Valve just put up a Beta for Proton 11, the next major release of their compatibility layer to run Windows games on Linux / SteamOS.

Hello everyone,

I switched to linux mint one month ago and I installed wow through Faugus launcher.

It works really great except sometimes when I change zone the loading reach 60% and the complete system starts to freeze. When I move my mouse I can see the cursor moving at less than 1 fps..

The only way I found to fix it is to restart the computer...

I tried to switch from Ge-proton to cachy-os proton but the issue remains the same. I also tried to found someone with the same issue online but I didn't find anything....

Someone can help me with this ?

Does anyone have the same problem like me ?

im trying to play pragmata but there this like flickering line and its really lagy i tried to tweek with the setting and proton but its still the same and i dont think its hardware problem since i tried running cyberpunk, division 2, COD MW etc on ultra setting all run normal without any problem.

my spec and setting is

AMD ryzen 5 5700x

32 GB ram

RTX 5060 ti 16 GB

GE-PROTON10-34

Os: Linux MInt

Driver : 590

I am running Debian on a Ryzen 7 5800X paired with a GTX 1650 and 16GB of Ram. It works well after fussing with the drivers and getting steam installed, but I am trying to benchmark vs windows and I noticed something off, the performance overlay isn't showing GPU utilization. Obviously it's working since It'm getting 60FPS at 1080p in high settings on Persona 3 Reload, and CPU utilization is only 14%, and the 5800X isn't an APU.

Not sure who needs to hear this, but if you have an AMD card and are confused about why you can't turn ray tracing on in Pragmata, you have to add

%command% /WineDetectionEnabled:False to your launch args. No path tracing, but at least you can toggle RT on which does make things look a lot better.

I have managed, after much effort, to install and launch Steam on ARM on my Raspberry Pi 5. I have downloaded the Proton CachyOS latest build for ARM but I get this error in both games. Should I redownload or is this something known and broken on ARM? All other Proton version exit immediately when I try them.

I've gone through the process of installing it with a GE proton but it seems to not do anything, as when I hit HOME the menu doesn't popup.

any ideas?

ive tried verifying the files, uninstalling and re-installing, using another proton version (including ge-proton), and soing LD_PRELOAD=''

anyone know how i can fix these missing textures?

the game is bloodless and im using arch btw on a laptop with and i5-11400H, a 3060m and 16 gigs of ram

Hi I'm currently running GTA IV on my t470.

i5 7th gen

8 gigs or ram

Intel 620 hd

proton experimental through steam

(Arch btw)

it has this weird green and red light across the screen, and doesn't run as smoothly even on low settings and resolution.

I'd like it to run on at least 30 fps. if it's possible.

I want to test RTX Remix, but it’s not working on CachyOS. It worked once, but never again. I correctly installed FusionFix, various fixes, and RTX Remix. I've tried Proton CachyOS, Proton Experimental, and standard Proton.

My launch options for this game are:

PROTON_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 WINEDLLOVERRIDES="dinput8=n,b" %command% -nomemrestrict -norestrictions -availablevidmem 8192

It only lets me run the installer. I ran it from both lutris and steam, and it only installs the launcher but never actually opens it.

Yo! I'd like to announce that Zordeer is now available on Flathub; it's a Qt launcher for running games via Wine/Proton/UMU.

I've recently swapped over to Linux from Windows because of the egregious actions of Microsoft in the legislation issues with age verification becoming a thing. It is much more difficult to play anything that isn't just regular vanilla whichever game I play, and sometimes, it's impossible to play certain games even though they should be playable. Is there a way to easily find information and resources that will help me fix the problems that I have? Or should I just stick with Windows and deal with the idiocy that's coming?

Hi everyone, I'm excited to share that volt-gui has its 1.4.0 release.

For those unfamiliar, volt-gui is a straightforward GUI tool for creating and modifying the "volt" script, along with other performance related tweaks. Its main goal is to make it as easy as possible to configure a Linux PC for gaming or general performance improvements.

With it, you can configure a huge variety of environment variables taken from official NVIDIA, Mesa, Freedesktop, Proton, DXVK, VKD3D-Proton, Gamescope, MangoHud and LSFG documentation (and in some cases, even from source code when they weren't documented anywhere else). This release focuses heavily on expanding that coverage.

Main changes in 1.4.0:

• The entire UI has been redesigned and modernized.
• Added Proton and Wine environment variable support, including DXVK, synchronization, upscaling (FSR4, DLSS, XeSS), NVIDIA libraries, Wayland support, and audio configuration.
• Added full DXVK environment variable support, covering upstream DXVK (HUD, frame rate limiter, device filtering, HDR, inline config, shader cache, debug options), dxvk-low-latency (including VRR-aware frame pace modes), and dxvk-sarek.
• Added vkd3d-proton support, covering device selection, swapchain present mode, shader cache, all VKD3D_CONFIG flags (ray tracing, queue control, NVIDIA static CBV, breadcrumbs, and more), and the DXIL SPIRV RDNA3 workaround for FSR4 on RDNA3 hardware.
• Added Gamescope compositing window manager settings.
• Added extensive GPU environment variables for both Mesa and NVIDIA drivers, including DRI configuration options.
• Each setting now shows exactly what it does through descriptions. Please note: I'm just one person, so some descriptions might contain mistakes. If you find any, please report them :)
• Migrated the build system to a Makefile, replacing the individual shell scripts.
• Added AppImage support and a full release build target.
• Added dependency hash checking via shasum.
• Removed the volt-helper script dependency.
• Updated technical references and did multiple code refactors/cleanups.

One thing to be aware of: CPU Management, Disk Configuration, Kernel Parameters, and the Extras tab have been temporarily removed. These features required per-subsystem handling (memory, CPU, disk, etc. each worked differently), and I haven't yet found a generic approach that covers all of them cleanly. They might return in a future release once a proper standard is in place, like the one I now have for env vars and arguments. As again, im only one person.

One of the user friendly features that carries over is the ability to select your OpenGL and Vulkan renderer from a list detected on your system. Once applied, the correct parameters are automatically added to the volt script, so you don't have to worry about manual setup.

I originally built this to help friends switching from Windows 10 to Linux, aiming to make configuring options as accessible as possible. I'm very happy with how far it's come, but I'm always open to ideas, if you have a feature in mind, open an issue.

Here are some images of the program:

A while back I transitioned an older win10 laptop into a sort of media/entertainment platform using Linux Lite to sort of dip my toes into the water so to speak.

As of now I’m in the process of planning out an upgrade for my gaming PC and part of that process is migrating to Linux from Win10, mostly. I’ll likely have to go with a dual boot configuration of win10/Linux here though.

I’ve picked the distro(CachyOs), I’ve picked the environment(XFCE) but I’m sort of stuck on which file system to select.

I’ve narrowed it down to either xfs or zfs and I need 1 piece of information to help me make that choice.

I have gathered enough information to know that on a casual level XFS is comparatively faster than ZFS; however I do see that ZFS does have a lot of extra tools at its disposal.

Namely ZRAID. So the question I will end with is can the ZFS file system outperform the XFS file system if there are a few drives in a striped configuration? As in how efficient is this tool?

Many thanks in advance.

I'm looking to undervolt my CPU, I'm using amdctl because I didn't see option to change voltage in BIOS. Command amdctl -m -g reveals I have 6 Pstates for each thread.

How should I go about it? Should I change all Pstates at once or one at the time? By how much? Should I leave some of them as they are since CPU in those states isn't working that hard anyway? After making changes I will also be making torture tests and those take time so I want to find reasonable amount of voltage to lower before testing.

For more info this is part of what amdctl -m -g spits out
