Can't run any games, keep getting dri3 error

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 01. September 2025 - 12:56

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

There is a bug in Heroic which makes it removes games instead of moving them

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 01. September 2025 - 12:19

I was moving some games using Heroic Games Launcher, the application copies the files, before removes them, so when it didn't find enough space to copy the files, it removed the rest of unmoved files. I didn't notice what happened until I found that all of my games are gone, and needs to be downloaded again. This weekend is going to be great.

Issues with poor performance and display lockup after disconnect (Among other things) (AMD eGPU on Fedora Linux)

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 01. September 2025 - 11:31

As the title says, I have been facing a multitude of problems with my eGPU setup. I should note that I am very new to Linux.

I have two main issues:

1. The gaming performance is very bad. Satisfactory, is about the most "graphically demanding" game I play gets around 20 fps on integrated graphics (eGPU disconnected). With my eGPU, that only goes up to 40 fps. At the same time, system monitor reports 100% utilization of the dedicated graphics (eGPU). Less demanding titles obviously perform better but are still nowhere near where they could be. I understand that there are performance penalties, but this seems too high.

Note: I am playing a screen connected directly to the eGPU Note: I used to use a older Intel chip and a 2060 to play Satisfactory on Windows, yielding much better performance, which is why I don’t think this a CPU bottleneck

2. The most frustrating issue is the display lockup that randomly happens after the GPU is connected. This can happen under any circumstances. It happens on the lock screen, on the desktop, in a browser, or in a game. The only way to escape is be forcefully shutting the computer off.

There are also two more lower priority issues:

3. Under certain conditions, the screen will intermittently turn black for a few seconds and then come back. As far as I can tell the content that would be on screen still reacts to my input. This specifically happens with Cities: Skylines 1, with the game in windowed or full screen modes. I have not yet observed it with any other game.

4. The system refuses to boot with the eGPU connected. It will just be frozen on the loading screen with the Fedora logo and the spinning wheel. This is less of an issue because I can turn it on before connecting (if it’s not on already).

I hope that you guys can help me, especially with the first two. Maybe these issues are all symptoms of of the same underlying issue.

Some basic info about my setup that might be useful (will update this if more important details are found):

  • Framework Laptop 13 with a Ryzen 7840U
  • Fedora 42 KDE Plasma Edition
  • Games installed through Steam and run using Proton
  • Sonnet Breakaway eGPU w/ Radeon RX 6700XT
  • eGPU connected to external 1080p display. Set as primary display in KDE settings. All apps and games appear on that display when opened.
  • Output from running "sudo lspci -vv": https://pastebin.com/VuyPs0mN

Looking for help using the BG3 Mod Manager in Bottles

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 01. September 2025 - 09:05

So I just got into using Linux, and I am able to manually mod just fine, but BG3 has some mods I need the mod loader for and to fix up the load order. I've seen people use both wine and bottles and for this, and I decided on bottles. How would I get this up and running on bottles as a whole? I'm not too familiar with the program.

The original Splitgate's native Linux build got removed without notice

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 01. September 2025 - 08:09

The original Splitgate has been released in 2019 and supported Linux natively since 2021.

https://www.gamingonlinux.com/2021/07/looks-like-splitgate-will-be-the-next-big-thing-fps-supported-on-linux/

The game used to support cross-play between Linux, Windows, PlayStation and Xbox. Due to difficulties caused by releasing the sequel in a poor state, the dev initially decided to shut the servers of the original game, then announced switching to P2P to keep the game alive.

https://www.gamingonlinux.com/2025/08/the-original-splitgate-will-live-on-with-player-hosted-matches/

However, it turned out that even though the 29th Aug 2025 update is set to keep the game with P2P support and even the cross-play with consoles remain functional, the native Linux client removed entirely without notice.

https://steamdb.info/changelist/30854943/ (requires Steam login to show details)

As expected, many suggest using the Proton, but considering that I purchased the packs of the game solely due to its native Linux support, I feel saddened. Sigh...
