I recently bought bo3 to play mods with friends and can't for the life of me get poast the black screen bug.
I've tried deleting the intro file.

I've tried diffrenet version of proton GE- Catchy Using QT-up

I've tried disabling extra sound devices using Pule config
I've tried verifying game files
I've tried LITERALLY everything and this dog water game will not boot past the intro.

Is there anything else I can try to get this dog water game to work?

Hey folks, finally switched my gaming PC back to Linux after dealing with the nightmare of windows 11 and I need some help.

I do not use Steam cloud because it’s very unreliable for me (my internet is rather slow and syncing fails very often) so I made a local backup of the save files for a couple of my games by moving the save folders to an external drive before installing Linux.

Now I’m trying to figure out how to restore my saves for Expedition 33 because I don’t know where the saves are stored at in Cachy and I can’t find them.

Any good ideas where to look?

This DKMS module allows you to overclock *some* USB devices by overriding their endpoints' bInterval values in the device descriptors – if the device physically allows you to poll it at higher frequency and will give you more data.

Back on Windows this (with the same method) was rather trivial using the "hidusbf" program. And ever since moving to Linux I was pretty annoyed I didn't have a similarly simple enough way of doing the same thing. So basically I guess I had no choice but to make one.

And the module allows doing that for theoretically any USB device without patching and re-compiling the kernel. Installation instructions are in the README (there's .deb, .rpm and AUR packages):

https://github.com/p0358/usb_oc-dkms

So let me know what you think, and if you managed to overclock any gamepads or other devices, or want to try.

So I am fighting moving around. I try to move to the left (Press a) but it doesn't work. I then press the d button and then it moves. I press a again and it works. This has happened in a lot of matches and I don't know where to start, to troubleshoot it. I have lost some fights because of it. Should I switch to proton-ge?

I'm on ubuntu 25.10. Running proprietary NVIDIA drivers.

By "problematic" I mean high CPU usage in the Xorg process and complete temporary freeze/stuttering of display. PeerTube video demonstrating the issue (when the issue is in full effect, the cursor movement doesn't even seem to get captured): https://diode.zone/w/errV1BgjJD1WR5Dzu2ozmN?start=20s

The effects are most noticeable in video playback and games (especially Valheim, for some reason). It's been a very frustrating endeavour for me to figure out what was causing the issue, that only cropped up after I switched from an Nvidia RTX 4070 Ti to a Radeon RX 9070 XT... oh the irony of team red's "superior" Linux support having the opposite effect. I'm not salty, you're salty. Honestly, I'm just glad I figured out what was causing the issues, discovering not only that I'm not the only one, but that there is a fix incoming (it's apparently already in the amd-drm-staging-next repo: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/agd5f/linux). That last part makes me grateful for the transparency of open source and the dedication of developers in fixing the issue -- no hate here!

I haven't tried amd-drm-next yet since the AUR package doesn't work for me (cloning the repo fails -- for other people too) and there is at least a mitigation available by changing the polling frequency on my mouse (Logitech G305) down to 500Hz (from 1000Hz) at most. YMMV on the mitigation -- let me know what works for you. Also, I can't reproduce the issue in Wayland, so that could be a potential fix for some.

Anyway, I guess I'm just putting it out there so the information is hopefully more easily found for the affected demographic.

Official freedesktop issue from Oct. 2024: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/amd/-/issues/3709

Some pre-emptive mind reading:

Q: Why don't you just use Wayland?

A: For MY PERSONAL USE CASE Wayland causes more issues than it solves. It mostly boils down to me using high DPI displays and native X apps via XWayland, I think... the scaling just looks awful for many apps, including games. I'm all ears if there are fixes to this, I just haven't seen enough potential benefit to bother digging much deeper than that.

Q: Lol, there's no way you're good enough at gaming to be able to realize a benefit from 1000Hz polling rate anyway. Uninstall.

A: What are you, every teammate I've ever had in CS2? Yeah, you're probably right though.

Q: Why not just go back to Nvidia? (surely this one will be less common :D)

A: No.

Hola gente.

Desde que actualice a linux mint 22.3, los juegos en steam no me reconocen la letra ñ al escribir, mientras que al navegar, escribir texto y otras cosas funciona perfectamente, el unico inconveniente los tengo en Steam. Es un poco molesto ya que uso la letra en rpgs y tf2

I really enjoy the Nioh games but wanted to try out the demo for Nioh 3 before purchasing since it was available.

