I play Roblox often using Sober and would appreciate being able to change the rendering distance to max, but have the graphics level remaining at 0. I saw that this was something you could do using Bloxstrap, but that does not work for Linux. I'm looking for any safe solution to this issue.

Been gaming on Linux for about 2 years now and the only thing that keeps me dual booting is DCS. Specifically, TRACKIR head tracking software

Are there any head tracking software that works with wine / proton? (Or Linux native / FOSS?) I've been actively testing and trying to config trackIR in wine but it's beyond broken.

Does anyone have a good solution for this?

I have been keeping up with the status of being able to disable vsync and enable screen tearing in Wayland, as I usually play rhythm games such as osu!lazer where low latency is important. Starting from Linux kernel version 6.15, it seems to have stopped working, forcing me to stick with 6.14 LTS.

I've tried searching all over google but all I got were threads of people wanting to get rid of tearing, which is not what I wanted.

Distro: Arch Linux
Kernel: 6.15.7-2-cachyos
DE: KDE Plasma 6.4.3

EDIT: I seem to have solved it. You need to add KWIN_DRM_NO_AMS=1 to you /etc/environment, as per this post. This was needed before KDE Plasma 6.2 was released but I guess at some point something changed in the Kernel where this envvar was needed again.

Hi everyone, I'm new to gaming on Linux and recently got most of my stuff working on Arch running KDE. I've spent the last 2 or so days trying to get trainers running and felt like I had hit a wall until I came across a comment by u/WarlordTeias saying the easiest way to get my fling trainers working with my games was to set PROTON_REMOTE_DEBUG_CMD="/path/to/your/trainer.exe" %command% as my launch option. It worked great for Nine Sols, but repeating the same steps for other games like Ghost of Tsushima and Clair Obscure: Expedition 33 did not launch anything in tandem with the game. Does anyone maybe have more tips? All suggestions are welcome, thank you.

So like, I was playing roblox and used a autoclicker (xclicker to be exact) and it ends up breaking chat to where I cannot type (Yes I turned it off) and it forces me to close and restart sober. Why? Is it roblox, is it sober, is it me? I dont really need a fix, just wondering if someone knows what the actual cause is?

Hey Linux gaming folks !

We’re the team behind NineLives, an survivors-like game currently in development.

From the very beginning, we’ve been working hard to support multiple PC platforms including macOS, Linux, and Steam Deck. While layers like Proton have made cross-platform support easier, our dev team has been focusing on native builds for better performance and stability.

We just released our first demo, and we’re excited to say that it includes a Linux version too!
So we wanted to drop by and share it here with the Linux gaming community.

Steam Demo Link : https://store.steampowered.com/app/3758770/Ember_and_Blade_Demo/

We’d love for you to give it a try—and of course, any feedback is super welcome!
And if you enjoy it, adding us to your wishlist would mean the world to us.

Thank you!

Hello. I have only built one pc in my life, which was when I graduated high school (about 9 years ago) and I ran that sucker basically into the ground. I recently bricked the motherboard on it by accidentally hitting the off switch on my power strip during a Windows update, and I took that as a sign from a higher power to get off the Windows 11 bus while I still could.

The natural first step was to buy a Sapphire Pulse AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT. I figured best GPU within my budget and then build around it. Im aware that with it being a newer GPU I basically will need to manually configure the drivers, Mesa 25 junk and have a specific kernel requirement (im considering Linux Mint Cinnamon, so LM22, or some distro that uses KDE Plasma).

I am semi-ambivalent towards the rest of the machine, and was more or less looking for general recommendations and behavioral experiences on working with this specific card on Linux. Only real desire is to play Dota 2 at like, high graphics lol. I dont care about AI workloads and I dont need major production programs outside of like, the suite covered by LibreOffice, Davinci Resolve and OBS.

I have my Rift S (Not a Meta headset but still kinda counts), so I was wondering if it's possible to use it in Linux. Will it work, or am I stuck to using only Windows for VR? I'll just install Linux Mint on a separate SSD anyway so I can dualboot.

Its my moms barely used laptop, only for radio, i wanted to optimize it for fun, I duel booted mint fxce and its way better than what it was on before, win 10, idk if i can expect more from it, testing games, i didnt even think it would run, but it did, example cs 1.6 in servers 20-40 fps depedns how many alive, minecraft with many optimzixations barely 25, well, at least youtube works way better on mint now, im using Midori browser, biggest problem perhaps not that its fps but dips and jumpy fps

so what else can i try to improve? i checked its running mesa 24 i think, im not to familiar with all these, theres wine and proton? could they improve it if i even can switch or are they just for diffrent games or smth?

I'd like to maximize the potential of my graphics card. Is there anything I should keep in mind when migrating to Linux?

I used to play games such Cuphead with my PS4 controller on my computer (steam on arch linux), and it worked as well. But now after formatting it simply doesn't works on games anymore (only in menu). I already configured on settings but I don't have response yet.

Edit: THANK YOU SO MUCH! I now feel much more confident about migrating to Linux. I truly know the path I will take to enter this amazing world.

I've been thinking lately about switching to Linux because it seems that we can now play video games more easily than ever before, and it looks like this is just the beginning. I used Mint a while ago and I fell in love with it! My PC didn't have the requirements to download any games (it didn't even have a graphics card lmao) so I didn't have much trouble using Linux. Now that I can play titles such as Elden Ring and God of War, I had to use Windows 11, but I still need Linux in my life.

I'm worried that migrating to Linux won't allow me to play video games I've bought or will buy in the future. I'm also learning how to use the Adobe Suite, and I believe these apps cannot be used on Linux. Is there a way I can fully migrate to Linux without dual-booting Linux and Windows?

I'm open to install any distro for the best experience, even if I should use open source alternatives.

Thank you all!

Hey everyone, I’m having some weird graphical issues in Wuchang on Linux and could use some troubleshooting help. Character skin and shadows appear heavily pixelated. The problem worsens when moving the character or turning the camera. Changing in-game GPU settings (Low/Med/High) doesn’t fix it.

I've posted screenshot of both extreme preset (1st picture) and low preset (2nd picture). I had a few friends stream to me and they do not have this issue at all with their amd cards, they are running on windows however. I have no idea what is going on and I have never had an issue remotely similar to this. I've tried every conceivable setting combination in game and nothing is getting ride of this weird pixelated look. FSR seems to make it worse than TSR as well.

Here’s my setup:

• GPU: AMD Vega 56
• OS: Fedora (latest kernel)
• Mesa Drivers: Up to date
• Proton Versions Tried:
  • Proton-GE 10-10
  • Latest UMU Proton

My first instillation I accidentally installed Bazzite across all 3 of my SSDs thinking it’d let me choose my primary boot drive and wipe the others. I am stuck in an infinite boot to my desktop. When I try to reinstall it will not let me select the drive to delete or install. Any help would be appreciated.
