Difficulty running games on Linux
I tried playing games like CS2 on my Linux system and it's running with extremely terrible performance. My PC is an i7 3770 and an RX 580, it has 8GB of RAM. I watched YouTube videos testing my setup and the performance is normally above 250 FPS, but it's not even running at 10 FPS. I recently installed Linux and I confess I'm new to it, could someone help me?

Help needed with FrostyModManager: it doesn't wanna boot under any circumstances in elementaryOS 8.1.
How do drivers work in Linux?
Good day! I'm new to Linux, so I don't know much about it (sorry for my ignorance). I've used Windows my whole life, and when you buy a new video card, you use its application to update the drivers to the latest versions. I understand that it works differently in Linux. How does it work? Do I need to download anything else? Thank you for your understanding.

Remote playing with Sunshine even when screen is shutdown or unplugged
What's the best way to lock the frame rate through Proton? In game, gamescope, mangohud or through DXVK/VKD3D?
Title.
I was playing Resident Evil 4 Remake and locked the FPS in game, but even with the fps stable, the timings was awful. What's the best way in your experience?
Gamescope:
gamescope -r <FPS> --
Mangohud:
fps_limit = <FPS>
DXVK:
DXVK_FRAME_RATE=<FPS>
VKD3D:
VKD3D_FRAME_RATE=<FPS>

Arc Raiders won't install EAC
Title says it all. Haven't been able to find a solution on Github or ProtonDB for why EAC won't install even tho game seems to run perfectly fine for others. Unsure what's up :/
I've tried
- Restarting steam
- Restarting computer
- Installing steam EasyAntiCheat runtime
- Verifying game file integrity
At this point, very unsure what the issue is, EAC will launch but won't do anything. Eventually closes and just get an error saying
"Failed to get process' path"

Getting a weird visual artifact on Cyberpunk 2077, any tips?
Howdy,
I'm getting a weird visual artifact on Cyberpunk 2077. When I stand still or move in a straight line (any direction) the graphics are perfect - but when i turn (i.e. with the mouse), the visuals stutter in an unusual way. The frame rate doesn't drop and stays at a stable 55ish. It looks like old frames are interleaved with new frames? It creating this really jarring, jitter that almost feels like cross-eyed or something.
Normally I would troubleshoot this myself, but I'm having a lot of trouble actually finding similar issues on google. The words I would use to describe this keep leading me to people who get that that ghosting effect from frame gen tools, or just straight up have unstable / low frame rates.
Hardware:
- GPU: RTX 5070 Ti
- CPU: Ryzen 7 9800x3d
- RAM: 32 GB DDR5
- Display: MSI G274QPF E2 (2560x1440, 180 Hz, Display Port)
Software:
- Distro: EndeavourOS
- Kernel: Linux 6.18.2-arch2-1
- Driver: nvidia-open-dkms 590.48.01-1
- CUDA 13.1
- Proton: proton-experimental
Game settings:
- VSync 180 hz
- res: 2560x1440
- fullscreen
- HDR: none
- Nvidia Reflex: on + boost
- res scaling: off
- frame gen: off
- ray tracing: ON, max
- motion blur: off
- everything else: ON, max
Turning on frame gen + motion blur smooths things out, but I'm pretty sure that's just post-processing literally blurring out the jitters (not actually fixing the bad frames). None of the other graphics or video settings seem to really effect the jitter.
Would really appreciate any advice here, I'm kind of running low on ideas.

Turn on wired controller on boot
Back when I used Linux Mint my wired xbox controller automatically turned on when I booted up my PC, but with openSUSE I have to manually pull out the cable and put it back on to turn it on. Is there a way to turn it on automatically on boot?

Wireless VR question
Hello, I just got a Quest 3S super cheap but when I tried to play wirelessly off my PC using Steam Link with SteamVR beta, ALVR, and WiVRn only Phasmophobia of the six I tried would run the game proper. With mic problems, but my friends and I have encountered mic problems a ton with that game so that's probably what that is at least.
The rest start up but then the stream dies as soon as it starts actually taxing the hardware, usually as soon as I've loaded past the main menu and into the game I'm playing. I've tried a number of things, including lowering graphical settings, increasing bandwith, messing with a bunch of random settings while troubleshooting across the three separate programs (ugh), and while there's still a lot of stuff to try but I frankly do not have any more time or energy for a deep dive on this when I can just use a cord instead.
So I guess my question is, is wireless VR being rough a general Linux thing and using an isolated Windows install on a different drive just for VR would save me the pain? Or is this just a wireless VR thing in general? I'm not thrilled at the prospect of using any version of Windows, but if VR folks around here have a setup that works great for them I'd love to hear about it.
Thanks in advance!
Edit: Hardware details might be important lol. Ryzen 7800X3D, Nvidia 4060, 32GB RAM, Bazzite Desktop using KDE Plasma. We have fiber with a high end router I was right next to while I was testing all this so while it might be related it's not a simple bad connection.

Outward freezing sometimes garuda OS
Hey everyone, how's it going?
I recently searched for some distros to play games on and came across Garuda OS. I installed it and have been playing on it, which has considerably improved performance in all games!
I'm having problems with Outward. I play with mods using R2MODMAN and it also runs wonderfully well in terms of performance.
Occasionally the game freezes, even though there's no lag, with the graphics settings at maximum. Sometimes it happens when I'm walking around the map, sometimes on the loading screen when I enter a new area, it's completely arbitrary.
I'd like some guidance on whether I need to add Steam ARGS, change distros, modify any installation... I don't understand much about how to debug in this case, so any information you need to help me, just tell me what to do and I'll provide it. Thanks in advance!

Minecraft bedrock edition in arch linux with hyprland, btw
Which "SteamOS" should I use?
Hello, I have a laptop that I would like to convert to a gaming environment like SteamOS.
I've been looking at various operating systems such as CachyOS Deckify, Bazzite, HoloISO and Chimera.
I wanted to know which system you recommend I use in my case.

Explain to me why distro matters so much in this community?
I’ve been a DevOps engineer for a while. I use Ubuntu because that’s the ecosystem I know. I installed Steam, drivers, and libraries, and everything just worked.
It was like 3 commands that you can ask ChatGPT for.
What am I missing here? Why is it that every time I see a post from this sub, you’re all selling some new unstable distro?

Game recommendations
I've always loved Linux, having started on Slackware way back in the day, but I've always loved gaming. So Linux has always been a part of my life but only on the sidelines: on work computers, laptops and servers. But never my "daily driver", as it were.
As Microsoft moves to axe a whole generation of completely viable computers so they can really cash in on data mining? I'm looking to make the transition. The problem? League of Legends.
Yeah I know it won't run on the penguin for many years to come if ever so I'm looking for recommendations on alternatives. Not just for Moba, but anything that's: Not fps 20-40 minute round/matches Multiplayer Not Minecraft (that's how I lose two hours)
The reason I love League is that I can play with my girls for 20-30 minutes, the match will end, and I can get back to being productive. I don't want to have to invest hours upon hours to enjoy the game. Also since I have the time management skills of a highly caffeinated sloth, having clear beginnings/endings to gameplay is key.
So, any suggestions?
