So I switched to linux about 2 weeks ago, first distro I used was Garuda but I have a problem with VAC running Dota there, I switched to Arch (I've followed every tutorial that exist to install Arch and to setup the game) and then this pops up (Image below).

Did I missed a step or two?

I never add -vulkan on my launch options, I cannot check the in-game settings because I cannot log in, I've tried to add -safe_mode and -gl on the launch options but it won't work, I also tried to use the "Force the use of a specific Steam Play compability tool" on Compability option (Selecting proton version) but it kills Dota process before I even get to the black starting screen (Game window).

I've tried another games like Minecraft Java and Sword of Convallaria and it runs just fine without any problem and with even better performance than back when I ran it on windows.

but

I just want to play Dota :')

So... uh... I did something to my Steam Deck, and despite WoW being installed on the SD card still I can no longer launch it, and when I try to launch Battle.net it can only access games on my "main" drive (which is tiny and not where I download anything to)

I have installed the latest proton-tkg from here: https://github.com/Frogging-Family/wine-tkg-git/actions/workflows/proton-arch-nopackage.yml

I have edited the registry by adding Graphics key with x11,wayland.

Ok, I can launch the game, but the HDR can not be enabled.

Does nvidia still not support fullscreen tearing for all applications on kde plasma? I tried KWIN_DRM_NO_AMS=1 but it resulted in a black screen on wayland. Some of my native wayland games still have more input lag than when running them natively in X11. I have adaptive sync off and am running the games at fps higher than my monitors refresh rate but it still feels laggy. It makes me not believe that enable tearing for fullscreen applications is working.

I downloaded the beta of Monster Hunter Wilds but it's crashing immediately at launch, a crash report tool quickly appears and then closes itself. I tried stable Proton, experimental and GE, same behavior on all of them.

The beta starts in about 24 hours, but I've seen people saying that you can compile the shaders now, so it wasn't supposed to crash.

Any workarounds?

I got my new GPU in and tried to get it to work with my current Debian 12 build, but after trying a lot of different installs the drivers just constantly were shit. I tried the .run files, I tried the 3rd party nvidia repo, but I just don't think I'm cut out to make this shit work without the official Debian packages. Right now they are still on 535 and nvidia-detect was telling me it requires ~555+ and Debian testing is also only on 545. I got them installed but then steam games wouldn't launch, the desktop would be super laggy etc.

I figure when I get the rest of my parts in I will start fresh so are there any good chill distributions to get the required drivers for 4070 installed easily? Might be a WSL angle for the next year or so.

Anyone figure out how to allow Vortex mod manager to deploy mods to respective games? It's able to detect the games but I keep getting "deployment failed" and "no available deployment method" errors.

My game directories and files all have 755 perms and are owned by my user and group.

Hey everyone. I just wanted to sit down and play some TF2 after a long while of not playing it and to my actual surprise, it just doesn’t work. Running it natively either causes my desktop to not respond or the game just crashes outright. And then when I try to get into a game, it tells me I’m in “insecure mode” and I’m not sure how to get out of it. I’ve tried adding -secure to launch options, I’ve tried forcing it to use Steam Linux Runtime, I’ve tried Team Fortress 2 and OpenGL from the launch options, nothing works. The only thing that does seem to work is Proton GE but I still can’t get out of insecure mode. Does anyone know how to fix this?

Context, when I play Stardew Valley with mods (SMAPI) through steam the terminal defaults to xterm, My preferred terminal is kitty. So is their a way to specify what terminal for it to use?

Is this even a Steam issue? When launching a terminal through dolphin without konsole installed it defaulted to xterm, so that made me wonder if I needed to set a system wide default? If so, how would I? I am running Arch Linux, with Hyprland as my WM.

This is specifically with the tearing enabled and compositing turned off. I was just wondering, it seems like X11 is snappier than windows to me but it is impossible to tell without any real test results. Does anyone know of results like this that could be referenced here?

No C++ fans here pls.

I'm looking for a way to ensure extremely low latency on wayland with the new tearing protocol on a native Linux game (Counter Strike 2). My compositor/wm jay supports the tearing protocol at the time of writing this. I refuse to use Kwin or hyprland for Rust reasons. My options according to this piece of wayland explorer documentation are Jay or Weston, I still don't know what Weston does exactly, is it a reference compositor similar to pipewire-media-session? Anyways. I've decided for Jay.

What else needs my setup to ensure full use of the wayland tearing protocol? Recompiling the kernel? Another Proton installation? wine-git that enable wayland? Could I just use it with xwayland for now? I suppose that for CS2, native game, proton doesn't take part on it. Still I have a lot of doubts.

My system: - Fedora Silverblue 41 (I have a testing PC with Fedora Workstation 41) - Rx6600xt GPU - STEAM installed inside toolbox

Hi all, I've been having bandwidth issues on my wifi device lately

When I gaming, my steam connection gets disconnected almost everytime. It seems like if there is a more prioritized network process, it cuts off others. I'm not sure if this is normal. Here is my pc specs.

Trying out Linux and liking it so far. I play a lot of rhythm games and the main one I play, EZ2ON, has support for ASIO in Windows for reduced audio latency. Is there any Linux equivalent?

Hi all, hopefully this is a good spot to ask this question. I was wondering if the issue above is common and if there is a fix? I have pretty good wireless connectivity and my PC has a wired connection to an AP so I'm not too sure why I'm having stutters. My steam deck on the other hand does not get either issue, perhaps a "low connectivity" warning but only occasionally.

I'm not too sure if it's necessary, but I ran upload-system-info in the terminal and I will paste the output here:

Hey, lately I've been wanting to get a windows virtual machine to run my games that I cannot on linux instead of dual-booting as I do now. I've been reading a lot about it but right now I'm kinda stuck as I'm not exactly sure on where to start. I've created virtual machines before using VirtualBox but mainly for learning purposes, servers etc so I think i know some basics but I still need something to latch onto from where I can start.

My main questions:

1. What software should I use?
2. Is it worth it?
3. I've seen people saying some GPUs work better with passthrough than others. Is there any information how NVIDIA RTX 4060 works?
4. How are the kernel level anticheats? Specifically, GTA:O and Roblox.
5. Is there a post or other guide I can use for support?

Thanks for all the help, still learning linux, so far it's been great.

EDIT: Forgot to add my specs.
Linux mint 22
Intel i7-12700kf
z790
DDR4 32gb
NVIDIA RTX 4060
Separate SSD storage for the VM
