Hello r/linux_gaming!

I have recently converted from Windows 10 to Linux (Fedora 43 for those who care) because of Windows 10 EOL, and was saddened to learn that I could not play GTA Online with my friends due to BattleEye. I was further saddened when I learned that enabling Linux support is simple, in theory; most things I have read say that all a developer has to do if they want to enable Linux support for BattleEye is ask BattleEye to turn it on.

Because of this, I have created a Change.org petition. I know that even if this were to get thousands of signatures it's unlikely that anything will change, but I'm optimistic nonetheless. Please, if you have a minute, sign my petition, and if you have another, share it with your friends who game on Linux. My hope is that if the petition succeeds and Rockstar allows Linux users back into GTA Online that this may cause a snowball effect with other companies who currently do not allow Linux gamers into their online games, so the more the merrier!

Thank you for reading, and for those who go on to sign, thanks for signing.

I’ve been having a lot of ping issues on the unofficial Roblox Linux distribution called “Sober.” My ping literally went from 45 to 7,000 in less than 10 minutes of gameplay. I’ve tried everything to fix it, but nothing works. It’s not my internet, because I play other games on my PC using the same network and I’ve never had similar problems. Does anyone have any suggestions to fix this issue?

Crossposting to hopefully get a few more eyes on this.

This used to be a problem I ran into on Windows all of twice, but now that I'm learning Linux (Garuda, to be specific), I'm not really sure where to start troubleshooting.

I tried clearing the download cache and changing download regions, but the only game I have is a fresh install and none of the mods I subscribed to in the workshop have even attempted to download.

Any ideas?

Edit: drive is encrypted via whatever the default settings were on the Garuda installer

I had some trouble yesterday evening with my Kubuntu (25.10). Cause as I wanted to play a little Dead Cells after work, I started my Elite 2 controller and … it wasn’t set a connection. I opened Bluetooth Settings and yes … no adapter detecting. After 2 hours troubleshoot on a Wednesday evening I reinstalled bluez, set Kubuntu on an older version and tried some workarounds with a friend with new AND older firmware for Mediatek. At the end, after many reboots, I was tired and my friend told me a funny story about his Kubuntu and his Intel Module not working anymore. His solution was to power off and unplug his pc for 10 seconds. We laughed and I said, „Yes, that should I try at least“, with my thought my module just died. I power off and unplug it, safely press the power button without electricity and rebooted it and then, like a miracle, everything was just fine … What we are learning from this story? At the end I don’t know what really helped but now it working. If you have some issues, maybe turn off and even unplug it :D.

Hello Reddit.

This is my first ever Reddit post as I like to figure things out myself. However this time even ChatGPT and Steam Support couldn't help me.

I Love ARK Survival Evolved (not asa) and I wanted to install it on my fresh Arch install. The problem is that Steam seems to think that ASE is already installed even though the title is grayed out. You'll notice in my lovely artwork provided that there is no indicator on storage required before I click install and when I do it says "0 B". When the game "finishes installing" (it only downloads about 1.3gb) I can't play it and there are no files in the games common folder.

I really have no idea whats happening but there are a couple things I'll note:

1. I'll include my steam support ticket (which had no helpful answer) for information on what I did and tried, please note I made up some BS so they'd help me, my system is actually the latest version of arch (they only support select ubuntu versions, I know I'm kinda a scumbag but even support for anything would have helped)
2. Every other game works fine, I normally play games through proton so mod loaders work. This is just an ARK SE problem for whatever reason
3. before I installed the game, I used SteamCMD to install the older preaquatica server files, somehow steam realised this and added it under my storage settings so I deleted those references too, the files are still on my PC. The reason I did this is I have old server files from an hosting server me and my friends used to play on, I'd like to continue this "Save" in singleplayer through a local dedicated server.
4. I have been using Linux for a couple years now, I used it for school on my laptop for 2 years (Debian) then when I got sick of Windows I put Arch on my main PC for about a year, for whatever reason a bunch of stuff stopped working so I made a fresh install. I'm only saying this so you guys know I've used it for a while but I'm not a pro.

