Need help with a Logitech G923 Steering Wheel Issue.

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 08. November 2024 - 19:54

Long story short, I have bought a Logi G923 xbox/pc version wheel, it works out of box on Ubuntu 24 when the modeswitch command is used, all the games I have tried have worked so far apart from one which is doing my head in. It's Farming Simulator 22. Does anyone else use the same wheel on the game with success, or are you having issues with the steering axis mapping. I map it to turn right and it works, when mapped to turn left the game sends the wheels full lock to the right at the slightest left turn of the wheel. Any help is appreciated with this.

What are you currently playing?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 08. November 2024 - 18:11

Just dusted off steam and was thinking about getting Diablo 4. Last game I played for a while on Linux was Hogswarts. Haven't played anything for a few months now. I used to be a big Skyrim lover... maybe I will seek that out again.

Once windows 10 is done I plan of moving to Linux as I detest windows 11

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 08. November 2024 - 17:31

I am aware that windows 11 is really just a windows 10 reskin but I just dont want to make thr jump. I use Linux as my vms for projects, I was made aware years ago that Linux does have problems with certain games and possible emulation issues, just want to check what flavour most people run and what games they have issues with if they are easily fixable.

I don't mind tinkering to get games to work, just to get some opinions.

Thanks guys

Is nouveau driver beneffing from the proprietary driver?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 08. November 2024 - 16:41

Hi, I'm a kind of new to linux (close to a year using it) and at first when I tried to use the nouveu driver that is included on my distro it was very slow and I could not open any 3D titles (factorio and city skylines worked fine), so I installed the Nvidea proprietary drives and switched between than everytime I wanted to play games (sway is more stable in the open source drives).

The thing is lately I don't need to switch to play any game that I tried, I don't play a lot of heavy titles, but I'm playing Thrones and Liberty just fine, that is kinda of heavy for my gpu (1660).
Could I remove the proprietary drivers and everything would just keep working or is the open source extracting something from them?

ps.: Maybe this is not the best forum to post this, but giving it is more about gaming than computing i choose to post this instead of the linux for noobs subreddit, if it is better posted let me known and I'll repost there and close this one, thanks...

Upgrading GPU. AMD vs Nvidia?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 08. November 2024 - 16:10

Hello folks.

I'm currently running Windows on my desktop, but I plan on upgrading to Linux sometime before Windows 10 reaches EOL (2025 = the year of the Linux desktop? /j) and I'm also planning a hardware upgrade sometime soon for unrelated reasons.

I've heard that Nvidia GPUs don't play well with Linux, since their drivers are proprietary, but I've also heard that things have gotten way better in recent years.

What would yall recommend I go with when I get my new hardware?

I do see the section on this in the FAQ, but I'm not sure how up-to-date it is.

Yakuza 0 doesn't save the game file.

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 08. November 2024 - 15:55

Basically whenever I play Yakuza 0 on arch linux through wine, it never saves the game no matter how hard I try it. I tried proton but on proton it would just say "unable to create interface isteamuser". I am really confused on what could be the issue. I have tried RDR1 as well with Proton and it's working perfectly but for Yakuza 0? Not so much. I tried Lutris as well and it doesn't do anything as well(other than giving additional fps drops)

My PC:
CPU: 12th Gen Intel i5-1235U (12) @ 4.400GHz
GPU: Intel Alder Lake-UP3 GT2 [UHD Graphics]
Memory: 7666MiB

I use arch btw

how would I go about making proton use my second dedicated GPU?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 08. November 2024 - 15:35

I got a second gpu recently and its been fun messing with VMs and such but I like to play games on proton that usually max out my VRAM, my second GPU is basically empty so I thought it could be cool to just render all my games on it, I looked online and nothing seems to work or its specifically for people with AMD and NVIDIA cards while I have 2 nvidia cards. steam seemingly just doesnt let me do this at all buut in heroic it actually did work by enabling the dedicated gpu setting which was mainly intended for laptops

in short I have 2 nvidia cards and I just want some help or guidance on how I could use my second gpu for game rendering could someone tell me or point me in the right direction with this? if you need more info just ask me
