A while ago I asked about the state of fractional scaling on GNOME for gaming and if it was on par with KDE Plasma.

Tl;dr KDE Plasma fractional scaling for gaming is still superior. However if you tinker or can tolerate integer scaling then GNOME is viable.

Since my CachyOS install was giving me problems I decided to just do some tests on GNOME before I reinstalled CachyOS again.

For some context, I have a 32” 4K monitor. On KDE Plasma, I use a scale factor of 150%. 100% is too small and 200% is too big.

CachyOS disables fractional scaling on GNOME. I couldn’t find an official answer on why but I’d imagine it’s due to what I encounter on my tests.

I installed Fedora Workstation and got Steam installed. I installed a few games. The test is simple, what is the max resolution of the game? This will show the flaw of scaling for GNOME and XWayland.

All the games wanted to render at 5120x2880. This is terrible for performance reasons. If I tried to set the games resolution to 3840x2160 the game ends up blurry.

This is due to how GNOME handles XWayland apps for scaling. On KDE, XWayland apps are allowed to scale themselves. This is not the case on GNOME.

I’m sure there is a gsettings command to fix this but that’s not what I’m here to evaluate.

I’m also sure using gamescope is another solution as you can force the window size for the game to match your monitor resolution. I haven’t tested this to see if it would fix the blurriness.

KDE Plasma is still the best option for out-of-the-box fractional scaling. It functions how you would expect it to without any tinkering.

Steam hardware survey popped up today. Hasn't for a long time. Switched to Endeavour from another distro earlier this year, I've been really happy with it.

Windows has always been the go-to platform for PC gaming, but after years of putting up with its quirks, I finally gave Linux a shot. Now, I am never going back. (Author: Raghav Sethi)

Me: Ubuntu
My friend: Windows

Yes, from even a minute amount of researching, I know that only until Shogun 2 that crossplay was properly implemented for Total War games, thus anything before that doesn't have crossplay.

I remember the 2 of us doing one battle and then moving on to something else, and forgot about it entirely. For the life of me I can't remember how we even got into a lobby together. I didn't even fiddle with files or anything much, either some combination of switching to a version of older of Proton or maybe even my friend fiddling with those multiplayer Beta versions in 'Properties'.
I used to have the replay of that battle but I don't think that'd help with anything if I still had it.

Forgive me for having not much else to go on, I'm as baffled as you'd be.

I was playing Path Of Exile 2 and trying to set a key for looting so I pressed either W, ALT, CTRL, while left clicking and at some point the left click of my mouse wasn't doing anything anymore, I found that by doing ctrl+alt+F1 and ctrl+alt+f7 solved it but now the left click is acting strangely like sometime it hold sometimes not, what have I done, is there a key combo that I did that could do that ?

Hey guys, I am new to the linux space and I enjoy it so far, but I need help which corresponds to the raytracing option in monster hunter wilds.

I want simply disable raytracing entirely. But I notices unfortunately that the game is greying out that option.

I tried multiple proton versions, cachyos nativ proton package, proton-cachyos10.0-20250820-slr-x86_64_v3,the latest Proton_GE and the experimentail. In the menus its only saying "proton experimental" which confuses me, since I already made sure multiple timess that I have proton experimental installed and chose for the experimental in the beta options for the bleeding edge one.

But I coudn't force the game on letting me touch the raytracing option. Furthermore I use the following launch arguments right now:

WINE_NTSYNC=1 mangohud DXIL_SPIRV_CONFIG=wmma_rdna3_workaround PROTON_FSR4_UPGRADE=1 game-performance %command%

I post them, so maybe something there is to consider for me, since I am still new to linux :)

But you guys maybe also wonder what my hardware is, here is the list:

CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D

RAM: 32 GB (2x16GB RAM Sticks) Corsair Vengance DDR5 @ 6000 MT/s I believe timings are CL34

GPU:AMD Radeon RX 7900XT

For the drivers: Mesa 25.3.0-devel (git-c11f47481a)

So further in the context: After I tried to use different proton Versions, I tried to modify the config.ini file in the regular gamefolder. There I set the parameter under the raytracing section from 'Enable=True' to 'Enable=False'. And this causes the game to crash for me and I really do not why. So rn I am stuck on Denuvo because as I found out that I had changed to many times the proton version, cause it counts as another system log in for denuvo. And now I am stuck on denuvo prevents me from starting the game for 24 hrs.

