Hi! I got this problem recently in games. Sometimes EAC, sometimes VAC false detect me for using "cheats". The only thing is running in the background is Signal messenger app, but i closed it, got the same result. I worry about getting banned. I use Debian stable with Wayland. Do i need to wait some updates, or just keep playing, ignore the messages?

I've been trying to get Baldur's Gate 3 working for a few weeks now and have followed a lot of posts that walk people through how to troubleshoot, but have so far been unlucky (for reference, I'm stuck at the loading screen sitting at 67%). But instead of trying to tackle things at a "How do I get (specific game) to work?", I'd rather get a better understanding of how to effectively troubleshoot these issues. If this was a regular windows box, I'd use something like Procmon to track each dll being loaded to try and understand where exactly the crash is happening, but when I'm running Proton, I don't see a good way to do that (especially in Flatpak).

I've attached a log for BG3, that has this error near the end:

.. 139066.032:0224:029c:err:virtual:virtual_setup_exception stack overflow 1856 bytes addr 0x6ffffffa7365 stack 0x6c8c08c0 (0x6c8c0000-0x6c8c1000-0x6c9c0000) 139066.033:0224:02e8:trace:seh:dispatch_exception code=406d1388 flags=0 addr=00006FFFFFC1CE87 ip=6fffffc1ce87 139066.033:0224:02e8:trace:seh:dispatch_exception info[0]=0000000000001000 139066.033:0224:02e8:trace:seh:dispatch_exception info[1]=00000000052af798 139066.033:0224:02e8:trace:seh:dispatch_exception info[2]=00000000000002e8 139066.033:0224:02e8:warn:threadname:dispatch_exception Thread renamed to "LoadPsoCache"

I'm attaching the full log in case that's needed for better understanding, but any help would be appreciated in understanding how to get a better understanding of what is happening when something crashes.

I'm using Garuda on an X11 session with the compositor turned off. I am also using Vesktop. I have Steam in game messages turned off. I keep getting stutters whenever I am messaged on either platform. Would using gamescope resolve this? is there some other way to prevent this from happening.

I installed Garuda Linux on my PC and I am having major issues with Steam games not launching. When I click on "Play", it switches to "Running" but then immediately goes back to saying "Play". I am running Steam from the AUR (the default one with Garuda) on the Linux 6.10.0-zen1-2-zen kernel. My system has a Ryzen 9 3900X CPU and a Radeon RX 5700 XT GPU.

If you guys need more system information I will provide

Alright, I'm sure I've induced an error but my attempts to search for a solution aren't coming up with anything helpful and I'm not experienced enough to know what else to look for.

Fresh install of KDE Neon a couple of days ago, installed steam and a couple of games at the time. Post-install, I thought it'd be a good idea to move my /home directory to a separate partition. Followed an online guide of how to do this after the install process. I know I messed up some ownership & permissions, but I thought I had fixed them all. My attempts to check my /home/ directory and random sampling of subfolders and file shows that my user and my user group have rwx permissions.

When I click my desktop icon for Steam or any Steam game, nothing appears to launch. So I tired running the command "steam" from the terminal to see if I could launch it from there, and I get the mkdir error shown in the image attached.

I've tried removing and reinstalling steam, steam-launcher & steam-installer via terminal & apt, but still get the same error on launch.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

OS: Arch Linux KDE Plasma

RAM :16Gb

SSD: 512Gb

GPU: Nvidia 3050 4g

so basically, I just got freezed when I game on X11, I can still use REISUB and listen to sound and that's it, I can not do anything else, even switch to TTL. But when I switched to Wayland it works wonderfully, gaming works and great, but there are some functionality that I really miss in X11 so I want to be able to work in X11 and game on it.

I tried to google online but I don't really see any result about this problem, so I decide to ask, to see if anyone has the same problem or at least know what's going on.

so any idea? thanks for reading btw

I download GOG through the Install Programs and it worked initially, until I tried launching it through Programs. I can't launch anything that's in the Prefix folder. Is there any way to fix this?

I have a 3070 ti (got it long before i wanted to use linux) and i'm having trouble running older valve games, specifically Counter Strike: Source and Condition Zero and Half Life. I have the latest nvidia drivers and newer games like CS2 and Tekken 8 work fine, the goldsrc games work well in the software renderer too, they just dont offer full resolutions that way. CSS is about 10 seconds per frame and CZ is maybe one second per frame and runs at a slow game speed. How can I fix this? Running the windows versions of these games with Proton wont even launch them for me.

I'm trying to understand what I'm doing wrong in setting up mod organizer with steam tinker launcher. Specifically the default behavior for graphics API. If anyone knows this is behavior I noticed while modding Fallout 4 and Fallout New Vegas.

I run steam tinker launcher and install mod organizer through the UI. I set up mod organizer. Keep in mind I'm using it with proton GE (latest). Each time the dxvk hud is not usable. If I launch the game normally using the same proton version it works.

So I think what is happening is its defaulting to wined3d when launching through the mod organizer and using dx > GL instead of dx > vk. I went and used winetricks to install dxvk to the prefix and the HUD and ENB suddenly works.

