missing plugin for gstreamer and quicktime

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 30. März 2025 - 14:58

I'm trying to run the game Endling but it won't start complaining about the lack of a plugin. I installed quicktime76 in wine and also gst-plugins-bad-libs and gst-plugins-base-libs after googling. Nothing helped

weird Graphics/artifacts while running linux and windows both

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 30. März 2025 - 14:34

Weird Artifacts on LG UltraGear 27" 1440p Monitor (4070 Ti, CachyOS/Windows) - GPU, Monitor, or Driver Issue?

Hey folks, I'm experiencing some really strange visual artifacts on my LG UltraGear 27" 1440p monitor, and I'm trying to pinpoint the source of the problem. Here's a breakdown of my setup and the issue: * Monitor: LG UltraGear 27" 1440p * GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti * Connection: DisplayPort (DP) * OS: Dual boot - CachyOS (Linux) and Windows * Issue: * I'm seeing noticeable visual artifacts on the screen. These appear as [Describe the artifacts as precisely as possible: flickering lines, static, color distortions, etc.]. * The artifacts are present in CachyOS (Linux) in SDR but not in windows . * Enabling HDR in either OS significantly worsens the artifacts. * The artifacts are present in SDR in linux. * Observations: * The issue started suddenly today, after working fine for a while. * I have been using this setup for a while without problems. Questions: * Has anyone experienced similar artifacts with this monitor or GPU? * Could the fact that HDR exacerbates the issue provide any clues? * Are there any specific troubleshooting steps I should take in Linux to isolate the problem (e.g., trying different display drivers, checking Xorg/Wayland settings, etc.)? * Could the DisplayPort cable itself be the issue? Any help or insights would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance

Steep FPS drops when playing games with wine

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 30. März 2025 - 12:25

When I run a game with wine, it works fine in the beginning but after 10 minutes, it starts lagging so horribly I can't play it. The stuttering happens for 30 seconds to a minute. This keeps happening every 10 to 20 minutes. This has been happening since a few months but only recently it became this bad

[Help] Sonic Unleashed Recompiled crashes when selecting game files (Arch Linux)

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 30. März 2025 - 11:49

Hey everyone,

I'm trying to run Sonic Unleashed Recompiled on Arch Linux, but when I try to select the game files, the recompiler crashes.

System Info:

Distro: Arch Linux

Desktop: KDE Plasma

Kernel: Zen

Error log (from terminal):

"➜ ~ flatpak run io.github.hedge_dev.unleashedrecomp

[*] OS does not support registry.

[*] SDL video driver: "x11"

Gtk-Message: 12:21:14.322: Failed to load module "canberra-gtk-module"

(UnleashedRecomp:2): Gdk-WARNING **: 12:21:18.666: The program 'UnleashedRecomp' received an X Window System error.

This probably reflects a bug in the program.

The error was 'BadAccess (attempt to access private resource denied)'.

(Details: serial 182 error_code 10 request_code 130 (MIT-SHM) minor_code 1)

(Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;

that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.

To debug your program, run it with the GDK_SYNCHRONIZE environment

variable to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful

backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)

What I tried so far:

Installed missing libraries: lib32-libcanberra, lib32-gtk2, lib32-gtk3

flatpak run --filesystem=host io.github.hedge_dev.unleashedrecomp (found this solution via ChatGPT, but it didn't help)

I used Google Translate to write this post, so sorry for any mistakes.

Has anyone encountered this issue before? Any ideas on how to fix it? Thanks in advance!

How to tell what driver a gamepad is using?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 30. März 2025 - 11:43

Hi, I have a game pad that works on my Nobara machine but not on my Arch machine. Is there a way to tell what driver is being using on Nobara so I can install the same driver on my Arch machine?

Nvidia Shader Cache

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 30. März 2025 - 10:38

Cant seem to find Nvidia shader cache so i can set it to unlimited? im using ubuntu 24.04. The thing is i used to get fps drops after playing for a while, and the LD PRELOAD fixed that in STEAM, but the game was runing a bit smoother before that command, the only issue was the fps drops after a while, so i think the shader cache was the issue, how can i set it to unlimited since i cant find it ? thank you

Has anyone gotten a Logitech G13 gamepad working?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 30. März 2025 - 08:36

I still have a Logitech G13 with some saved profiles on it and haven't been able to get it working properly in Linux. There are a couple drivers in the AUR but I've tried 2 or 3 with no success. Curious if anyone else has gotten this to work and how they went about it.

