Hi! I've been wanting to play Detroit: Become Human on my CachyOS install with PlayStation prompts, but with Steam Input it only shows Xbox prompts, and my DualSense controller isn't supported because the game only accepts DualShock 4 as a working PlayStation controller. Is it possible to emulate/spoof my DualSense so it shows up as a DualShock 4 for the game, so I can have proper inputs and prompts? I'd appreciate any help I can get with this.

Looking to spice up a Fallout Shelter play through, a bit curious if anyone's gotten mods to work via Steam launcher or some other sort of mod manager.

I know for somepeople that just use steam or have used https://github.com/DanielOgorchock/joycond may have experienced a simple way to use their joycons on linux, however for my case it has been impossible for the last few days. Bassycally i ran into this problem where bluetooth would recognize my controllers but they were not recognized by anything else. I have seen similar threats like https://www.reddit.com/r/linux_gaming/comments/1b93q77/linux_mint_nintendo_switch_joycons_not_getting/ so I tried installing joycond, followed all the steps and verified i activated the service on my computer but that really didn't make any difference, it has been somewhat of a frustrating experience for me so if anyone has a solution and it gets registered here i think it would be really useful for a lot of people.

For instance, i can connect both joycons to bluetooth and they are recognized in the menu but neither steam or any other program recognices it. Nor gamepad tester or whatever.

both joycons recognized and paired

not recognized in steam or any other program

As the title says, I have a Series X controller, my distro is Kubuntu, and so far ive tried quite possibly every fix there is, and I simply cannot get it to work.

I am trying to play Need For Speed - Shift on my laptop, via steam it works, there's controller support but Proton crashes it before the game loads. It seems to prefer running on wine.

The problem is that Steam is able to detect and properly use the controller, yet Lutris / Wine is unable to, no matter what game I play on Lutris. I have tried it on my other NFS titles, etc. None of which seem to work, anyone have a solution? I have tried AntiMicroX and its simply not precise enough (as the game requires controller like throttle inputs, turning, etc. AntiMicroX just uses keyboard inputs, though I may be mistaken.)As the title says, I have a Series X controller, my distro is Kubuntu, and so far ive tried quite possibly every fix there is, and I simply cannot get it to work.

Hey everyone pretty new to this got a legion go s recently and loved steam os so I came up with the idea to run a long hdmi cable from my pc to the tv across the room and thought id run a steamos like distro on another ssd and boot into that when i wanna couch game. Everything works fine but im at my wits end with gamepad support ive tried a dualsense an xbox series and an 8bitdo controller and they all work perfectly fine to control the steam interface but once i boot into a game it ceases to function. I can still press the guide button and quit the game but absolutely no functionality within the games themselves. Ive even tried switching to other distros I started with bazzite then tried Nobara and currently am running chimeraos all with the same issue any help would be super appreciated.

Hey all, not a technical user here seeking help with a crashing/freezing game. Im on Mint and I just picked up Crusader Kings 3 in the winter sale. Whenever I try to run it, I get to the "Initialising Game" window with the oil painting loading screens, but after about 30 seconds the loading animation freezes. The game will either crash from there, or my whole PC will go completely unresponsive. I've let it idle in that state for upwards of 30 minutes and nothing happens. I end up having to switch off the power to restart.

I've tried verifying the game files via the properties menu in my steam library, uninstalling and reinstalling, changing my driver from the open source X one to the recommended NVIDIA driver, launching the game in debug mode from the paradox launcher, and giving the executable file Sudo permissions and running it directly from the file manager. Nothing so far has worked.

I saw another Reddit thread with people having a similar problem from about 2 years ago, at which point the problem still wasnt solved.

I'm pretty miffed about this cause I was really excited to give it a go. Help is very much appreciated.

I recently got a BC-250 up and running with bazzite, and it won't output a video signal to my TV with a dp-to-hdmi cable, but if I plug it into the displayport on a monitor the video works fine. What gives?

Hello,

I have been playing Nightreign with my friends for a while now using proton without any issues. Today I tried to join their lobby and it caused my steam to crash, as well as freeze my game. This now happens 100% of the time. I had just played the game with them without issue two days ago. I am relatively new to linux and have been using CachyOS for a few months now, I would really appreciate anyone who can help me figure this out :)

I have tried many things that the internet and my friends have already told me to do to troubleshoot this:

- Use different Proton versions

- Verify game files

- Reboot internet and pc

- Clear Steam download cache

- reinstall the game and steam

- delete nightreign compatdata folder

I haven't tried custom proton versions but this seems like a relatively new issue. I also reproduced the crash while running steam from a terminal to see any crash logs. The most relevant lines to me were:

pipes.cpp : fatal stalled cross-thread pipe (pipe is disconnected)

pipes.cpp : fatal assert; application exiting

steam.sh: line 928: 2638 Segmentation fault (core dumped) "$STEAMROOT/$STEAMEXEPATH" "$@"

All I could gather from this is the seg fault part, which generally means it's a memory problem. I'm not sure what else I can test at this point

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated as I am out of ideas ;c

Thank you!

