I'm using the Steam Flatpak. Filesystem is btrfs, same filesystem as the OS. I always let the vulkan shader compilation finish.

I've tried dozens of combinations even Proton GE but no matter what I do the game window never opens. Tried X11 and Wayland. Tried Wine's virtual desktop.

The EA apps works and it shows a process "starwarsbattlef" but the game window is not visible.

Any tips?

I've been seeing posts for the adaption of lossless scaling for the last few weeks but didn't really understand the hype in the enthusiastic posts I saw. Two days ago I went back to Cyberpunk 2077 since it got the FSR4 and FSR Frame Gen 3.1 update, to see how ray-tracing would run on my 7900xtx.

Well, frame gen seems to be completely broken for this game. It actually had a huge negative stuttery impact, with no frames generated. So, I decided I'd finally go check the status of lossless scaling (https://github.com/PancakeTAS/lsfg-vk).

Yesterday the project released a new pre-release version, and it now includes easier-to-install binaries, and a GUI to set up variables that can be called by steam to enable profiles.

Once enabled... it's honestly a game-changer. Went from 50-60fps to around 130-140fps with unnoticeable input lag (talking like 1.5ms on my pc, using 3x lossless settings), with everything maxed out and RT on ultra. Amazing clarity and buttery smooth on my ultrawide 3440x1440 monitor.

I've worked on computers for a long time (20+ years), as a builder, C++/C# programmer, DBA... and it's one of those rare times I feel like a piece of software is magic. Feel like I just downloaded some RAM for real.

I'm know others have felt this way about "fake frames" before me - but as a long-time AMD and Linux user, it's awesome to experience what this piece of software does. Props to the original creator(s), and the team porting this to Linux. It's a game changer and I encourage folks to buy the software and try this out on your more demanding games.

I'm a noob looking to switch over to Linux.

I've heard AMD's Adrenaline software is simply not available on Linux, which I find very troublesome, because I've come to like it a lot and have been wanting to finally move over from windows to either Ubuntu or Mint.

Is that really the case? There is a download for Ubuntu at least on AMD's page, does it not work as it does on Windows?

I worry because, besides overclocking and fan control, how about features like frame-gen, driver-level upscaling or down scaling, would I lose access to those on Linux?

Example: i used to play cod IW a lot but i play at high fps. The game is capped at 91 fps and on pc gaming wiki there's a fix that unlocks the fps on the game. https://community.pcgamingwiki.com/files/file/2368-fps-unlocker-for-call-of-duty-infinite-warfare/

The thing is, the file is an executable. And on windows that isn't a problem but i dont know how to launch it on linux and make it work. Im on nobara 42 (basically fedora). There also other games i play, that it's fixes are executables... Any tips?

Plasma 6.4.3

Hdr looks correctly in mpv.

Games tested: God of War, Death Stranding, Cyberpunk. All of them washed out.

These are my launch options: PROTON_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 PROTON_ENABLE_HDR=1 ENABLE_HDR_WSI=1

Is this a bug? Something am I missing?

Any help would be appreciated. Ask me any more info that you need.

Hi,

I’m using Fedora KDE 42 with the following hardware:

GPU: RX 6700 XT

CPU: Ryzen 5 5600X

RAM: 32 GB DDR4

When gaming ( helldivers 2, like a dragon infinite, etc.), after a while my GPU is always at 99% usage, but only draws about 70-80W max of power according to btop and core ctrl. The RX 6700 XT should normally draw between 180W and 230W at full load.

As a result, in-game performance is terrible — about 3x lower than it should be.

The problème occur until I restart sddm or the computer but that very annoying to do.

Hi, im a complete noob to arch and trying to bypass EAC to play Rust I ran two commands I found on these subreddit (i know, shouldn't be running commands I don't understand so lightly, my bad). The issue is, it sent my pc into kernel panic cause it didn't correctly re-install glibc (as far as I understood). Any idea how could I fix it? I'll add the commands on the comments

Here's the English translation of your message, aiming for clarity and a natural flow:

Hello,

When I exit Gaming Mode, Steam remains active. Is this normal? I then have a Steam icon in my taskbar, and if I close it, my mouse no longer works with the right stick, but it continues to function with the trackpad. Additionally, the keyboard no longer appears. If I relaunch Steam (the Steam icon, not "Return to Gaming Mode"), it works again. I don't understand why this is happening...

I want to specify that I'm using a Steam Deck OLED, it's up to date, and a factory reset didn't resolve the issue. Thank you for your help!

System Information:

• KDE Plasma Version: 6.2.5
• KDE Frameworks: 6.9.0
• Qt Version: 6.8.1
• Kernel Version: 6.11.11-valve19-1-neptune-611-g88b36D49a5e2 (64 bit)
• Graphics Platform: X11

For the desktop-mode logs, I don't know where to find them yet, but I'm working on it.

I couldn't find the logs, but when I right-click, the application tells me the path doesn't exist... even though it does. When I go into the Desktop (Dolphin), I see several folders including "home," "esp," "var-A," "root-fs," and "efi" on the left under "Devices." And by following the path that supposedly doesn't exist, I find it. I can even run the Steam application, so the path must exist. Maybe my question is strange, and it's normal that when I quit Steam via the icon in the taskbar, I can no longer use my keyboard and my left stick loses its mouse function, but it just seemed odd to me...

I recently upgraded my PC and switched the operating system to Linux. It's been a bit of a struggle, but little by little I'm starting to get the hang of how to use it.

Now I want to download some games, but I understand it's different from installing games on Windows. I've read a few things on FedGamer, but I’d love to hear how do you all play games here? Any tips or go to tools you recommend?

As the title says, I'm considering switching back to Linux for gaming from Windows.

I last was doing so over a decade ago, but ended up going to windows as some games took ages to get working and it was annoying me, but I've now decided to give it a go again.

Any suggestions for which distro? I mostly used ubuntu-based distros (I went through a period of changing them often, apparently installing a new OS was a hobby) but I'm wondering if there's any specific good ones currently

I don't tend to play any really new games, though I do sometimes like to load up VR (oculus rift 2) and I have a GTX 1080ti gpu (in case that makes a difference.

I'm used to simply using the NVIDIA control panel on Windows to put frame limits on a game-by-game basis where sometimes high frame rates end up with wonky physics.

For reference I'm on a fresh installation of Fedora (KDE), I'm only using Steam and Heroic and I've got the latest GE-Proton installed.

Is anyone else encountering steam opening random dialogs all by itself?

first it was opening random dialogs about controller firmware? I don't have any controllers.

Now its opening "System Report". All of this is completely on its own without me touching anything.

I'm currently running Debian trixie but I've encountered it on multiple distros, both steam beta and non beta version do it.

Anyone know of a good app that does what the title says and makes it more convenient to gather this information than manually taking notes?

I use ubuntu, and i installed wuwa on steam, and ge-proton 10-8, as if it was done and i'm gonna play it normally, when i tried to open it ofc on steam, it says it's running but no window is showed, i waited and repeated and repeated. So i tried to type a command STEAMDECK=1 %command%, they said it works, but it didn't change a thing, but now i don't know how or why, when i try to open the game, it runs then stops immediately. HEELLPPPP!!

Do you know of mods that work without problems in gmod on Linux? To be more specific, I use Ubuntu... And is there any way to know if it's compatible?
