so, as of the last... week or so? every so often my cursor just stutters. for no reason

i checked dmesg, xorg log, inputlib debug, journalctl, performance graphs, mission control, everything.

i even tried switching to wayland, the stutters still persist

i clean installed my distro (fedora 40) after upgrading to fedora 41

it would be one thing if the movement was just jittery sometimes, but it even effects my controller inputs...

and it happens like.. every 10 seconds to every 5 minutes. there's basically no pattern, i don't even have steam installed right now and it's happening. it happened without firefox installed, it started happening as soon as i updated all of my packages to the current ones.

does anyone have ANY idea what i can do/should do here? i'm running out of patience quickly...

certain games appear to not respect the System Settings - Mouse, Pointer Speed setting.

In my case, I run -0.8, and that means my mouse in these games gets WAY faster as the game sees effectively Pointer Speed = 0. It's unusable.
Games of example: IL2, Warframe, Star Citizen in the inventory menu specifically

I am on Nobara 40 with Plasma DE.

There are tons of these, but I can't find any that work with a Linux OS.

A macro triggers lets you change the top triggers to be a shorter distance to full press (so ideal for either/or actions) or longer when you need fine control (like driving games where depth matters).

The extra triggers on the back of the controller are the hardest to find. They usually let you map existing buttons or a combination of existing buttons to them.

I enabled the steam play in steam, the game window would stuck and flicker like the one shown in the screenshot. (I tried to force multiple proton version but none of them would work)

Could this be a graphics driver issue? Need help troubleshooting.

Hey everyone, I recently dived back into the world of linux and found that the one thing that was stopping me from sticking with it long term was a really annoying issue with FFXIV. The issue surrounds the cursor, more specifically turning the camera with the cursor. Doing so results in a very jarring stutter when the mouse button is lifted. The issue does not happen when turning the camera with the keyboard and the rest of the game runs without any issues. Is this a problem anyone else has experienced?

What I have tried?:

• Changing mouse dpi and polling rate
• Locking the cursor to the game window
• Multiple versions of wine and steam proton

My system specs:

• OS - CachyOS (I have tried on other distros with the same issue occurring)
• CPU - AMD Ryzen 5 5600G
• GPU - Nvidia RTX 3060
• WM - Hyprland

I have a 28" 4k display that I run at 1440p instead of 4k because I made a poor decision in monitors. Most games look fine and play well, though text could be a little crisper. Yeah, I wish I had bought a native 1440 with higher refresh instead of 4k. But I play slower games and prefer higher graphics over fps game play anyway.

But I'm getting to the point where the poor text quality leaves me rarely using that screen for anything other than games. I read that running native 4k and scaling the screen would be better for text quality, but how does that affect games? Will games run at 4k, or be scaled somehow? Will I need to lower graphics settings to keep my eye candy up? I'm running a 5900X with a 6800 XT.

Hey guys - I recently built a new system with the intention of playing cyberpunk on it. Got everything setup. Just to do some testing, I run a command to update the sensor outputs. I noticed my adapter port is running at a high 58 degrees Celsius. Should I be concerned? Are any of these temps whack? I'm buying some more fans on Friday as my PC has room for 2 more. Just wanted to get advice on it.

Cpu - r5 7500 Gpu - rx 7800xt

Appreciate the advice!

I just downloaded Linux Mint and I love it so far, but the only issue is I lose significant amounts of FPS the longer I play. For example, in Rivals 2 first couple of games over 100fps but after a couple matches it drops down to 20s. Same issue with RoR2. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Someone else mentioned this in game, so it's not just me. When I played Dota 2 today on Linux (Ubuntu 22.04), graphics seemed much smoother than it has recently. My build is Ryzen 5 7600, 32gb ram, GTX 1650 super. Whatever Valve did, I love it. Does anyone know what, if anything, they did? It must have been a patch in the last day or 2. I have had "background processing of vulkan shaders" enabled for a few months and never "skip" vulkan shader processing.

I installed oversteer and it senses that the wheel is connected and all of the games that I have tried also see it, but for some reason only the pedals and the buttons work. The wheel doesn't have any feedback force and doesn't spin to center itself when I plug it in. I've looked online and can't seem to find anybody that has had this issue. Does anybody know the fix to this problem?

So, ive been researching the whole RADV/AMDVLK and ACO/LLVM topic for the past few days, since i want to get rid of stuttering in games played through steam proton. Using rx588 (2048sp yes im poor) with mesa 22 on debian 12. The problem is that RADV_PERFTEST=aco does't seem to change anything, as if i dont have ACO included into my driver at all. Launching the game with "RADV_PERFTEST=aco DXVK_HUD=devinfo %command%" launch setting shows that im using Polaris 10 and no mention of aco, trying "RADV_PERFTEST=llvm DXVK_HUD=devinfo %command%" yield identical result. Also i included that as an environment variable into every file mentioned in other discussions (/etc/environment, /etc/profile, ~/.profile), still no changes and the original stuttering is still there. Is there any way to at least check that i have aco installed and possibly install it if not?

I think Valve is implying that the current approach is not good enough and is being careful. Hence, VAC is not kernel-level, and I think Valve will not push more on Anti-Cheat Support unless it creates more issues.

But I do think sudden drops of support from Steam Deck require notice or something. Esp if the game is very popular or etc.

So my aging xbox360 pc controller is getting ready to be retired. It worked great but it showing its age.

Which controller should I look for?

I want the best Linux support possible, working and giving all the features in the most games possible, and I plan to use it wired.

Does the trackpad on PS5 controller have any advantage? Or is any other 3° party controller in the same price range better?

Thanks in advance.
