Has anyone encountered the issue that Intel GPUs do not work in certain games, but llvmpipe, which runs on the CPU, does? I recently installed an Arc A770 graphics card and started playing games. For example, Grim Dawn detects the graphics card and works, regardless of whether Xe or i915 is loaded in the kernel. However, Cyberpunk 2077 or Kingdom Come: Deliverance does not detect the card and runs on the CPU regardless of i915 or Xe loaded. Some other games, such as Diablo IV or The Last of Us: Part II, do not launch at all, displaying an error message about not being able to find a GPU.

MESA_VK_DEVICE_SELECT=list vulkaninfo

Shows only

"llvmpipe (LLVM 20.1.8, 256 bits)" CPU 0000:00:00.0

But

lspci -nn | grep VGA

shows that Arc A770 is present, and other tools such as LACT and GPU-Viewer provide accurate information about the GPU.

Already tried to: set DRI_PRIME=1 - no success; forced DRI_PRIME to use my GPU instead of llvmpipe - no luck. Turned off iGPU - does not help.

I'm running OpenSUSE Tumbleweed with latest updates as of today.

Kernel 6.15.7-1-default

Mesa 25.1.3 (git-ba95e694fe)

KDE Plasma 6.4.3

Ryzen 7800X3D

Wayland session (already tried X11 - same result)

Collective Shout has successfully pressured Visa, Mastercard, and PayPal to threaten Steam, itch.io, and other platforms: remove all adult content within 48 hours or lose payment processing entirely.

This isn't about adult content - it's about control. Once payment processors can dictate content, creative freedom dies.

Remember the Windows 8 "Start Screen"? That full-screen, tile-based mess that made us all rage-quit back to the desktop? Well, I've had a revelation it wasn't a mistake it was an unintentional beta test. Microsoft spent millions to show the world exactly what a console-like PC interface shouldn't be. Years later, the Linux community took notes. Today, dedicated gaming distros like SteamOS, Nobara, and Bazzite have perfected the idea, giving us the streamlined, full-screen gaming experience that Windows 8 fumbled. The irony : Windows 8 crawled so Linux could run.

I'm wanting to play Splitgate 2 for the first time ever and this "Unable to connect to online servers" error pops up.

I tried switching proton versions and it didn't work.

I have this version of Frosty Mod Manager installed as a non-Steam game under Proton 9 (tried running it in Bottles: didn't work). It's worked perfectly with Dragon Age: Inquisition, but it can't locate Dragon Age: The Veilguard. I tried to point it to the exe file manually using the search function, but can't do so because I can't see the hidden .local or .steam folders while inside the wine/Proton file browser.

How do I give it access to view hidden files and folders? Or is there another way around this? Is this a use case for learning about symbolic links?

I am using fedora KDE plasma, and i am running genshin impact using Heroic. I've done their advice where you must close and open internet upon starting game, if login is blank make just alt tab. But when I get in I'm always displayed with this notice. Any fixes for this?

Whenever I use Proton 10.0-1 Beta for playing a game on Linux Mint, whatever color the pixel at the top left corner of the screen will be stuck that same color until the game using Proton is closed. I've tried this with three different games and they all experience this same issue.

If I have something bright like the top of my web browser, then the pixel is stuck bright. If I have something dark like my desktop background, then it's stuck dark. If I open KolourPaint and fill the Canvas red and drag that to the top left corner of the screen, then it's stuck red.

I've tried swapping Proton versions to Experimental and Hotfix, but now the games fail to start. On 9.0-1, the pixel issue doesn't come up, but the games throw a fit when trying to alt-tab to see something else.

Any thoughts/tips?

So I tried using GE-Proton, Proton Hotfix and I got -nointro flag but I end up in a bug exception window. Anybody tried to do this before?

I know that for a lot of games I have to use Proton. So in my steam compatibility setting, I have it set to use Proton Experimental as the default compatibility tool.

I assumed that was all I needed to do, so I downloaded and launched The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth to try it out and it just refused to open when I click play. It only works if I go into the properties of the game, go to compatibility, then click force specific compatibility tool and then select Proton Experimental. Only then will the game launch.

So my question is, what is the point of me having Proton Experimental set in steam's compatibility menu when I still have to go into the game's properties and select the same one anyway? What exactly is steam's option doing if not running all games in that selected proton version until I tell it otherwise in the game's properties?

I've been using been using Bazzite for 4 months, but due to Davinci issues, had to go back to Windows a while ago. Now that my primary reason to use Resolve sorted itself out, I'm thinking about going back. But one thing is holding me back, and that's hit or miss screen share experience on Discord. When I used Vesktop, it would often bug out. I tested the OG flatpak's Wayland share with sound on a VM, and it seems to work, but people in other threads have been saying that the lack of GPU acceleration inevitably results in lag and bad quality. To people who have used the screen share on vanilla Discord - did people in call with you ever complain about lag and poor quality?

I’ve been trying to play the sims 4 again on debian 12 like I used to about two years ago, but Origin switched to that stupid EA launcher, and it seems to be the reason I can’t get the game to run. Nothing I’ve found on ProtonDB has worked, and I think I’ve read all the comments since the launcher changed. That includes trying tons of Proton versions, Proton-GE, and all sorts of launch options.

I guess enough time has passed that there should be some fix for the headache that the EA launcher on Linux has become. I’d really appreciate any info or tips anyone might have :’)

Did this game recently get a patch for easy anti cheat or something? Online wasn't supported on this game in linux before.

edit: seems to most likely be a scripted event unfortunately