Am I missing something in my workflow? I've not seen this documented anywhere so far and seems like an unnecessary step to getting ENB or FPS counter working does anyone know what I was doing wrong?

Hey r/linux_gaming,

I've set up a system-wide Proton integration on Arch Linux without using launchers like Lutris or Heroic. Here's what I did in detail:

1. Installed Proton GE with yay -S proton-ge-custom-bin

2. Created a proton-launcher.sh script in my home directory: ```bash

   !/bin/bash

   PROTON_PATH="/usr/share/steam/compatibilitytools.d/proton-ge-custom" STEAM_COMPAT_DATA_PATH="$HOME/.local/share/proton-prefix" STEAM_COMPAT_CLIENT_INSTALL_PATH="$HOME/.steam/steam" export STEAM_COMPAT_DATA_PATH export STEAM_COMPAT_CLIENT_INSTALL_PATH "$PROTON_PATH/proton" run "$@" ```

3. Made a .desktop file to handle Windows executables: [Desktop Entry] Type=Application Name=Proton Launcher Exec=/home/$(whoami)/proton-launcher.sh %f Terminal=false MimeType=application/x-ms-dos-executable;application/x-msi;application/x-ms-shortcut;

4. Set it as the default handler for .exe, .msi, and .lnk files: bash xdg-mime default proton-launcher.desktop application/x-ms-dos-executable xdg-mime default proton-launcher.desktop application/x-msi xdg-mime default proton-launcher.desktop application/x-ms-shortcut

5. Created and initialized a Proton prefix: bash mkdir -p ~/.local/share/proton-prefix/pfx STEAM_COMPAT_DATA_PATH="$HOME/.local/share/proton-prefix" STEAM_COMPAT_CLIENT_INSTALL_PATH="$HOME/.steam/steam" /usr/share/steam/compatibilitytools.d/proton-ge-custom/proton run winecfg

Now I can run Windows apps and games by double-clicking or using the script from the command line. Proton GE updates automatically with system updates.

My questions: 1. What are the downsides to this approach? 2. Why would someone on Arch or Arch-based distros still prefer using launchers when you can integrate Proton like this? 3. Are there any improvements or potential issues you see with this setup?

I'd love to hear your thoughts on this setup. Thanks!

Hey everyone!

I'm really not sure what's going on. I'm trying to install this game from GOG via Lutris. The installation goes fine, no issues there. However, when I launch the game a "Direct3D Initialization Error" appears.

I've got plenty of games in my Lutris library, many of them from GOG and and I've never encountered this issue until now. I feel super lost and frustrated because I can't figure this out.

I've recently upgraded to Linux Mint 22 so I'm now on Ubuntu 24.04. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

• Base: Ubuntu 24.04.
• Kernel: 6.8.0-39-generic
• Lutris: Flatpak version 0.5.17
• Wine: winehq-devel version wine-9.13
• Lutris runner: wine-ge-8-26-x86_64 (default)
• Mesa: Mesa 24.1.4 - kisak-mesa PPA
• DXVK: version 2.4

When I try to launch the "exe" file with Wine a .log file appears with this output:

I am on nixos, and am trying to play poe via steam install, but i get an error as soon as the game launches (actual window is a black screen): vk::PhysicalDevice::createDeviceUnique:ErrorFeatureNotPresent. I found this thread discussing the issue: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3445835, but i was unable to figure out how to apply this to my setup as i'm using steam.

Edit: So I found the config file, and read a bit into the thread, but I'm unsure how to apply the solution which was mentioned here: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3445835/page/5

Greetings,

Recently I'm trying to migrate from Windows 10 to Linux Mint, and I'm having trouble getting the cursor to display properly in games. My monitor is 3440x1440, and on Windows, I have the display scaled up 150%. When I launch games, the in-game cursor is larger than the desktop cursor and is easy to see. On Linux, I have the display set to 3440x1440 at 150% scale, but when I launch the same game, the cursor is so small I can barely see it. The desktop cursor size and in-game resolution do not affect the cursor size in the game. Is there any way to tell proton what scale I want the cursor to be?

Hello.

This has to be the silliest bios I've ever seen. I can't figure out how to change the RAID settings and I'm not sure what to do. I have a thumb drive with Linux Mint on it and it will boot but it won't detect my NVME drives on the laptop.

For the moment I left windows installed and there was an extra drive slot so I stuck my 2TB in there, it won't boot for some reason, it came out of another machine though so prolly some hardware changes it doesn't like, or BIOS stuff, or other. I'm thinking about making this a dual boot machine. My /home directory is on its own partition so I can simply reinstall OS over the other part and make it work and not lose my data, done it before a couple times.

Old lappy peetered out so bare minimum I have a few files on there that aren't backed up yet, but like I said, I have partitioned to keep stuff safe in the event of minor disasters.

My main problem right now is, Mint doesn't see the nVME drives when I boot from the thumb drive. Windows sees the other one when I go to the included partition software.

All the tutorials I'm looking at seem to have a very different looking BIOS than mine. Just purchased the lappy this morning.

Is it still ideal to disable the GSP firmware now that 555 is out of beta? If so, what about any changes with 560?

Thanks <3