I dual boot my computer between Arch Linux and Windows 11, depending on my mood or what I'm planning on playing. Some games require that I have to use Windows ( secure boot, TPM eg. Battlefield ) though most games run great in Linux now so when I can I play there.

I installed the Nioh 3 demo in Windows and no matter what changes I made to the game, lowering all settings down to the lowest, turning off Dynamic Resolution etc... the game just performed really badly. Unplayable bad. VRAM was between 7000 - 8500MB depending on what I turned on, resolution etc... I don't have screenshots of FPS but they were tanked. Graphics looked terrible too. I understand this isn't everyone's experience with the game but it was mine.

I installed the demo on Arch and with the exception of it taking over an hour to compile shaders, once the game loaded in, it was so smooth and looked and ran fantastic. I had to double check that I was reading the VRAM correctly in the games settings as it was sitting at 2,653MBs and with higher settings enabled than on Windows.

Everyone's mileage will vary of course but the difference between the two OS's on my build was massive. I just wish that all games were given Linux support because I think from my experience, most games I play on Linux play better there now than on Windows.

Nvidia RTX 3080

AMD Ryzen 9 3900x

32GB RAM

On the left, Arch Linux with higher advanced settings using much less VRAM than Windows 11 on the right with most settings either turned off or lowered to the lowest settings.

Yo everyone! I know how painful it is to find a working APK for the Minecraft Bedrock Launcher (mcpelauncher-ui) on Linux because most sites only have ARM versions for phones.

I finally found a source that worked for me:https://mcpelife.com/

Just look for the x86_64 (or x86) version there. If you use the standard ARM one, the launcher will give you an error. This site has the proper files to get the game running on Linux PCs.

Hope this saves you guys some time! Cheers.

Estou tendo problemas para rodar Foxhole no meu sistema Arch Linux. Estou rodando ele pelo Steam via Proton. Ele trava na tela de carregamento inicial, e às vezes eu tenho que desligar o computador para fechar a janela.

Especificações do computador:

• CPU: 12ª Geração Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-1255U
• GPU: Intel Iris Xe (integrada)
• RAM: 8GB
• SO: Arch Linux

A versão do Proton que estou usando é a Experimental, mas já tentei a versão 10.0-4 e o erro persistiu.

Well... it runs like shit but it runs like shit on all platforms so I wouldn't put a fault on proton. It's UE5 + the devs fault.

Used Proton Experimental with my RX 7800XT on CachyOS.

My game runs, CLEO and Modloader mods load and work in game, but I'm having problems with CustomSAA2/ModdedSAA and Moonloader.

Moonloader logs show that the scripts load successfully, but when I try their respective commands in SA:MP, they don't work.

CustomSAA2 works after renaming DSOUND.DLL > DSOUND.ASI, but in game, whenever I left click, it's like my cursor clicks on something behind the game window and the game loses focus. The game is still in fullscreen and not frozen, but also not registering any keyboard inputs.

ModdedSAA doesn't work at all. I put the files I want to modify in it, but when I launch the game, no changes happen.

I'm using Bottles as a wine GUI.
Runner soda-9.0-1
No dependencies (I'm not sure which ones to use).
Custom bottle configuration (when making a bottle).

If any further information is needed, feel free to let me know.

So I have a Corsair mouse, and were I on Windows or macOS, this would be done through iCue, but as I understand it's not possible here. If that's not possible, I'd love to know.

But I also suspect some alternative will be what I need.

I do know most DE allow you to switch left and right click, but that's not what I'm after. This particular gaming mouse has four side button, two for each side. M4 and M5 are on the left, I want them to be on the right, where my thumb actually is as a left handed user. Any help to reach this goal will be greatly appreciated.

Hi! I'm trying to play MH Wilds for the first time on Pop!OS Cosmic Environment, but when I get to the select language screen it freezes and I get this error log.

Does anyone know how to fix it?

I already tried with steam parameters and updating the libraries.

Hey, just wanted to know if someone else experiences some perceived loss of performance while playing Dota2 on zorinOS.

What i mean by "perceived" loss of performance is that my game runs fine between 180-210 fps, i've checked with the in-game counter and the steam overlay counter, but it just FEELS like 45-50 fps, not even 60, and that's only in Dota2.

It ran fine on Windows and even Arch, i don't really know the reason why it's not working properly in zorinOS.
