I played some games before the update and now it isn't working

Like in the ignite update you had to place some file related to easy-anticheat into the main game folder.

Any fixes are welcomed.

Respawn and EA have today released a major update for the popular battle royale shooter Apex Legends, which gives it an anti-cheat upgrade. Sadly it's causing issues for Steam Deck / Linux players.

so I am a linux beginner and I am trying to get warmane wotlk to work on fedora. I installed lutris and tried to install the game from Wow.exe from the folder included in torrent. Here is how it went:

1. I clicked install, everything looked good, but the game launched during the installation. I waited for some time, nothing was happening, so I turned the game off and after that lutris let me click finish installation. When I tried to run the game in lutris after that I got an error saying it did not install properly.

2. I removed the game and tried again. This time when the game launched during installation I tried logging in and entering the word. Everything worked perfectly, so this should mean that the game could run just fine right? but again, I turned it off, finished instalation and the same error as before.

3. so I tried again (always the same process), I wanted to screenshot the errors to help me troubleshoot the issue. but this time the game launched with a black screen only and lutris started to show a lot of errors like this: failed to open Z: \home\user\World of Warcraft 3.3.5a (no install)\dosdevices\z: \home\user.local\share\Trash\files\wotlk\dosdevices\z: \home\user.local\share\Trash\files\ .....

Since the name of the folder includes "no install" I thought it is not a regural file and the game will not work at all. But now that I was able to actually run the game during installation (even all of my addons loaded too) I am just very confused. Does anyone know how to install this game properly please?

This is all post 64-bit update btw. I've been playing TF2 using KDE Plasma on X11 with an RTX 2070 super and proprietary drivers launching the game with Legacy OpenGL, no launch options. This was the only way the game worked with no issues as using NVIDIA didn't work on Wayland for me.

I had then switched to an AMD GPU, RX 6700 XT, and just went back into my Arch install, uninstalled nvidia drivers, installed AMD drivers, started Wayland as it worked this time and was able to play TF2 both the normal launch option and the OpenGL one. All of this is on a flatpak install of Steam.

I then have made a fresh install of Arch with the AMD GPU, installing Steam using pacman this time, but now it started crashing everytime before I could receive client information. Sometimes when restarting the game it all worked flawlessly, can join casual games, use the map command but would not work again after another restart and I can't figure out why it randomly decided to work at moments when I haven't changed anything at all. Downloaded the flatpak version of steam again but no success to launch TF2.

Afterwards, I tried installing the NVIDIA GPU again then the AMD GPU hoping it would somehow bring me back to how it was at the beginning to no success. Then made a fresh Arch install with the NVIDIA GPU, then installing the AMD GPU again, no success. Final attempt was copying everything that seemed relevant in my bash_history from the working install and making a fresh install again, NVIDIA GPU first, AMD GPU after, no success.

Countless other methods have been attempted by me to no success after 2 days of trying from morning to evening, also searching for a bunch of potential problems and looking for people with similar problems but I just can't come to a solution.

I just hope someone out there knows a fix or maybe I just have to wait for TF2 or Valve to do something idk.

So I downloaded pop_os a week ago and been struggling to learn but I feel pretty confident playing games and fixing any problems.

But I still have this common problem that I can't seem to figure out.

Sometimes in games it will just freeze the whole PC and I have to hard reset my PC.

Example is elden ring I got in the game and just kept freezing randomly. Then it randomly stopped and I played for about a hour before it froze my whole PC this is with I feel any game.

And also how do I get out of these freezes like this? I know Ctrl alt f3 bring me to a menu where I can kill the process but idk what the process is called and half the time it doesn't show cause the whole PC is frozen.

Considering doing a full switch from Windows 11 to Linux after all the stuff going on with Windows sucking so much.

What's the actual reality of gaming on Linux, both through launchers like Steam and emulators. Is there going to be a performance difference in any way or will it mostly just be the same?

Is there currently any way to play games like fortnite that don't work on Linux on Linux somehow like on a Windows VM?

I've heard this controller works out of the box but I can only get it to work if I set it to Android mode. If I set it to Xbox/PC mode Linux recognises that an Xbox controller is connected by USB but nothing happens when I try to use it. What's going on?

The latest monthly Humble Choice bundle is up and it looks like another great package of games for you to get cheap.

I've been using BTRFS for years before I completely switched over to Linux from windows as there was a BTRFS driver for windows. I've been windows free for about 3 years now and finally have the download speed to really fill my HDD. What's the best configuration for speed and maximum storage? I've read forced compression is a no-go but I want to hear everyone's opinion.

I have a steam deck and while this sounds silly I am trying to mod among us. The issue is I can't find linux mod files only windows. I am trying to avoid spending $100 to install a new 1tb ssd and doing a fresh windows install. While it would be really cool to do I would like to tackle that at a later date when i want to take on the task of doing sims 4 with all the cc and mods. Is there an actual way to acheieve this or am i asking for something the steam deck cant do?

Like the title says, Hades II (Platinum on ProtonDB) is giving me this error in the logs when I try running it before crashing instantly on launch.

X Error of failed request: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes) Major opcode of failed request: 149 () Minor opcode of failed request: 4 Serial number of failed request: 639 Current serial number in output stream: 642

I've tried every version of Proton, including bleeding edge. I don't know how to read/diagnose X errors. What else can I do?

Thank you!

(ps. sorry about the preview image I don't believe there's a way to remove it)

Valve have released the latest stable update to the Steam Client today for PC and Steam Deck, which fixes a whole lot of issues.

I'm having this annoyance with Wayland where if I run a game inside one workspace and then I switch to another one, even though I can still hear the game audio for most games, it gets put into this weird suspended-mode where most loading and gameplay seems to freeze while the game is still running.

This is incredibly annoying at games such as Baldur's Gate 3 where if I move my character somewhere and switch workspaces (which puts the game in this weird suspension), upon me returning my companions who always follow me seem to arrive at the destination while my main character is still at the start, and only moves while the game is in focus. That, and the game just doesn't load while I'm in a different workspace if I'm in a loading screen.

This does happen with other games as well, and I've tried utilities such as gamescope or virtual desktop through bottles, but it doesn't help. On Xorg (tested with i3 and awesomewm), the game does run normally when I'm in a different workspace so I do believe this is an issue with Wayland.

I've tested this with both Sway and Hyprland and both wm's have the same behavior, and my distro is Arch.

Any ideas?

Planetiles is an absolute puzzle gem from developer MythicOwl (Hexologic, Harmony's Odyssey) that gives you a wonderful blending of gameplay ideas from Tetris and Dorfromantik but on a mini-planetary scale.

AMD 6700xt with 5900

Was running the latest version of Bazzite over hdmi to LGC1 and all was working correctly within game scope with both 4K120 and HDR. Now, game scope won’t detect my monitor is HDR capable and frequently flashes green at the top. When I switch to desktop mode, no issues with either HDR or the higher refresh rate options.

Hitting Early Access today is Nerobi, a gorgeous looking platforming adventure that blends in what the developer says are "several elements typical of a graphic adventure".
