Game is Resident Evil Revelations 2 (Biohazard) installed in steam in Ubuntu 24 LTS (snap, but also tried with .deb version). Game crashes at every workbench unless it's exe file is located in the c: drive. Tested & works in Windows 10.

I tried creating a symlink from the Ge-Proton location to the game files location, made no difference.

I read something about using protontricks and setting the steam compat data path or ge-proton's path equivalent. This has to be written in the steam launch so I can still save to the cloud & I am unsure what steps to do.

I have been personally using XFCE for this. But this should work on about any Xorg based DE.

Battle.net on linux is a nightmare. But that isn't the only way to play Hearthstone.

In this post, the setup will go something like this - Hearthstone inside Android inside Waydroid inside Wayland inside Weston inside Xorg.

So start off by making sure virtualization is on. You can either do it from BIOS or by running

lsmod | grep kvm

If it is enabled, you should see kvm_<your-cpu> (kvm_intel, kvm_amd, etc.)
If it is not, you can enable it from your BIOS.

- Then install the required packages from pacman

sudo pacman -S waydroid weston lxc dnsmasq

Learn more about Waydroid, Weston, LXC, DNSMasq

- Then enable the service and check status

sudo systemctl daemon-reload sudo systemctl enable --now waydroid-container systemctl status waydroid-container

It should output Active (Running).

- Initialize Waydroid

sudo waydroid init -s GAPPS -f

- Start Wayland (do not close the terminal you started it from after starting)

weston --xwayland

Then open two different terminal and run this in order -
Terminal 1

waydroid session start

As soon as it says Android user is ready, run this in the second terminal -

waydroid show-full-ui

From there open Play Store, login, and install hearthstone like you would in a normal android.

Here's the link for the lazy or the dummy - the link

If you have any doubts - feel free to comment or DM.

I'm looking for a customizable front end. And when I say customizable, i don't mean like Pegasus FE customizable. Learning QML sounds like it would be a ton of work... I mean more like modded 3ds customizable. and preferably it should be easy to do custom organization too (also kinda like a 3ds)

Hello everyone, I'm a relatively new Linux user.

I'm thinking about playing Diablo IV on Linux, but I really dislike anti-cheat software (especially kernel-level ones like Vanguard or Ricochet). That's why I avoid games that use anti-cheat software. However, even though I've wanted to experience Diablo IV for a long time, I'm undecided about whether to buy the game because of the anti-cheat issue.

From my limited research, I understand that Diablo IV uses Blizzard's “Warden” system. What are your thoughts on this? Is it “cleaner” than others because it doesn't run at the kernel level? Does it affect system performance or privacy in a way I should be concerned about? And just as importantly, is it as “sticky” as the others? If any anti-cheat software is installed on the system, what's the best way to remove it?

I'd like to hear the community's thoughts on this. Thanks!

I'm not trying to play any heavy recent games, just classics like portal, flower. Stray, world of goo.

I don't care about getting the bestest FPS or whatever, just have some fun.

But as far as I can tell none of these games are playable at all. They have smooth perfect animations for 30s or so and then start stuttering for 10-20s then suddenly play perfectly fine for a while again.

I assume this is the problem with "shaders" but... Surely nobody is satisfied playing games like this?

This is all games I've tried and didn't seem to be affected by resolution or anything else happening on the machine. My laptop isn't a gamer machine but as I said, I don't care about getting the highest FPS or lowest ping, just being basically playable.

Installed EndeavorOS. When I first installed Discord and steam, neither worked. For steam I would get a msg along the lines of "unable to open a connection to X" and discord simply would just not open. Then I was like "maybe I should just try a DE" (was on sway). I installed plasma, went to open it from the tty, realized I didnt know the command to open it, went back to sway to search it up, thought "Lets see if the plasma installation installed something necessary for steam", successfully opened steam then discord (didnt bother going back to plasma). Now neither steam or discord can be interacted with while their on my second monitor. They work on my second monitor and I can somehow still move them onto my main monitor, but I literally cannot click a thing on them while they are on my second monitor (just in case it wasnt clear, other applications work just fine, its just discord and steam). How fix?

