The error log

Hi there!

So whenever I try opening up my Minecraft and the loading starts, it just immediately closes or crashes. Then I checked up for some crash logs and unfortunately found this: "A fatal error has been detected by the Java Runtime Environment." I have never encountered this error before and everything was running well with my Minecraft before I updated my jdk-openjdk. After some digging, some of the forums I've read said that updating openjdk should fix this. I'm already in the latest version which is weird enough. Reinstalling both minecraft or openjdk doesn't help either. My guess was that updating openjdk was the cause of this error. What do you guys think I should do?

Hey,

I'm trying to run WoW Classic on my machine, but I run into some lag issues.

I'm running Linux Mint 21.3, and launching WoW either via battle net in Lutris 0.5.9.1-1 or directly through wine 6.0.3

When trying to launch wow.exe through wine I get error; RtlpWaitForCriticalSection in console.

I read that WoW should be run in dxvk mode v1.10.3/2.3.1 (which I do in the runner in Lutris), however I don't see the option enabled ingame, only DirectX11 shows as an graphics API option. Battle.net is launched with the command line arguments "-d3d11"

I have nouveau drivers for a NVIDIA graphics card. Is it correct that nouveau don't support Vulkan drivers currently? If so the issue might be there? NVK Nvidia supports vulkan drivers, but aren't supported on Linux Mint 21.3.

There is an option to build the driver itself if that could help solve the issue.

​

Btw: Ingame I can read the text: Compiling shaders 0-100 a bunch of times.

Help is greatly appreciated:)

what GPU you guys use, and what mesa/kernel, and how's the experience using it? (does it crash often or something)

1 answer per GPU please, reply as thread for same GPU

Hello people. I'm trying Nobara OS. I installed Yakuza 8 and the cinematics show fine, but when I load my saved game, the screen goes black. Likewise, I even go to the pause menu and mostly everything appears fine, except the characters. (Screenshot attached). It's like the display has layers and one of them is missing?

This game is Platinum in ProtonDB. I even tested different proton versions as the testimonies there. Tried: Experimental, 9 beta, 8 and 7. No luck.

Any tips or hints I could try? I would love to go full Linux for gaming.

I have an intel i7 13th, RTX 4070Ti, 2 WD black SSDs, one with Windows and the other with Nobara.

Thanks for your help

I have posted this in a couple of places as hopefully someone might know a solution.

Hi all, yesterday I changed a partition size of my internal SSD. When partition manager finished the request it came back with 'finished with errors, aborted' but still changed the partition to what I wanted. When trying to boot back into my steamos partition it wouldn't load and just hung on the steam deck logo. I thought I could then load instead through the loading from file feature - efi - steamos etc. which then brought me to this message.

Now even when I try to load the 'normal' way it does the same. (This photo is a copy from online, but my message is identical)

I hope someone can walk me through a fix, I have seen online it's possible to fix but the steps are normally explained quite basically and I would need a little more information.

Thanks in advance all, I really done want to have to wipe my deck as l've put two years on tinkering into it.

Someone already were able to run P5X in linux without VMs?

I've already tried, but i always get a black screen in the launcher

Hello!

Once again I'm struggling trying to make a game run in Linux... 😅

I have tried running through steam, Lutris and Heroic but the game always crashes, if I use a ProtonGe version higher than 8 it crashes on the startup and if I use a lower one it crashes like 2 minutes after starting the game, is there something I'm missing...?

I still can join multiplayer games but the game suddenly freezes after a couple minutes, I'm using Linux Mint 21 and this is the first time I've tried a game that has crashed so many times...

If someone has already sorted out this kind of issue, please, let me know...

Hello, I'm pretty new around linux. I want to know which Distro of linux has the best performance (Linux mint or Ubuntu (Currnetly installed)). Thanks in advance!

First, an important note: Intel increased the upscale ratio in XeSS 1.3, meaning the new Ultra Quality is actually the old Quality, and the new Quality is actually the old Balanced, etc. While they stated this in the release notes, it is still very misleading for end users. The same-named preset settings now provide more FPS with lower image quality, and many people likely won’t know the reason if they don’t read the release notes. If you compare using the actual upscale ratio, the improvement isn’t more FPS, but better clarity for objects in motion, although some image instability was introduced.
Digital Foundry made a detailed comparison between XeSS 1.2, XeSS 1.3, FSR 2.2 and DLSS 3.7 in this video
Now, here’s how to try XeSS 1.3:
- First, backup the old libxess.dll file in your game folder, usually located in the same folder as the game's .exe file.
- Download the XeSS SDK zip file from here.
- Unpack the zip; the new libxess.dll is inside the bin folder, replace the old libxess.dll with it.
The game will now use XeSS 1.3. However, the new upscale presets like Ultra Quality Plus (which is the old Ultra Quality) won't be available until the game developer updates the setting.
