Lossless Scaling questions

Reddit Linux_Gaming - vor 6 Minuten 34 Sekunden

Hello !
I've been using CachyOS for a while now and am thinking about using Lossless Scaling. Had an old GTX 1650 (4gb gddr5 variant) layin around and managed to fit it in my rig (had to unplug all front i/o). It is plugged into gen3 4x slot. Is it worthwhile setting it up with these specs or am I just better off with the 6600 XT by itself? Is there any extra performance gains I could achieve? (Mainly want to try LS for boosting totk emulation)
What are your experiences with LS on Linux?
Thanks for replying!

Bazzite and HDR?

I heard it doesn't work very well. I want to try to make the jump to Bazzite but poor HDR support will ruin it. I run a 7900xtx.

KDE Connect preventing Nintendo Switch Joycon/Pro controllers from reconnecting.

Reddit Linux_Gaming - vor 6 Stunden 49 Minuten

Already posted this on the r/SteamDeck subreddit. Posting here if anyone is having issues like me:
Still running into issues with Switch controllers after all these years, I decided to look around for a fix and found this blog post talking about how the controllers look for "Nintendo" in the hostname upon connect:
Your Joy-Cons are Vibrating Themselves to Death

After following this blog post, it seems initially that it helped, but if the joycons or pro controller still disconnected for whatever reason, they don't always easily reconnect, without having to re-pair them. Upon looking at the blog post, I noticed one of the commands opens up "bluetoothctl" in terminal, which gives a sort of "live view" of whats going on. It was then that I noticed this command constantly popping up in terminal:

hci0 type 1 discovering off
hci0 type 1 discovering on

I thought this was weird since in KDE bluetooth configuration, I have discovery or visibility off. It also seems to pop up every 10 seconds. While this pop up appears, I noticed that I couldnt easily connect my joycons or pro controller, even though they were paired, I would just get numerous pop ups saying that the controller was disconnected with reason 1 or 3. After some googling on the error, I found a page where someone pointed out that killing kdeconnectd makes hci0 type 1 discovering on/off go away. If i go into KDE settings and turn off the bluetooth and networking backends, suddenly the "hci0 type 1 discovering on/off" prompt goes away and stays at off, after which, I can turn off and reconnect my already paired joycon and nintendo switch as much as I want, with no errors. This seems to go on until I restart, which results in the prompt appearing again until I enable/disable the bluetooth and network backends in KDE connect.

This explains alot on why all these years, I had issues with my switch joycon/pro controllers not always connecting. Also, the reason that sometimes it connects succesfully if you try to brute force it, is I noticed that since the on/off toggle persists every 10 seconds, if you try to turn on the switch controllers just before it hits the 9th or 10 second mark, the switch controller is able to reconnect just as the discovery toggle says off, but before it can turn back on. So, if you are still having issues with your controllers, try messing with the kde connect backend and turn off bluetooth and networking in the settings (just remember they are off if you need kdeconnect). I will try to report this bug to the KDE Connect team if I can.

Steam on Bodhi Linux 7 Won't Start, Appears stuck/cycling

Reddit Linux_Gaming - vor 7 Stunden 29 Minuten

Core 2 Duo, GT 610, Bodhi Linux 7, not sure what other info required. Still new to Linux.

Tried to set it up pursuant to AI instructions. I know, first mistake. Bodhi is basically a stripped down Ubuntu 22.04 (right?) so I figured it wouldn't be that hard. Verified my kernel (5.15), got the proper (but old 390.157 IIRC) Nvidia drivers and what I was told by would be the likely missing 32bit dependencies.

Tried running Steam via CLI, and it just kept cycling. Rebooted. Tried via GUI. Nothing. Uninstalled via CLI, installed Steam Installer via Package manager. Rebooted. Could not find installer via GUI.

Gonna be real, this machine is ancient and I probably forgot some things I did.

Tried running Steam since it still appears in the GUI via CLI. Still cycling after about 30min.

It looks this:

hopefully you guys can make heads or tails from this. I hope this isnt one of those annoying tech support thread. If so, my bad.

Vale la pena usar Linux para mejorar rendimiento de juegos?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - vor 7 Stunden 57 Minuten

hay juegos que no puedo disfrutar del todo porque los componentes de mi sistema no son tan altos, 6gb de ram y eso, entonces queria saberlo para sacrificar parte de la comodidad de windows.

ademas con mi rollo de usar powerpoint excel y eso, me afectaria? no hay qlternativa? con los componentes de mi sistema no creo que pueda usar una maquina virtual para correr windows si ni me corre bien el power point aveces.

he jugado juegos como Dont starve together, oxygen not included, factorio, darkest dungeon 1, mewgenics, minecraft, forager, terraria calamity(super optimizado) y cosas asi, no me gustan esos juegos triple AAA para que mas o menos vean el rollo

What OS to use as a newbie?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - vor 7 Stunden 58 Minuten

I recently switched to Linux mint for my old laptop and made me realise how much ive enjoyed not having to deal with windows.

I have a gaming rig that I also use to stream that has a nvidia RTX 5080 in it (I know I know) and was wondering what OS i should switch to? from initial research I've seen bazzite and nobara as the main 2 for rtx cards

bazzite seems to be more just gaming focused whilst nobara seems to be more rounded, I also have a GO XLR so preferably a distro that could work with GOXLR on Linux

Thanks for any advice!

afterglow xbox controller doesn't work on ubuntu

Reddit Linux_Gaming - vor 8 Stunden 35 Minuten

trying to play lords of the fallen on ubuntu, the controller isn't recognized by the game. The drivers are installed, system recognizes it, steam recognizes it, the game doesn't. Switching steam input on and off doesn't do anything. The same controller, in the same game, on the same machine on windows works.

I'm using easyeffects to boost my mic's volume, but how do I make it sound less boomy?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - vor 9 Stunden 9 Minuten

I'm using a usb external soundcard to get rid of static sounds on the headphone, but it made my otherwise normal mic to be very quiet, so I used loudness filter and just add the input, output and volume. It works great but it made my voice sounds a bit boomy now. Any setting to make it less boomy? Right now all other filters I use are just the default easyeffects settings.

Running arch, plasma, anyways I ran the Linux install and navigated to the stardewmoddingapi.dll and added it to my steam library. When I tell it to run the modded one it looks like it runs startdew valley as intended, but then immediately closes. What am I messing up?
