I tried the following controllers:

Steam Controller Xbox 360 Wireless Controller 8Bitdo Ultimate 2c

Always 1 controller at a time gets recognized, making it impossible to play coop. Playing with keyboard is also impossible as it appears to control the same character as the controller. I tried disabling Steam Input, but nothing changes. Anyone got a solution?

i have been using linux for the past 3 years and i got a controller from my brother so we can play on steam split screen, but i don't know anything about controllers and i think it is broken or something, when try to select something in a radial menu (for example bg3)
it can not go to 1 or 2 'o clock just the 8general directions and it is hard to do anything with it
am i the wrong for now knowing something (i have never used controllers before) or is the controller broken ?
edit 1: i have a trust gxt controller

Hey Linux Gamers,

Finally, closing one of the oldest requests on GitHub, Goverlay is finally available at Flathub. It was only possible due to the amazing work of @twig6843 .

I downloaded Zenless Zone Zero and it closed after launching for the first time, so I thought I didn't had any space for the shaders to unpack cuz I had 7ish gb left after downloading so I went ahead and made some space (40 gb). Then it ran fine.

now fast forward to today, I ran it and it launched and closed again immediately, so I went to launcher settings and cleared game cache and then it launched fine.
Now fast forward to present time, I launched it again, same problem but even after clearing the cache, I can't launch it now. It opens and closes immediately.
First I tried with proton-GE and then with system(10.19) runner.

I've wanting to switch since the forced us W11. I installed it and I hate it. Is there any viable Linux distribution for gaming? Preferably actively updated. Thank you.

When I stream on discord (I use Vesktop) often these artifacts come up. I even see them myself and they come out when I'm on fullscreen. I have no problems while recording with OBS. I have a GTX 1660 Super, two monitors, I use Fedora on Gnome with Wayland. Any help is welcome :)

Hi there!

I often use Steam Input to remap some buttons — for example, to make the Start button quicksave on a single press, quickload on a double press, and so on.

However, when I enable Steam Input, the in‑game button prompts in Cyberpunk 2077 switch to Xbox ones. Is it possible to use Steam Input while keeping PlayStation button prompts?

Hello everyone,

With my latest upgrade of my configuration (that you can find below), I've become quite fed up by Windows overall (currently 11) as I feel like it's dragging my specs now, and with the whole future features planned, I feel like it's only about to get worse.

https://preview.redd.it/nqrxg7gj6x9g1.png?width=533&format=png&auto=webp&s=55ce264f71e0460a1ce1e9d8fe16038393c1c7c2

In terms of usage, nowadays I only play solo games from Steam/GoG, sometimes Emulators and using Firefox to browse stuff and watch Youtube.

I've always been tempted to try some Linux solution (sorry if I keep confusing Linux Distribution, I know there are Ubuntu, Fedora etc...) in the past, but I'm quite a newbie to say the least. But more importantly, I was always afraid of having all drivers compatible, and also all games. I'm a Steam Deck owner for 2 years now, and I've been impressed by Proton sustainability and so it reassured me, even if I still have a few doubts about modded games such as Fallouts.

Also I was thinking for starter to not yet completely switch from Windows to Linux, but to have it on a second Disk to first test, and if I get along with it, I would eventually do the full switch.

I did read when browsing the subreddit that Ultramarine Linux was a really good candidate for a first newbie experience, but may be incompatible with some specific features like ethernet (may have missunderstood, but as I don't have any wifi...).

What would be the best Linux OS for a newbie, focused on gaming ?

I thank you in advance for your answers!

Both native and proton crash instantly when you launch with shadows turned on. This is happening to more people according to protondb. I wonder if devs know about this or if someone came up with a fix.

Using Nvidia with Bazzite.

Hey guys. Been working on Linux (Debian/Ubuntu) for a few years as a computer science student and I'm finally committing to switching to Linux for my gaming desktop, which leads me to the following questions:

Is Pop_OS working out-the-box? I have an AMD CPU and a 4070Ti.

On System76's website, they state that every program working on Ubuntu will work on Pop_OS!. Is it enough to say that it is an Ubuntu-based distro?

I have a 8BitDo Ultimate controller which works thanks to a dongle, is it supposed to work out-the-box on Linux too?

Thanks to anyone who gives me a piece of advice.

Hi everyone. I'm trying to understand what's going on because this looks really abnormal.

Laptop:

Lenovo IdeaPad Gaming 3

Ryzen 5 (integrated AMD iGPU)

NVIDIA RTX 3050 / 3050 Ti

8 GB RAM (yes, I know it's not ideal, but this was

NEVER an issue before)

On Linux Mint, games run perfectly fine when they are the only thing running. But the moment I open a browser (Brave / Firefox), everything breaks(graphical session freezes)

This happens consistently when a game + browser are running at the same time.

Important details:

This did NOT happen before on other distros (Pop! _OS, Ubuntu) Same laptop, same hardware

What I already tried: NVIDIA drivers 580 and 535 Verified NVIDIA is actually used (nvidia - smi, OpenGL renderer = NVIDIA, not iGPU)

I would be very grateful for any help or suggestions. Thanks.
