Older games is running through the CPU instead of GPU while newer games works fine.

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 11. September 2025 - 13:20

I notice that older games that I install such as Bioshock Remastered, Arkham Asylum GOTY, Borderlands 2 and L4D2 only runs at 1 to 10 fps so after some digging I realised that they are not running through my GPU with the nvidia-smi command. Marvel Rivals and Warframe appear on the list as normal.

I have tried adding __NV_PRIME_RENDER_OFFLOAD=1 __GLX_VENDOR_LIBRARY_NAME=nvidia %command% in the launch option on steam which didn't work, furthermore I tried installing libnvidia-575 library but that borked my driver and forced me to use timeshift.

Question About Containers & Gaming

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 11. September 2025 - 11:19

Anyone got a recommendations or proven setups for setting up a zero-trust type gaming set up using either a lightweight VM, well set up container on a per application bases for example Steam & related games in an instance, discord in another one, RPCS3 in another without it really interacting with main system kernel or at least having heavy mitigations without breakage and proper privilege isolation with examples for configuration, hardening etc

Regarding hardware I have an AMD workstation with 16 cores, 32 threads, two AMD GPU's, and a separate PCI USB hub for passthrough, I've tried using proxmox & virtual manager but the configurations at least without months of reading, learning and breakage issues don't yield results I am happy with from a security perspective, it works but security seems to go out the window from all testing and I currently don't have the skills to make something of that, if someone has an existing set up that sounds similar and can provide examples or conf and package list I'd appreciate it, I don't mind reading documentation and spending a few weeks on it, mainly trying to avoid running around like a headless chook for months to give up using two installs to prevent untrusted software running on the main system.

What is the status of intel arc B series on linux right now?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 11. September 2025 - 10:39

Hey folks, just curious for anyone that has a B580 card; What is your experience like? Can you sound off on what distro you are using and how has gaming been like for you? Specifically if you have an updated kernel and Mesa stack. I'm also not sure about the status of Xe kernel driver currently.

thanks in advance.

Oculus Rift with Linux

Copias de Seguridad MH Wilds

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 11. September 2025 - 09:59

Ante todo buenas, soy nuevo por este reddit, quiero comentaros como Linux, concretamente Bazzite, me salvó el culo. En Windows me pasó una cosa, lo mismo que con MH Rise, y es que el juego no me detectaba el guardado, y he vuelto a caer en crear datos nuevos y mi personaje de 51h se me había borrado. Ahora bien, por suerte jugaba en Linux también y tenía mi save local ahí guardado, lo he sacado y he hecho backup. He cargado los datos en Windows y ya lo tengo de vuelta. Recomiendo mucho que hagáis esto si jugáis MH Wilds. La ruta por lo que he visto suele estar en: ~/.config/MonsterHunterWilds/save/

O sino en : ~/.local/share/Steam/userdata/TU_ID_DE_STEAM/2246340/remote/

El número puede ser 2246340 o 3065170, eso depende de cada usuario.

En caso de no ver la carpeta local debéis mostrar los archivos ocultos.

Yo recomiendo copiar la carpeta entera, no tiene mucho más, tiene 2 archivos bin. Con MH Rise tuve que empezar de 0 pero con Wilds no quiero. A un chaval de Xbox le pasó y perdió la partida, no entiendo cómo Capcom sigue con este error asqueroso del juego.

Moved to Linux this weekend, absolutely loving it! now Riot accepts me into their 2XKO beta I can't play. damm it Vanguard

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 11. September 2025 - 09:31

I was really looking forward to 2XKO, so I signed up for the Closed Beta a couple months ago, little did I know I'd move to Linux right before getting chosen. D: cmon Riot, allow Vanguard on Linux!!

I gotta say tho, Linux so much better than Windows its not even funny. No more forced ad bloatware, so much freedom to customise! Its great gaming on my distro (CachyOS) and weighing it in with the cons, I'm a happy Linux gamer now :D

Silksong Native Linux Port Controller Question

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 11. September 2025 - 08:01

So I have an 8BitDo Ultimate 2C Wireless controller (supports 2.4GHz and BT) that I was using in both modes on the native linux build on bazzite. However, for whatever reason the LT and RT (dash) buttons do not work or rarely work properly. There is also issues with scrolling the inventory as well for RB and LB but those work perfect outside of it. These issues disappeared only after connecting an xbox controller wired. But that one has an issue where if I disconnect or reconnect it, it also exhibits the same issue as my 8BitDo.

I've tried disabling steam input and such but to no effect for the linux build version. I've also made sure the controller was independent of the issue by checking on the 1st game's linux version and it works flawless there.

The only sure way I got it working was switching to proton but that's not really the native linux build. I am fine with that but I would like to know first if people have had this issue as well. Are there solutions to it? How likely is it that Team Cherry will resolve these inconsistencies for the linux version?

Running Minecraft Bedrock on Linux

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 11. September 2025 - 05:45

The latest minecraft bedrock preview has a change that could make it easier to run this game via stuff like proton. Theyre finally moving the game from UWP to GDK (Game development kit)

The first build is the latest minecraft preview for windows as of 11/9/2025

So, im wondering, will this make it easier to run the Windows version of it on linux? im not a pro at linux or anything, i just switched cuz microsoft is bad. but i do like the bedrock edition in addition to java

i think GDK will make it more win32 like, so with wine and proton, could it run? yes, it does need xbox services, but atleast the base game being GDK should help

link, if it helps

GDK Update on Windows Minecraft Preview now runs on the latest GDK (Game Development Kit) This update aligns the game with the standard distribution model on Windows platforms File paths have been updated and upon first install load of this version of Minecraft Preview, your existing Minecraft worlds and content will shift to: %APPDATA%\Minecraft Bedrock Preview Some players will still receive the UWP version of Minecraft Preview as this slowly rolls out for testing If you encounter issues, please report them at bugs.mojang.com.

by the way, if this is the wrong place to post this, tell me, im a noob

EDIT: Sorry, i found that this is a duplicate one of [this](https://www.reddit.com/r/linux\_gaming/comments/1ncw91d/minecraft\_bedrock\_win10\_is\_now\_a\_win32gdk\_app/). sorry i posted without reading. dont calcel me (i dont know how things go on here)

Computer Display Freezes When Launching Games

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 11. September 2025 - 05:17

I recently used some of the hardware in my PC to test against my wife's broken PC to find what was wrong. Now, when I try to launch games I get this black screen on my primary monitor and green on my secondary and all the fans on my case and GPU keep spinning at full speed. I then normally have to force shutdown with the power button and drain flea power to get it to boot normally. Does anyone know where I should start for debugging?
