Undervolt 2080Ti LACT
Abit of a shameful ask but only do the to fact I saw someone mention how something works with 3000+ at one point.
Does locking the max and using an offset to perform an undervolt still work properly with Turing cards?
Trying to keep temps a little lower. Id appreciate any advice. See the thing is in mangohud I can’t see my voltage so I wonder if I am missing a package or if that is just how Turing is. Cheers :)

PROBLEMA PRA CONECTAR UM JOYSTICK PS3 NO LINUX UBUNTU Bus 001 Device 010: ID 054c:05c4 Sony Corp. DualShock 4 [CUH-ZCT1x] VIA BLUETOOTH
Fala pessoal, to tentando fazer funcionar um joystick (Controle DualShock de PS3) no linux ubuntu. Porém acredito que estou com problema na configuração de Bluetooth. O controle funciona via cabo normalmente e até aparece o dispositivo quando digito "lsusb": Bus 001 Device 010: ID 054c:05c4 Sony Corp. DualShock 4 [CUH-ZCT1x] e consegui testar no jstest-gtk e na steam é reconhecido também (o unico problema foi o analógico direito estar invertido os controles de camera, mas acredito que isso seja configuravel), mas tudo isso via cabo.
Quando eu tento conectar o bluetooth ele não conecta, já tentei "instalando sudo apt install bluez bluez-tools joystick" e conectar manulamente no modulo do bluetooth "bluetoothctl", até aparece como Device 84:01:34:07:27:56 Wireless Controller mas tento conectar e diz "Não disponivel"

Sober High Ping/Latency Issue, i run Kubuntu latest release on Plasma (x11).
Hello, ive been trying to get roblox to work for a while, i found out about Sober, i got it to run but the "ping" in the game spikes insanely high it will randomly go from like 50 to 300 to like 2000 then back down again. I wondering if theirs any common fixes for this, ive tried the following but none them worked.
 - Running it through GEproton lastest relase (doesn't work, must run through Wine)
 - Checking internet, actual ping is fine but game doesn't think so
 - Adding Vulkan support for it
 - Trying different flags to make it run better

Specify and ID - Lutris
Playing on Linux is a gamechanger!
I just switched to Linux mint a couple of days ago and im still pretty new to all of this. I just finished playing Helldivers 2, a famously unoptimized game that is getting harder and harder to run. I have a Ryzen 5 3500X and a RX 6650 XT, and on Windows the game barely scratched 40fps with the lowest settings while pushing my cpu to 110%, but now thanks to Linux the CPU barely goes over 80% and the game barely leaves the 40fps mark with the high setting! If you are thinking about switching to Linux with gaming in mind, please do it!
I still have a lot to learn, I like all the DIY environment, but it's pretty hard to figure out things sometimes

Win 11 and PopOS joint device
Hey all,
Hoping for some tips for someone looking to slowly move to Linux full time. I currently have a gaming PC setup with Windows 11, with a 512GB SSD for hosting my OS (Win11), and a 2TB SSD for my Steam games.
I was thinking of getting another internal 512GB SSD and putting PopOS on it, so I could boot to that and see how it goes as a full time thing.
Would I be able to use my Steam game files from the 2TB SSD and run Proton fine, or are there some tweaks I need to make? Kinda scared I'll do something silly and ruin my PC...
Any advice would be appreciated! ^

Error importing Lutris application module: cannot import name 'Image' from 'PIL' (unknown location)
While launching Lutris, I'm getting the following error:
Error importing Lutris application module: cannot import name 'Image' from 'PIL' (unknown location)I know I can resolve it by install pillow from pip as root.
sudo pip install pillowIs there a way to resolve this issue with user space installation of pillow, as pip recommends not to install pip packages with root privileges?
Thanks in Advance!

Running old Windows 95 game "not enough space in local heap"
Hello. I have spent now several days trying to get an old Windows 95 game called "Muumit piilosilla" (it is old Finnish point and click game about Moomins) to run on my Linux Mint. The game is an old multimedia CD ROM made with adobe macromedia director, if that is somehow useful information. The CD contains Windows and Mac versions. My machine has 8 GB RAM and the game is only 50 MB, so there should be plenty of RAM to go around.
I got it working inside a VirtualBox with XP, but the experience was not optimal. VirtualBox requires me to disable kvm from the terminal, adjust the window size to fit to the screen and other small annoyances, such as mounting the .iso file to the virtual machine from the host. I would like to have a simply a shortcut on the desktop so that my child would be able to start the game by herself.
By running it from wine, the game launches and is playable for about 10 seconds. As soon as the game launches, I got multiple errors in the terminal:
0114:err:local:LOCAL_GetBlock not enough space in local heap 06ff for 2056 bytesAnd after trying to play the game little bit the game crashes with pop up error:
Not enough memory to load '01DALEN.DXR'. Try turning off the memory cache in the Memory control panel.As the game is made with Macromedia Director, I think that that 01DALEN.DXR file is one of the game data files containing the game media.
Besides Wine, I have also tried Lutris, PlayOnLinux, DosBox, DosBox-X and Bottles. I get the same error and symptons on all the software, except for dosboxes I get error "Windows is required" or something like that.
I have tried to set Wine to run on Win95, 98, XP and XP-64 modes, but always the same error. I tried also fiddling with the settings on Lutris, but I have literally no idea what I am doing, as this is the first game I am trying to play on Linux with my child and I am also new with Linux overall. I switched to Linux as the support for Windows 10 has ended.
Any ideas? I have been chatting with ChatGPT, but all I am getting from it is these Wine commands that just lead to that heap error:
export WINEPREFIX="$HOME/.wine_game32" export WINEARCH=win32 winecfgThank you in advance! And sorry for grammar issues, I am not native english speaker.

