controller button mapping suddenly changed

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 18 Nov 2025 - 4:35pm

I need help with my Nacon GC100 controller. Until yesterday everything was working perfectly, but today the button mapping suddenly changed - for example, Y button now acts as A, and other buttons are similarly remapped.

The wrong mapping appears both in Steam and Heroic Launcher. I've already tried restarting my PC but it didn't change anything.

Does anyone know what could have happened? More importantly, how can I fix this?

I am on linux Mint 22.2

What are the best YouTube channels for Linux gaming?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 18 Nov 2025 - 3:41pm

Hey everyone,

I’ve been getting more into Linux gaming lately and I’d love some recommendations for good YouTube channels focused on it.

I’m especially interested in channels that cover things like:

  • Gaming on Linux in general
  • Proton / Steam Deck / Wine
  • Performance tweaks and optimizations
  • How to fix common issues with games on Linux
  • Tutorials for setting up launchers/tools (Lutris, Heroic, etc.)
  • Benchmarks and comparisons between Linux and Windows for games

What are your favorite creators for learning more about Linux gaming and keeping up with tips, tricks, and news?

Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

Where to start? Was thinking Bazzite or Steamos but not sure and don't know enough to make an informed decision. This is a spare machine as I have a nice high end desktop but not willing to take the plunge on it yet.

Have a large steam library and various other pc storefront libraries that I would like to be able to use as well but not mandatory.

Direction needed, please assist! Thanks!

To build, or not to build? (Wait for steam machine?- couch gaming)

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 18 Nov 2025 - 1:03pm

I’m caught in two minds, build a rig or wait for the steam machine release. I’m wanting a gaming rig for the living room, 65” 4k tv, atmos surround system.

Me and my partner both pc game, our pcs are in the same room. But more often than not we want to lounge on the sofa and game. Originally I thought about hdmi connectivity to my pc to the tv. But then she wouldn’t be able to play it if I’m playing it upstairs, or vice versa. So a dedicated machine makes sense. We both have large steam libraries.

And so the steam machine really does fit my use case. It’s claiming it’ll play 60fps 4k on most games which is sufficient, but I am skeptical it will achieve this. But tbf most games we play aren’t AAA anyway.

What would you do? I suppose it’s hard to say without the price tag and release date. Presumably building would be more expensive, but likely better performance.

[Lutris | GTA-4] Independence FM keeps skipping songs.

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 18 Nov 2025 - 12:53pm

Whenever I try to listen to my songs on Independence FM, after a few seconds it skips to a new song. How do I fix this? Installing older versions of GE-Proton either doesnt fix it at all or breaks independence fm directly

VRAM clock stuck at 96MHz on kernels newer than 6.6

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 18 Nov 2025 - 12:12pm

Hi, I need help with a problem. I have a Radeon RX 6900 XT and I’m using Fedora Linux. I think that since kernel 6.7, changes were made to DPM for RDNA2 cards, and that’s why I lose performance on kernels above 6.6 — my VRAM speed gets locked at 96 MHz. The issue doesn’t appear immediately after boot; it usually happens after some time of using the system or gaming.

When I’m using kernel 6.6, there’s no such issue. When I first installed Linux, someone told me to use kernel 6.6 so the problem wouldn’t appear, and they were right. But kernel 6.6 is old now, I don’t want to use it anymore, and I need help to fix this.

Regarding FSR4 for the Finals

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 18 Nov 2025 - 11:52am

I'm running on CachyOS with my 9070xt, and I seem to not eh able to run FSR4 I believe?

So far MangoHud doesn't seem to recognise it, not do the settings for FSR3 change (which is quite common), so my question is if anyone else has gotten FSR4 running for the Finals?

I am using 'Proton upgrade FSR4', unsure what else I could use really.
