Got myself a mini PC with a Ryzen 7840HS APU (Beelink SER7) and to get 4k 120hz on Linux obviously I need to use displayport, especially if I want HDR/VRR. My TV (LG C1) doesn’t have a DP port so I got a USB-C to HDMI 2.1 cable from UGREEN, certified for VRR/ALLM. I can get 4k 120bz working with HDR but the adaptive sync option is missing from my Plasma settings and very obviously doesn’t work. VRR/G-Sync/AMD FreeSync is enabled on the TV.

And yes I ensured the greeter uses Wayland rather than Xorg.

I’m on Arch. Wayland, KDE Plasma, SDDM. Followed the instructions on the Arch wiki to no avail.

Any ideas?

I've been downloading FFXV, which is ~88gb, for the past 20 hours and it's been CRAWLING. I've haven't had any issues with my HDD until now, and I downloaded this game before with no issues. I uninstalled to make space and now it's been extremely slow.

Now I'm not sure if this a Wayland moment, I doubt it. I'm still not very experienced with Linux but maybe it could be ? I'm not entirely sure.

Nothing has been giving me troubles until redownloading FFXV. What's your advice, beautiful reddit community ?

Hi friends!

Your PC use secure boot or your stay disabled for better stability?

A lot suggest to stay disable to prevent some problem with Linux distro.

Your experience?

Often when loading an act the game will crash, usually when leaving a big act such as nyakuza metro and entering any other act. This happens pretty much every single time.

I will note that this does not occur if I play the game on Port Proton but that has its own issue where port proton crashes when obs and a hat in time are open at the same time so unless anyone has a solution for that, I need to fix it for the latest version of steam.

I am also not experiencing any crashing issues on any other game.

For those who don't know, a hat in time has a Gold protondb rating, is verified on steam deck, and I've not seen this issue (at least in the varient I have it) anywhere else nor on any other device I've tried Linux on.

Wanted to get back into stalker anomaly after some years but I'm on Linux now.

I read a tons of guides and different methods and I keep having the same problem.

I install anomaly from the website and extract to a folder.

I then go to lutris and add a game and add the exe. When I try to play it works fine and shows the launcher but when I try to get into the game a black box appears and then my whole PC freezes and nothing happens.

I've tried using steam proton and that just doesn't open at all.

Don't really know what to do.

Sometimes it randomly will work and other times it wont.

I have a few other games on lutris that works fine so idk why this one

The answer is ARCH, arch is the only answer for desktop computers… nothing else… the world makes sense now

Hello! I like to use xbox controllers for playing on steam, recently I got myself a brand new one with the share button (I think it works similar than the Playstation controller one?)...

However, steam doesn't detect it, neither Antimicrox (to map it to something else)...

Is there any app or driver that is able to detect the share button from xbox controllers on Linux? (I use the XOW driver and a regular xbox controller isb dongle, it has worked perfectly for the past year or so, no disconnects whatsoever, this is the only "issue" I've ever had)...

Please, let me know...

Thanks!

I'm bit annoyed with them, every day when I open Steam Crusader Kings III requires 1 GB of Vulcan shader, and the recent Vulcan shader update literally broke the game so you can't even launch it any time... Which is exactly what happened last year, when it remained broken for several months.

Admittedly I am new to all this, I decided to give it a try on my laptop because my steam deck had been working so nicely and I want to get away from Windows

So I have an MSI laptop with an RTX 2060 in it. Someone recommended I try kubuntu since KDE is very steam deck like. Issue I'm having is every game I've tried, persona three reload, trails through Daybreak, they just run like garbage. Like my laptop is going into some kind of low performance mode or something, my thought is that it might be actually using the integrated graphics card rather than the Nvidia rtx 2060

Does anyone have any tips on how I might be able to fix this? I feel bad that I don't even really know where to start, but if anyone can give me any guidance that would be really appreciated

Don’t take this out of context, not all games are like this, but it’s incredible Linux is running games with this level of performance. Go watch the whole video: https://youtu.be/0eY34dwpioQ?si=efIHKrna0HxnAy5x

See title; for the record I'm using Ubuntu 24.04 with KDE. Hardware is a Ryzen 5 5500U running the integrated graphics. I've tried several games, and several proton versions, none of them launch. They get about as far as telling me they're running, then instantly close. I have all of the games on an external USB, and games that don't require Proton work just fine via it. I've produced a log file from Sins of a Solar Empire 2, but it doesn't seem to have anything useful in it. It's below regardless. Note that I've made no changes to anything, install or otherwise, and it should all be more or less as it was when I installed it.

As it stands, it fails to load the anti-cheat (go figure) and craps out.
