I’m not necessarily playing super intensive games, but I am looking to upgrade my 5 year old PC and get a new CPU/GPU. I have been curious on Intel GPUs and want to know how well it works. I’m a software dev, gamer, and I do video editing. Can anyone talk to how well the GPUs run with Linux? Preferred is Pop OS

Hello,

As Microsoft decided to put a deadline on W10 and being absolutely horrified by W11, I decided to jump on Linux, Bazzite.
For now, it only happened when I play WhereWindsMeet but, after 10-15mn the game starts by stuttering, and then my PC freezes, until the fluidity comes back after waiting a bit
If feels like I don't have enough RAM but wouldn't the game crash then ?
Or could it be the shader cash ?

I have absolutely no idea where the cause might be.

Here is my setup :

Operating System: Bazzite 43

KDE Plasma Version: 6.5.4

KDE Frameworks Version: 6.21.0

Qt Version: 6.10.1

Kernel Version: 6.17.7-ba22.fc43.x86_64 (64-bit)

Graphics Platform: Wayland

Processors: 12 × AMD Ryzen 5 5600X 6-Core Processor

Memory: 16 GiB of RAM (15.5 GiB usable)

Graphics Processor: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 (12Go)

Manufacturer: Gigabyte Technology Co., Ltd.

Product Name: B450 GAMING X

I would be grateful for any leads about this and a few pointers on where to look.
Was searching for log files but, I don't know where there are.

I got this laptop and installed linux mint on it. Before I tested a bunch of games on windows like Dota 2 and they worked perfectly.
Now on Linux, most steam games that I've tried freeze my laptop after a few minutes of playtime, Dota 2 freezes as soon as I click start a match (Even bot matches). The freeze isn't just on the game, my whole system seems frozen and I have to shutdown manually.

Tried a bunch of online solutions I've found but no luck. Changing kernel versions and using a newer Mesa version didn't work. Made a timeshift back to my initial configuration so I didn't make any big permanent changes.

This is my system info: https://pastebin.com/tY7YV3rW

I've hear intel integrated graphics might have a lot of problems with Linux, but games from Lutris have been working without a problem. I installed steam through system package. Don't know if the .deb file would work any differently.
Any help is greatly appreciated!

TL;DR: Steam games crash my laptop

I've recently moved from a pair of dell 1080p monitors to two AOC 4k monitors, and they seem to have caused some mystery issues across a variety of games:

Blasphemous - Stutter every second or so, went away with VSync disabled. Seems to have gone away on its own at some point

Death Howl - Same as Blasphemous, but with no option to disable VSync.

Snowrunner - Slowdown evey second or so. Again, went away with VSync, and also no longer seems to be an issue.

These issues occurred on Linux Mint 22.2 with the 6.8 and 6.14 kernels, and now seem to be gone with the update to 22.3/6.17.

Now for the one that's still causing issues. Elden ring runs at a solid 60 FPS regardless of settings, but as you can see in the image there's a noticable drop to ~40 FPS like clockwork. This definitely happened before the update, but unfortunately there's no options for VSync, so I don't know if that's the issue.

It seems not to happen if I use my old monitor again, but it doesn't seem to be obviously performance related. It happens with and without adaptive sync, and forcing the composition pipeline (or full composition pipeline) in the nvdia settings has no effect. Has anyone run into anything similar?

System:

Linux Mint 22.3 - Cinnamon 6.6.4 64-bit

6.17.0-1009-oem

AMD Ryzen 5 9600X

GeForce RTX 4070

32GB RAM

X11

for example the patch notes for ge proton typically state:

update dxvk latest git

update vkd3d-proton latest git

update vkd3d latest git

however in bottles I get to select dxvk-2.7.1 (for example) regardless of which version of ge proton / wine I am using

is it an override? what happens if it's disabled? how do I use the one that's bundled with ge proton as mentioned in the patch notes?

I recently switched completely from Windows 11 to CachyOS. The computer has always been shared between two people, so we always created two users (this is convenient so that each user can customize their workspace and their data doesn't conflict with the other user). However, in Linux, we ran into a premissions issue: a file or directory must always have a single owner. Our games are stored on a separate drive, and each user needs access to it, so we took the simple approach of creating a separate group for disk access. This would be fine, but Steam Proton requires the compatdata owner to be explicitly specified so that the game can run under the current user's account. Therefore, if compatdata is owned by User1, then when User2 presses Play, the game will close within a second. I was advised to use bindfs and mount SteamLibrary separately for each user, but this requires entering the root password each time, which significantly complicates life and seems less secure. Is there a graceful way out of this situation? Perhaps there's a way to store compatdata separately for each user, which sounds more logical and reasonable? In the Heroic Games Launcher, for example, the wineprefixes is stored in ~/games for each user.