I use a Nintendo Switch Pro Controller, for reference.

Ever since I started using Linux Mint (Xfce), certain Steam games have been unable to read the start and select buttons, and have been reading clicking down on the right and left joysticks as those two buttons, respectively.
I made the switch to Linux a few days ago, and haven't played many games that required a controller. However, when I decided to play Borderlands 2 with my controller, I noticed this bug. I checked my in-game controls; the same as always. I checked my Steam Input bindings to see if that was the issue, because bl2 doesn't have native support for Switch controllers, but those were also unchanged. Nothing points to a personal error as being the issue here, and this had never happened while my laptop was running Windows 10.

There's really not much else I can do to troubleshoot this. Has anyone else seen this before? How might I rectify this issue?

TL;DR: I got a 9070XT for christmas and it now performs ~50% worse on linux compared to windows in the (admittedly few) benchmarks I've tried. My testing leads me to believe it's a software regression that somehow only I'm affected by.

On Christmas I got a RX 9070XT as an upgrade to my previous RX 6800. I installed it without issue into my system and booted up some games to test the performance. Only I discovered that my FPS was actually just barely *lower* with the 9070XT. The card is still reaching its maximum power draw and as far as I can tell is fully utilized.

To troubleshoot, I removed the card and put it in a nearly identical Windows PC and the performance was fine. That made me think it was a software issue with my system (Fedora 43), so I whipped out a spare SSD and freshly installed CachyOS to it, only the issue still remained. I also updated+reset BIOS (didn't work).

At this point, I was very worried it was a hardware problem, but then I installed Windows (for the first time in 3 years) and it ran great. Now's also a good time to mention that, although the card was a christmas gift for me, I was also the one to purchase it (about a month ago) because I frequently drive a route that makes it convenient for me to stop at Micro Center. Because of this, I installed and tested the card in my PC ahead of time to joyride I mean test it, and the card worked perfect in my linux system at the time.

All this leads me to the conclusion that there was some kind of software regression in the last month that has made the performance of the card worse, but I'm very hesitant to say that because I seem to be the only person on the entire internet who is affected. I would try rolling back several versions of the linux kernel and of mesa, but although I've exclusively used linux for 5 years now, I'm still a bit of a newbie who doesn't really know how to do that, and the experience on CachyOS where those are more up to date makes me wonder if that's even the problem. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Specifics:

My PC:

• Asrock Challenger 9070XT
• 5800X3D + 32GB ram @ 3600mhz
• 4K monitor

Windows test PC:

• 5900X + 48GB ram @ 3200mhz
• 1080p monitor (only ever ran Geekbench on it though)

Tested Apps:

• Minecraft (with shaders): ~45 fps on Linux vs ~90 on Windows
• Geekbench 6: ~110000(OpenCL)/160000(Vulkan) on Linux vs ~165000(OpenCL)/180000(Vulkan) on Windows
• Cyberpunk 2077: ~50fps on Linux at 4k Ultra (no RT) vs ~70 fps on Windows

is it still not possible to get the steam overlay working with HDR? I’m using the -steamos3 command as I’ve heard that can fix it, but i’m still not able to open the overlay. I’m launching with PROTON_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 PROTON_ENABLE_HDR=1 DXVK_HDR=1 ENABLE_HDR_WSI=1 %command%, no gamescope on an RTX 4090, on hyprland. I’ve basically have everything else for gaming solved besides this, I use gyro a lot so i’d need the overlay, thanks!

Hello, Linux community! I recently started using Linux (I love Linux), but there is some problem with Garry's Mod on my PC. I'm running the game with GE-Proton (flatpak), but I've noticed that regardless of my graphics settings, the game never works properly vertical synchronization. I was checking the Vsync settings, I tried different protons, and so on, nothing helped me. First, I wanted to know if someone had a similar problem, and secondly, how to solve it? I would be very grateful because this is my favorite game of all!

System:

• Zorin OS 18 (ubuntu 24.04 based)
• Kernel 6.14.0-37-generic
• X11 windowing system.
• Ryzen 7 7800X3D cpu
• 32 gb ram
• Nvidia 4070 Super gpu

I'm trying to play Diablo 2 Resurrected. Battlenet is installed through Lutris and run with GE-proton 10-27. D2R installs just fine, and launches and runs mostly without any hitch. However, if the window/application loses focus, such as through alt-tabbing to a different window or dragging the cursor over to my second monitor and clicking another window, the game will then freeze.

I have tried running the game in fullscreen and windowed mode with the same results.

I have also tried both Proton experiemental and Proton hotfix with the same result

I have tried with vsync on and off.

tl;dr

Diablo 2 Resurrected crashes when the game window loses focus.
