I saw a ton of news from Nvidia and dynamic frame gen looks seriously awesome. Has anyone heard anything about Linux support from them? I am beyond excited to switch to Linux as soon as possible, but still enjoy Nvidia's features very, very much at the moment on Windows.

Finally! One of the most annoying issues is your system going to sleep while gaming with a controller, and KDE Plasma 6.6 will solve it.

Hello, I’m using gpu-screen-recorder mostly for taking clips while gaming with my friends. It works great but I’d like to be able to change discord’s audio separately from the game and my own mic.

I am using the “new” interface if that makes a difference. Currently, audio track #1 is set to record my headset’s output with “Chromium” (discord) as an audio application being excluded. Audio track #2 is only the “Chromium” application audio. And audio track #3 is my mic.

When I take a clip into my editing software, track 1 is my headset’s output including discord audio, track 2 is only discord audio, and track 3 is my mic.

Anyone know how I can fix this? Thanks for any help.

So i heard about the asrock bc 250 which looks good but I also seen that its prize doubled because of the popularity of the device. Do you guys know any other mining card which is still cheap considering its power for gaming?

Hi everyone,

I wanted to share a small tool I made for Lenovo IdeaPad Gaming 3 (15ACH6) or any other laptop (if works) users running Linux.

The Problem: When switching power profiles (Fn+Q), the NVIDIA GPU often gets stuck at a lower power limit (60W) instead of its full potential (85W). This happens because nvidia-powerd doesn't always refresh correctly when the ACPI profile changes.

The Solution: I created a lightweight systemd automation that monitors the power profile file. When you press Fn+Q, it automatically restarts the nvidia-powerd.service after a short delay to ensure the full 85W limit is applied.

It uses a systemd.path unit, so it consumes zero CPU while waiting—it only reacts when the profile actually changes.

GitHub Repository:https://github.com/jaakko18-wq/Lenovo-IdeaPad-Gaming-3-Legion-Nvidia-Powerd-Automator

The repo includes an easy install.sh script to set everything up. Tested on CachyOS, but should work on any distro with nvidia-powerd.

Hope this helps someone else get those extra frames!

Hello I have been having issues with my computer crashing after leaving it on for an extended period of time. I've been having this issue in both Fedora and Arch, requiring turning off my computer through the PSU power switch which as you can imagine isn't exactly great for my hardware. Normally I just turn off my PC but in the age of the 100GB game I'm often required to just leave the Computer running overnight to download.

If you play Minecraft on Linux, you probably encountered the misplaced cursor problem: you open a GUI/Menu/Interface, and for some reason, the cursor is on the side of the screen, so u move it to the center, then, later, open another menu... now it's in the corners.

It's a problem that just recently catched my attention, as it got progressively frustating to deal with. So, now that I finally fixed it, I'm making this post, so other players may find it useful for fixing their own games.

NOTE: I use the PrismLauncher, from Flatpak/Flathub. You probably use another one, and this little guide may work to you, but here, I'm gonna do an extra step, so Prism users will have a better experience.

The direct solution: gamescope

gamescope, a software tool made by Valve, has the key feature that will allow us to fix the cursor problem: --force-grab-cursor, an extra parameter that will handle the mouse by it's relative positioning (or that's what I understand that it does), making the game, practically, handle it's own "cursor".

I played with it a little bit, and saw that, when used TAB to change to another application different from the game, there was a "copy" of my cursor inside Minecraft's screen, weird, but ok I guess.

The guide:

First, you may install gamescope, you can do it by your distribution's package manager (recommended), or even build it from source (valve's github).

Then, once installed, in order to use gamescope with prism-launcher u can use the command: gamescope --force-grab-cursor -- flatpak run org.prismlauncher.PrismLauncher

An instance of gamescope will then be launched containing the prism-launcher instance, which u can use normally, and thus will launch minecraft inside gamescope.

If u use PrismLauncher from outside Flatpak, u can also contain it inside gamescope, the command will be something like: gamescope --force-grab-cursor -- PRISM_LAUNCHER_COMMAND. Please note that I didn't use the exact command, as I actually don't know how to launch the normal prism launcher, srry... but u get the point!

There is however a very problematic thing over here: as the prism instance is launched inside gamescope, the GUI will probably get resized, blurry, and very disgusting to look at for long times... So, that's why the EXTRA STEP: make PrismLauncher manage the gamescope instance himself.

You see, there is an interesting feature of this launcher, and it is the wrapper-command, a setting option which will use an extra command at the sime time as the launcher starts the minecraft instance (that's why it's a wrapper), allowing us to insert the gamescope's command just there.

There are still a problem however, for the flatpak users, gamescope needs to exist inside flatpak to actually be useful.

In order to install it use the command: flatpak install gamescope, AND THEN SELECT THE OPTION 24.08, because there are many versions to choose, and the version 24.08 is the default one, practically the one that stands as the "base" (and the one that I used and worked for me, you may use another one if u encounter a problem, if u desire).

Once installed, u can check it's existance using flatpak list.

And now, as the final thing to do, we will open PrismLauncher normally, select the game instance that u want to use with gamescope, and select Edit -> Configuration -> Custom Commands -> and then check the Custom Commands box. Down there will be the "wrapper command" field, in which u will enter the EXACT command: gamescope --force-grab-cursor -- , and EVEN include a white space at the end of the "--", you may not see it, but it must be there, as the normal script literally uses ...grab-cursor -- flatpak..., so, ADD IT, just to prevent problems in the near future.

Now you can exit the settings, and hopefully launch the game using gamescope.

Extra takes:

- You may want to maximize the screen, because having a different GUI dimension could make it look weird.

- Also, in the game's graphics settings, enable fullscreen, so Minecraft can adapt to gamescope.

- And, if the game interfaces are too big/small for you, change the interface size setting from "auto" to "2x" (for some reason it worked for me... nice)

- If you find this little guide useful, or maybe wrong at some point, please note me :D

I should theoretically be able to choose 1920x1080 but the game doesn't allow it. It should though.

Anyone have any ideas/settings that I should try?

already tried the launch option "-w 1920 switch"
