So i have a hd 4600 which supports only vulkan 1.2 and that's why it can't run the newest dxvk versions. Is there anyway to force newest proton versions (like 11 beta) to run with dxvk 1.10.3?

Greetings, I took a break from Helldiver's 2 for some months and the performance was already then quite on the edge of being playable. For comparison:

Then I played in QHD Ultra quality with mostly low settings but for example texture quality on medium with average 60~50fps with some dips into 40fps.

Now even on FHD Balanced with all low settings I get BARELY 30fps

But for me, the most disappointing thing is, that on my second windows partition the game runs fantastic. QHD ultra quality with medium - high settings and very stable 60fps. Is it really the game or (hopefully) some mistake on my side?

Lastly, my PC specs: Radeon 6650 XT Ryzen 5 5500 CachyOS

I have a problem with Wine. When I open an .exe file with Wine, such as a game installer like in this case, the window is rendered as if my screen resolution was much lower than it really is. This happens even when I use base Proton or Proton GE.
I don't really know what the problem is. Thanks in advance for the help.

Hi,

My gf has an old gaming laptop (GTX 1050, i5 8th, 16 GB RAM). It's running very slowly, and most games have problems running even on the lowest setting. Is there any point in switching to Linux, or is it just unsupported NVIDIA and a dead laptop?

Hey everyone,

I was just watching the new reales video on the Framework 13 pro, in the video they said it can handle Cyberpunk at high graphic levels.

Now I’ve never built a PC and don’t really know what specs mean. I am console gamer though I have been wanting to have some way ti access steam.

I like the idea of the steam machine but this laptop seems pretty cool too and it’s Linux straight out of the box, currently use mint.

Let me know what you think.

Sorry, I don't have many details, I haven't thought about this game in forever, but have been obsessed with it lately. It was this game where you play as like gnomes or dwarves or something. Most of them had swords or axes, but I remember vividly that one had a shotgun. It was 3D and top-down-ish, the camera could also follow the player.

I remember two levels, one where you're in a town and the townsfolk attack you (I don't remember if they're inherently agro, or if I would do something to piss them off) and one level where you're battling against others on a ship (this is where I remember the shotgun guy from)

I don't think it had a story, or a real progression, I think it was just a collection of various levels you could pick from. I might also be misremembering, but I think it had networked multiplayer? Either my brother and I would play against each other on multiple computers, or I'm just totally misremembering and we would take turns on one computer.

I remember I managed to track it down in 2016, by then it had been removed from Ubuntu software and I couldn't get it to run on Ubuntu 16.04, but I didn't really try that hard anyway. I've been scrolling the internet archive and a list of ubuntu games from 2008 and couldn't find it, it must have existed in the software center for a pretty limited time, I'm fairly certain it was released after 2008, and I'm confident it was removed and became abandonware before about 2016

Edit: also I remember it had a really stupid name, even back in the day I could never remember what it was called. It wasn't a jumble of letters, but was something weird like Gularnicaliga, like they took the most random, fantasy-sounding syllables and stuck them together into a nonsense word.

Sorry if this has been already asked here but I want to make sure I have the correct settings.

I have connected the monitor via a DP cable, in monitor settings I have enabled Freesync.

I am using CachyOS with KDE Wayland and I have enabled Adaptive Sync in Display Configuration.

When gaming, for example Cyberpunk 2077, I disabled in-game Vsync setting, and locked the frame-rate to below my monitor's max-refresh-rate. So I lock it to 90 FPS because my monitor is a 1440P 100Hz display.

I turned on the FPS counter on my monitor's settings and I can see the refresh-rate is now 90 FPS most of the time.

Am I doing everything correctly? Should I enable Vsync instead in-game?

When I compiled Wine 10.15 from source, Command and Conquer Generals runs very slow.

I chose to install Wine 10.15 because 10.15 is the version that can run most of my games and I chose to compile because I need 10.15 and can't afford to upgrade. If I chose to install from the package manager, I would eventually lose 10.15. Long story short anyway.

However, Command and Conquer Generals was slower than the one installed from the official repositories and I don't know why. I disabled libvulkan-dev (my system is a Linux Mint). I don't use Vulkan because my machine is a lower-end PC and will not be able to run well using it.

My machine is an AMD Phenom II X3 B75 with 4GB DDR3 RAM and my GNU/Linux distro is a Linux Mint 22.3 MATE.

I would benefit from some help.

I have this problem with RE7 where if I try to run it on higher framerates I keep getting this annoying slowdown every few seconds. It seems to do it regardless of graphics settings. It's fine if I cap it at 30 though. I feel like my laptop should be capable of running it and all the fixes I've seen haven't made a difference. I'm running Bazzite on an MSI laptop with an Intel i7 CPU and Nvidia GTX 1660ti. If anyone has any tips I might be missing it would be appreciated. As far as proton versions it seems Experimental works best though I've seen GE-Proton recommended most of the time.

so I have an HP OmniBook X Flip 14 (Ryzen AI 7 350, Radeon 860M 24ram/1tb). when I was still on Windows I used to change the UMA carveout directly in AMD Adrenalin, Then as planned for that laptop, I switched to Linux (arch btw) and realized there's just no option to change it anymore. the HP BIOS doesn't have a setting for iGPU VRAM at all and as i understand a lot of laptops with this APU have the same problem, it's completely hidden.

I started looking for ways to fix it. Smokeless UMAF can actually find the hidden AMD CBS settings in the BIOS, but HP uses Insyde H2O so UMAF can read everything but can't save anything. every other tool people recommend hits the same wall. the only remaining options were finding a way to boot Windows again and use Adrenalin, that not sounded fun.

Kernel 7.0 added some new sysfs files for AMD APUs specifically for UMA carveout. So i checked if its here on my machine

ls /sys/class/drm/card*/device/uma/

It was here, genuinely didn't expect that after 2-3 months of trying and using this laptop

cat /sys/class/drm/card1/device/uma/carveout_options cat /sys/class/drm/card1/device/uma/carveout

Mine showed: 0: Minimum (512 MB) 1: (1 GB) 2: (2 GB) 3: (4 GB) 4: (6 GB) 5: Medium (8 GB) 6: (12 GB), and confirmed I was sitting at index 0 (512MB). so I just did:

echo 5 | sudo tee /sys/class/drm/card1/device/uma/carveout reboot

After reboot i'm back to 8GB, finaly

Then i changed gtt memory settings so i dont use so much of so called shared memory bc i don't need it anymore

As far as i find, its related to Atom ROM. if your BIOS doesn't expose ATCS the /uma/ directory simply won't be there, so there's no harm in checking.

Posting this because I couldn't find anyone talking about it and spent way too long thinking I needed Windows for this. if you're on any AMD APU laptop and you've been stuck fighting with BIOS restrictions for this, just check if the directory exists. might save you a lot of pain.
