I cant play zombie panic source on bazzite 42
I have tried everything to get Zombie Panic Source to work, using AI to install dependencies with Proton Tricks and Proton Up QT, I have tried different versions of Proton for compatibility and even launch parameters in the game, but I can't get it to start.

ubuntu glx desktop remote , dont work input device to steam or emulators
Hi, I'm having problems with Ubuntu. Eden isn't detecting my controller in JS0, but it is in Yuzu. I'd like to know how to get Eden to detect the controller. I'm playing in a Docker container with a Linux GLX Desktop image. Is there any way to use the controller plugin that Yuzu uses with Eden?

Proton Experimental brings improvements for Farlight 84, CHRONO TRIGGER and more
Protonhax does not really load correctly
When i tried to install it I followed an official guide, installed files into "/usr/bin/protonhax", gave it permission to execute and added "protonhax init %COMMAND%" to my steam game properties, but when I tried to run the game it just loaded infinitely and terminal didn't understand protonhax commands. Most likely I gave permissions the wrong way, so, can someone please help me with installing it?

Current state of Arc B570/80 under Linux?
Yeah... Currently using 1070Ti, and while it performs fine, and well, even wayland working nicely, the driver situation... it's just pain.
So was looking at GPUs,a nd.. Well, B570 is tempting, supposedly decent performance, more VRAM, and... drivers. Yeah, drivers.
How are the drivers under linux for those Battlemage GPUs?

List and description of variables for steam?
Is there a list of variables with descriptions? I’ve found a few short ones here and there but I’d like something where I can get more information on when and how to use them.

EDIT: I generally only use steam to play games atm.

Team Fortress 2 runs worse on Fedora KDE over KDE neon. Possibly because of older Mesa stack on neon = better old game support?
Hello,
I was running KDE neon for about a year and decided to switch distros to Fedora 43 KDE.
It works great and has been very good, but TF2 specifically runs visibly worse especially when looking at a lot of geometry (actual model count doesn't seem to matter — I can be in intense team fights with about the typical performance — the problem is worst when looking at a large open-ended map).
My specs should have TF2 running at >200 FPS at all times, which is what it did on KDE neon, especially on older maps. I'm on the Wayland compositor now and was on the Wayland compositor on neon, so it can't be a X11/Wayland issue.
My Vulkan instance version is 1.4.328, and Mesa version is 25.2.7.
I've been running TF2 at lower settings than I typically did on KDE neon and performance is still worse at these high-geometry moments. There are moments in-game where I vividly recall a specific place I'm walking into/out of having much higher FPS on the same hardware stack and here running at a lower FPS. The "high-geometry" thing could also be a red herring, I'm not sure.
Is there something wrong with my driver stack? Vulkan version? Mesa/OpenGL version? Other problems I'm not seeing?
If there is any information at all I can give additionally that will help you good folks figure out the problem, I'm happy to give it.
Thank you.
EDIT: My specs:
16 GB DDR4 3000MHz RAM
AMD Ryzen 5 3600 6-Core Processor with 4.6 GHz max clock
Radeon RX 56 Vega Graphics
Kernel version: 6.18.2 tkg

Is SSD a must especially for modern games?
Title, basically i played Hogwarts Legacy notice some random framedrops maybe because of my HDD? The gpu or cpu and ram they are well above the recomended requirements, maybe they are waiting for hdd to give some data or assets maybe proton needs some overhead for data reads or any software tweaks i can maximize my hdd performance.
Context: didnt have any issues on windows using hdd and the game is rated platinum in protondb.
OS: Fedora 43 GNOME

I don't know how to use frame gen in games, can someone help me ?
I'm trying to play Ghost of Tsushima which has frame gen, GPU is rx 9060 XT, my monitor is 180 hz, OS is linux mint 22.2.
How do I like render lets say 90 fps and let the frame gen render/create the remaining 90 fps ?
I activated the frame gen option in the game but I don't even know if its working or how it works, this seems confusing to me.

Fix broken controller mappings on SDL2 2.30.0+
After SDL2 2.30.0 , controllers like Nacon GC100 are detected but buttons are swapped/missing in:
- Heroic Games Launcher (Epic/GOG)
- Ryujinx/Yuzu/Suyu Switch emulators
- Any SDL2 app (non-Steam games)
Issue: Joystick backend refactor changed GUID/CRC detection. My Nacon GC100 worked perfectly before, now A=back button, etc
FIX:
Use the SDL_GAMECONTROLLERCONFIG environment variable with your controller's mapping string. Add it via Flatseal for Flatpak apps or prefix .desktop Exec lines with env SDL_GAMECONTROLLERCONFIG="your_string,"

I feel like every time I see someone complain about gaming on Linux, their always trying to play some AAA slop with kernel anti-cheat
Yes, your Activision-EA-Ubisoft-Epic Games sanctioned spyware may in fact not run the best on Linux, have you considered playing a game made by developers who don’t hate you?

issues with kisnt kn85
I am using a kisnt kn85 with kubuntu 25.10 (wayland).
I had issues with the `FN + Fxx` keys, untill i found this fix in this comment.
This fixed the issue when using the 2.4Gz mode (using their dongle). However i recently switched to cabled mode using the usb-C cable. This resulted in the same problem coming back (media keys don't work with FN, Only F key is registered).
Is there a config i could do with for instance something like keyd? or is there another fix?
Thank you :)

GPU: RX 9070 XT
As mentioned I'm using CachyOS. Any help fixing this would be highly appreciated.