Just installed Pop_OS with Nvidia drivers. I noticed that when I enable the Steam overlay, the range of motion I can move with the mouse is limited in certain games.

For example, when I run Control, the mouse does not move the character at all, but does work in the menus. In Talos Principle Awakened, I have about 270 degrees in the X axis. Again, menus work fine.

I did run a few native Linux games like Half Life 2 and Quake 2- no mouse issues at all while Steam overlay is running.

Has anyone else seen this, or have ideas what the issue could be?

I'm playing Total War: Warhammer 3 on Fedora Linux via Steam with Proton-GE 26. I've also tried Proton Experimental, various hotfixes, and Proton 9.0-4, but the issue persists.

Hardware: AMD GPU (latest Mesa drivers via sudo dnf update).

Using the Empire faction with Lady Elspeth von Draken (Thrones of Decay DLC). Specific units like Amethyst College units (e.g., Amethyst Ironsides, wizards) and Elector Counts (unique lords/heroes) do not recruit properly.

When I click to recruit them:

• They briefly appear in the army recruitment queue/panel with a yellowish/orange icon (indicating queued/limited).
• No upkeep deducted, no slot used, recruitment doesn't start.
• As soon as I deselect the army, enter another menu, or end turn, they disappear completely.

Normal units recruit fine. This only affects these special Amethyst and Elector Count units. Game fully updated, DLC owned, no mods, verified files.

Hi everyone! I’m trying to play Arknights on Pop!_OS 24.04 LTS, but I haven't been able to get it working yet. Here is a breakdown of what I've tried so far:

• Genymotion: Created a Google Pixel 3 instance (Android 9.0, API 28) with 4GB RAM, 2/4 processors, and 256MB VM Heap. When I click "Run," the status stays on "Booting" for about 3 seconds and then immediately switches to "Off."
• GNOME Boxes: Tried both Bliss OS and Android-x86.
  • Bliss OS: Boots up, but "virtwifi" is missing and the Android-x86 specific settings are nowhere to be found in the settings app.
  • Android-x86: The Play Store crashes after being open for 5 seconds, or whenever I try to search for/click on an app.
• Android Studio: This was my first attempt. I don't recall the exact error, but the emulator simply failed to launch.
• Waydroid: Didn't work. It seemed to be a kernel-related issue, and since I didn't fully understand what I was doing, I ended up giving up on this method.

My Specs:

• CPU: Ryzen 5 5600G (Integrated Graphics, no dedicated GPU).
• RAM: 16 GB.
• Additional Info: SVM is enabled in UEFI.

Other attempts:

• BlissOS (Reddit guide BlissOS): I got stuck on steps 3 and 4 of the "Preparing to install Arknights" section.
• Waydroid (youtube waydroid and youtube waydroid updated): Followed a couple of guides, but it won't start. AI tools suggest it might be a kernel compatibility issue.

Any advice or workarounds would be greatly appreciated!

Having an issue i noticed where enabling frame gen breaks vrr with my monitor. Jumps from base hz to max, to inbetween. I believe vsync is not working correctly globally in KDE as typically vsync is needed to fix this. On w11 this was the fiz for the same problem. Any help? Cyberpunk in particular. Not NEEDED but really bugging me that this is broken seemingly. Playing on Steam via Wayland for HDR.

I tried proton cachyos, proton GE 10.26, steam proton hotfix and experimental. even different launcher like heroic, lutris and steam app. it just can't detect my hardware properly. stuck at 720p resolution and all graphics settings are locked. i tried many configurations on protondb page, still same. I doubt it is about the proton or graphics card detections. i tried many games and they're starting properly even on normal wine. what could be the issue?

Could using Windows 11 on an external SSD be a viable solution to the occasional game that works better on Windows? My concern is privacy, so I wouldn't want to dual boot.

If so, how could I prevent Windows from spying on the contents of other SSDs? That is, make it only access the contents of the SSD it's installed on.

I'm trying to play Stardew Valley with mods with a friend, but I keep running into the same error on Linux, whether on Cachyos or SteamOS. It’s related to Galaxy.api, where the game’s connection doesn’t work. Has anyone encountered this problem? Is there a solution?