TIA

Is it possible that valve will ever release a linux-compatible EAC, or are there actual complications with having two different versions of EAC?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 30. März 2025 - 08:32

Not like I have a bunch of time to be playing games right now anyway, but Rust is easily my favorite pc game ever. I just now read that you're basically limited to playing on EAC disabled servers. What's honestly ironic is the EAC seems to not even work, so this restriction is super lame. Probabaly play with less cheaters on EAC disabled, but I obviously don't want to be limited to only a handful of servers either...

But if I launch the ubisoft launcher seperately then it's working fine. But got stuck everytime whenever I try to launch it from Epic Games coz that's where I have bought the game . I already tried uninstalling and reinstalling , clearing the cache files but still nothing.. Someone please help me.

Marvel Rivals not working

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 30. März 2025 - 08:02

Rivals is seemingly out of nowhere not working with Proton. It’s telling me that my OS doesn’t support DirectX 12, which makes sense, but it was running fine on linux mint up until today. I’ve tried everything, including older versions of Proton and every trick I’ve come across so far.

Wine/Bottles not using local DLLs

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 30. März 2025 - 05:23

As far as I can tell, this is a *wine* issue, but it's also affects *bottles* as well, where the the exe after being ran doesn't for some reason know to look locally where the exe is for extra DLLs. It's only recently started on my system. Was wondering if anyone else was seeing this and if there are any possible fixes.

I have some older posts about this, but nothing recent.

This is stuck and my fps is low. Help! (Zorin)

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 30. März 2025 - 05:19

So, I think my drivers are broken? I don't know what this is and why I can't change the graphics drivers but I need this fixed.

Minecraft is the only game I can get working but my fps is 12 to 50 and this is with ONLY performance mods. Windows gets 150-350 fps with the same set of mods. (is the issue obvious?)

I've got nothing on this except that this could be a driver issue but so many versions don't work that I Don't know what's going on!

Specs if needed: R5 3600, 16gb ddr4, RTX 3060, Zorin OS

Black window when opening certain games

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 30. März 2025 - 04:17

I've been trying to diagnose and fix this problem for almost a week now. It only happens across three games, which makes it weird. It happens on:

Half-Life 2

Guns N' Boxes

No More Room In Hell

I'm running EndeavourOS with KDE as the DE and Wayland as the WM. I'm launching the games through Steam.

Kernel: Linux 6.12.18

Mesa 25.1.0

I am using custom drivers because I have weird hardware. It's not the drivers that are causing it because I have a friend who has the same hardware as me and can run the games just fine.

The fixes I've tried:

Updated the system using yay

Changing the scaling settings

Using Proton GE

Disabling FPS counter

Disabled Steam overlay

Enabling Steam beta

Tried Proton GE

Tried Proton 9-7

Tried native Linux ports

Checked integrity of the files

Reinstalled the game

Restarted the system

Ran both vkcube and glxgears to check Vulkan and OpenGL are working

Switched to X11

Reinstalled Mesa

I've seen this issue before in this subreddit, but with the menus on Steam, not the games.

There's no error, no crash, and it doesn't freeze it's just a blank black window. There's just nothing.

Bought a controller unusable

I've bought a bigbig won gale hall thinking it will be well supported on my gaming distro (bazzite) it come with a 2,4 dongle , can connect on Bluetooth and can be wired. And guess what, none of those options work. Tried on bazzite and chimera os same. Very weird since I connected on my laptop with archlinux and kde ans on the controller option of kde tue controller is recognized. Is there a solution to use it on bazzite ?

Inzoi works on the Steam Deck, AMD laptop, but not desktop

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 30. März 2025 - 01:19

So the game launches both on the Deck and a 7530U laptop (Ubuntu 24.10). The desktop is way more powerful than them but the game just refuses to launch, telling me that "The game may not run due to the device's limited graphics card performance" after closing that nothing ever happens.

I tested an RX6600, and RTX 4070. Same issue on both. Tried to add all the code I could find on ProtonDB to launch options, different proton versions (including GE), launching through bottles and Lutris. Nothing.

I'm on driver 570, also tried different drivers but I don't think the problem was ever related to it, as AMD had the same issue. Tried Wayland and X, nothing.
