For a reason I can't install Proton 9 on my openSUSE Tumbleweed PC. It says it's only available for Linux/Steam OS, but I am on Linux:

Install button is great out

If I select Proton 9 for any game and launch it, it says Downloading (0%) but stays there, doesn't download anything and doesn't show in the download section on Steam.

All other Proton version work fine. No issues.

(I use the stable Steam client, openSUSE repo, not Flatpak)

Hey I'm looking for a distro/DE where games won't have issues with compositing. Previously on old pc I use Ubuntu XFCE and I had to have a script where if steam is running disable compositing so games would run properly. Is there a distro where compositing doesn't need to be disabled and fullscreen disable option actually works (xfce it doesn't). Preferably morel lightweight DE as system specs will be weak.

Hi everyone,

As a steam deck user, i'd love to use my T300 RS to play sirmacing games from my steam deck (I don't have a PC so my only option to play AMS2 or AC is my steam deck docked to my TV)

Does someone already succeed in making the wheel work ?

Thanks for your help !

Another popular survivor-like roguelite has launched, with Nordic Ashes: Survivors of Ragnarok leaving Early Access to the big 1.0.

Hello! When I try to run Predecessor on Steam with proton I get the following error:

I tried with Proton experimental, 9 and 8, I'm getting this error with any of them (6 and bellow doesn't even launch the game). This error started happening today, does anybody know how to fix this?

Using the MESA drivers 24.0.6-2

The battle continues! The fallout is ongoing from the legal battle between Nintendo and yuzu that saw the yuzu team fold.

I've been using Linux for almost 7 years now, and I've seen many things evolve. Proton, Wayland, VRR, NVK, Explicit Sync (well, still have to see that). But there's one pretty major issue I have with Linux and I can't understand how it's not fixed yet is scaling on my 2560x1600 screen with a bottom 3840x1100 screen.

I'm on Garuda with KDE Plasma and I have two options. Apps apply scaling themselves or the system scales the apps. Of course, I have to use the zoom option to have proper scaling in the OS. Here's the thing, though.

If apps apply scaling themselves, Steam and all games launch small and Mangohud reports a resolution of 3840 x 2400 which I don't even know where it finds or how to fix.

If the system applies the scaling on Wayland, and this is pretty important imo cause the previous case may be a weirdity of my system. the resolution of games gets to something like 1701x942 or something which is much less than my screen.

The best solution I've found is setting the DPI to 144 in the Wineprefix of the game I wanna play and let the app scale itself. Another solution is using Wine Wayland but the DPI still need to be set to 144 otherwise the image goes out fo the screen.

The easiest option of course is to use Gamescope and set game and output resolutions but I'm on Nvidia and Gamescope is a little hit or miss, especially with HDR enabled.

So, what is going on? Wayland with zoom cannot be fixed? This is such a basic and weird issue.

I am having a problem with steam that I can't find a way to fix, I was wondering if there was an easy way to uninstall steam without uninstalling the downloaded games?

The Stellaris 17 from TUXEDO is a new refreshed (their sixth version) high-powered desktop-replacement notebook, with a high price and a tease of more models in this series to come.

This above is the error given. In terms of the log, it is right here: https://pastebin.com/h3UTbhbm
In terms of Neofetch, this is my Neofetch:

! I DO NOT USE ARCH, I USE DEBIAN 12.5 - but the Arch logo looks cool !

Asked in any other subreddits, got no answer. I really hope I get aid! Everything else works with FIFA23 being run via Wine-GE, but this pains me how I cannot use mods.

Perimeter originally released back in 2004, and it's set to make a return from developer K-D Lab with the PERIMETER: Legate Edition.

Originally due to launch on May 23rd, the cinematic narrative adventure Until Then from Polychroma Games has been delayed.

Jumping over from actual arcade machines, we have Armed and Gelatinous: Couch Edition now available with Native Linux support on Steam.

I thought I'd give it a shot to see of I can get some more juice from my GPU, but I cannot install it. Did you manage to do that? I tried both Lutris and Bottles, but something's going wrong, but the error doesn't say what

Although the Steam page for HELLDIVERS 2 has clearly stated since release that a PlayStation Network account is required, you actually haven't had to link them. That will change really soon.

Note: I was not able to find any info on this, I tried, that’s why I decided to to ask here for help

Recently I have been trying to play my old games (Worms, Sims, Black & White, etc..) on my Steam Deck.

I created an ISO of the various CD's via the dd command, but I have noticed Crossover doesn't support ISO. I needed to mount the ISO to a location.

This worked to install the game but fails copy protection. If I connect a USB DVD drive it detects the disc and works but this isn't particularly helpful.

Does anyone know what I should be setting or doing so the game sees the ISO or ISO mount as the disc?

A lot of the games I want to play simply don't have a steam version to buy
