Help with Assetto Corsa
I have been trying to get assetto corsa working for several days now with no luck. Right now at I am at a point where if I try to launch the game from steam it sorta gives up and steam shows the green play button again. If I try running it with Proton GE I get a weird uninstaller error saying something about the application with GUID was not found. I know it should work but I have no idea why it is not. I have Protontricks installed at the moment. At some point I was having an issue where it was asking for a .NET to be installed but that hasn't happened for a while. Any help or lead would be greatly appreciated.

Just got a 1440p monitor, certain games freeze + black screen on launch. (Linux Mint)
GPU: RTX 3060
CPU: I5 10400f
RAM: 32Gb DDR4
Monitor: 1440p 320Hz
Every game was working pefectly fine until I got a new monitor, now certain steam games (Subnautica and Teardown) just have a black screen and freeze on launch. When this happens I have to press Ctrl+Alt+Backspace to restart the environment because alt+tab and alt+f4 fails to work. I tried setting the resolution and refresh rate in the launch options but that causes it to work like 20% of the time. I have the 580-open Nvidia driver and the driver version 580.95.05.

Noob in linux
Hi, how's it going? I recently switched to Linux. I have a Lenovo LOQIRX10 laptop with an i5 13450hx and an RTX 5050, mainly because I noticed an improvement in the laptop's temperatures, which went from 66°C to 48°C. However, when I play games, I notice that the fans don't spin very fast, and this causes the temperatures to rise significantly. I haven't found a way to control them. I tried Lenovo Legion Linux, but I couldn't get it to work. If you know how I could improve this, I would be grateful.

The Optimal, Performance-Centric Method of Installing Windows on virt-manager/QEMU/KVM
High End AMD PC Barely Running Cyberpunk2077
I recently switched to Linux, and gaming has been great overall until today.
Cyberpunk 2077 is completely unplayable.
On Windows, I played at 3440×1440 using the Ray Tracing Psycho preset with FSR + Frame Generation, getting around 120 FPS. On Linux, performance has fallen off a cliff:
- RT Psycho (FSR + Frame Gen): ~2–3 FPS
- RT Medium (no FSR / no Frame Gen): ~20 FPS
- Low settings: ~70 FPS
I’ve tried reinstalling the game in case it was a bad install, but that didn’t help. I also tried different versions of proton. At this point I’m pretty lost.
System Specs:
- OS: Zorin OS 18
- CPU: Ryzen 7 7800X3D
- GPU: XFX Mercury 9070 XT
- RAM: 32 GB Aorus DDR5 6000 CL36
- Motherboard: B650M Aorus Elite AX
- PSU: Corsair SF1000L

Graphics issue - Using Arch and Lutris
Hi all,
Today I tried installing some games in my Arch PC, Im still new to arch, I reciently migrated but there is a lot of information in the internet and many already had stumble with the issues that I had so no problem there and learning in the process :).
Today I wanted to take a step forwards and try gaming, I used Lutris and tried playing Skyrim.
Game open and FPS werent that bad, however graphics looks like this, all textures fail and objects look kind of transparent. NPCs and player were ok.
What could be the issue here?
I would expect to have a problem with wine, dxvk or vulkan (both three gave me problems while installing), but I cant tell. I find it kinda hard to search for this specific problem as english is not my first language and Im not a tech guy to explain what is happening in the picture.
Thanks yall in advance for the support :)

linux/bazzite help!!
game lags badly after exactly 25 minutes of playtime on hyprland arch linux
Driver issues ig
Hi I'm pretty new to Linux (kinda). And recently i switched to Ubuntu on my main pc. Now I use a GT 730 2Gb GDDR5 version and with the nvidia 470 drivers, i am locked to 1024x763 4:3. So i decided to purge the nivida drivers and stick to nouveau. But now whenever I'm opening half life 2 (which ran perfectly on windows) or Automation: the car company tycoon, it just won't run. Now is there something I can do here or should I switch distros?

Source Games crashing
I recently switched over to EndevourOS, and went to install Source games (portal, hl2, ect.) The games open, menus work, but the moment I try to start a new game, the game closes. Is there any fix to this? I wanna play my portal lmao

Steam doesn't use dGPU
I have an RTX 3050 Ti laptop and Steam doesn't use my graphics card for games, instead using the integrated graphics on my laptop. When I launch a game, both Btop++ and Plasma System Monitor show that my integrated GPU usage spikes to max while my GPU usage stays the same when running a game. Oddly, nvidia-smi shows that the exe process is running on my gpu. I am using Hyprland on Arch Linux, and that is running perfectly fine on my GPU. I will also note that this problem doesn't appear when I try to play games in my Epic Games library through the Heroic Games Launcher.

bad proton performance on a fresh fedora install
im gonna start this out by saying this is literally my first day dailying linux. ive freshly installed fedora on my asus um3402ya (with the ryzen 7730u) and wanted to poke around with some games and ive found performance to be... laughable
im using performance mode, i tried making sure all my drivers are good and i believe they are, and yet rocket league is right around 30 fps, beamng and cyberpunk are unplayable and i didnt expect incredible performance for either titles but i didnt imagine even on the lowest settings to be running at like 15 fps.
im by no means knowledgeable of linux, neither am i incredibly tech savvy, but i hope i can get some help or answers. i mean, maybe im just overestimating how powerful my computer is and i realize i should probably compare performance on windows but rn i just cant be bothered

No to big companies
I'm looking for people to create a united community and join forces to educate and attract more people to Linux, to help people overcome their fear of Linux, and to pressure companies that refuse to support it and end Microsoft's monopoly. We need to make some noise to be heard, and I won't stop until we achieve that. If you want to join, you'll find the link in my profile. Every little bit helps in a revolution in this sector.

Does any "gaming" Linux distro support a NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Graphics Card?
Heroic Launcher game Control gives achievement error every time it's launched
We could not restore your progress on locked achievements. All previously unlocked achievements, rewards and saved game progress are unaffected by this. If you proceed now, your progress on locked achievements will be reset.
The game... seems to work fine otherwise.

HDMI to a TV from an AMD GPU, is 4K120hz 4:2:2 possible?
I’ve seen a few people mention 4K120hz with 4:2:2 instead of 4:2:0, via HDMI, How do you achieve this? Using Fedora Kinoite (KDE) and when I set it to 4K 120hz with 8bit color (which I was under the impression is what is needed for 4:2:2, instead of 10bit) it still does 4:2:0. My tv supports 4:2:2 8bit at 120hz, as the PS5 does it fine.

Installing games on Hard Drive on Steam
I'm new to Linux and have recently installed Linux Mint Cinnamon 22.2
I recently installed a game on Steam on my hard drive. When I try to open it from my desktop, it opens Steam, but because my HDD is in sleep mode, Steam thinks the game isn’t installed and can’t find the hard drive. Is there a way to make Steam wake up my hard drive automatically when I open a game installed on it, instead of having to manually wake the drive first and then run the game? Or are there any better solutions?
