These are my setups:

Main rig:

Hardware: 5080 + 9800X3D

OS: Fedora KDE

Other PC:

Hardware: 9060xt + 9600x

OS: Bazzite

Don’t get me wrong, I am able to play games on my Fedora setup, however, there are times I feel I am missing out on significant performance.

For example:

Death Stranding

Fedora gets less than 100FPS

Bazzite gets 150+ FPS

There are certain games that run similar if not better on my Fedora rig than Bazzite or Windows. For example, Overwatch, Minecraft, Arc Raiders, all these games run amazing on my Fedora KDE. Others do not run so great on my 5080, but they do on the 9060xt, which is what Im struggling with. Is it the OS, the GPU, or do I just have things not set up properly, since I know Bazzite is tuned for gaming.

My 5080 should be getting way more performance, and the GPU isn’t being fully utilized when I look at the performance metrics such as mangohud.

I have it set to max performance, cpu governor is maxed, and gamemode is working. I have the latest 595 nvidia driver. I’ve done whatever I can, the only thing I can think of is maybe it’s just NVIDIA vs AMD that is the difference here.

https://www.rocketleague.com/en/news/easy-anti-cheat-comes-to-rocket-league-on-pc-today

More and more companies are selling out. Almost 12 years after its release, Epic is now giving players an ultimatum: download a kernel level anti-cheat giving them full access to your PC, or quit the game. I've been playing RL since 2016 and have over 5k hours, but I refuse to download EAC, and so now I have to say goodbye to my favorite game. This sucks man.

And so the EAC virus continues spreading, without much opposition...

Good Day, I have been experiencing some FPS drops that tank my fps from around 100fps all the way down to 10 fps after 30-60 min. my gpu temps hover around the 45-60 degree range at most with cpu temps at around 60 degrees too. VRAM Usage as you can see was at a steady 3Gb. My system has an rx 6600xt paired with an i3 12100 (yes I do plan to upgrade eventually).

Not dual booting and running CachyOS kernel 7.0.0.1 on hyprland.

please do assist (the game in the pic is mafia definitive edition)

Note: this is my first Reddit post like this so sorry if its off

I started feeling like the numbers were off about two years ago. It seemed like I was seeing way more Linux users in games then should be possible based on the numbers, it felt like more then 3% where openly using Linux so the true number must be higher.

I took a closer look at the numbers on steam and I saw a pattern. Overall, 26% of steam users had Chinese set as their language. But, only 2% of Linux steam users had their language set to Chinese, thats a huge gap. so I ran the numbers and saw that the amount of English Linux users was at 6%! around 25% of that is from the steam deck, but I feel like around 25% of linux users dont have steam, so that 6% could be used in a more general desktop market share.

I did that around 2 years ago and redid it today, and the number is now 11%! so if my calculations are correct, about 11% of English steam users are on Linux, meaning we might be about to cross the threshold where companies start caring about us.

But who knows, I might be wrong about all of this. I just wanted to know what you guys thought.

Hello everyone I have a question,

I'm trying to make my PS5 controller work on linux. I have it connected with bluetooth, but I also tried USB with no difference. The main functionality works, but I wanted to try the haptics and everything.

At the moment when I try to use the haptics with some terminal tools, I get all the advanced trigger haptics. Steam recognizes it as PS5 controller and it rumbles. But nothing in game. The same for wine and bottle games, in theory it seems to be working, but not in games.

A quick gemini prompt later, It said it could be that the games send it as sound input. I can't see any new sound devices added so I'm not sure about that.

Driver: hid-playstation

OS: 7.0.0-200.nobara.fc43.x86_64

CPU/GPU: Ryzen 5 5800/Rx7900xt

Bluetooth and wireless the same issue

In Wine control panel I see that in DInput every btn (just not the mic mute and trackpad is counted as one btn) and axis works, just dont see any Force Feedback effects. From what I read it seems there should be native kernel support for all of this by sony.

I get this error `br-connection-create-socket` when connecting the controller on bluetooth, but I isnt fixed even on USB so I ruled that out.

I tested with Death Stranding and DS2. Both the same issue but I dont think it works in any other games. Help would be appreciated, thanks...

I removed a game from Lutris right-clicking on the icon and then "Remove". But the files of the game are still in the game directory. Is it sufficient to delete the game's folder entirely?

Hi. I promised that I will share the final render here so I'm doing exactly that.

The art was done by Anton Alexandrov with some help from Alex McGrapes. Anton has some very cool character artworks for Discworld, and half of Alex's portfolio is robots. I encourage to check their stuff out.

I would like to know an os that is like bazzite in terms of built in gaming feature, etc as its gonna be for my pc that I use as a console. I have used bazzite for the last 6 months but it decided to reset itself and break appart for the second time. I never updated to maintain something stable and yet sometime I will just reboot and my startup scripts will be gone and resolution wont be right, I wont be able to change settings because of random errors, etc.

So I am tired of bazzite and restarting my game downloads, config, etc so I want to know an alternative that wont shit itself for no reason

Been at this for two days and losing my mind a little. Running Pop!_OS 24.04 LTS on an MSI Katana A17 with RTX 4060 + AMD iGPU (Ryzen 9 8945HS). NVIDIA driver 580.126.18, GPU mode set to NVIDIA via system76-power. Game throws ERR_GFX_D3D_SWAPCHAIN every launch despite system.xml clearly showing kSettingAPI_Vulkan. Tried GE-Proton10-34, Proton Experimental and Proton 9 Beta. Rebuilt the prefix multiple times, winetricks vcrun2019 and dotnet, locked the config read-only, tried every NVAPI and PRIME launch flag combination I could find. The weird part — it launched successfully once into the graphics settings screen on a fresh prefix with Proton Experimental and empty launch options. Couldn't reproduce it since. nvidia-smi confirms the 4060 is active and working fine. Other games run perfectly. Anyone solved this on a hybrid AMD+NVIDIA laptop? What am I missing?

I hope it's ok for me to make another post about this. My first post hasn't really gotten responses to the more recent progress and I still need help. Here it is

https://www.reddit.com/r/linux_gaming/comments/1su280v/kingdom_come_deliverance_2_crashes_when_starting/

So yeah, basically I'm running arch and trying to play KCD2 but most of the time when I start the game it just won't start. I've tried different Proton versions including GE, I've fully reinstalled Arch, I've tried it both on my encrypted system SSD and another non encrypted SSD, they all use EXT4. I've checked all the hardware, the memory, the CPU and such all pass stress tests, both the SSD's I've tried it on seem to be fine. From monitoring the VRAM and RAM it doesn't look like they're filling up on startup. Other games don't have the same issue.

This is the proton log:
