After a string of annoying incidents after updates causing stability problems on Fedora, there's a new proposal put forward to help improve things.

It's not officially out yet, but you can now jump in early to Soulframe, the in-development action RPG from the developers of the popular Warframe.

I have a fresh Bazzite install, after having such a good time with SteamDeck, but ForzaHorizon 5 does not work at all. Tried Proton 7 to 9, Experimental, GE-Latest.

After clicking Play it starts, synchronizes cloud and stops without even window opening.

I have it installed on an external SSD, but files are validated. Once I got a problem with Experimental install, where it reported "Could not write to disk".

Any ideas? Thanks

--- Specs --- Operating System: Bazzite 43 KDE Plasma Version: 6.5.3 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.20.0 Qt Version: 6.10.1 Kernel Version: 6.17.7-ba19.fc43.x86_64 (64-bit) Processors: 12 × AMD Ryzen 5 5600X 6-Core Processor Memory: 16 GiB of RAM (15.5 GiB usable) Graphics Processor: AMD Radeon RX 6700

EDIT: Checked my steamdeck where it works flawlessly, login and everything, it uses Proton 10.0-3

Hi,

I'm writing this message here just to know if this is also something happening to more people:

Since recently (2-3 days ago) the Steam Recordings stopped worked on certain games and in others they work "weird", like it says it's not recording (red dot is grey and hover message is "not recording") but you can see the blue bar and get clips, however it's not possible to access to the full recording from Steam interface

I.e.:

- ARC Raiders: not working at all, can't do clips or anything. It worked perfectly before

- Peglin: working "weird", it records (blue bar) but the red icon is grey and full recording is not accessible from Steam UI. I can create clips, and they're displayed in Steam UI ok

I tried restarting the folder of recordings, and I tested in 2 different computers. I also tested with the different recording modes (all time recording or activate manually), etc and no luck

I'm using Linux Mint 22, my GPUs in both computers are AMD (different models)

Thanks on advance! Looking forward to see your comments

HELLDIVERS 2 is still one of the best online co-op action games around, and we're finally going to be able to get a minigun to really tear through enemies.

More turn-based strategy goodness inspired by Advance Wars? Yes please. Apes Warfare gives us another spin on the classic genre out now in Early Access.

While i got >120FPS on Windows, WarThunder on Linux is between 20-60FPS. It starts usable bur after some minutes the FPS start dropping till the whole game just stutters and the picture get grainy.
I do not have a similar problem with any game under linux.

I#m using Fedora KDE 43 actually, but the same problem i have since about 5 years or so. I started playing warthunder on Linux, but at one point years ago i was forced to move to Windows because of that.

It does not make any difference if i install WarThunder via steam or via the linux-installer.

Does anybody knew that problem? Is that typical or just "my fault" somehow?

I start warthunder via the Starter, not via Steam.

Embracer Group have announced they're once again shrinking, after previously going on a crazy spending spree and then having to make lots of cuts.

Very curious as someone that only really plays Embark and 1047 Games on Linux, and then Fortnite on Windows. It's the only reason I'm still dual booting, but I'd be willing to ditch M$ for a great alternative for sure.

As the title says. I am not able to login to zenless. Has anyone faced a similar issue? I am using Popos with Lutris

Which is great! The game really sucked the soul out of me.

Do you guys recommend any similar games, especially with a top-down view that work on Linux?

Thanks!

When I add `gamemoderun %command%` to a game's launch options in Steam, the game launches, the performance enhancements kick in, but my joystick becomes completely unresponsive once the game window is active. It's as if the input is being ignored or hijacked.

What i tried:

• GameMode Config: I've checked my gamemode.ini file (~/.config/gamemode.ini). It only contains standard CPU/IOPrio settings. There are no options related to hardware input or USB management.
• Without GameMode: If I launch the exact same game without `gamemoderun %command%` in the launch options, the joystick works perfectly fine.

I do a lot of modding and this would come in extremely handy.

I am very used to Unix/GNU env, been using it for work since 2012, from Ubuntu to OpenSUSE, trying Fedora and Manjaro as well. But my last experience with gaming on linux was early 2010, using Wine and POL.

Here is my specs :

• Ryzen 9950X3D
• 64GB DDR5 6000MT (4*16)
• ASRock X870E Nova Wifi
• Nvidia RTX5090 FE
• SN770 2TB
• SN850X 4TB

Should I go the usual route of installing Ubuntu/Mint and start from there, or should I go with a gaming oriented distro (Pop_OS, Bazzite, Cachy) ?

Hello guys. Another fed up user of Windows here that is on the verge of switching to Linux. But I was never on Linux so I have 4-5 questions.

My PC has the following specs

Ryzen 7 5700X3D Rx 9070 XT Nitro+ Nvme 1TB for the OSanf apps NVME 2TB for games 20TB Hdd for backups, movies via plex etc 64GB DDR4 3600

After watching like a billion YouTube videos, I am between Bazzite and Zorin OS. I don't play online games with the exception of World of Warcraft. I play mostly on Steam (like 90% of my games are there) but I do have many games on battle.net, Ubisoft Connect, Rockstar Launcher, GoG that I don't wanna lose. So my questions are

1. Is my hardware OK? Will I have any compatibility problems? Are there drivers and will the OS use their full power?

2. I know steam is, but are the other launchers available? I saw a few videos about faungus launcher, lutris etc but most videos were about OK it is running. But does the launcher and games run well? Will I have probl3ms in wow, cyberpunk and assassins creed to mention few from multiple launchers?

3. What about apps? I don't use Microsoft or Adobe apps but I am a heavily Google User. Will I have access to Chrome and Google drive (the rest I use on browser)?

Yes, I know you probably answered these questions a trillion times and I am sorry about asking them again. Thank you in advance for any answers

Hey everyone! Windows user looking to switch over to linux, but confused about all the distros and. My situations is:
- CS student, who is gonna go into DevOps(a lot of bash scripting and I really wanna get comfortable working with linux)
- Plays games like cs2 and dota2(90% of what i play) and some small co-op/multiplayer games or AAA titles like God of War
- Running my pc on AMD gpu and cpu.

What distro should I use? Should i go with the more classic ones like mint or ubuntu? I've also heard about arch a lot(but don't really know anything about it) and bazzite because i looked up about gaming on linux.

I'm open to any suggestions. I'm planning to keep one of my ssds for windows, so i can play some of the AAA titles or run windows specific programs for my hobbies. As long as I can play cs2 and dota2 without a performance hit or minimal on linux, i'm okay with it. I've been planning on learning to get comfortable working with linux for a while now, and i'm getting fed up with microsoft and windows, so i think this is the right time to switch over. Thanks for the advice!
