My PC has a RX 9070 XT and runs Cachyos and I am trying to use FSR 4 in MGS Delta (if possible). MGS Delta has a FSR option in its settings but it doesn’t specify which version. With proton-cachyos and proton-ge I’ve tried PROTON_FSR4_UPGRADE=1 and it doesn’t seem to work (I don’t see the FSR 4 indicator when I use the appropriate proton environment variable). I’ve tried the configuration above with Marvel Rivals and it worked but it did not work with MGS Delta. So is it not possible to use FSR 4 upgrade with MGS Delta or is there something else I can do?

First: English is not my first language, so pardon any grammar mistakes.

Hello guys. I'm giving up. I can't find a way to complete my Mini PC setup. Anyone who knows how to solve EmuDeck/Steam things?

To avoid some obvious answers, I have an Lenovo Mini PC. It uses an Intel Core i5-8500T, and I've put a GT1030 in it AND IT IS LITERALLY THE ONLY GPU I'VE FOUND IN MY -ENTIRE- COUNTRY that would fit in it. IT'S -IMPOSSIBLE- TO CHANGE IT. And my problem is NOT ABOUT IT.

Anyway, my first try with building that emulation PC was ChimeraOS. After a lot of work, I was able to get everything ALMOST working, but since the performance was not good on PS2 games, I had to make the GPU upgrade.

Unfortunately, yes, had to change the OS. Read about distros and choose Mint, very good looking. After installing Mint, installed some Steam games, everything ok. Went to install EmuDeck and everything went downhill. For some reason, the Steam Guide Button NEVER work in emulated games. The only thing aside emulation I want to do in that thing is recording games, and I can't open the Steam "Game Bar" thing anymore.

Tried installing Bazzite, Zorin, Nobara and ALL of them makes EmuDeck go into the same problem: when I open emulated games, the "Guide" button dies. Changed to Retrodeck and the problem got worse, because with Retrodeck even after changing controllers scheme, the emulators don't even recognize the gamepad anymore.

I'm using a Gamesir Nova Lite, with USB Dongle, and Steam recognizes it as Generic Xbox Controller or something like that. That Controller also have a way to make it play like a Nintendo Switch or Android controller, but when I change the controller mode, the emulators die completely.

What the hell I'm missing?

I wondered if there are any projects like JoyXoff on Linux. Before making the full jump into Linux gaming, I was using one of my gaming PCs as an HTPC specifically for games, I was using JoyXoff to manage controller mappings to KB/M. I know something like that exists indeed, but it could be cool to combine it with another project that provides a cool function from JoyXoff, and that's the virtual keyboard. Do you know any program/s to supply that need?

I was trying to play the binding of issac and my controller wasnt working and did nothing so iItried a input test and it said my controller worked fine but for some reason I was getting no input from the right stick as well as both of the back bumpers. I have already tried other bluetooth controllers they all have the same problem.

Has anybody figured out how to get Runelite working on SteamDeck via the official Steam game's launch options? I've been trying for a while now and there seems to be a lot of mixed responses online and I still haven't been able to get it working. I don't know much about Linux so this process is taking much longer then expected. I saw some ways to do it with standalone Runelite but I'm not able to log in unless I have a Launcher nowadays (that's why I'm using the Bolt Launcher). I was able to easily get this working on my Windows 11 PC with the launch options and using the Jagex Launcher but it doesn't seem to be that easy on Linux devices. If anybody knows anything about this or was able to get this to work for them please let me know🙏

Hi! been trying to play counter strike but keep getting this really consistant packet loss, it happens every 1-2 minutes and lasts from 10 seconds - 30 seconds

it looks alot like garbage collection, but that does not really make sense to me for network stuff

Nothing in the router seems to be odd, it reports no blocked packets, and no packet loss is reported for my device, I am on wifi, but I dont get this issue with out it

I am not actually sure if it is only counterstrike, I sometimes get disconnected from other games, and it may be this same thing

Journalctl proivdes no insight

Hi, I recently upgraded my motherboard to Asrock B650 Steel Legend. The audio on it is "Realtek ALC4082 7.1 CH HD Audio Codec."

Unfortunately, my mic stopped working from any input from this device on both Bazzite and Kubuntu. It works fine in Windows. (triple booting...)

I've spent a lot of time googling and trying to troubleshoot, but I've just about given up. So instead, I thought I would try to buy a cheap USB-C to 3.5mm headphone adaptor to plug my headset into.

I bought a UGreen brand adaptor off Amazon, but it doesn't work either! Audio output works fine, but the mic input isn't recognised. Again, works fine in Windows and on my android phone.

So I would like to ask if anyone has a recommendation for a USB-C to 3.5mm adaptor that they know for sure will work fine with Bazzite / Linux, for both headphones and mic.

(or if someone has a magical solution for my motherboard audio...)

Thanks!

So I ran pop os for two years and gaming was great on Linux. I moved on to nobara and had a crash that forced me to reinstall windows 11. I'm now thinking of coming back to Linux. I was thinking of giving nobara another chance but also wanted to hear from the community if there are any other distros I should consider?

