Steam opens the terminal when browsing files instead of Nautilus.

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 13 min 22 sec ago

Not sure why this is, but suddenly Steam is opening the terminal when trying to browse files. Is this due to some steam update and something went wrong or something else? Worked fine so far. I have the standard version from the repo installed, not the flatpak.

Arch linux, Gnome.

Anyone else had this issue?

My upgraded build

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 24 min 19 sec ago

It’s been a long road of buying new but defective parts,it’s all worth it now. it’s been over a year since I left console, and about 6 months on Linux. I’ll never go back to either.

Bazzite, Nobara, Pop_os, or…?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 33 min 38 sec ago

I recently changed some components in my PC including my gpu (which is now nvidia) and I have to reinstall my system, so I’m looking for a distro that is stable, well maintained, preferably gaming oriented, preferably with nvidia drivers already and that I can use as my only system (without needing windows ). I use it for gaming and game development mostly.

I tried Nobara in the past (with my amd gpu) and it worked great but I’m not thrilled with the fact that is a one man project.

I have never tried bazzite or any atomic desktop so that could be an interesting experience.

I love pop_os but with gnome 42 it feels kinda old at this point and it seems that 24.04 won’t arrive soon.

I would appreciate your recommendations on any distro you want to recommend me.

My specs CPU: Ryzen 5 3600 Ram: 32gb Gpu: RTX 4060ti

The only hardware that I have that may need a driver is my huion drawing tablet.

Steam keeps crashing

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 40 min 11 sec ago

Anyone got any ideas as for why Steam Friends List keeps crashing? It also crashes the entirety of steam if I try to open messages from friends by clicking on the notification. I have tried googling it myself, but none of the fixes I have tried works. I am on the latest version of Bazzite.

Edit: I have tried deleting the htmlcache and disabling then reenabling "Scale text and icons to match monitor settings"

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 1 hour 19 min ago

Hello, i try to run Assetto with Proton 9.0 and it prints on the terminal "ld.so: object '/home/__/.local/share/Steam/ubuntu12_32/gameoverlayrenderer.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded (wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32): ignored.", "ERROR: ld.so: object '/home/__/.local/share/Steam/ubuntu12_64/gameoverlayrenderer.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded (wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64): ignored." and then "System.TypeLoadException: Could not load type of field 'AC.Launcher.App:ACshf' (0) due to: Could not load file or assembly 'CEF3, Version=49.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null' or one of its dependencies.", same results with 8.0-5 and Experimental, a detail is that it also prints "wine: RLIMIT_NICE is <= 20, unable to use setpriority safely" before trying to launch

If it helps, i use Manjaro, a RX580 and i5 4570

What does Steam download after each system update?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 1 hour 45 min ago

Every time I update the system, Steam updates all the games, and some of them start compiling shaders for several minutes at startup. Why is this happening?

Steam refuses to add second SSD to game library (Plasma 6 Neon)

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 2 hours 29 min ago

Howdy!

I've gotten Steam up and running on my main desktop. The main hurdle I'm struggling to get past is adding my main storage drive to my Steam Library. I've reformatted the drive to the GPT filesystem with KDE partition manager, and steam will let me select the drive when it has me choose which drive I want to add, but Steam refuses to recognize my choice and doesn't add the drive after I choose it. I'm still stuck with just my boot drive. I've searched a bit online for remedies to this issue, but I can't seem to find a post particular to my issue.

I'm also having issues with a flickering screen in hardware accelerated programs (Chrome, Discord, Steam) using the latest proprietary NVIDIA drivers. Still trying to find a solution to that myself, but if someone has the answer to that, would also be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

Anyone had any luck with a Lenovo LOQ?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 4 hours 25 min ago

Hello everyone! I recently got a Lenovo LOQ PE0C1946, with a i5 12450H and RTX 3050 6GB.

I've longed dreamed of migrating as much as I can to Linux, albeit there's still some limits to that. And now, with this machine, I wonder how well I could do that.

Anyone having any luck with the LOQ series? Any issues? How well does the RTX 3050 performs on Wayland nowadays? What you guys do to substitute the built-in windows app that controls power schemes and fans intensity?

Why do some say that playing on Linux is complicated?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 5 hours 1 min ago

Is it true that on Linux it is not enough to click on a program to launch it? How does it work then? Is it also true that we can't play in full screen?

Red Dead Redemption 2 Without Launcher

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 5 hours 8 min ago

Does anyone know a way to get RDR2 from the Epic store to run (preferably in Heroic launcher) without needing to install the Rockstar Launcher?

I only want to play single player and don't want that malware on my system.
