The lack of Game Pass has always been a weak spot of Linux but couldn't Proton translate UWP to Linux to get Game Pass working? Is there a reason Valve haven't gone this?

Hello everyone. I have a question regarding battle.net launcher on Fedora 42 using Steam, Lutris,...

I have Acer Swift X with AMD Ryzen 5825U and Ge Force RTX and before on Windows battle.net was running perfectly.

Now its pain in the ass. I want to play World of Warcraft, but I have 3 main problems:

1. My battle.net launcher is really weird. It´s small window and its glitching so its very hard to login and i dont know why - because i saw other Linux users having it perfectly normal. I was using mostly proton GE, proton experimental, or the newest one - every option is the same. Even when running it on Lutris.
2. Once I finally installed WoW Mists of Pandaria through the terrible process of trying to click on the glitching launcher - the game will launch but every time the settings of the game will reset and its in ugly windowed mode, and graphics change. I dont know why. Is there a way to stabilise it?
3. My mouse in-game is not working normally. In World of Warcraft you walk with WASD and you are using your right mouse to look around, but when i click and hold my right mouse to rotate the camera, the mouse cursor is invisible (which is right) but it moves and it should stay on one place and then appear again. I tried every console command in-game - like rawMouseEnable 1, 0 and others - but its still not working.

I really want to play casually, but this process is really annoying. Is anyone having similar difficulties? What should I do? Get back to Windows? :D

Im used Ubuntu years before and it was fine except gaming was hassel. Now i heard its much better and easyer. I usually play dota2 and some other simple games. Not spending 900$ for games... What version of Linux would u recommend and why?

So, I currently own a mid-range laptop that I use for gaming mostly. I have an older desktop that should be capable of recording and streaming.

For that, I need a capture card. My Razer Ripsaw HD doesn't seem to be compatible with linux, so I need something else. So here comes my question: which one should I get. I was up to getting a used Elgato HDX or S+, but then saw people recommending Ugreen ones.

I need the card to passthrough, i.e., I want to game on the main laptop and have the image just be mirrored and recorded on a second computer. Are ugreen cards, like this one a bad idea? I have Ugreen products that are pretty amazing. But at the same time, it seems "too cheap to be good".

Because there was always going to be some drama in deep space right? Stardeus is a spaceship colony sim that just expanded in a huge way.

Hey, I've dabbled in Linux before but for one reason or another I'm making a conscious effort to move away from Microsoft products.

I've noticed in Half-Life 2 that the internal render resolution seems really low for anything other than the player viewmodel (i.e. the pistol in my hand.)

Resolution set to 5120x1440 (Native) @ 240Hz, with 8xMSAA in-game

Same thing - notice that the aliasing doesn't exist around the weapon model

In addition, there seems to be some sort of strange reflection in the top left corner. Basically, a phantom duplicate of the entire render window, that changes as my own movements change. It's hard to illustrate but stands out most on darker backgrounds.

Really tricky to make out, but those white specs are trash on the ground in-game, mirrored against the dumpster

Fastfetch Output

I have left Steam to use whatever the default Proton version for Half-Life 2 is, and the issue is not replicated in Black Mesa (another Source engine game).

Any help is super appreciated,

Thanks!

Hey everyone, I'm playing Marvel Rivals on a Linux machine (gnome), I'm running into an issue where my game will crash either during a game or when i run a performance test. This is the Message that pops up, this is happening with a few games such as Dead by Daylight and Palworld too. Any recommendations?

A nice surprise, Brick Rigs is another game that recently added Native Linux support and it's quite a popular choice along with it being highly rated.

Necesse is a blend of quite a lot of genres that can end up a bit like a top-down Terraria, it's awesome and it's finally out properly.

I have a GTX 1050 and a Xeon E5 2640V 2.

I know the hardware is old, but my computer could still get 150 fps in Minecraft and 160 fps in CS2 on Windows.

I tried a lot of desktop versions this week and settled on Cachy OS. Now I get 400-500 fps in Minecraft and 20 fps in CS2. I won't even mention other Steam games to play. I downloaded drivers and installed all sorts of dependencies, and the graphics card is 100% and 20 fps...

What should I do?

It gives me an error when starting vinegar, it tells me that there are corrupt files or that I should install it again. I've done everything and nothing helps.

Hey guys so we all know that win 10 is dead now and I want to switch to Linux but I'm afraid of a lot of things like my PC is the family's PC not mine alone and win uses ntfs and I play pirate games so if someone can help me to make everything work easily and tell me what to do I will appreciate it and thank you (I think in using Linux mint first)

I’ve mainly used windows all of my life besides running some servers on Ubuntu but recently I had to sell my desktop gaming pc and now I’m using a mini pc. I want to switch to Linux to squeeze every bit of performance out of the mini pc but I’m not sure which distribution to use.

Star Trek: Voyager - Across the Unknown showed promise from the demo with some rough edges, but the new trailer has me excited about the journey.
