Hey, so I have recently picked up GTFO again, and I am having a blast. I then found out that there are mods for the game.
Does anyone here play GTFO and got mods to run on linux?

Help - messed up Bazzite install
Hi everyone,
I need help. I am new to tinkering and I installed bazzite to my ROG ally. I didn’t understand the shrink and partition portion of the install and only allocated I guess 40 gb to Bazzite. Everything installed but now I realize what I did wrong in this step, as I only have 20 gb of space to use for games after the Bazzite install. Am I cooked ? Do I need to go back somehow or reinstall windows and do this all over again ? Can I change the partition somehow from the bios ?
Thank you

Cannot discover game servers over LAN
Whenever I start a LAN game server on a Windows device on my network, my Linux device does not discover it. When I start the server on Linux, other devices *can* actually discover the server, however they are unable connect.
This same behavior was observed with LAN functionality both in Minecraft and in Among Us, and was tested on Ubuntu and on NixOS. The issue occurs even with the firewall disabled.
Any ideas for how I might troubleshoot this? Thanks

CS2 audio stuttering / micro stuttering fix for KDE/Ubuntu 24.10
Hi community,
my firs post here - I try to share some knowledge
Make sure Desktop starts as
X11 and NOT Wayland
Here my Start parameters:
WAYLAND_DISPLAY= %command% PROTON_ENABLE_NVAPI=1 VKD3D_CONFIG=dxr SDL_VIDEO_DRIVER=x11 %command% -nojoy -sdlaudiodriver pulseaudio -high +r_drawparticles 0 -threads 8 +mat_disable_fancy_blending 1 -softparticlesdefaultoff -nopreload -limitvsconst +mat_queue_mode 2 -tickrate 128 +cl_cmdrate 128 +cl_updaterate 128 +cl_forcepreload 1 -nojoy
Before starting Steam (SNAP Version)
open console
3 commands as user where :~$ is command prompt
:~$ pw-metadata -n settings 0 clock.force-rate 41000
:~$ pw-metadata -n settings 0 clock.force-quantum 2048
:~$ pw-metadata -n settings
first command is sample size which is standard on 48000
second is buffersize standard is 512
third is to write these changes
you can check with cat /proc/asound/card1/pcm0p/sub0/hw_params before and after settings. maybe command differs depending on where your soundcard is located
START STEAM and then
START CS
it removed micro audio stutters for me completely
Cheers

Thoughts: Winlator is just Valve's proxy
I think some of you know know about Winlator: a tool that contains Wine, Box64, DXVK etc. to play Windows games on Android. It's made by BrunoSX whose real name apparently Bruno Sousa. The only desciption he give about himself is next:
I'm a Brazilian developer who really likes to program in Java and C.
What's suspicious is that his github account doesn't have any activity before Winlator. Yet what he does? He made an entire Android applications with interfaces to underlying Linux software like Wine, Xserver to support proper rendering and proper input. He even made a special shim Vulkan driver called Vortek that uses underlying vendor Android Vulkan driver! Isn't that too much work for a single individual? He has a small site with little to no design and single "donation" link on "Buy me a coffee". Doesn't seem very convincing if you asked me.
Even though Winlator is kinda open-source only sources for version 7 actually released and every update to repo goes in batches. That's how corporations prefer to work with open source when they develop things under the curtains and only dump changes with some intervals. If you want to see how real open source projects looks like check mobox repo: it's kinda Winlator competitor based upon Termux. Mobox does really looks like a work of a small individuals with the help of community
So my theory is that all this Winlator thing is a facade for Valve to develop Proton on Android. We already know for sure that they're developing Proton for ARM.

Graphical glitches in Linux, but not Windows
Hello there!
I recently got myself a RX 9070, and I am fairly happy with it.
However, I seem to have this issue, where when I am using Linux, I am getting glitches and graphical artifacts in different places. You can see these below.
I was kind of wondering whether the GPU was dying, but I don't really know what is happening. There really doesn't seem to be any clear issues, other than the graphical ones. I tried gaming in Linux, and the games ran fine, without any issues.
At this point, I don't know.
Any help would be appreciated.

Weird issue
Been playing Dex past couple days without issue, today the comtroller setup was completely fucked, checked a couple other native linux games I had and it wasn't the controller so I uninstalled the game and installed the windows version. Will update if the game works going forward, might be a bad native port.

Recommended Distro for Older Nvidia Laptop
Good day all, Was looking for a distro I can install on an older laptop.
The laptop has a 4th gen i7 processor and NVidia GTX 960 (or 970, have to double check.), as well as 12 gbs of ram.
I do have older games that I know this computer can run (Wanted to start Bioshock infinite) and some things in Blender (not super intensive).
I was considering CachyOS but it recommended at minimum a 2000 series Nvidia GPU.

Steam Shader Compiling CS2
So i tried to play cs2 with my laptop today, at this point i‘m waiting 3 Hours until cs2 has finished compiling Vulkan Shaders. I‘m using all of my 12 Threads to compile the Shaders so this is not the Issue. Any way to save the Shaders after reboot or any way to speed this up ?
PS: on my PC it only takes a minute

My indie game releases on Linux today!
I just released a roguelike I've been working on that's inspired by "Risk of Rain 2" and "Motherload." I started development on Windows 10, but I switched to Linux Mint near the end because of Microsoft's BS. Linux has been so good to me that I decided to go through the (relatively little) trouble of releasing on Linux too! I'm really excited to release my first Linux game, and if you wanna check it out, here's a link to the Steam page: https://store.steampowered.com/app/3252310/Comet_Rogue/
