Cyberpunk 2077 hard freezes on CachyOS (AMD RDNA3, Proton) – virtual_setup_exception nested exception on signal stack
Hi, I’m having serious stability issues with Cyberpunk 2077 on Linux and I’m running out of ideas and need help! I'm experiencing consistent crashes/freezes. The game always launches, runs smoothly, but no Proton version is stable. Crashes happen randomly during gameplay, often after 2-30 minutes. Usually after like 5 minutes. Running the game with PROTON_LOG=1 produces the exact same error in every proton version.
Proton versions tested:
- Proton-CachyOS 10.0-20251126 (steam linux runtime):
- Proton Experimental
- GE-Proton10-27: game ran the longest (~1 h), but crash here soft-locked the system (could alt+tab but nothing would launch, not even a terminal window), requiring a hard reset. Previous Protons allowed killing the process normally.
Proton GE:
err:virtual:virtual_setup_exception nested exception on signal stack addr 0x7f3a518b2e60 stack 0x7ffcce50
Proton Experimental:
err:virtual:virtual_setup_exception nested exception on signal stack addr 0x7ff6178b2e60 stack 0x7ffcce50
Notably, the address is always identical, suggesting a deterministic memory allocation issue.
Specs:
Kernel: Linux 6.18.2-3-cachyos
KDE Plasma 6.5.4
WM: KWin (Wayland)
CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 7500F (12) @ 5.08 GHz
GPU: AMD Radeon RX 9060 XT 16GB [Discrete]
RAM: 32GB
Happens in:
- Missions (e.g. Heist, Braindance)
- Menus (skills/perks)
- Sometimes after only 2–5 minutes, sometimes works up to ~1h if little happens on-screen
Things that I've already tested (all with cache clean + verify files):
- Ray Tracing OFF / ON
- FSR 3 / 4
- With / without gamescope
- With / without mangohud
- FPS limit only in-game (monitor 200 Hz)
- vm.max_map_count increased to 2147483642
Crashes occur in all configurations. Flags seem irrelevant. Ray Tracing may speed up the crash.
Game is opened through Steam, Launch commands tested:
Raw:
%command% --launcher-skip --intro-skipGamescope:
mangohud DXVK_ASYNC=1 VKD3D_ASYNC=1 PROTON_NO_ESYNC=1 PROTON_NO_FSYNC=1 \
PROTON_FSR4_UPGRADE=1 PROTON_ADD_CONFIG=fsr4rdna4 \
WINEDLLOVERRIDES="winmm,version=n,b" RADV_PERFTEST=nggc \
gamescope -f -w 2560 -h 1440 -r 200 --force-grab-cursor -- \
%command% --launcher-skip --intro-skip -skipStartScreen
Without gamescope (last crash on proton GE):
VKD3D_CONFIG=no_upload_hvv PROTON_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 PROTON_FSR4_UPGRADE=1 \
PROTON_LOG=1 PROTON_ADD_CONFIG=fsr4rdna4 mangohud \

Having trouble installing Reshade & ps2 controllers in Clair Obscure.
I'm following this guide
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YNvfgYSmwwc
But reshade doesn't show up.
I tried putting a PS2 controller in the game, but it doesn't seem to recognize it. But on steam's big picture, it can recognize the controller.

Tekken 8, can't connect to the server
I'm on popOS, i have an asus a15 (nvidia 4060), don't know if its relevant.
i've tried proton experimental, hotfix, 8-0-5 and 7-0-6. i made sure to have Easy anti cheat installed and chatgpt suggested to "disable" ipv6 or something like that.
Still cant connect, anything i'm missing? I'm not a linux expert, i've been using it for less than a month and i dont have very good knowledge in terms of "internet" and "network" stuff tbh, so i don't really know what could be the problem.
(everytime it gives the same error: C-00001-00898-1)
i also pased this into the lauch options:
PROTON_EAC_RUNTIME=1 %command% HOST_LC_ALL=$(echo $LANG) %command%

Can I play Rust on Linux?
Installed Rust today as I used to play it on windows all the time, tried to get into a server and was met with a no EAC detected error.
noticed that Rust had installed via proton, and so the EAC installed was an .exe
Wanted to make a thread in case older threads had outdated info.
Is there any ways around this issue or am I going to have a Christmas without Rust?
Cheers.

Recording games using Steam flatpak
Hello,
I am currently using Fedora 43 Cosmic. I have Steam installed via Flatpak because I don't see a system installation.
The problem is that I can't record gameplay. It seems to save a temporary file with the recording, etc., but when I try to play it back or save it, I always get an error saying that it can't be done.
Does this feature even work on Linux?
Does anyone know how to fix this?
Could it be a problem with my distribution?
I should mention that I switched to Linux from Windows about a year ago, so I'm still learning the ropes.

Steam "The Farmer was replaced" sudden graphics issue
I installed and played "The Farmer was replaced" from Steam yesterday. No issues, everything worked OOTB.
Now, the next day, I only get this screen:
I can hear the games music, and it reacts to me pressing "ESC" (the screen gets a little darker).
I tried every common tinker steps:
Proton Experimental, Proton-GE, Proton Latest Stable, Launch options mentioned on ProtonDB: https://www.protondb.com/app/2060160
I'm running out of ideas here :(

i need help
Fedora: Anno 117 stuck on "Running" in Steam but never really starts.
hi guys
I recently made the switch from Windows to Fedora. So far all the games I tried have worked, except for Anno 117.
When I press Play, it says "Running" but nothing happens. I tried using GE Proton 10.26 and 10.27 and adding the startup parameters suggested here: https://www.protondb.com/app/3274580
But nothing seems to do the trick. Are there any other suggestions by any chance?
Cheers and happy holidays!
