Arch gets less FPS (200FPS difference) on my machine then Ubuntu. What can I do?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 11. April 2024 - 13:14

Hello guys,

I am planning a switch to Arch when my new SSD comes in, I have been testing it for over 4 months now, and to my relief it is actually getting worse performance than my Ubuntu 22.04 LTS install for the first time in Quake Champions which is one of the games I love to play in my free time.

On Ubuntu it gets 300FPS (300 being the cap which is the maximum cap for that game) and on Arch (as of recently) it gets 67-80FPS which is really unexpected, as there has been no change in the software I run on Arch (unless you include the updates I did). By the way I just did a sudo pacman -Syu and the system is up to date as of 11th April.

My GPU is an Nvidia card, I use proprietary drivers on both my machines, most specifically the 550 drivers (Arch has the 550.67 drivers and Ubuntu has the 550.54 drivers).

My DE on Arch is Plasma 6 and GNOME on Ubuntu.

I use Wayland on both systems and it pretty much is the only thing that can help me, a person who has multiple mixed refresh rate monitors. Especially with the Explicit DRM Sync merge and the upcoming 555 drivers implementing Explicit Sync in May (according to Nvidia at least) the future looks really bright.

Do you have any suggestions on what may be the reason of these problems? Also, if you do have fixes you implemented or you know of tell them.

Thank you very much for reading. If you have any questions regarding my configuration, do not hesitate, put them in the comments.

Error: Couldn't switch to requested monitor resolution (I'm going crazy)

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 11. April 2024 - 11:57

Hello everyone,

I recently made the full jump to Linux, and installed Fedora 39 KDE on my laptop (which has a Nvidia 1650ti mobile dGPU), permanently removing Windows from the partition (and I don't regret a thing). At first everthing worked flawlessly: installed Nvidia drivers from rpmfusion, Steam and Heroic Launcher (both as flatpaks), all the games I play on both platforms run at the first click without any tweaking. After a few days, every game I try to play regardless of which launcher I use gives the following error at startup:

https://preview.redd.it/hkc02052mttc1.png?width=392&format=png&auto=webp&s=a21023080836a8027ab50910898591c40ca68eca

The issue arises both on Wayland and X11 sessions, besides I gamed on Wayland without any errors previously as stated above, so I assume it is not . After searching online, I found that setting PROTON_USE_WINED3D11=1 %command% as a launch option works on Steam, but with major impairments in graphic and performance. As for Heroic, disabling the "Auto Install/Update DXVK on Prefix" and VKD3D options achieves similar effects. Of course these are workarounds and far from a real solution to the problem. I then decided to make a post on the fedora forum to seek help, but things are moving slowly. I similarly opened an issue on the DXVK Github page (as the error seems to involve DXVK) and they told me that it would be difficult to help remotely. I'll link both of them for additional information:

https://github.com/doitsujin/dxvk/issues/3946

https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/t/error-couldnt-switch-to-requested-monitor-resolution/112135/15

Reinstalling Fedora from scratch works for a couple of days, but the issue returns without fail soon after. Another strange thing I noticed is, very rarely upon booting the laptop everything starts to work again, just to mysteriously break once I turn it off for the day and on again the day after. I'll also include the log of one of the games I tried to launch from Heroic:

https://github.com/doitsujin/dxvk/files/14920996/game-LastPlay.log

This is a cry for help because I'm stuck and don't really know what to do next, and wanted to know your opinion on the matter.

Dev Log : Added new gameplay

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 11. April 2024 - 10:36

Hello everyone,

With the addition of new gameplay (knee strike, fly kick, back flip, hurricane kick) the character now has the possibility of performing sequences, it's much more fun to test. There is a transition when an enemy speaks (a shader with a CRT effect).

Good day and good game

I'm doing some troubleshooting on my Dell G5 5505, and I need to see which GPU is being used by mangohud. by default, it just says "GPU". How can I make it say which GPU the game is using on Steam?

Need a key macro for linux gaming

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 11. April 2024 - 04:24

I am playing game on arch linux using Proton. I need to set the side button of mouse to "left click, key_r, key_r". However, proton seems to bypass the settings of X11 and receive the input of keyboard directly. Is there a way to achieve this.
