Can you use nVidia GPU gaming with android vm/container/dual boot?
I've tried QEMU, Waydroid, KVM, Bliss OS dual boot, and they resulted in either poor performance / software rendering or not working.
Now I am considering nVidia container tool and redroid, are there any alternate methods or tips? I am happy to know.
edit: forgot to mention that I am on PC and have no integrated GPU, only dedicated nVidia GPU, and the GPU is RTX 4060 Ti.

Space marine 2 crashing after loading
Hi, I'm new at linux gaming and been messing around with Cachyos. Got space marine 2 and running on proton experimental.
The game opens, and after I click continue, the game loads and goes to a black screen for some minutes and it crashes after.
I've tried other protons and nothing changed.
Does anybody knows what might be happening?
Thanks in advance!!

Unable to create Bottles caused by failing Arial font installation
Hello, I installed Bottles flatpak on Arch and wanted to test it, but the error tells me that it was unable to create bottle due to Microsoft Arial font installation being failed.
I had to avoid Lutris after being discovered it was coded with AI, meanwhile Faugus Launcher didn't let me alt tab to NFS Underground 2 after screenshotting my cars. Any solution is appreciated. Thanks.

Crimson Desert low performance on 5090
I play at 5120x1440 which is close to 4K in terms of computational demand and looking at 4K benchmarks on youtube many others with my specs below are getting 100+ FPS on Windows in most scenes whereas I can barely maintain a stable 60 in the game even on low-medium settings on Linux. Anyone know why my performance is so gimped? Is the game not running well on Proton?
- OS: Arch
- CPU: AMD 7800x3D
- RAM: 32 GB 6000 mhz
- GPU: RTX 5090
- Proton Version: GE-Proton10-33 (latest, afaik)
If anyone has any ideas let me know.

Hori Fighting Stick alpha? (Xbox Series or PS5)
My google-fu is strong, but I can't find a definite report of either of these working in Linux. It's a wired device... I don't know if that means it will just use Xinput and work; the 'xone' project on github (https://github.com/medusalix/xone) leads me to believe recent Xbox peripherals are not always a sure thing.
Or maybe it's just wireless devices... I have no idea and can't test. (A good test might be... does anyone have a Xbox Series X|S controller that works fine in Linux wired, without using any of the extended github projects?)
Only report I can find is some guy couldn't get his PS5 version working in Steam. (https://www.reddit.com/r/linux_gaming/comments/1pl9cs1/getting_hori_alpha_to_recognize_within_steam/)
Devices in question:
Hori Fighting Stick alpha Xbox Series X|S
Thanks for any input.

Infrastructure #674 | A psychological terminal-horror game where every command reveals the truth. Learn real Linux commands while uncovering the truth.
Hi everyone,
I’m working on a small indie game called **Infrastructure #674**.
It’s a psychological horror game where the player explores a mysterious infrastructure terminal and slowly uncovers the truth behind a rogue AI.
The twist is that the game teaches real Linux-style commands while you play.
You interact with the system using commands like:
help
scan
connect
ls
cat
decrypt
As the investigation progresses the system starts reacting to the player and strange glitches begin to appear.
The idea is to combine:
- terminal hacking gameplay
- psychological horror
- learning Linux basics
I’d love to get feedback from developers and players.
What do you think about the concept?
Would you play something like this?
If anyone wants to test it I can share the build.

Sober behaving weirdly
So I was using Sober on my steamdeck as usual, but the arrow key stopped working correctly. They started just moving me or the camera slightly in one direction instead of what they were supposed to do. I tried factory reset and it worked for a short time just for the issue to appear again.

I made a keyboard-only FPV drone game with vim keybindings - runs on Linux and browser
hjkl to fly, : for command mode. No controller needed.
:god and :auto together make it practically fly itself.
Procedural terrain and city stage, both infinite.

I can't install the Repentence DLC, even though I own it.
I tried asking steam support for help, but apparently Steam for Linux is not supported on the version I'm using (Linux Mint 22.3 - Cinnamon 64-bit). They basically told I have to rely on the community, so here I am.

Heroic managed ge-proton - is it OK to symlink so Steam can share it?
I seem to have 2 different ge-proton installed. One managed by Heroic, the other directly into the ~/.steam/steam/compatibilitytools.d/ folder for use with Steam. Can Heroic and Steam comfortably share the same install and therefore can I just symlink from ~/.steam/steam/compatibilitytools.d/ to the Heroic ge-proton installation?

P5X refuses to work no matter what
It's either not enough space or that Qt plugin error which doesn't even let me launch the game. This is all so very annoying.

Rebel Galaxy Outlaw low framerate
I can get the game to launch but the framerate is unplayably low. I looked around but can't find any solution. It's the gog version and I'm on bazzite.
Edit: it also gets stuck loading at various points depending on which version of wine/proton I'm using
