CachyOS
• DE: KDE Plasma 6.5.3 (Wayland)
  • Adaptive sync: Automatic
  • Allow tearing in fullscreen windows: Yes
• Game launcher: Heroic Games Launcher
• Proton version: GE-Proton-latest (10-25)
• WoW settings:
  • Monitor: 1 (tried Primary and it doesn't make a difference)
  • Resolution: 2560x1440
  • Vsync: Enabled (tried disabled and it doesn't make a difference)
  • Graphics API: DX11 (tried DX12 and it doesn't make a difference)

I've looked around in this subreddit and others trying their suggestions (forcing software cursor, disabling adaptive sync...) but no luck. If your game runs fine please let me know if you use specific settings or tweaks.

I’ve been hacking on a small open-source side project called BEEP-8 and figured some of you on Linux might enjoy it.

The idea is: instead of shipping yet another native emulator, the whole “console” lives in your browser. Once the page has loaded you can play completely offline – no Wine, no Proton, no Steam, just static files in Firefox or Chromium.

What BEEP-8 is:

• A retro-style fantasy console that runs in any modern Linux browser
• CPU is an ARM-ish 4 MHz software core written in JavaScript
• Games and demos are written in C/C++ and cross-compiled to a compact ROM format
• Uses a tiny 16-colour PPU and simple sound chip emulation for that old console feel
• MIT-licensed, no ads, no tracking, no server component

Try it here (plays directly in the browser):
https://beep8.org

Source code, SDK and toolchain:
https://github.com/beep8/beep8-sdk

There are a few small games bundled already, for example:

• a one-dimensional Pac-Man variant that only uses a single line
• ApeSky, a vertical rope-swinging climber
• a simple Mario-like platformer and some graphics/sound demos

Why it might be interesting for Linux users:

• No installation or package manager involved, just open a URL
• Runs fine on low-end hardware and on Steam Deck in desktop mode
• Everything is open if you want to peek under the hood, write your own ROM, or even fork the whole thing

If anyone is curious about developing for it on Linux (toolchain setup, build scripts, self-hosting, etc.), I am happy to share details or example configs.

Anyone else having insane problems installing stuff as simple as that? Like holy shit is it ever so convoluted with the directories being everywhere.

And with so many different installations (GZDoom, Doomrunner) from Flatpak or pacman (paru) half the time I'm trying to find the right directories that are just missing, and why the hell is Flatpak redirecting my installation to some empty ass folder?!?

If anyone has got it to run proper, please tell me how?

I'm on Artix Linux, and recently I've been playing a lot of Arc Raiders. Tho it crashes pretty often, usually in the middle of a game. I don't know if this is a Linux issue, just an issue with Arc Raiders in general or whatever. And it cant be my hardware that's the problem, since i have a 9070XT and a 9800X3D chip. Does this happen to anybody else? Please help me.

Running games with `mangohud %command%` in steam works fine in an X11 session, however in Wayland (KDE Plasma) the game stutters, makes it unplayable. Really weird because I can't find anything about this problem on the net. Am I the only one?

Changing the Proton version, switching to Nvidia Beta drivers all didn't help. Honestly I'm stumped. Obviously games run fine without Mangohud. Any ideas?

You can play it here: https://store.steampowered.com/app/3780950/Chipmatic/

We're making Chipmatic, a mining incremental inspired by Motherload, Dome Keeper and Super Mining Mechs, but with an extra layer of automation!

You control Chip, a lone robot in a mission to reach Earth's Core. To do that, you'll have to gather resources, create a factory and automate production so you can upgrade yourself.

Thank you for checking it out, we're very excited to show you :)