Guys I'll appreciate any help and suggestions and I hope anyone could tell my why the raytracing option is greyed out in the game and I can't touch the setting.

Hey team,

I'm struggling to get an FPS limiter working for Steam games on Bazzite and could use some help. My System: - OS: Bazzite (Desktop) - KDE PLasma - DE: KDE Plasma on Wayland - GPU: AMD 9070XT - Monitor: 170Hz with FreeSync

I'm trying to limit FPS in games (using Northgard as a test case) similar to how I had it set in Windows (VSync on in Adrenaline (Global), FreeSync on, FPS capped at 165 on a 170Hz monitor) as per blurbusters advice.

I tried running northgard from steam and using mangohud but couldnt get mangohud or steam overlay to work. I tried using goverlay, setup with boxbudy and arch, then I tried using mangojuice (Both apps test feature worked).

Then I tried using gamescope, this allowed me to see mangohud with the mangoapp argument and once I used scopebuddy gui to set a env variable to map to the mangohud conf filepath I was able to modify the overlay. However the fps limit doesn't work, i set it at 165,50,30. The gamescope argument -r doesn't work either.

I have tried using different combos on vrr on/off/adaptive in desktop settings/mangohud conf/gamescope arguments, none of it working. The only thing that works is in-game if I set vsync to on, then the fps max's out at the monitors hz. But I cannot modify it from there.

I tried downloading FTL and that seems to work without gamescope, with mangohud and the fps limiter works. Chatgpt said that's because it runs natively while northgard is running through proton, though i checked that on protondb and it says that northgard is native. Though I might be reading that wrong.

Here is my steam launcher options:

gamescope -w 2560 -h 1440 -W 2560 -H 1440 -r 165 -f -e --mangoapp --adaptive-sync

This is the max args I have been playing with reducing for testing,

Here is my mangohud conf (I have removed display test to shorten it):

# Config Generated by MangoJuice #
legacy_layout=falsegpu_stats
gpu_core_clock
gpu_temp
gpu_power
cpu_stats
cpu_load_change
cpu_mhz
cpu_temp
cpu_power
fps
gamemode
fsr
refresh_rate
toggle_logging=Shift_L+F2
toggle_hud_position=Shift_R+F11
output_folder=/home/Ian/Documents/MangoJuice
fps_limit_method=late
toggle_fps_limit=Shift_L+F1
fps_limit=165,60,30
vsync=0
gl_vsync=0
background_alpha=0.6
position=top-left
table_columns=5
toggle_hud=Shift_R+F12
.....

I have been trying to change the values of vsync and gl_vsync when testing.

I have been using Shift_R+F12 to toggle visibility and Shift_L+F1 to toggle limiting the fps to see if that's the issue, I can see in the overlay the value changing but the fps never adheres.

Has anyone set this up and could help me workout what I am doing wrong or missing?

Thank you for the help.

I use ubuntu with a radeon rx 6800 and ryzen 5 5600x x12 and since yesterday none of my games will run well if at all, if I launch them in steam from terminal it will say

"vulkan: No DRI3 support detected - required for presentation

Note: you can probably enable DRI3 support in your Xorg config"

I have tried asking in r/ubuntu and got no responce and I have tried everything from reinstalling vulkan and amd drivers to ensuring that dri3 is included in the xorg.conf files, nothing works and I have made abolutely no headway in getting it working. So any tips would be greatly appreciated
