How do I get Fallout 4 to work?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 17. April 2024 - 17:07

Currently using Pop!_OS 22.04 and I've tried Proton 8.0-5, Proton Experimental, Proton 7.0-6 and Proton GE 9-4.

The game only works fullscreen on Proton 7, but menu navigation with keyboard goes so fast that it's unusable.

Proton 8, Experimental and GE: the game freezes a second after starting in fullscreen mode and the cursor goes out of the game in windowed mode.

If this isn't the right subreddit to ask, tell me and I'll remove the post

Steam doesn't recognize Bluetooth Stadia controller

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 17. April 2024 - 16:48

Hey folks, I'm trying to get my Bluetooth Stadia controller to work with Steam. I've read some of the other Stadia posts here, but haven't found a solution. Any help appreciated.

Current issue: I have a Stadia controller that's been switched to Bluetooth. I've used it successfully on Windows for a year. I can connect the controller to Linux via Bluetooth. It shows up in my devices. But when I go to Steam settings, it shows No Controller Detected. As far as Steam is concerned, the controller doesn't exist. Any ideas how to fix?

I'm running Linux Lite Ubuntu 20.04.6 LTS Kernel Linux 5.4.0-176-generic (x86-64)

My hardware is an HP Chromebox

Wow running poorly

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 17. April 2024 - 16:08

Hello everyone, wow started running poorly yesterday, and I can’t figure out why. I’m on Pop!_OS 22.04, I have a Ryzen 9 7950X3D. A Radeon 7800 XT, and 32 gb of RAM. I’m running Battle.net through Lutris. My wine version is wine-ge-8-26-x86_64. I’ve uninstalled lutris, battle net and all the games and wow/wow classic still perform terribly.

Nvidia resizeable BAR blocked by another BAR

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 17. April 2024 - 14:07

In short, I have a 3090 for which lspci -vvs shows:

Capabilities: [bb0 v1] Physical Resizable BAR BAR 0: current size: 16MB, supported: 16MB BAR 1: current size: 256MB, supported: 64MB 128MB 256MB 512MB 1GB 2GB 4GB 8GB 16GB 32GB BAR 3: current size: 32MB, supported: 32MB

But dmesg reveals:

[ 0.513474] pci 0000:08:00.0: BAR 1 [mem 0x6000000000-0x600fffffff 64bit pref]: assigned [ 0.513520] pci 0000:08:00.0: BAR 3 [mem 0x6010000000-0x6011ffffff 64bit pref]: assigned [ 0.513543] pci 0000:08:00.0: BAR 0 [mem 0xa4000000-0xa4ffffff]: assigned

In short, BAR 1 may be resizable, but BAR 3 is blocking it.

This on a laptop (Lenovo P53) with i7-9850H and CM246 chipset. GPU is attached via TB3.

kernel command-line contains:

pci=assign-busses,realloc

Is there currently any way to convince the kernel to set aside 32GB address space for BAR 1 on boot? Or remap BAR 1 or 3 to somewhere else?

Anyone tried frostpunk 2 beta?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 17. April 2024 - 13:34

Hey guys, i tried frostpunk 2 beta yesterday. The game is running fine with proton at the moment but i am facing another problem. Whenever i exit the game, my monitor freaks out. The refresh rate drops and i can see screen fades to black very quickly, like flickering on old screens. I have to unplug all my cables including psu and restart my PC to solve it. What is causing this problem? The game, wayland, Mesa or proton? Have you experienced something similar with same or different games?

System Info: Archlinux, kernel 6.8 Mesa 24 AMD 6700xt gpu Proton (i think it was experimental version when i first launched the game) Swaywm 1.9
