These Ucom controllers are really really old. They are from the Windows 7 era. It seems windows dropped support for them or broke the drivers. The right joystick on windows controls ABXY and the vibration motors don't work. You need to install drivers meant to fix em and an app that will add virtual drivers so that the controller is seen as an xbox controller with xinput instead of d-input.

The controller just works as plug play on Linux.

I will get a better controller in the future ( I have had Gamesir and Dinofire die) but these $5 ones are holding up fine

Does anyone know how to run cheat engines on Linux? PINCE, which is not a cheat engine is not easy to use. I scanned dead cells for 1502 cells and got over 15 results. I would like to use FLing from Windows

Info: Bazzite 41, KDE Plasma 6.3.1, Nvidia 570.86.16, GE-Proton10-4

I've been playing Titan Quest Anniversary Edition lately, and found an incredibly annoying issue which I cannot find referenced anywhere on the internet, despite my friend using Fedora 42 (KDE, AMD) also having the same issue.

The issue is that while TQAE is open it constantly grabs focus, meaning I cannot interact with any other windows for more than a frame, and can't alt+tab at all to windows on the same display. Does anyone know how I can fix this? The issue persists regardless of whether I'm using windowed, borderless or fullscreen.

Yes, strictly speaking I know GPU passthrough is possible in QEMU KVM (which just has the best performance for VMs on Linux), but for what I can find this only works if your system also has integrated graphics. I'm on a Ryzen 7 5700X so I don't have integrated graphics and only one GPU in my system. And I don't have space for another either.

I need this for 2 games that I play a lot that I have on the Microsoft store (I know) and I'm trying to prevent having to boot into Windows just to play those games.
So is it possible to play Microsoft store games with at least decent performance in a VM running on Linux?
I haven't switched to Linux yet but I'm already writing down everything I need for all other games and what not and hardware support, drivers and things like that. This is like the only thing I'm not sure about and just want to know what is really possible.
(hope it's okay to ask this question here)

Hey

You may have seen my post from a few days ago where I asked for help, because my FPS was very low in all games.

Turns out my PC was only using my iGPU, which was fixed by disabling secure boot in the BIOS.

I really appreciated you guys' help, thank you to everyone who helped me solve the issue.

I'm sorry but here is why, in the end, I still stopped gaming on Linux. Even if we fixed the perfs in 3d games.

1. Finding the issue and fixing it was a miserable experience, and was only possible because of the insights of SO many people from this subreddit, and the fact that I have some amount of technical knowledge. I know it's going to happen again later down the road, and I don't expect the whole world to help me fix it when that happens.

2. I play Brawlhalla a lot, and after 30min of playing, it suddenly drops to 10fps until I reboot the game. Not only that, but the game was actually more responsive when it ran on the iGPU for some reason, before all the tinkering. Now it's pretty laggy.

3. Sound glitches and crackling when my games are on, which I tried a lot of things to fix.

4. Steam games were actually pretty easy to run because of Proton but I don't even want to check how you run Windows games outside of Steam.

While Windows is a bloated insane pile of garbage, I did appreciate that everything worked out of the box when gaming.

Overall I really like Linux, but trying to game on that operating system is starting to make my experience miserable, so I will stop trying now. I will just keep Linux for daily use and software engineering.

Maybe I would have had a better experience with another computer or another distro than Mint Cinnamon, but it's not for me right now.

Hi all,

I have just finished building my new PC, including a 9060xt. I wanted to try Linux but have been told that some distros might not work with this GPU yet.

I am brand new to this and don't have a lot of time for the next month or so, so I would love to know if there's a beginner friendly distro that 'just works' (ish) for now.

I only really need Steam and a bit of basic web browsing right now. I don't particularly want to install Windows.

Bazzite look like an option - anyone running this with a 9060xt?

