Insurgency 1 (native) Linux fix?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 30. November 2025 - 12:43

The native Linux version of Insurgency needed some sort of a fix to launch (I think it was one of the glibc issues, where you had to replace/link something with your system library version). But I can't find the fix anymore, since New World Interactive's forums have been taken down.

Does anyone remember what you had to do?

(Using Steam Linux Runtime doesn't work. I'm aware that the game runs with Proton, but I would prefer the native version.)

Isn't Linux the Best OS For Ai ? Then Why Don't AMD and NVIDIA Rewrite Their Frame Gen for OpenGL On Linux ? So that we Linux Users Could Use Them In Any Of The GL Games.

Linux Might Be The Best For Ai But Why ?

This is my reasoning for this part. I think Linux is probably the best OS For Ai because all the major Ai Chatbots are hosted on Linux based operating system.

Examples Including: ChatGPT, Gemini

Gaming On Linux

The Linux Gaming have been wildly improved over the last few years (Thanks to proton and Mesa Drivers). But we Linux Users have been lacking a real thing in gaming. Frame Generation I mean yeah we do have Frame Generation Via Proton but it is still limited to those games which truly supports it (i.e: Cyberpunk 2077), And just like AMD's Adrenalin Drivers On Windows, Which by the way supports the Frame Generation in all the DX12 Games, Why Can't both AMD and NVIDIA Rewrite the Frame Generation For OpenGL or Vulkan (Which is even more lower level than GL). This is all i want to talk to you all about in the comment section! Because i would really like to have Frame Generation on Linux if it's better for AI Compared to Windows.

Thanks For Reading - Hope You Have A Good Day 😀

Anyone got adobe working on Linux

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 30. November 2025 - 11:59

Given this is a gaming sub, ig this will be the right place.

So, adobe acrobat is the only windows software i need sometimes to validate signature. I tried alternatives but nothing worked.

Installation with wine says "interrupted", I couldn't find anything on lutris either.

So, share the method if someone got new version of Adobe running.

Ninja Gaiden 4 not booting

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 30. November 2025 - 11:57

I have had the game running in the past but recently the game will simply boot for a few seconds before closing again right away. anyone else had this issue?

Have tried multiple different proton versions (Hotfix, Experimental etc.) SteamDeck=1 launch command. verifying integrity of game files and doing a clean reinstall and at best it might work for a bit before crashing.

Using a Ryzen 5 7600 X3D and a RX 9070 XT.

Asus tuf f15 fan control

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 30. November 2025 - 11:19

Hey everyone, I recently switched from windows to fedora (my first Linux install), I noticed that my pc was always hot, so I installed mission center and noticed that the fans were spinning at 3600 rpm, which it saw as 100% even though on windows it used to go well over 5000 rpm when I watched it on ghelper.

I tried a lot of solutions before coming here, asusctl, nbfc, sensors, but I can’t manually change the speed, I couldn’t in windows either, the problem is that it somehow doesn’t register the max speed of my fans properly.

Does anyone know a way I could fix that or some more details I should include ?

Proton selection in Steam

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 30. November 2025 - 11:06

Which proton version, if any, will be used for games on steam when no specific Proton version is set?

I'm no expert but i assume, that steam will ALWAYS use proton for any non-native games?

Gladly for most of my games i don't have to tinker with proton versions at all, because the games run flawless anyways.

Explain Wine-GE VS GEProton to me like I’m 5

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 30. November 2025 - 10:50

I understand that Wine-GE is deprecated and that GEProton uses uwu. But why do some games run only under Wine-GE and not GEProton?

Immortals Fenyx Rising stuck in slow-motion on Linux despite normal (60) FPS

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 30. November 2025 - 10:24

I’m having a really strange issue with Immortals Fenyx Rising on Linux.

The game runs at 60+ FPS, GPU is in P0, CPU boosts normally, but the entire game plays in slow-motion — animations, physics, everything. FPS is smooth but the game speed is slowed down.

The weird part: This started right after I connected an external 60Hz HDMI monitor. Even after unplugging it, the slow-motion never went away. Although I'm quite certain this is coincidental as it does not make sense that the issue would start occurring just because of plugging an external monitor in.

Since then, I’ve tried:

Running the game on Lutris (Wine-GE) and Steam (Proton Experimental)

Fresh Wine/Proton prefixes

Fresh Ubisoft Connect install

Fully redownloaded the game

Even copied a known-good install from my Steam Deck

Multiple kernels (CachyOS, Liquorix)

Completely reinstalled the OS

Ensured the GPU/CPU/EDID are all normal

No matter what I do, the game is always in slow-motion on this laptop — but runs perfectly on my Steam Deck.

I spent almost 5 hours battling this away with ChatGPT and have tried everything it suggested but to no avail.

Any pointers would be much appreciated!

I'm using CachyOS on a ROG Strix G17, RTX 3050 4GB, Ryzen 7-4800H

TL;DR: Immortals Fenyx Rising on Linux runs at normal FPS but the game speed is slow-motion. Fresh OS, fresh prefixes, fresh game files. still slow. Works fine on Steam Deck.

Weird sizing issue with Rockstar Launcher

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 30. November 2025 - 10:11

I'm trying to play RDR2 for the first time on CachyOS. It's asking me to install the Rockstar launcher however some strabge things have occured. - it first input a windows C drive location even though I'm running pure cachyOS - Selecting my host drive and a location says only 15GB is free when that's clearly wrong. - it only lists C and Z drives even though I have 3 drives.

What could be causing it his, is it anything I need to be concerned about and why does it say I only have 15GB free when I clearly have more.

Can VM / Emulation be used under linux for windows games that needs them (anticheat?)

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 30. November 2025 - 09:17

So I was wondering, I haven't tried linux gaming for years and years now, but if it was possible to perfectly emulate / VM a windows 10 or w/e install under linux for games that just won't want to work

Be it they are

1) incompatible (I assume proton or w/e can do this)

or what I expect to be an issue

2) expects windows for anti-cheat reasons (all the big shooters and etc.)

likely with a bypass or something of a sort for the second one, but is it doable at all or is that just something that I would HAVE to dual boot to use?

Recent adaptive sync stuttering/frame drops

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 30. November 2025 - 08:58

I'm using CachyOS and I've been getting lots of stuttering recently (every like five seconds there's a huge frame spike) with adaptive sync enabled, in a variety of games (duckov, also master duel right now) both in native wayland and xwayland. I'm on an OLED Monitor, and 7900XT gpu and 7800X3D cpu. My monitor is 175hz and I've set a 175fps cap in mangohud (global enable). Turning that off didn't really fix it. When i turned on vsync in duckov, the stuttering mostly stopped, except when opening a menu, then there's always a pretty strong stutter. I also have a second monitor that's 1080p 144hz, capped in kde to 100hz for idle power reasons. It's also causing issues with full screen videos in a browser, where there's often a heavy stutter when hovering my mouse from the video on the left screen to my other monitor. For now I've just disabled adaptive sync entirely. I tried disabling mangohud but it didn't fix it, at least in duckov.

5070 Ti getting throttled by SW power cap

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 30. November 2025 - 07:38

I just switched to Linux and was running Cyberpunk to test things out, and I noticed in LACT that once I start running it, I’m basically always being throttled by SW power cap. The power cap in LACT and NVIDIA Settings is displayed as 300 W, but in Cyberpunk I’m only ever seeing 230 W max. This is running the 580.105.08 driver on Arch. Is there any way to solve this, or is this even a problem at all?
