I’m trying to be able to dual boot into Steam OS or Windows but when I went to go back to Steam OS nothing happens. How do I fix this?

My CachyOS experience
Wanted to share my thougts of the distro. I'm a linux noob for sure as I installed garuda dragonized gaming as first experience two months back. It was super easy to use and had all necessary software out of the box. Only things I didn't like about it were the theme aestethics and how bloated the os was. Otherwise smooth ride all around and booted to windows only to do music composing, recording and mixing.
Week ago I decided to try cachyOS. Installation was super smooth and I didn't need to reinstall my games which was super convinient. Very soon after I saw first weird bugs that have become more problematic. Even though I've correct boot order set in the bios I cannot boot into OS about half the time. It tries to load it but after minute or two reboots the system and then I get in just fine. Much weirder thing is that sometimes when I boot into OS it doesn't accept the password I've set but when I reboot into the OS it works.
Anyone else have had similar problems? I like the theme cachy has but I'm thinking go back to garuda since it worked perfectly.

Medal of Honor - Allied Assault
Hi guys!
I have recently bought Medal of Honor - Allied Assault on GOG and I am trying to run it using Heroic Launcher, but the game crashes almost immediately after I start it. I have tried using OpenMoHAA, but I can't configure it properly (I have recently switched to Fedora from Windows).
Is there any way I could make this game run properly?

SMT V Vengeance refusing to start up on my Mint system. I have tried various different launch options, Proton versions, but nothing changes. This game works perfectly on my Steam Deck, so I really don't know what could be going wrong here.
Specs:
Ryzen 5 5600 X 4.65 GHz
64 GB DDR4 RAM
GeForce RTX 3050 8 GB
Will provide additional information if needed. Thank you in advance.

I love Linux but… I’m going back to Windows
I love Linux I really do. Most of the games works , mods work and so on heck I even managed to get Stalker GAMMA working! But here is the thing some games either don’t work or are quite broken or take an insane amount of fiddling around to get it somehow to work. To name just 2: Deadly Premonition and Akibas Trip Undead & Undressed. And yeah partial reason are Multiplayer games I simply can’t play anything with my friends because everything that they play won’t work on Linux like Rainbow Six Siege. Then there is also the occasional fear of getting one day suddenly banned from some game because they had a bad day and decided to ban Linux users. And I don’t want my account to get banned in which I have invested tons of hours and also a bit of money like Genshin Impact or Honkai and so on. And I’m also tired of fiddling around at all I wanna press play and be done with it and not swap around Proton versions because one doesn’t have FMVs or whatever. Or wait a few days because they suddenly broke Linux support again like The Finals. Now does that mean Linux sucks or anything? Hell no it’s a fantastic operating system and in the time I used it (around a year)I was genuinely happy. But as I stated my reasons it’s time for me to crawl back to Windows not because I like Windows but because of specific games, friends and honestly also laziness. One day I might return but for now it’s back into the Windows mines. Have a nice day everyone and I hope it was okay for me to share my story and reasons!

Another Linux noob leaves windows behind forever! :)
Hey everyone,
Apparently you guys are friendly over here! It's great to be here.
I finally made the switch. I'm 100% on linux now. After 30 years of windows, I decided that's it. I'm doing it. And I am so glad I did. I am now running Fedora 42 KDE Plasma, and everything is great.
I realised my reluctance to change was because of Apex Legends and Delta Force (you know, the anti-cheat that doesn't work anyway). I haven't played them now for months, and do you know what? I'm doing ok. There's plenty more games in the Steam!
So I just wanted to share my story in the hope that someone on the fence sees it, and decides to make the same decision.
Now I imagine many of you here are experts already. In fact I know many are, as when troubleshooting, I get brought here. It's how I found the place. Thanks for the help!
I'm just the new (linux) guy who you can look at and say "You don't know how lucky you have it boy!" and I get it. But I'm really am pissed off with windows and no matter what happens to this post, if one person sees it and decides, "screw it, I'm done with windows too" then I'll be happy.
With that in mind, and I am putting my neck out here, I am also tracking progress via YouTube, and would love it if anyone else is on the same journey, to join me..
I want to track the challenges we face from a newbie perspective. There are plenty of experts out there already and I really appreciate that support, but I want to capture the challenges for those who are not experts trying to make the switch.
Anyway, if you got this far in the post and are interested, pop over and say hi!
I'm a chilled english dude and my voice may put you to sleep, but that's ok too right?
If not, that's also ok, and sorry for wasting your time.
Thanks for reading. My friends call me Mo.

Logitech G Pro wheel
I've seen some say it's not greatly supported (the github rating repo and elsewhere) but haven't seen anyone actually write up that they've got a g pro wheel working on linux.
Anyone got one? Was it a pain to get running?

The Nvidia DX12 problem
Hey guys, I recently bought a new laptop with a RTX4050 and quickly found out about the ABYSMAL difference in performance the NVIDIA drivers have in Linux when compared to windows. Things got worse now because almost every new game is DX12 only, so it prompt me to ask 3 questions:
Is there anything I can do to solve that issue, maybe a temporary fix before a real solution appear? (I'm on arch btw)
Are those problems also a thing when using AMD GPUs?
For the ones that are more tech savvy out there, why it's so hard for the NVIDIA developers to fix that problem, it's been months since they recognize it, is this a technical thing or just lack of interest?

Cursor wont go to edge of the screen
Hey, I'm a fresh install of arch with kde plasma. I've tried age of empires 2 and marvel rivals and im having the issue on both.
Basically I my mouse cursor cant go within 1 or 2 cm of the actual window border on the right side and bottom. I can use the left and top tho. It feels like the cursor is locked into a smaller resolution if that makes sense.
I'm using proton experimental but have tried other versions and the game didnt launch properly
Intel i54460
RX 580 something
Cheers <3

Controller not working on some Fromsoftware titles
I'm on steam flatpack on Arch with an KDE and an AMD GPU and CPU, on most tittles my wired Xbox controller works fine. But on Nightrein and Armored Core my controller input is not working . On Sekiro and Elden Ring it works fine and can even swithc to keyboard and mouse without problem mid game. I have tried enabling and disabling steam input, restarting game and Steam, launching from Big Picture Mode.
As far as I can tell these games share the same settings (Steam input disabled vs not. proton version, launch commands, steam overlay disabled) Could not find any reports issues on protondb. Anyone have any ideas to solve this issue?

NVIDIA dGPU completely *dissappearing* out of nowhere and leaving me unable to launch games
Either after resuming from a long suspend, or after some time of playing and when I close and try to reopen the game, the game will never show up and when I check out in Steam, it shows that the game is "already running" and it gets completely stuck there, and the NVIDIA GPU does not even appear anymore on nvtop, as if it was somehow "disconnected", therefore leaving me completely unable to play. Logging out and in doesn't fix the issue, I have to fully shutdown and boot up again to get NVIDIA graphics working again. At this point, it's quite frustrating due to how so often this happens.
Any fixes? Thank you in advance.
PD: I'm on a laptop, integrated Radeon Graphics (iGPU) and RTX 3050 (dGPU).
