Issue with proton catchyos installation
I'm trying to install it on Lutris with proton+ and it seemed like it was done downloading, I changed the runner and launched the game but the only thing that showed up was that error message (details here).
I didn't have that kind of issue while installing proton-ge so what did I miss here?

Warcraft on Cachy OS with Game Performance mode.
Hey there. I've got Warcraft running on Cachy OS. I've got a bit of a question about Cachy's Game Performance mode. I'm pretty sure I've done everything right but I am still very much a linux noob and I was hoping someone who knows what they're doing could check my work and make sure I've done all the "obvious" steps to make sure I have the best possible experience.
I installed Battle.net using Wine. I was unable to get the installer to work in Steam, but it worked just fine with Wine. After that, I added Battle.net to Steam using the "add non-Steam games option" and it seems to be running fine, and I was then able to use it to install WoW. Great.
I know that I need to enter the game-performance command, but where should I do that? Ideally, the command would apply to the WoW client but NOT the Battle.net launcher, but if I put it in Steam it appears to apply to both the launcher and the game. Is there a version of this command I can enter directly into Battle.net so that it only applies to the WoW client? I tried entering game-performance directly into Battle.net and it prevented the game from launching.
Am I making any sense?
Thanks so much for your time.
Edit: grammar

Problem with NTE
Hey everybody, I hope someone can help me with this issue.
I want to play Neverness to Everness on my CachyOS. Had a hard time to even get it to install, but got it to work last night without problems.
I was using faugus with Proton-CachyOS latest and the launcher started, install worked fine, game started too. I played for like five hours, then went to bed.
This morning when I wanted to start the game again, it told me I needed to install the launcher from scratch (?) and also the game. I wasn't able to point it to the files it had already installed. But okay, fine sure, installed it from scratch thinking I'd just do that everytime I wanted to play, no biggy.
Instead of the game starting I get an error message "Error (0x7ab54). Please close programs causing issue and restart." Then the game crashes/closes again.
My current settings for faugus are in the screenshot. Is there anything I can change or a completely different way I have to go to make the game playable? Ideally without having to reinstall it every time I want to play it?
I appreciate any help. Please be really specific on what I have to do though, I'm a little scared to break anything long-term lol

[Steam] Games configured with Proton Experimental are not launching
Not sure when that happened but somehow as soon as a game is configured to run with Proton Experimental it will fail to launch, it does not not even create as log if the protonLog flag is set in the launch options.
Funny thing is that all other Proton version do work just fine (i.e. GE-Proton or the regular Steam Proton 10, etc. ) so my feeling is that ther is a corrupted file or config flag somewhere.
The problem is that even after uninstalling Proton Exerimental, checking that the files and folders are gone on the disk, closing/reopening Steam, installing Experimental again, the problem still persists.
Anyone had that once with a Proton version and found a fix for that?
- Ubuntu 24.04 LTS
- Kernel 6.14
- Steam current version (also tried Beta)
EDIT: SOLUTION
Thanks u/lynxros for the hint. You removed your post somehow but it was the right tip:
If you have some of the most recent GE-Proton versions configured for your game then this might alter the prefix in a way that makes it incompatible with Proton Experimental. For example I had GE-Proton10-34 configured for a game so I had to remove/delete the prefix folder from compdata to let the directory be rebuilt with Experimental set as the Proton Version.

Ubuntu broke my nvidia driver settings
I would like to ask for advice since wednesday ubuntu came with an update which mostly broke my nvidia drivers. I was using the nvidia-driver-open-570, which handled everything fine (WoW, steam games, etc), but now it only allows me to install versions greater or equal to 580 (which sucks).
I've already tried to force install the 570, but it does say that the 570 version requires the 580 (?). Now, i'm using the 595 version, which works mostly fine but wow runs at 2 fps (using Pronton-GE and faugus launcher).
I'm currently using Ubuntu 24.04 and my rig is:
Ryzen 7 5600G
RTX 5070
32Gb RAM 3200Mhz

Hey improved my Bazzite
I've been making a few optimizations to my laptop with Bazzite. When I started, I had in mind something like “Void” Linux, which has a pretty fast and efficient boot time. Of course, knowing that Bazzite uses an immutable system, I tried to adapt this idea as much as possible. I achieved the results you see in the image, and on top of that, my laptop is running at a surprising 20 degrees Celsius with several applications open at once. This is definitely something anyone using medium or heavy distributions should do, It significantly improves the user experience and, on laptops, enhances all aspects of performance. How often do you do what I just did?
