I'm using an install of nobara, I want to try use the playstation navigation controllers. Afaik, they should just be seen like PS3 controllers, and they do register as navi controllers and show up in menus but no input goes through. Any ideas?

TLDR: System stutters every 10s, but only when I disable one of my monitors in systems settings (its connected via HDMI)

In an attempt to get rid of frustrations related to Sunshine streaming the wrong display or Moonlight opening Steam Big Picture on the wrong monitor, I have a keyboard shortcut that disables my 2 extra monitors, leaving only my primary gaming monitor up and running. I utilize "kscreen-doctor" to this in bazzite, such that if you go into system settings, the monitor is still detected, but is marked as disabled.

I started noticing some stuttering in my system where every 10s my games, windows, mouse cursor would all be affected. During troubleshooting I found out this only happened if I disabled my one monitor connected to the HDMI port on my Nvidia RTX card, the other extra monitor is connected via display port to DVI.

The real impact now is that my workaround to make my Sunshine/Moonlight experience better doesnt really work, and I would have to physically disconnect the monitor from my desktop.

Has anyone experienced something like this and could give me any recommendations on a remedy?

I'm new to Linux (pardon if misspelling anything) and so far love it, everything works except for Battlefront 2 2017 I've tried all the guides, I've checked protonDB I even tried installing Luntris and the ProtonGE variants nothing seems to work

If someone knows a solution please help me out

So I've got a new NVME drive arriving tomorrow and even though my w11 experience hasn't been terrible I'm really not enthused on staying with windows so it feels like a good excuse to jump ship.

Current hardware is

CPU: R9 5900X GPU: RX 9070XT RAM: 32GB 3200mt Storage: 2tb nvme 1tb Sata SSD Controller: PS5 Dualsense/Xbox one with usb adapter. Other: Elgato HD60 Pro pci-e

My gaming pc is 99% of the time used as a glorified console where I just launch steam and play mostly stuff that isn't on my switch 2. Pretty much all single player stuff thats playable with a controller, I do have a logitech kb/trackpad also.

I'm looking at Bazzite for this which appears to be the most straightforward distro for my needs. A couple of questions though.

Are my controllers supported out of the box? The dualsense connects via bluetooth in windows? Would that be an issue, I'm assuming the Xbox controller should also be fine with the usb adapter.

Also will the capture card work? I don't use this that often but I do sometimes capture footage from my switch2 with obs.

With the GPU I know it should be supported but I'm running an undervolt in windows, is this software built into the driver in linux or do you need additional? Also I'm just running audio from the HDMI to the TV, this should just work right?

Finally the main game I like to play is ETS2, which has a naitive port but sucks because it's still only on opengl. Vulkan/DX12 have been in the works for ages but I'm assuming it's going to be better to just use the proton version instead. I usually run a lot of mods also so it would be nice to know if anybody else is doing the same.

Hello, so I am coming to you with a question.

What settings do you use to play this game, not only in Nobara, but linux in general, to squeeze all the performance from your system?

I really like mine how it is working with default, I have Steam with

PROTON_USE_DXVK=1 %command%

on Proton Experimental.

00:00 Dirt 3 - The game refused to go into fullscreen. 02:43 Dirt Rally 1 - The native version is broken. 04:31 Dirt4 - The native version is working, although the launcher won't let me start the game, and I had to enable Steam for the controller to work, and the resolution option disappeared.

Greetings!

I am currently trying to use Gamescope with my Steam games. The problem is that they are not launching when I put Gamescope commands into the launch options. No error message, no black screen, just nothing. Gamescope itself works perfectly fine outside of Steam, including non-Steam games.

I already reinstalled Steam and Gamescope, made system updates, tried starting steam directly with Gamescope (Steam works as expected, but the games still won't launch) and switched between the Flatpak packages and the one you install through DNF (don't know the exact name since I am a Linux newbie, sorry).

I am using Fedora 43 Workstation with the Cinnamon desktop environment. The console output shows me starting Steam and trying to launch a game.

I would appreciate any help. Thanks!

Windows 11 is my hard limit. Its the enemy. Since they are getting rid of local accounts now and I dispise constant surveillance, I need a good distro I can jump to. I have very limited experience with Linux as ive been a budget windows gamer my entire life and will still be building vintage Windows systems. I need a safe and comfortable Linux distro to jump ship to that will give me comparable performance in game. Please enlighten me. The more information, the better.

most games in my steam library work perfectly well. however, some games, specifically Sekiro, I had experience random crashes, sometimes crashes that reboot my whole computer (it show a green screen right before my computer reboot, pretty important detail). How come games like Elden ring work perfectly well, zero crashes, while Sekiro can randomly crash or even reboot my whole computer?

my specs are:

AMD Ryzen 7 5700X

Radeon RX 7800 XT

Title. I'm currently on a HP Omen 15 (absolute DOGSHIT, would not recommend to anyone. The touchpad has been dead for 2.5/3 years ive had it. ) running arch and it works pretty good for "mobile" gaming. However, it's definitely starting to show its age with newer titles and I'm looking to replace it.

Unfortunately I'm NOT versed in the world of laptops, and am looking for recommendations. The only thing i've kinda looked into so far is a framework laptop with the bolt-on Nvidia GPU.

I 100% intend to run arch on whatever I get, if that makes any difference.

When i try to run tf2 natively on linux it shows me that i have 300 fps but its looking like 30 fps and also it has very bad antyaliasing where textures are fucked up. When i run it with proton then the game looks good and i actually see my 300 fps but i can't connect to any server because i have " dangerous connection". Can someone help me to get tf2 running good on linux? I use linux mint

I recently switched to Linux, and when I tried to launch the game through Steam, I got an error: "Failed to initialize graphics. Make sure you have DirectX 11 installed, have up to date drivers for your graphics card and have not disabled 3D acceleration in display settings. InitializeEngineGraphics failed". How can I fix it?

As Windows 11 23H2 approaches end of life I see myself forced to finally move on to Linux.

I've been a linux user for the past 7-8 years already, as I'm a software developer, but never used it in my gaming PC.

I have a Nvidia RTX 3080 and as far as I know, this can be a pain in the ass

So I ask for advice on which linux distros to take a look. I have heard good things about CachyOS, Nobara and Bazzite but I'm just starting looking at it.

Any advice?