Any and all suggestions are much appreciated, Below is my ticket with the info;

I’m having a persistent issue trying to install ARK: Survival Evolved using the “publicbeta-preaquatica” branch, or any branch for that matter. I’ve run into a situation where Steam believes the game is already installed even though all files have been completely removed.
Before listing the troubleshooting steps I’ve tried, I want to clarify something about the system report you may see:
I have been testing this issue on **two machines** — my main machine (which is Arch Linux), and a secondary test machine that is running **Ubuntu 22.04 LTS**, which is where I actually intend to run ARK.
I’m submitting the ticket from my main machine because that’s where I have Steam logged in right now, so the system report may show Arch. The issue I’m reporting is occurring on the Ubuntu 22.04 machine.
Here is everything I’ve tried so far on the Ubuntu 22.04 machine:
1. Selected the “publicbeta-preaquatica” branch, but the beta option immediately unselects itself and no download starts.

2. Fully uninstalled ARK through Steam.

3. Deleted all ARK-related folders from the Steam \common` directory.

4. Attempted reinstall — Steam instantly shows “Game Ready to Play” and only downloads ~1.3 GB instead of the full ~125 GB.

5. Steam does not show any “Space Required” field for ARK at any point. (other than "0 B" next to the title when "installing")

6. Removed manually downloaded pre-Aquatica server files stored outside the Steam library.

7. Cleared the Steam download cache.

8. Deleted any appmanifest files related to ARK (both client 346110 and server 376030).

9. Deleted the ARK-related userdata folders under `userdata/<steamid>` (346110 and 376030). After this didn't work, deleted all user data.

10. Restarted Steam multiple times.

11. Steam still reports 0 B installed, instantly finishes “installing,” and the beta branch continues to unselect itself.

12. changed download regions

At this point, the game cannot be installed normally and appears stuck in some kind of phantom-installed state.
Could you please advise on how to completely reset Steam’s internal state for this app so I can download the correct client version from the beta branch?
Thank you for your time.

Edit 1: apparently my images didn't upload so I'm adding them now

Edit 2: I broke the formatting so I fixed that

I’ve seen so much about lutris heroic and bottles I saw someone talk about how heroic just did everything and worked immediately. I have been using lutris but I’ve dealt with loads of problems wineprefix issues it didn’t have anything related to dxvk drd_extras etc etc but I don’t know which one I should use anymore is there anything better than lutris heroic

I’m also having an issue with lutris where it’s just not letting me download certain games because of renderer issues and no solution is working

I've made a modded version of PvZ with custom music but attempting to play it on Wine (10.18 if that's important) comes up empty handed with the following errors blaming "bass.dll" and it cannot find it (IT'S LITERALLY IN THE FOLDER).

I also have a seperate version of said mod but due to content reasons I CANNOT show you it with bass.dll in it and it works flawlessly just without custom music. Notice how in the 4th screenshot showing the Windows version I made, the "bass.dll" file has no icon and hence DOESN'T WORK? On the 5th screenshot "bass.dll" has an icon and that is the only reason one works and one DOESN'T.

I'm running EndeavourOS with all my drivers updated btw. HELP NEEDED

(and before anyone asks. No, running under Proton (ANY VERSION) or Lutris doesn't work either)

Hey Ive been trying out linux for the past few days and i was testing some games. Some games like last of us run pretty well. Not as good as windows but only about 10fps worse which is fine. But for some reason RE4 is running awfully. Im only getting about 40fps and stutters. I'm using a 9070xt. Ive tried a few different proton versions and when i first opened the game it actually ran at a smooth framerate for about 10 seconds, but now it runs terribly no matter what. Most people online say it runs fine for them. Does anyone know what might be going wrong? Thanks

Fedora 43, Proton Experimental (have tried hotfix and several other versions as well). The game seems to launch once on a clean installation and then doesn't launch anymore. Currently reinstalling but I will try to add a short video of what it does later.

I can't successfully run Rage 2 right now. It does run until it shows title screen and couple of seconds of gameplay and crash immediately.

My system is Ubunut 25.10, 9950X3D/9070XT if that matters. Mostly recent software and hardware combination.

By looking ProtonDB, There are many success report until 4 years ago, but I don't find a lot of people successfully run in recent 3 years.

I baseless speculation is that this game is using Vulkan and released in 2019 has something to do with it.

Just a guess but partly because both on the game's early vulkan usage(relies on old Vulkan standard and may contain violation of standard usage) and recent software stack and hardware changes that break compatibility.

Some protondb comments suggest config changes and restricting FPS to 50 does the trick. I'm not in a mood of running a game less than 100 FPS right now.

Protondb comment also said recent Nvidia driver changes fixed some of the long standing problems.

Do you have any luck on running Rage 2 on recent software stack and AMD GPU?
