Cutscene flickering in Throne and Liberty with Frame Gen enabled

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 14 Jun 2025 - 9:13am

Helloooo! I'm going to be one of many who's gonna say that I'm trying out jumping ship from Windows to Linux. I'm not too green on Linux as I've used it for work but I've never really went using it as my gaming PC. I love what's been happening with the Steam Deck so decided to try it on my PC!

I'm running CachyOS as a distro and my hardware is a Ryzen 5800X with an RX6800. And I'm just enjoying trying to see what works and what doesn't. Noticing how frame gen is still, or it seems fresh on Linux.

Soo what I'm trying cause a friend wants me to try it is Throne and Liberty and that game has AMD frame gen. I noticed that on frame gen, cutscenes go crazy. Is this something that happens on other games, or is it just a Throne and Liberty thing? I tried different proton versions, and even tried Xwayland vs native Wayland. Would it be like even a DXVK thing?

Sorry for the questions! Just learning what makes what tick and where you would raise these issues. Cheers!

Is it possible to change proton gameID?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 14 Jun 2025 - 8:24am

I'm running into a bit of a problem, i use CachyOS with GNOME as my DE and the no game icon problem really bothered me, so i went for a fix and got it working perfectly on my steam library, however i still needed to do the same for Heroic, with some tweaking thinga seemed work, but that's when i had another issue. See, proton tries to assign a gameID even when you're not running a Steam title and when it doesn't find one, it will assign a zero to it ( e.g. steam_app_0 ) , because of that, trying to change the icon will have an effect in every title that uses Proton ans isn't a official Steam game ( Like games from Epic Store or GOG ) , besides that they work just fine. With this out of the way i wanted to ask if someone knows how to change the appID or even how to make so that Proton doesn't try to assign it

Logitech mouse not detecting in piper/solaar

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 14 Jun 2025 - 8:14am

Hey everyone!

I have recently installed kubuntu as dualboot and I've been trying to find out if I can switch over entirely. One problem that I run into is that piper or solaar can not identify my mouse. I am using a Logitech G502x wireless and a G815 wired keyboard.

temping@beastie:~$ lsusb Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub Bus 001 Device 002: ID 0b05:1872 ASUSTek Computer, Inc. AURA LED Controller Bus 001 Device 003: ID 0b05:185c ASUSTek Computer, Inc. Bluetooth Radio Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0003 Linux Foundation 3.0 root hub Bus 003 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub Bus 003 Device 002: ID 046d:c33f Logitech, Inc. G815 Mechanical Keyboard Bus 003 Device 003: ID 1532:0565 Razer USA, Ltd Razer BlackShark V2 HS 2.4 Bus 003 Device 004: ID 046d:c547 Logitech, Inc. USB Receiver Bus 004 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0003 Linux Foundation 3.0 root hub temping@beastie:~$ ratbagctl list warbling-mara: Logitech G815 RGB MECHANICAL GAMING KEYBOARD

As you can see, the keyboard gets identified very easily, but the mouse only shows up as USB Receiver. When I connect the mouse via usb everything works fine! But then what's the point of using a wireless mouse then!

I have tried piper, solaar, and logid and all of them have the same issue. Please help me with an alternative so that I can change my mouse's settings while it is also untethered

what the hell is going on????

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 14 Jun 2025 - 7:35am

i was trying to uninstall some stuff to install cyberpunk and i quickly noticed that my free space wasn't increasing and i noticed soon after that, that my "non-steam" bar in steam storage settings was going up every time i uninstalled a game.

i have windows dual booted and i know for a fact in the first place at least my non steam was the partition i made for extra windows space, and now it's doing this. i have no clue what to do outside of checking windows to see where my stuff is going.

[QUESTION] Halo Infinite Campaign Performance

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 14 Jun 2025 - 6:48am

I am running Halo Infinite using GE-Proton10-3.
Also tried Proton9-4, Hotfix, Experimental, GE-Proton9-27, GE-Proton9-4.

And these are the launch commands:

gamemoderun VKD3D_CONFIG=no_upload_hvv PROTON_ENABLE_NVAPI=1 PROTON_USE_EAC_LINUX=1 %command%

Multiplayer I am getting similar performance as I expect from Windows. However campaign the game only has half the performance I expected. Places where I am supposed to get 80-90fps I am getting only 55fps.
Also tried disabling resizable-BAR no luck.

I've gone through this sub-reddit with previous posts with issues with Halo Infinite.
I am curious if any new updates or solutions are there?

Specs:
Arch Linux 6.14.10 with KDE Plasma 6.3.5
Ryzen 7 5800x
32GB DDR4-3200
RTX3060 12G
MSI B550 Motherboard
Also the Game is running on NVMe SSD

KDEconnect is awesome

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 14 Jun 2025 - 5:11am

Been using Bazzite for a few days now, I'm absolutely in love with KDEconnect. It's worked so much better than Windows Phone Link, and being able to control media from my smartwatch is just the cherry on top. Now to figure out how to connect my PC to my laptop with Gsconnect...

Vram allocation for igpu?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 14 Jun 2025 - 4:34am

Im having a hard time figuring out how to allocate more of my ram as vram for my igpu. My current system has: 5500U with vega igpu, 20gb ram. I was hoping to get more than the default 512mb of vram, so if anyone knows how to increase that, it would be great :)
