Hotkey for FPS limit when using gamescope --mangoapp

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 18. Dezember 2025 - 16:39

I'm using Gamescope extensively in combination with game performance + MangoHud. Now I've realized that using the --mangoapp flag for gamescope provides a more consistent HUD display for Mangohud based on my configuration than using Mangohud separately. It effectively displays the performance information on games that previously didn't.

What I want to know is how I can toggle the limit fps on MangoHud when using the --mangoapp on Gamescope.

What works?

toggle_hud_position=Shift_R+F11
toggle_hud=Shift_R+F12

What doesn't

toggle_fps_limit=F1

PS: I've also tried changing the FPS limit hotkey just in case it was some kind of overlapping with the game hotkeys, but it didn't work.

FPS drops in ubi games

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 18. Dezember 2025 - 15:17

Hello, I have a problem specifically with Ubisoft games, in watch dogs 2 I get around 60 fps at very high settings, but after I play for 2-3 mins fps drops to 20, and main problem is Assasins creed Oddysey, problem is when I play on high preset I get 70 stable fps but when I switch to very high I get 20 and it crashes, my guess it’s might be something with shader compilation, seeking for help

Low FPS on CachyOS

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 18. Dezember 2025 - 14:40

I have an RX 6600 and a Ryzen 5 5600X.

My problem is basically that if I leave Linux open for too long, like 3-4 hours, when I try to open a game, the FPS is very low. For example: I was studying, then I went to play after a few hours and this problem occurred.

I had this problem on Fedora, then I switched to CachyOS and the problem persists.

Edit: I'm using KDE Plasma without extensions on CachyOS.

One thing that solved it was logging out and then logging back in or just restarting the PC. For some reason, it returns to normal.

Please help me.

NonSteamLaunchers v4.2.81 - Adds new .desktop feature to the decky plugin version allowing you to run all your non steam games outside of steam. Plus more bugs fixes.

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 18. Dezember 2025 - 14:27

Over the course of these past couple weeks I was doing updates mainly focused on allowing people to be able to run their games outside of steam if they wanted to. This new update now applies the new features to the decky plugin version of NSL. When you install a game, the desktop mode will get a .desktop file of that game. Working with KDE and ready to play through steam, or Standalone without steam running. :)

Steam requires user namespaces to be enabled?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 18. Dezember 2025 - 14:24

Suddenly have this starting to show up, what is needed to be done? Weirdly re-opening steam is fine, but this comes up each time the OS is booted.

The odd part is here, I don't have any flatpaks installed. I do however have two steams, "Steam" and "Steam (Native)", assumably installed from the cachy OS gaming-meta package.

OS: CachyOS

Which open source projects need contribution from developers these days?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 18. Dezember 2025 - 13:25

For example if I look at wine, I don´t really see issue one can contribute on (on github at least). Can someone guide me on this?

Of course wine is an option but I am open to many other projects, essentially I want to help the community so that people are more encouraged to switch to linux for gaming as well. I have both knowledge of C/C++ but im also interested in kernel and drivers