Hi, maybe someone will be able to help me. I've been trying to play nfs most wanted with a few mods (widescreenfixes, extra options, mwunlimiter, hd reflections etc...)

But for some reason every time i try to install those mods the game refuses to launch, just one pop up of a black screen before closing right away.

I've tried with proton-ge, proton-em, proton-cachy, proton experimental and few older versions but nothing.

The games does launch once i delete the asi loader.

It's the first time that i'm facing a wall like that, I usually always find a way but this one doesn't want to work

I made a game where you can start a cult and send your cultists to raise hell in various silly ways. Best of all, it runs entirely inside the Linux terminal!

Hope you find it funny!

You can wishlist CultGame on steam today! https://store.steampowered.com/app/2345980/CultGame/

Hello everyone! I have an issue that only happens when I share using discord. I can game for hours with no issues but once I turn on screen share the screen flashes black then appears to artifact. Running Linux Mint 22.2 Cinnamon fully up to date. Discord hardware acceleration is turned off per another post I found with similar issues. AMD FX8350, 16gb memory, XFX RX 570 8gb, 500gb SSD + 2TB HDD. Once again I game for hours with no issues on games like AC: Valhalla and others and this only happens when I screen share with Discord. Thank you for any help!

Hi everyone
I need help. I no longer know what the problem is, I’ve tried a bunch of things.

Context:
Game: Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon (probably build on Unity). Spikes and freezes every equal period of time (you can see it on video and on mangohud GPU visualization in the top left corner. I try mostly everything I know or can google or ask GPT. And now I'm stuck.

ProtonDB says that globally no one has issues with the game. So I didn’t find a suitable solution there.

I asked ChatGPT and tried various options based on its advice, but nothing helped.
Here’s an approximate list of what I tried.

1. I have tried different Protons: cachy-proton, Proton 10, Proton Experimental, Proton 8.05.

2. Use my settings from Arc Raiders

• PROTON_LOCAL_SHADER_CACHE=1 PROTON_USE_NTSYNC=1 PROTON_DLSS_UPGRADE=1 PROTON_USE_EAC_LINUX=1 DXVK_ASYNC=1 %command%

1. ChatGPT mention that this may be problems with cash or somewhat, and i Tried different things like:

• __GL_SHADER_DISK_CACHE_SKIP_VALIDATION=1
• DXVK_STATE_CACHE=0

1. Also this variants of sync

• PROTON_NO_ESYNC=1
• PROTON_NO_FSYNC=1
• DXVK_ASYNC=1

1. Tried disable in-game overlay

And many other things...just don't remember and lost chat history due to "temporary" chat. I thought it will be easy and fast solution =)

Game supports only dx11 due to the specs, so I don't use force dx11 options (okay I tried, but that was no sence to do it)

My specs:

OS: CachyOS x86_64
Host: Katana 17 B13VGK (REV:1.0)
Kernel: Linux 6.18.3-2-cachyos
Uptime: 6 hours, 38 mins

WM: KWin (Wayland)
Terminal: konsole 25.12.1
CPU: 13th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-13620H z

Hey everyone, I’m building a dedicated Steam Machine / Streaming game box with an ASRock BC-250 running Bazzite. I’ve even set up a smart plug with Alexa to handle the PSU so I can have a full "couch experience," but I’m hitting a major roadblock with the USB peripherals.

If I boot the system with an 8BitDo Bluetooth Adapter 2 plugged in, it causes a serious hardware conflict: 1. The system clock (RTC) gets completely corrupted at boot. 2. My Realtek WiFi 5G dongle breaks. It sees networks but gives an "authentication error" every time.

The weird part is that even if I manually fix the date and time in the OS, the WiFi still won't connect. The only fix is to physically unplug the 8BitDo adapter before powering on, wait for Bazzite to load, and then plug it back in.

This totally defeats the purpose of a couch setup and most of all as a streaming Steam Machine, since I have to physically fiddle with the dongles every single time. Since the WiFi is broken, I can't even use a script to sync the time via NTP because there’s no connection.

Is this a known resource/IRQ conflict on the BC-250? Does somebody have a solution for my situation?

Thank you in advance 🙏🏻