Can anyone help me open an exe which opens another exe inside of Linux?
Hello, I have a bit of a weird situation.
On my Linux setup I have a Windows game that I want to play, but the way it was designed by the creator, you run an .exe which detects which version of machine/OS you have, which then runs another .exe that actually launches the game.
Directly launching the .exe for the 64-bit architecture of Windows does not work, even with the correct Wine version enabled.
Having said that, I'm stumped on how to make this game work. I can get the first .exe to launch, but then the second .exe which does not have Proton installed will crash immediately.
I have Lutris and Protontricks installed on my machine but I still can't seem to make it work properly. Can anyone help?
If you do have an answer please explain it simply because this is something I'm still struggling with.

Intel B580 cannot run two 4k monitors on Linux
I'm seeing an issue with the Intel Arc B580 in Linux, wherein it is not able to run two 4k monitors simultaneously.
I've tried this with both Arch Linux and Pop OS (with the latest and LTS kernels).
One monitor runs normally and while the other one is detected, there is nothing rendered on the screen.
Has anyone else faced this issue? What could I try to investigate this further?
Here's my config:
- Monitor 1 (3840 x 2160 resolution, 165hz) (connected to middle DP)
 - Monitor 2 (3840 x 2160 resolution, 144hz) (tried with both left/right DP or HDMI)
The same set up works flawlessly on Windows.

Wuthering Waves 120 FPS on Linux
I have a Ryzen 5700X and an RX 9060 XT. On Windows 10, I have a 120 FPS limit set, but on Linux I am capped at 60 FPS. Also, a notification appears in the settings saying that the device is overloaded, as if it can't figure out what components I have.
Here's what I've tried:
- Different versions of Proton (Experimental, GE, CachyOS).
- Different Steam installation types (native, Flatpak).
- Different distributions (Debian 13 with backports, Endeavour OS).
- Different launch options.
All systems are clean, fresh install.
Some time ago tested game with Ryzen 3600 and Nvidia GTX 1660, in-game load analyser worked fine.
Any advice?

Saints Row: The Third (2011) - PC Gameplay / High Setting / Radeon RX 6600 XT / Linux
Buttons in games are displayed with Cyrillic letters if launched with Cyrillic layout - is it possible to force only Latin letters?
So, I have two keyboard layouts, one is English, another one is Ukrainian, the problem is - that when I launch the game with Ukrainian keyboard - it also changes the action buttons in the game, which is not a bug, but more of intended feature, and I get it, the problem is - I want to ONLY see Latin letters, not CYRILIC_SHORTI instead of letter Q, so, is it possible to somehow disable this letter switch?
Distribution: Fedora Workstation 42
 Steam: Steam RPM Fusion version, non-flatpak
 DE: GNOME 48

Need help finding game save locations on Linux (just switched from Windows)
So I’m currently going through and adding all the games I had installed on an external drive. I decided to use Faugus Launcher after some trial and error with other launchers, and I’ve managed to get about two thirds of my games working so far. One of them is Clair Obscure: Expedition 33.
I’ve got a bunch of old save files for these games and was wondering if I can just drop them into the new save folders, but I’m having trouble even finding where those folders are located. I seriously have no clue where to look.
I literally just switched from Windows today, and I’m already knee deep in frustration, from setting up Wine prefixes to Avowed (a separate game) throwing fatal error pop-ups at me, to somehow breaking the bottles application lmaooo IDEK how I did that but here we are. I’ve been on Windows for like 20 years. I was that gamer kid since day one, but I’m just so done with Windows. I almost didn’t make the switch because so many of the games I play use anti-cheat, but I figured I had to rip the band-aid off at some point.
Anyway, enough lore drop. I’m just trying to figure out where to look for game save files on Linux (I’m using Nobara, for reference). My naive 'Windows brained' self clearly didn’t do enough research. Please forgive me for my sins!

I'm loving Zorin OS 18
I've tried countless distros. I've been testing Linux distros for many years on an old PC (i7 3770 + Rx 5700). I would test them for a couple months at best, then go back to installing windows because of incompatibility issues, crashes, apps not working and generally just not a very user friendly or beginner friendly experience. My favorite ones were Pop and Opensuse for performance. But they would give me issues.
Zorin OS has been under my radar for some years but I never got to test it. I regret not doing so.
The experience is flawless. Everything JUST WORKS OUT OF THE BOX. I have not used the terminal, not once. Everything is easy to install, games run extremely smoothly (I have doubled the fps I had on this system while using windows).
I think this is it. I really think Zorin is the OS windows users can safely install without worrying about facing the usual "problems" new users meet with Linux. There is barely any learning curve involved.
10/10.
