Hello guys,

I want to know if there is a way for bottles to install all games to my secondary drive? Like I created bottle named Epic, then I want to install the games but I want the games to be on my secondary drive named "Storage". Is that possible? Thanks!

I want to use compatdata folder from one Steam game in one non-steam game, it's a mod to that Steam game but it's using separate .exe file. The problem is that I want them both to use the same savefiles/configs that are located in appdata which are separated by Proton. Is there a way to do it?

Hello partners

I'm looking for a distro for my minisforum um690 machine, which has a Ryzen 9 6900hx processor. The problem is that there are many distributions that work for kernel reasons (for example, Ubuntu in version 22.04) and I have tried different distros focused on gaming, which is what I want this mini PC for. The problem is that I would not know how to distinguish which kernel will be best for my machine, since my knowledge is not enough.

​

I leave the kernel of each distribution here, in case you can help me. They all run well on my machine, but I would like to know which one fits best.

​

Nobara 39: Kernel 6.7.0-204.fsync.fc39.x86_64 (Wayland)

Pika OS 04.24.05: Kernel 6.8.3-pikaos (X11).

Regatta OS: Kernel 6.8.2-lp155.14-default (X11).

​

Any suggestion or recommendation is welcome.

I have truly fond memories of spending entire days playing rally games on the original PlayStation, and some later games on PC and Old School Rally really looks the part.

I have a Winwing Orion 2 HOTAS and it seems to work just find with evtest and Jstest, all buttons and axis work as intended. but i'm having trouble getting them to work on games through wine, games like Falcon 4.0 and Microsoft Combat Flight Simulator 3.

1. it seems that not all buttons/axis are detected by the game like in evtest

2. these two games detect the throttle and joystick as separate devices but assigns them the same button numbers, for example if the trigger in the stick is button 0, and i assign it to fire the gun, then button 0 in the throttle will also fire the gun

anyone can shed some light into how inputs that are more complex than a gamepad work?

HOTAS in question

Dwarf Fortress on Steam and itch.io has been a mega success for Bay 12 Games, a deserved success, given their previous free release supported and updated for a long time. Now the developers have confirmed it's closing in on a million sales.

Discover Overlay, an open source Discord Overlay for Linux has a new release available with v0.7.3 adding in some useful new features.

Hey guys. I just wanted to tell you that my small indie game is now available on Linux. Building it from Game Maker was quite a challenge, especially since I lack a strong technical background. After struggling with wsl without much success, a friend stepped in and helped me build it using a vps.

It has been tested on Ubuntu 22.04 and now available on Steam: Another Bar Game.

Previously, I released my debut game Dude, Where Is My Beer? which is also available on Linux. It's a point-and-click adventure game created with Visionaire Studio , which had a super easy Linux export possibilities :)

I came across advice on increasing vm.max_map_count for "better gaming".

https://www.gamingonlinux.com/2024/04/arch-linux-changes-vmmax-map-count-to-match-fedora-ubuntu-for-better-gaming/

Can anyone else suggest interesting options?

You may have seen news recently about explicit sync for Wayland, but you might not know why it's actually important for the future of Linux on Wayland.

More work is ongoing for the upcoming KDE Plasma 6.1 release, and there's some fun stuff being added like the ability to sync your keyboard RGB lighting up to your Plasma accent colouring.

Hi! I'm wondering if it's possible to use the Intel iGPU in my CPU (i5-13500) to render the KDE desktop but use the dGPU for games (like in Windows, you can switch the GPU per app in settings)

On my dGPU (RTX 3070) everything is very buggy on desktop (both GNOME and KDE, X11 and Wayland) that's why I wanted to see if it's possible. Btw I am using the Nvidia proprietary driver, not noveau (which was even worse).

I am using Fedora 39 KDE.

Want a really simple but useful launcher to run GZDoom games? If you find other launchers not to your liking, or too complicated, maybe CleanDoom will be what you need.

Windowkill is a fantastic twin-stick shooter, where the game window is constantly shrinking on you and enemies spawn across multiple windows. It's truly clever and now it has full customization available via the newly introduced modding support.

I’ve spent ages stuffing around with it. Verifying files, many different proton versions, everything. Still no luck, it won’t launch.

The closest I got was using ancient 4.11 proton.

I think I’m getting application configuration errors for proton?

Running Ubuntu 20.04

I’m starting to think I might have to try windows 7
