Why WuWa pre-caching consumes 44GB? Since I moved to Linux, I haven't played too many games, so I want to know if this is normal (I don't think so).

Also, pre-caching really makes a big difference with stutters, or can I keep it disabled without major losses?

Hello, I am running Fedora 44 and use an xbox 360 wireless controller with the usb reciever. Steam can see and play with my controller just fine, but for some reason cloudplay does not see my controller at all!

I am using Waterfox as my browser if that helps!

After a year long stall on the proper implementation of Wayland in Chromium Embedded Framework (Used by many apps such as Steam and Spotify), a different developer has expressed their intention on moving ahead with it.

" I'd like to help get Wayland support landed. Joel, are you still able to drive this, or would you be okay with me picking up the remaining review comments and pushing new patchsets? "

Hopefully Steam can leave X11/Xwayland behind in the near future.

Have been thinking about this for a little while, I know the hypervisor is pretty deep in the OS/security terms but I'm not super knowledgeable on that stuff.

Hello everyone. I’m trying to set up my tv to get the best possible image quality from it but I’m having some issues with color banding (I believe). Here’s an a photo I took from Crimson Desert (look at the sky). This is a screenshot taken directly from the game (no issues). This is another photo I took with the result of the troubleshooting process I went through with the tv. Let me know if you want me to share more details in case you need to see more. I’m running the latest version of the the tv and also the latest version of SteamOS. In terms of hardware, I’m using a AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D with a AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT. Are there any specific settings I should change in SteamOS (already in HDR mode) or make sure that are properly set up in the tv? I would really, really, really appreciate it if someone could help me out. Thank you very much in advance!

OK, I apologize in advance if this question was covered somewhere else in a pinned post or something. I used to be a big Linux user, and actually ran it as my primary operating system from 2006 until like 2012… I even managed to run Adobe creative suite on my Linux computer back before the days of subscription software and all of that BS. I even ran some MMORPG’s.

In the interim, I’ve had all of my computers issued to me by my employer. They gave me a MacBook to use for the bulk of my job and a very nice gaming laptop to use for coaching Esports.

I have another employer now, and they don’t issue me anything. OK, they issued me a crappy Windows laptop with not great specs that I can’t add anything to anyway.

So, I want to get myself a computer this summer. My wife has the Mac thing covered, and I would like something I can game on. Windows has been doing some really shady shit, and I have no desire to get a Windows workstation. Apparently gaming is very possible nowadays on Linux. I have my eyes set on Nobara. The question I have is hardware. This video https://youtu.be/noaYSy-vKOo?si=udX-tHpopYUL6rFU has me thinking that if I just buy a Windows 11 gaming PC or laptop and put Nobara on it, that I’m going to end up being locked out of a hard drive that Windows 11 turned into a paperweight on me.

I looked at System76 and Tuxedo, and holy crap! Talk about premium prices. There were some more realistic PC’s available at Juno and Slimbook. Still, I can get very nearly or the the same specs from PCs on Sale on Amazon but pre-loaded with Windows 11 for hundreds of dollars less. This video https://youtu.be/BqtN0vsSnLQ?si=sFAw0df52zmuoeqV would have me believe that I can get hardware with a great discount if it doesn’t have Windows on it, but when I go to HP’s website, anything but the budget crap hardware laptops aren’t available without Windows, and Acer, Dell, and Lenovo’s Linux / FreeDOS options are all like $800 - $1,000 more than comparable windows models.

So, apart from building my own, which I don’t really want to do (and I would prefer a laptop for various reasons), where do I get decent hardware that’s not sold at a premium? …OR is it not a big deal if Windows is on it?

I didn't know there were native penguin mmorpgs out there, but this one does seem to run natively. The Hammers End is the name of it. I've been playing a few days now. It's nice to see the Penguin come first!

just a heads up there seems to be a bug on ntfs3 on kernel 7.0 that crashes the module when making very large writes (discovered it while downloading the forza pre-load).

can't really report it upstream as i have too many out-of-tree modules installed though

Hi everyone, i recently tried playing Stellar Blade on my pc, but after playing for a while, im getting stutters due to my vram getting full.

I play on 1080p resolution with mostly high settings + medium environment textures (which sucks compared to high). In the settings it shows it will use ~6gb vram but after loading into game vram usage jumps to ~7.4 gb.

I want to know if there is any solution for this ? or i have to bear with it ?

my specs:
i5 13400f
4060 ti
32gb ram

using nvidia open dkms version: 595.71.05
kernel: 7.0.3-zen

also im using umu launcher and playing with these options:

VKD3D_CONFIG=no_upload_hvv PROTON_DLSS_UPGRADE=1 PROTON_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 PROTON_ENABLE_HDR=1 ENABLE_HDR_WSI=1 mangohud umu-run --config stellar-blade.toml

proton version: GE-Proton10-28

Hey all. Thought I’d post here since I thought this was pretty cool. I’ve been playing the leaked copy of Subnautica 2 on CachyOS and wondered if I could get FSR 4 working, so I downloaded the latest version of OptiScaler and it worked! It looks surprisingly good for a game not natively supporting it, and it runs pretty decently as well. For those curious, the game is pretty rough around the edges with its optimisation, but it’s not as bad as I initially expected given Subnautica 2’s rocky development. It also suffers with the usual UE5 issues, but, again, it’s really not that bad. This post will probably get taken down soon enough, but I’m still gonna try posting it anyway.

1. System Preparation
   First, we need to enable 32-bit support and install the necessary drivers.
   

# Enable 32-bit architecture support
sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386

# Install 32-bit Intel Graphics drivers (Required for OpenGL)
sudo apt update
sudo apt install libgl1-mesa-dri:i386 libgl1-mesa-glx:i386 libglapi-mesa:i386

# Install WineHQ Stable
sudo apt install --install-recommends winehq-stable
Installing the Game:
1. Download a Non-Steam version of CS 1.6.
2. Navigate to your Downloads folder and run the installer via Wine:

cd ~/Downloads
WINEPREFIX="/wine setup.exe"

1. Fixing the "Invisible Menu" (Fonts)
   The main "pain" with Wine is the lack of standard Windows fonts, which results in empty or invisible menu items in CS 1.6.
   
2. Install MS Fonts: sudo apt install ttf-mscorefonts-installer
   
3. Copy fonts to the Wine prefix: cp /usr/share/fonts/truetype/msttcorefonts/*.ttf ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/Fonts/
   

4. Registry Patch (Replace Tahoma with Arial): Create a file named fix.reg, paste the following code, and apply it with the command wine regedit fix.reg:
   Фрагмент кода
   [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wine\Fonts\Replacements]
   "Tahoma"="Arial"
   "MS Sans Serif"="Arial"
   "Times New Roman"="Times New Roman"

5. Fixing Smoke Lag (Optimization)
   The integrated Intel HD 3000 graphics suffer heavily from Overdraw (re-rendering transparent smoke layers). Without optimization, FPS drops to 30 and the laptop overheats.
   Essential Console Commands (~):
   • fps_max 60 — Critical! Reduces CPU heat by removing unnecessary load.
   • fastsprites 2 — Changes smoke rendering to simplified particles.
   • r_dynamic 0 — Disables dynamic lighting (muzzle flashes).
   • gl_spriteblend 0 — Simplifies sprite rendering, adding a stable 10-15 FPS.

6. Final Launch Command
   To get everything working immediately, use this set of parameters. It forces 16-bit color (easier on video memory), fixes the resolution, and caps the FPS at 60 to prevent thermal throttling.