Hardware I'm using I9 13700k MSI MAG B760M MORTAR 9060xt ASRock taichi

Some of my previous issues with Linux I think my big issue was support for all the lights I had I bought into the Lian li fans and cables with lights. Also had issues with support of some of my gamepads. I'm getting rid of all the led stuff so won't be an issue anymore.

Can someone just eli5 how to use inputplumber? I can't find many good resources online for how to use it and the example files are a bit overwhelming for someone not too familiar with the whole thing. All I want to do is combine 2 controller halves into one controller. (2 playstation navigation controllers)

I REQUIRE CONTEXT

I made the switch to linux when the steam deck was announced. I knew it would be a linux machine and ive tried to switch before( last attempt being when the steam machine was first announced) but it was always still too much work even if I could get it to work so why wouldn't a new piece of valve hard ware be a good place to re-examine the state of linux. Im not exactly a power user but I knew enough to know how to get stuff done but also not be willing to do the work to do so.

Anyway, I dont recall many, if any, games doing shader compilation before that point and I also THINK I recall that elder ring actually ran better under Proton than windows because there were optimization issues that were kinda bypassed by the fact that Proton pre caches shaders. And since I feel like a lot of games do so on first boot/update.

Am I crazy for making this connection and it was already happening i just never noticed?

Hi all. I have a pretty good PC and have been wanting to switch to Linux. Sorry to be one of those oldsters who play a 20 year old game.

I got WoW installed with a bit of difficulty on Arch/KDE: the Lutris installer installed the battle.net launcher but when I ran it, there was no visible content in the little app - just a half frozen graphic

For a second attempt I downloaded the installer directly from here:

wget https://downloader.battle.net/download/getInstallerForGame?os=win\&gameProgram=BATTLENET_APP -O BattleNetSetup.exe

and ran it under Steam as a non-Steam app, forcing it to use Proton Experimental as the runner. This second go worked much better: Launcher seemed fine and I could install and run the game; I thought I was home and hosed, with a smooth 120fps

Except: every player moving around did so in a jerky erratic way, as if their network updates were jerky and fragmented. Apparently my characters looked the same to other people, too, when moving. I’ve never had this issue when dual booting into Windows 11, so it’s the same PC, networking etc for both environments

Can any of you recommend a good way to install and tune WoW (Classic, Anniversary). I’d really appreciate any advice, thank you

EDIT: I just got flamed by u/S48GS for not including details. This was my first post to this community, sorry, didn't think to include that, it's perfectly valid information to request, but I don't know exactly what you want to see.

NVIDIA-SMI 580.105.08 Driver Version: 580.105.08 CUDA Version: 13.0 RTX4090 Kernel is 6.17.9-arch1-1 Hardware is AMD 7950x on ASUS b650e-f, 64GB of 6000MHz DDR5 memory

Happy to provide more or verbose output if that helps

Hello! I've recently been trying to use MangoHUD on all my Minecraft installations on Prismlauncher, but when I go to enable it in the "Performance" tab, it's grayed out, and unable to be ticked...

I'm using MangoHUD via GOverlay, and am on Linux Mint. If there is any extra info needed, please let me know! Thanks in advance! :D

Hi! I'm new to gaming but I've been fumbling around with linux for a while. I'm looking to create a sort of arcade-cabinet type object for my mother and younger brother to play Stardew Valley on. Could someone tell me if this would be something resembling a reasonable system?

Intel NUC i5 8th gen, running bazzite, with steam in big picture mode

hdmi -> vga adapter to an old desktop CRT

all mounted in a custom wooden enclosure

please lemme know if i should be more specific

Hi there :)

So, the thing is: I want to gift myself with what will be my first vr experience, but I'm on a pretty tight budget. Also, I would like to remain on linux (I could dual-boot, but that wouldn't be ideal).

I've been investigating about vr on linux and, for my budget (150€) on the 2nd hand market I've found both the og Vive and the Quest 2.

I have some things to have in mind when picking one over the other: my wifi is not the best, arround 300mbps download, sometimes 400, and my GPU is also not the best, so my pc would probably use the better performance on the Vive.

My biggest concern is about people talking about the bad resolution on the Vive. Is it really that bad? I probably wouldn't bother if it was just a bit blurry - I'm very near-sighted.

What do you think? Which one should I pick? Is there any other headset to have in consideration?

Thanks in advance!

Edit: If it was 100% necessary, I could also increase a bit the budget, but that isn't ideal neither. I also forgot to mentinon my specs:

CPU: r5 5500

GPU: rx6600

RAM: DDR4 16 3200Mhz

Hogwarts Legacy lag s a lot on Linux whilemon windows with the same hardware plays great at ultra settings with fsr3. How can I fix it so it performs as well on Linux? I 'm saving for a new GPU but this is a problem only on Linux. The same thing happened with Star Wars Battlefront but I just needed to get AMD's official driver but that's already installed.

It took me a few years to get around to do it since the feature released, because (excuse the poor terminology) I originally had installed my OS without UEFI enabled in BIOS, and I couldn't just toggle BAR on, I first needed to switch UEFI on (which needed OS reinstall) so I could then enable Resizable BAR (or Smart access memory/SAM as AMD calls it). My computer-versed mates had no idea about this feature so maybe some will benefit from a general reminder, at least for me it's on average a net benefit.
