I made a post two days ago mentioning how I had a million and one issues with OpenSUSE and CachyOS. A lot of rude comments insulting my intelligence or misinterpreting my statements. My entire post was removed so figured I would give an update in a new post.

Spent 2 hours last night just building Arch Linux instead of using a downstream distro of Arch. Got the performance I was expecting with World of Warcraft running at 250fps at 1440p on High settings.

Some people may have success with OpenSUSE or CachyOS but I didn't and there could be a multitude of factors. Simply building Arch from scratch allowed me to determined what I wanted exactly instead of the distro coming preloaded with a bunch of stuff. Point is, I got it working way faster and more stable in Arch compared to all the other distros.

So... No, I'm not a wintard who doesn't understand Linux and just rage quits.

GFL pc port just got released on steam and wanted to try it but the game opens and just crashes during loading. I tried using different protons even GE but no fix. Any tips how to fix that crashing?

Does anyone have experience with SteamOS or the "gaming" distros where it comes to having +4 gamepads? The experience is not at all smooth with Windows. I don't have room in my life for going from bad to worse.

I have an assortment of Gamepads, old Logitech's, GameSir Teganaria T3, and some other random no names who fake being a PS4, Switch or XBox controllers.

Nothing is going to change if you just keep dealing with it. Either stop supporting something you don't like or stop complaining about it. I don't particularly care if you use Windows or Linux or Mac or Temple OS... Just stop complaining about it when you can start the change you want to see in the world.

Did the collective world just lose its balls? Do people complain for complaints sake? My 10 yr old does this and I correct him too.

I want those games on Linux, I want all games on everything MAC, Linux, Windows. But if i just suck it up and take what's given nothing will change.

I was just annoyed by all the Windows complaining but then sucking it up and taking it in the next sentence.

Hi sub! I have a very specific question: as of today, is there a way to get FSR4 working in Stalker 2 but not on CachyOS? I'm checking ProtonDB constantly but the only mentions for the FSR4 are from CachyOS users and i'm on vanilla Arch. Have someone get it work already? If yes, could you please share your Proton version and launch arguments? Thanks!

EDIT: the gpu is 9070 XT

Using steam Proton to play GTA SA with the downgraded modded 1.0 i've tried versions 7-10 i have the WINEDLLOVERRIDES enabled. The intro videos will not play and default to this. From what I can gather it is codec related, but I have no clue how to do that through steams proton.

Title says it all really. Been rocking a DELL XPS 15 but has got some damage (mainly the hinge is broke and it’s more expensive to repair than to get a new one at this point, plus no warranty left).

That being said, what would be a good replacement in 2025? Eyeing a Thinkpad, though would prefer a slim model with a decent screen. Also those ASUS laptops seem decent, but not sure how’s the hardware support on Linux.

Mainly looking to have:\ 14/15” Display\ Added GPU\ Good keyboard\ Good battery life\ Excellent Linux support

Would rather use AMD, Ryzen 5/7/9 if applicable

Let me hear what you guys think!

I'm a Linux daily driver. I have a YouTube channel where I cover gaming. I was so impressed with the possibility of the new steam machine that I made two videos about it. This is part two where I go over specific questions I have Plus I talk about how some of my concerns were asuaged.

Hey everyone,
I’m finally thinking about switching from Windows to Linux and I’m stuck between CachyOS and Bazzite. My main uses are gaming and programming, and I’ve seen a ton of mixed opinions about both.

I’m comfortable with terminals and setting things up, I’m just worried about choosing something that ends up not working well for my workflow.

So if you daily-drive either one:

How stable has it been for you? Any issues with gaming (Steam, Proton, Lutris, etc.)? How is it for developers long-term? Which one would you pick for a Windows user moving over for the first time?

Would love to hear real experiences before I install anything. Thanks!

Honestly, I see more people hating on Linux users for being obnoxious elitists than the thing they're hating on.
