Searching AMD fine wine benchmark
Is there a benchmark comparison for Linux that evaluates the performance of an AMD GPU after release* vs recently? For example: a Polaris-based gpu like RX 580 on Ubuntu 18.04/18.10 release compared to Ubuntu 24.04/24.10 recently. The distro is important, but it should be the same distro and same hardware. Bonus points for multiple benchmarks e.g. yearly.
Most benchmarks i found use different hardware (apart from GPU) or do not benchmark old enough AMD GPUs anymore.
The main objective is to have direct comparison of the linux stack in relation to time after hw release.

Problème .exe linux
Salut, je viens de passer mon pc windows sur linux en dual boot pour avoir le temps de faire la transition, mais j'ai un problème. Je possède un jeu en crack en .exe et normalement je suis sensé pouvoir le lancer avec wine. Mais quand je le lance il y a un écran noir. Le jeu et lancé je vois même le curseur custom du jeu mais le jeu ne se lance pas. Autre chose aussi est ce que vous sauriez comment je peux faire pour transférer ma sauvegarde et reprendre ou j'en étais ? Merci 🙏

Installing mod collections with MO2?
MO2 works great on CachyOS, but is there a way to install mod collections or do you have to install the mods one by one?

Linux for Poker?
Hello guys!
I'm done with Windows, really. I've used Linux for many years, so i know the basics of it, but i don't use for a few years now.
I play poker for a living, and i need GGPoker - which didn't work on Linux back then, even with Wine.
Anyone here knows the situation these days? Is there a way i can play GGPoker on a Mint?
Thank you!

Proton/wine games launch slowly
This happened in a matter of weeks, my steam/lutris games launch in 40/60 sec instead of usual 2-3 seconds(im not including shader time). (if i try a native game it launches instantly). So i am guessing it has to be wine/proton
I tried everything, enabled logging, uninstalled proton, uninstalled games etc.. Im using proton ge, tried multiple versions ofc and same issue.
The game performance is perfect once its launched. But the slow launch is triggering my ocd.
My system is arch with hyprland, filestem btrfs, 9070xt and 7800x3d.
im wondering if anyone experienced something similar, if you need more information let me know.

Play my demo, give feedback, and get your name added to the game
Hi everyone! :)
I’m running a small promo: finish the Lootbane Demo on Steam , give feedback, and your name will be added to the game as an elite enemy.
How it works
- Play the demo and leave feedback (what you liked, what could be improved, bugs, balance, etc.).
- Submit your name suggestion with your feedback, that name will be randomly used for one of the elite enemies in the next update.
Rules
- English only.
- No NSFW or offensive names.
- No futuristic/sci-fi names (keep them fantasy/medieval vibe).
- No numbers.
- Max 10 characters for the name.

Replacement for NVIDIA Broadcast
Does anyone know of a good one? This may not be the right place to ask this but it’s really the one thing holding me back. I use it to stream.

Need a bit of guidance!
I’ve been thinking about switching from Windows to Linux for about a year or two now. I mostly play solo games, and from what I’ve seen, Linux seems awesome for that!
My biggest concern is anti-cheat compatibility, especially kernel-level anti-cheat. That’s the main thing holding me back.
The multiplayer games I currently play are: - League of Legends - Valorant - World of Warcraft and others battlenet titles - Fortnite
From what I understand, some of these use kernel-level anti-cheat systems, and that’s where Linux can become a problem. I’m totally fine tinkering a bit, but I don’t want my multiplayer experience to become a constant headache. Would love to hear from people who were in a similar situation!

How do I make controllers work on Lutris
Probably a super stupid question but I had a PS4 controller and another wired controller with xbox layout that I wanted to connect to my laptop to play games, however, for some reason, launching through lutris never worked. I thought it was probably an issue with my laptop, tried, never got it to work. However, I tried it through directly launching the games from the file folders, like the.exe, and it perfectly detected the controller, and I was able to play games normally.
Also, my controller did work with evtest as well as detected as js0 in the /dev/ input section, so its definitely not the system's fault, it even showed up as Xbox gamepad on wine control.
Surely, there must be a way to get controllers detected for games launched via lutris? Both ways used the same wineprefix, I think, need some help, thank you in advance.

Genuine question : Are the reports that Linux = Windows reserved to AMD users ?
Hello All,
I am putting an end to my Linux (Fedora KDE) experiment, after a bit more than a month of giving it a really fair shake ! I even bought a NVME drive just for that.
I really really liked it, it is so full of usefull little details and cool stuff, feels light and fast. I also had fun going back to a PC that makes you work for it (strange ? I grew up with DOS and no Internet to backup, haha)
I have encountered issues, and overcome them for the productivity side of my PC usage, but I really feel like I am leaving a lot of performances on the table by using an nVidia GPU (4070ti+Ryzen 5 7600X).
Now, I am back to Windows 11, which is annoying but just works full power, no questions asked... And I am waiting for the news that Nvidia fixes its drivers, if ever.
So.... back to title : are all the super positive comments, Youtube videos, etc. just made by people using AMD GPUs ? I am really feeling that might be the case :(

Experience with Pop_OS
Hello everyone, what are your experiences with Pop_OS?
I want to switch my tower PC from Win11 to Linux (7800x3D, 7800XT Hellhound). I've chosen Pop_OS for this and would like to know how satisfied those who use it are with it.
I've been running Mint on my notebook for years, but Mint isn't supposed to be ideal for gaming.
