Hi all,

I'm attempting to migrate my games over to Faugus Launcher for reasons, but I also run some applications through Lutris that require certain versions of WINE, I notice I can't get WINE set up on Faugus, only Proton. Is there some kind of work around that I'm too stupid to see?

Thanks in advance.

After three years of pop os gaming and fails it was time to try a different distro so I went with Garuda Dr46mized KDE gaming edition and didn't take long for to fall in love with the new interface. So Garuda is my new home for gaming on Linux. Garuda runs well on my hp 15" gaming laptop no issues with the install no issues with the games I've got on it every runs fine. If there is any recommendations for custom kernals for Garuda let me plz let me know

I see that a lot of people have had this problem. I tried the suggestions I could find and.... nothing. All of this happened when I decided to try Lutris and installed it. Since then, I get this error and my Epic store games on Heroic Launcher won't run.

Got into pc gaming 1.5 years with a steam deck added a gaming pc running windows. In last year and a half I went from knowing almost nothing about anything computer to building my first pc and now running a full home sever starting with Ubuntu server then moving to promox. Moving my gaming setup to Linux only made sense. Went with Manjaro Gnome ( a major selling point being AUR) Any tips of tricks for a Linux desktop noob?Quality of life settings? Must have repos? I'm decent with Linux at this point but ease of use on my daily driver while maintaining privacy is a pretty big thing for me. Ryzen 7500f cpu and 7800xt gpu.

Friend of mine is trying to launch Palworld on Linux Mint, experiences a complete OS crash every time, and only on this game. Have tried different Proton versions including GE as well as launch options like DXVK_FILTER_DEVICE_NAME, etc.

DX11 or DX12 both cause these full OS crashes, launching with -vulkan in the launch options causes an Unreal Engine crash instead. Any solutions or suggestions?

There are no crash reports generated anywhere when this happens. The only exception is launching with -vulkan which returns:

Unable to launch with RHI 'VulkanRHI' since the project is not configured to support it

We have followed several online guides and other similar issues including using ProtonDB. Interestingly nobody else is reporting the OS crash/restart issue. Additionally, another user in our group also installed Linux Mint and was able to get the game to run, albeit slightly different hardware. This is the only game on friend's computer that suffers from this crash, there are no obvious hardware issues that would result in this on launch as far as we can tell. There is about a 10 second gap during which the game appears as a black screen, Steam Overlay starts, and the OS dies.

Cinnamon 6.4.8 Mint 22.2

CPU = Ryzen 5600

GPU = AMD 6900 XT

I have a brand new system with a new Linux Mint 22 install. I had Steam tinker launcher installed on my previous system but am trying to get it set up again. I am trying to compile yad following the myriad of instructions I used previously, and found all over reddit and the internet at large. However this time I'm recieving and error I have not been able to pinpoint.

When I run autoreconf -ivf && intltoolize
I get ERROR: 'IT_PROG_INTLTOOL' must appear in configure.ac for intltool to work.

Itltool is installed, and reinstalled. Perhaps my google-fu is weak, but I've not been able to find a solution. Any suggestions?

Just thought I should share this. Got the annoying GUI crash dialog pop up everyone else has gotten. Entered the code below and it worked. No more pop ups.

How do I disable the GUI crash dialog?

Wine includes a GUI crash dialog that is turned on by default. Users of apps that work despite a background crash may find the GUI dialog annoying, and in some cases the dialog itself has been reported to prevent an app from working.

The easiest way to disable the crash dialog is with winetricks:

sh winetricks nocrashdialog

If you prefer to do it manually, copy the following key to a text editor:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wine\WineDbg] "ShowCrashDialog"=dword:00000000

Save the file with a .reg extension (e.g. crashdialog.reg), then apply it with regedit:

wine regedit crashdialog.reg

(You may need to specify the full path to the file, depending on where you saved it.)

To turn the GUI crash dialog back on, change 00000000 to 00000001 and reapply.

These changes can also be made by simply running regedit and adding/changing the appropriate key the point-and-click way.

Hi guys. I've been gaming on Linux for 3 years now, started with PopOS the first year then moved to EndeavourOS and stayed there until now.

During my time, I've always ran full-blown DEs: GNOME with PopOS (cosmic wasn't a thing back then) and KDE now on Endeavour.

I've grown some interest lately on Waybar compositors (Hyprland, Niri ...) and Quickshell configs and ricing them. My experience with DEs has been 99% perfect, but I'm worried that switching to those options might bring some gaming related headaches along the way. So

To the ones using them, have you had any problems with gaming?
Could I use my current KDE installation, install Niri for example and change between sessions within SDDM if I have any problems?
Do I have to consider anything while using them?

My rig is full AMD, if that matters

Nothing special was really needed. All I had to do was mount the ISO, setup a Bottle for it (Just the default gaming one) and away I went.

This isn't using any wrappers or workarounds. I can also run it fullscreen perfectly too but I ran it in a Wine Virtual desktop here to show you it with all the info.

The only thing that does not work is MIDI music sadly, but the sounds work perfectly.

No glitches, no slowdowns, no weird colours. It runs beautifully.

Yes this is the original Doom95, one of the first ever Doom source ports made back in 1995 by ID Software themselves!

Yes I am aware that I can use the hundreds of other Linux native source ports, and I do... but I was curious and wanted to try out exactly how compatible Wine is compared to modern Windows... and Wine wins again! This usually has great trouble running in modern windows without using DirectX wrappers.

Hello good! I'm looking for an ambidextrous or left-handed mouse with 4 accessible buttons since I mainly play Deadlock and find it very convenient to use mouse skills. I currently have the Razer Nega Left Handed Edition mouse and it's not that I don't like it but it feels too heavy. I've been thinking about the Logitech G903 but it doesn't seem like the 4 side buttons are as accessible as on the G300s. Any recommendations? Thanks in advance!

Je suis entrain d'essayer d'installer un "demake" pour Helldivers 2.

Pour cela, il faut utiliser Reshade. J'ai donc chercher a l'installer.

Mais, quand je fait la commande d'éxécution (./reshade-linux.sh), le programme cherche des mises à jours (jusqu'à la, rien d'anormal) et il se stop, en disant "Error: Could not download version 6.6.2 of ReShade. Exiting." Puis le programme s'arrête net. Je ne peux pas donc l'installer sur mon jeu.

Et je n'ai trouvé aucunes infos sur quelqu'un qui aurais eu le même problème.

(je suis sous Ubuntu 24.04.3 LTS)

Hi r/linux_gaming!

I'm the dev behind Austraoxe. I posted a screenshot yesterday, but I wanted to show the actual 3D environment for the main menu.

Important Note: There is no UI yet (buttons/text). I am just showcasing the geometry and the lighting mood.

Since my daily driver is Ubuntu, I'm building this natively in Unreal Engine for Linux from day one. No DirectX wrappers here—this is pure Vulkan. Let me know what you think of the aesthetic!
