Swapping from Windows to Linux part 2

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 15. März 2024 - 11:08

A short followup from my previus post about swapping from Windows to Linux.https://www.reddit.com/r/linux_gaming/comments/1awbee7/manjaro_as_a_windows_user/

I'm aware that arch is rolling release and could be unstable but if I knew what I was getting up to, I might have never started.

I ended up dropping Manjaro completly, most of the issues could have been fixed but ended up with EndevourOS running KDE plasma with SystemD-Boot as I wanted a "working" computer. For me EOS was running wayland with my Nvidia card and Intel CPU. This was new to me still but worked great for about 2 weeks, It all started going down after the release of KDE plasma 6. Once the update was completed first issues was right after login.

1: Info screen stuck top right corner of main display that gave some "paint" info and a FPS counter.
I could not for the life figure out what it was called and got no further going to the forums and
Google. Sadly I don't have a picture of it to help figure out what it was.
2: Massive screen tear across all programs
3: Games running fullscreen had a major input delay of about 0.5 seconds.
4: Can't boot properly: "Bluetooth: hci0: Malformed MSFT vendor event: 0x02"

Problems 1-3 could have been fixed by swapping to x11 instead of Wayland. At the time of those problems I had no knowledge on how to change this but because of problem #4 I was not able to boot which made troubleshooting hard. Gave my best and conclusion is that Bluetooth is probably not the issue as this should not stop me from booting into GUI, and I could not find any problems with Desktop environment. I'm in no doubt that this could have been fixed inside tty if you have more knowledge, but at current level I dropped it after going in circles after two days.

After I gave up troubleshooting I selected EOS Gnome this time to have a "working" OS with GUI. Base design principles with Gnome was not my liking so I was on the hunt for another distro with KDE. This time I ended up with Garuda KDE running plasma6 and x11 as display server and that seems to be working fine and stable

Afterthoughts:

  1. I know arch is rolling release and probably not the most stable version for daily driver.
  2. I might just a fetish for Arch since I keep using it and should probably not be complaining except to myself for not selecting another disto.

But in the end, even rolling release, I would assumed that arch KDE should have been more stable. I intend to keep using linux as daily driver as to test it as much as possible but still keep win10 available for the odd cases where Linux is not useable at all.

The Finals has a weird mouse bug

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 15. März 2024 - 10:32

Hi all! I saw that The Finals is playable on Linux again, so I downloaded and tried it. The mouse works perfectly in the menus, but when I get into the game, it behaves in a weird manner. As I move it, the character only turns in about a 45 degree angle, and any vertical movement snaps the camera to its upper most position. The game works flawlessly with a controller, and I haven't experienced any other issues, but this makes the game unplayable for me. Anybody got a solution?

So far I have tried Proton Experimental, 9.0 Beta (which couldn't connect to the server) and GE-9-1. Both Experimental and GE have this issue. Thanks for the help in advance!

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 15. März 2024 - 08:36

As you may of known, Sea of Thieves have been planning on using EAC for around 5 months now, no one was quite certain of they would enable proton support

But great news, it's supported just make sure you have the EAC Proton runtime from tools and you're good!

Servers are down for maintenance at the time of me writing, fyi.

Personal Reccomendations for Helldivers 2

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 15. März 2024 - 00:12

Hey all, i just got Helldivers 2. The game is a blast, but i can't seem to get it above 30 fps? i was hoping to get some personal reccomendations on settings, based on my personal hardware.

I have an:

AMD Ryzen 5 3600X 6-Core Processor CPU
AMD Radeon RX 5600 XT GPU
16 gigs of... DDR4 if i remember correctly.

I am on Nobara Linux using wayland.

I set most things to medium or low, and set the scaling to native (nothing ever looks right with those things turned on). Initially when i launched the game everything was on high and the scalign was on ultra quality and somehow i was getting like 70+fps but when i went in and lowered the settings after finishing the tutorial, it dropped to fluctuating between 25-30. Anybody have any tips here? thanks!

Counterstrike 2 mouse click issue.

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 14. März 2024 - 23:12

Sometimes while playing CS2 my mouse will randomly not click causing me not to fire or be able to throw grenades for several seconds. At first I thought it was my old mouse dying on me, but after buying a new one the issue still happens sometimes. Anyone else run into this issue or know of a fix?
