I have an oculus quest 2 that my brother got a couple years ago and my friends started asking me to play vrchat and some other games that would be nice to have this setup for

But sometimes when I open steam link on my quest (I already downloaded steamvr on my pc) and select the game is want to play (right now it i just have just vrchat) once im actually loaded into the game my quest gets a popup saying "waiting" and on my laptop the game is frozen, this doesnt happen when I play the pc version and doesnt always happen when I do it with pcvr.

My specs are: cpu: 10400f gpu: 3070 ram: 16gb distro: latest fedora version and drivers and other stuff were setup a while ago (I play other games just fine) Vrchat is set to the medium graphics preset AFAIK everything that would effect this should be on the latest version (no betas)

does anybody know how to solve this or if there are alternatives that are easier to setup/ dont have this problem on linux?

Fedora Workstation 43 (all updated), Gnome
RTX 4060 8 GB (yeah, not a gaming beast, but TDA should at least run, and it did on Win11)
Nvidia 580 driver (latest)
Tried different proton versions
Doom TDA aren't starting, crashing right after showing Bethesha/ID logos and that epilepsy warning. The only post I found here is about laptop and GPU/APU issue, but I'm on desktop 4060 and Ryzen 5500 without graphics. My idle VRAM usage seems to be something like 2gbs, so when the game is trying to allocate VRAM it's eating 6gbs and then crashes bc VRAM is over. 8 gbs is stated as minimum in requirements. and it worked on Windows, so can I do anything to launch it?

I am looking at once again giving Linux a try and making the switch on my desktop (if I can find alternatives to borked games) but I’ve also been trying out recording games for some projects that I am starting.

I know that some games still have weird quirks and compatibility issues when being run on Linux. Would this be heightened with the addition of OBS recording in the background, or would it be relatively the same.

I’d be thinking of using either Fedora (maybe nobara), Cachy, or Bazzite (least likely).

So, for the past 3 months I have been using debian 13 on my Lenovo T450 i5-5300u. I mostly use it for University work and small indie games like Dead Cells, Superhot, cuphead ect.Will i get better performance or battery life in other distros like base Fedora, Or base arch.FYI I am on most minimally possible xfce, I am also open to other de and wayland if stable for daily use.I dont mind tinkering to some extent either.

I am using cachyOS with a 5070 and a 10850k

I want to live stream myself playing some games for my girlfriend and on windows I would just use vesktop and this would work on Linux but because of their lack of NVENC support it’s very choppy or if not choppy it’s very pixelated.

If you have any ideas on how I can solve my issue as this is the last thing keeping me on windows, I am not a Linux beginner but I’m not advanced either

I have an annoying problem where the vibration on my XBox One Elite controller cuts out after exactly 1 sec. Everything else I've found online issues related to bluetooth or no rumble AT ALL, which isn't the case here.

It's really obvious in Rocket League. Holding boost should have constant vibration until you either release the button or boost runs out, but for me it just stops after exactly 1sec. Jumping or landing somehow resets (even while holding boost) so it vibrates again and cuts off at exactly 1sec. There's no setting to control this in-game. Constant vibration like this isn't exactly common in games so I don't have another way to test it.

Running Bazzite, all updated. Gaming through Steam. I'm using Solaar and Piper for mouse configuration though I'm pretty sure they don't affect controllers. Tried a friend's controller of the same model and it does the same thing. Bluetooth or wired doesn't matter. I've got Windows 10 on another drive and the controller works perfectly as expected there, so it's not a hardware or firmware issue.

Anyone know what could be the issue?

I doubt it's related, but since installing Bazzite a few months back I've always had 2 brief error messages like "TOCBLOCK #### corrupted" (where #### always changes after restart), which I wasn't able to find an explanation or answer for so I ignore it.

Basically the title. It seems to happen when I'm doing something like streaming a video in a vc. Part of me wonders if it's some kind of side effect of that new thing they implemented on windows, where the app idles if youre idle for too long, since I tend to be afk when streaming videos.

If it's not that, then its likely related to using hardware acceleration. Unfortunately, not using hardware acceleration isnt really an option, since it severely degrades the quality of the aforementioned streams.

Rn I'm going to test to see if it still happens with equibop, but otherwise I was wondering if anyone else has had this issue, and if they've been able to address it.

Hey, does anyone here use Geforce Now and manage to send Steam Input to gfnow app? I've seen threads about adding gfnow as a non-Steam game so that you can map additional buttons on the controller and use the gyro. However, Steam input doesn't work at all for me then.
Maybe someone knows how this is solved on Steam Deck? I'm almost sure there's no problem with additional buttons.
Controller I use is flydigi vader 4 pro, Steam normally detects it as Vader 4 pro.

I’ve been slowly moving my system away from Windows and over to Linux, but one of the things that held me back was RGB control.

After going through the process myself installing linux, I decided automate the whole process into a small script that prepares a Linux system for OpenRGB .

The script checks the required kernel parameter, installs dependencies, detects hardware, enables the I²C subsystem, and fixes permissions

I wanted to make the process easier for myself in the future, but it turned into a project to assist all distros.

Repo: https://github.com/moronigomez/OpenRGB_Prep.sh

I welcome all feedback,

I used Fedora for years (12) until my last laptop broke. I switched to using Kashi just to test it. Quickly became a fan. Is there realistically anything gaming wise that is different between the two. I haven't noticed anything, Hardware compatibility frame rates everything seems to be nice. Just wanting to see what other people's thoughts on this was.

I just released my first open-source project: ds4linux

I originally started it because I couldn't get native PlayStation button prompts working in Detroit: Become Human with my DualSense. But ironically, it works for other games and not on Detroit (It needs a different implementation for Detroit which I have been unable to make a hybrid solution yet.)

I tested it on other games like Hades and The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe, and it works flawlessly. It completely hides the real controller and makes the game see a virtual DualShock 4 with a spoofed MAC address.

Since this is my first community project, I'd love some feedback. If you've been struggling to get PlayStation prompts in specific games, try running this daemon before you launch Steam and let me know if it helps.

I've tried hotfix, experimental, 10-9, and GE 10-10. All give the same behavior. I click play, steam recognizes the game as being launched for a moment, then nothing happens and the play button pops up again as if the game closed. I have yet to see anyone with this issue, and even see people with my same distro (EndeavourOS) saying it works first try with no tinkering. Very unsure how to proceed.
