Hi, I've installed mangohud and gamescope, I want to use the mangohud in all my games to monitor the performance.

I have Steam some games also use launchers like Planetside2 and non-steam Star Citizen.

Is there a config I need to setup for specific fullscreen programs?

Now that Steam has now required developers to state whether they use kernel-level anti-cheat, and just as EA drops Linux support for Apex, here is a list of the 20 most played multiplayer games on Steam as of today, as per the SteamDB website chart. Sorted by number of users, and filtered on whether or not they use kernel-level anti-cheat (or are otherwise made incompatible with Linux), and on whether or not there is a high chance of such an anti-cheat being added in the future:

Pos. Name Incompatible with Linux? Anti-cheat used Details 1 Counter-Strike 2 No VAC Created by Valve 2 DOTA 2 No VAC Created by Valve 3 PUBG Battlegrounds Yes, due to configuration BattlEye 4 Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Yes, kernel-level Ricochet 5 Throne and Liberty No... so far EAC Developed by NCSoft, also developers of Lineage II, which is currently broken on Linux 6 GTA V Yes, due to configuration BattlEye 7 Rust Yes, due to configuration EAC 8 Naraka: Bladepoint No... so far NEAC Protect Published by NetEase, creators of the NetEase Anti-Cheat Expert (NACE), which is kernel-level 9 Apex Legends Yes, due to configuration EAC 10 War Thunder No EAC Developed by Gaijin Entertainment; no other multiplayer games released; support for Linux was explicitly stated by developers 11 Factorio No No anti-cheat at all 12 Once Human No... so far NEAC Protect The Chinese servers use NetEase Anti-Cheat Expert (NACE), which is kernel-level 13 Stardew Valley No No anti-cheat at all 14 EA Sports FC 25 Yes, kernel-level EA Anticheat 15 Crab Game No No anti-cheat at all 16 Football Manager 2024 No No anti-cheat at all 17 Deadlock No VAC Created by Valve 18 Baldur's Gate 3 No No anti-cheat at all 19 DayZ No BattlEye Developed by Bohemia Interactive; their other games, mainly the Arma series, do not seem to use kernel-level anti-cheat either 20 Dead by Daylight No EAC Developed by Behaviour Interactive; no other multiplayer games released; support for Linux was explicitly stated by developers submitted by /u/csolisr

Crowbar Collective have a fresh Beta available for Black Mesa, their fan-made reimagining of Valve Software's Half-Life. This brings with it some nice improvements all across the game, especially for Linux platforms like Steam Deck.

Linux gaming / Proton has been improving for many years, peaking around 2019-2024. But it was 2023 in particular when it was at its best, when most games were supported and word began to spread more widely to the mainstream audience about the Steam Deck and Proton. Then this year, like the meteor that doomed the dinosaurs, kernel level anticheat happened. It became a huge point of discourse across the PC gaming scene, even outside of Linux. It has been a steady dicline in support for multiplayer games on Linux since. I lost my trio in particular, GTA Battlefield and Apex (games that worked just weeks ago) have all explicity blocked from being played on Linux. If it doesn't get better from here, I'll be glad to have said I was gaming on Linux full time during its prime/golden age. I can only hope Gaben can step in here and trailblaze a new solution for this anticheat debacle we are going through.

Right now I have a ROG Ally, and I've thought a little bit about installing Linux on it. On my main gaming PC I won't do it because I play Fortnite from time to time. But with the ROG Ally I don't really play any multiplayer games. For Forza Horizon 5 I mainly play the campaign missions, but I know that the game is kinda always online by default. The multiplayer part of it is a fairly big part of the game. Forza Horizon 5 is one of my favorite games on the ROG Ally right now. With Apex Legends getting rid of Linux support along with many other multiplayer games, I definitely am getting worried about other AAA games

When I started the game it sayed the game failed loading the anticheat, am realy sad EA decide to take this road with linux compatibility. Am probably never gonna buy a game from this company in fear of it not working anymore on my computer.

Hey everyone,

I’m having trouble with Apex Legends on Linux. Yesterday, the game ran just fine, but today after school, I got this error: "The client failed an anti-cheat backend check."

I haven't installed any new software, and when I checked online, I saw that some Windows users had similar issues after new installations, which isn't the case for me.

Here's what I’ve tried so far:

• Verified the integrity of the game files – no changes were detected.

Is there any workaround for this? Has anyone else experienced this issue on Linux? Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Just tried Dragon Age: Veilguard that just got released and it won't start. It errors out with the game saying "detected nvidia geforce drivers version 550.99. The required driver version is 560.70 or later".

I'm not even running "550.99" on Linux, I'm running 550.127.05. And 560.70 is a Windows nvidia driver version, not a Linux one. Is there an environment variable or anything to fake a specific driver version, so that the game shuts up about it?

Hey, I'm looking for a Dummy Plug, to stream in 4k HDR from my PC(bazzite) to my phone using moonlight. Does something like this exist or even work with Linux? I'd appreciate your input ❤️

Hi, I just upgraded my PC with an Nvidia 4070 and a new cooler (not yet arrived) but during my gaming sessions the PSU fan increases in speed and makes a strange noise. Also, the CPU temperature is too high (about 90/100 °C) but its utilization is around 10/15 %. The question is, before I worry, should I wait for the new cooler?

Current configuration:

- CPU: Ryzen 5 2600x

- GPU: Nvidia 4070

- Cooler: AMD stock cooler + 1 fan

- Memory: 1T nvme

- PSU: Coolermaster 600W

- Distro: Pop_os

Thanks for your attention.

Escape From Castle Matsumoto looks like quite a unique one, and the developers give the Steam Deck some rather high praise.

Not sure if it will work for everyone, but I am one of the people with the D3D fatal error and with the new hotfix it actually works fine. The commit in question : https://github.com/HansKristian-Work/vkd3d-proton/commit/dd7ad6d2545cb79a27f907d8512c4f1c1520c24f

To use it, go to your steam library, look for proton experimental > properties > betas > bleeding edge

Then force compatibility on MH Wilds to use proton experimental, launches just fine for me now, currently compiling shaders.