Or any other suggestions? Thanks+

I'm using lutris wine-ge-8. I'm on arch linux KDE X11 linux kernal. I have the game installed can play story mode just fine but when i try to go online it lets me get to the find session freeroam tab then starts loading the session, ends with error DR1001 and DR1002 anytime i try to connect. I have played nfs Heat online with no problems what so ever but anytime i try to play unbound i just get stuck with this issue non stop. Logs dont show anything to do with connectivity to the servers or anything. I am confused why i am having this issue but others were able to get it to work according to ProtonDB. If anyone has any kind of insight please let me know what I could do to fix this issue. If you need any more information let me know below. Thanks

So, this is what I want. I have a PC atm with a RTX 4070. I know that Linux isnt optimal for nVidia. I love to play on a tv, but Windows is a mess for it. Im into AAA games and emulation, So my thoughts is • M.2: Bazzite: Clean Steam experience. • M.2 Windows (for anticheat games etc) • SSD: Batocera for emulation. Gba to Cemu.

Can I expect a flawless experience if I switch to radeon? TV LG C2, HDMI 2.1, 4k120hz VRR HDR.

What is your thoughts?

AFAIK gamescope uses XWayland to run X apps on Wayland, and it doesn't support running Wayland apps without the --expose-wayland flag. But doesn't X not support HDR? What exactly is Gamescope doing that makes it support HDR in X?

so i was having trouble getting epic games to work on linux then i found this tutorial that uses a patched proton version and i was able to get both epic games launcher and rockstar launcher to work

when i click launch on gta v from epic games, it starts rockstar then rockstar shows this popup telling me to link epic games account to rockstar account

the problem is that i'am stuck on this screen
i tried visiting both epic games and rockstar account settings but i coul'd find a way to link both
epic games shows no option to link rockstar and rockstar shows no option to link epic games

system info:

arch linux: 6.15.3-zen1-1-zen cpu: Intel core i5-11400H gpu: Nvidia RTX 2050 ram: 8GB Proton version: GE-Proton9-25-GTA (trust me i have tried so many wine/proton versions) wm: sway version 1.11

my guess is that epic is unable to open urls?
i noticed this whenever epic or rockstar try to open urls (or wine/proton overall?)
this message appears when the account linking thing opens or when i manually click on my pfp -> account (in epic games), same thing for rockstar

i had the same issue when i tried other wine/proton versions, they can't open urls

I am using Mesa 25.1.1

I am on Ubuntu 24.0.4 i think

Here is what happens.

https://reddit.com/link/1lju8kh/video/5vkeosmgiz8f1/player

I press spacebar when it tells me to. The little pulsing glow effect stops when I press space, so the game is probably freezing. In my previous tests, it sits on that screen until I close it on steam.

I have been trying to fix this for 2 weeks now. Bethesda Support didn't help because "nO LiNuX sUpPoRt" and Steam won't let me refund it because of how much time I have spent trying to fix it. So here I am, screaming into the void of the internet to see if someone much better at Linux than I am can help me.

I am willing to change Linux distros to fix this.

I DO NOT WANT TO HAVE WASTED 70 DOLLARS PLEASE HELP

Hi fellow Linux gamers,

I am currently on a intel 5070 NVIDIA machine running Ubuntu. I have been playing a ton of last of us and cyberpunk without a hitch for a few weeks. But recently, Ive been running into this issue where I click "Play" on a game and immediately my steam puts itself in "No Connection" mode though I am soundly connected to Wifi. I restart it and after a few tries, it runs smoothly for a time. I just am wondering if there's any way i can fix this. I hope it doesn't become harsher issue and put my gaming time at risk! Please let me know if any of y'all have suggestions on how to solve this! Wish y'all well and stay cool during this summer heat!

My old Linux Mint install got borked when it asked me to do a Kernel update, something about xGCP (dont remember the name but it was something like that) not able to be ran and the boot drive having no space (complete bullshit btw)

I reinstalled and updated the Kernel, beyond what it was telling me originally, which was 6.8, to 6.11 to avoid issues and now the computer works and I've reinstated my timeshift.

Games used to run perfectly fine on native and proton. Now when I try to run the same games (using the launch option I was using previously to make steam use the dGPU 'DXVK_FILTER_DEVICE_NAME="AMD Radeon RX 7600" %command%') I get stuttering and lower fps.

Even on my modded OpenMW (Elder Scrolls Morrowind, which came out in 2002) install do I get graphical glitches and lower performance (on fairly tame shaders)

I used the same USB I used to originally install Mint. I don't see what could be possibly different now.
