Lutris Rockstar Games Launcher Not Installing
Hi everyone, sorry for my ignorance, I'm a very new full-time linux user.
I wanted to download the Rockstar Games Launcher as I do not have RDR2 on Steam, however the installation gets stuck at the "Preparing to Install" phase.
Here is the log from Lutris:
Monitored process exited.
Initial process has exited (return code: 0)
All processes have quit
Exit with return code 0
Started initial process 32770 from /home/superuser/.local/share/lutris/runners/wine/wine-staging-11.2-x86_64/bin/wine /home/superuser/.cache/lutris/installer/red-dead-redemption-ii/launcher/Rockstar-Games-Launcher.exe

What I do not understand is, I have Nvidia drivers installed and have been able to run games at high frame rates. Am I misreading the errors?

Steam Slow Downloafs
So.
Linux is wonderful but when compared to Windows I have a weird speed issue with steam.
Windows happily Downloads between 700-850Mbps with disk usage of 900-1Gig
Linux is lucky to break 200Mbps.
I've tried http2 on and off
TCP mode
changed download location to different locations in the EU
distro distro with different file formats (ext4 Vs btrfs) btrfs with no cow on a folder
and yet nothing will bring the speed up to something close to windows
any ideas?

Linux gaming on Intel
I had this old computer for a while. It’s been great for some low level gaming and I like keeping it around (8th gen Intel cpu). Recently, my T1000 stopped working properly and for a cheaper alternative, I replaced it with an Intel B50 arc discrete gpu. I was under the impression that the two have similar power but with the new Intel one I got. I get a bunch of video corruption and greening video, video artifacts, some game crashes, and even some audio corruption after a while across the system. These problems also seem to get worse over time of use. Is there something I can do to fix this? Something I can change to make the Intel gpu work?

[CachyOS, Asus ROG Ally] Offline mode for non-Steam games (GOG, Epic)
Hello, I have long trip soon, so I wonder how can I use my device on the plane without wi-fi. For Steam games I understand that all I have to do is enable offline mode but what about other providers? I have games installed thru Heroic and added to Steam. Is there anything should do? I suspect that Epic will be worst offender.

CachyOS without Steam?
Hello, Is it advisable to use Cachyos + Lutris on non-Steam games? I've read that it's quite problematic because the Steam application applies most patches and fixes to Steam games. So it might be very difficult to get it working, or it might not work at all.

8bitdo won't connect with a bluetooth adapter
So, I just bought a bluetooth adapter, a very cheap one tbf, but that worked perfectly on Windows. On Linux, this happens. It will simply start to connect and disconnect like crazy. It's the first time I'm trying bluetooth on Linux, so I don't if there are any tweaks for it to work. The system is OpenSUSE Tumbleweed and I just installed bluez, enabled bluetooth.service on systemctl and then tried connecting with blueman. What else should I be doing?

Cant Get Phasmophobia To Launch
When I click the play button on Steam it goes from Play, to Cancel and then eventually it rolle right back to Play. Nothing pops up, nothing seems to open. The only on screen change is the button going from Play, Cancel and back to Play.
I've tried various Proton settings, hotfix, eperimental, newest stable, few different GE versions. And every time the same result.
I was on PikaOS and it was doing it on that. Switched to Garuda and it's still doing it. PikaOS is Debian based, Garuda is Arch based. Rather not switch to another OS so if anyone knows a fix I'd appreciate it.

Plutonium BO2 Multiplayer stuck on “Connecting to Online Service” (Fedora + Steam Proton)
trying to run Plutonium BO2 multiplayer on Fedora (GNOME) through Steam using Proton, but it keeps getting stuck on “Connecting to Online Service.”
It randomly works once every blood moon, but 99% of the time it just stays on that screen forever.
What I’ve tried:
Different Proton versions (including Proton GE)
Launch options:
DXVK_ASYNC=1 PROTON_NO_FSYNC=1 PROTON_NO_ESYNC=1 %command%
Disabling firewall completely
Reinstalling Plutonium
Reinstalling the game files
Zombies works consistently
Any help would be appreciated <3

CS2 gives black screen after setting graphics to medium
I was playing CS2, and decided I wanted to bump my graphics up a little. The game proceeded to crash, and only plays audio on launch. I have reinstalled, removed settings data, and tried many launch options. I am on Fedora Linux 43 with a Nvidia GTX 1650, Ryzen 7 5700G, 32GB of RAM, and an 850W Corsair power supply.

Gaming in Linux mint is difficult
I have tried. I really have. I keep my system updated. I install nothing "unofficial" I read manuals and i google when shit breaks. But holy fuck gaming on mint has been a shitfest for me. I usually play: Cities Skylines, Train simulators etc etc. And all this random crashing i have gives me gray hairs.
I can't figure it out. I will soon cave in and have a dedicated windows gaming rig instead.

Finally ditched the Discord's .deb installation in favour of the Flatpak. I am a free man.
I'm also aware of the option of editing discord/settings.json but I just can't be bothered to do that anymore.

How to partition storage drive?
I’m trying to add a new NVMe drive to use it as steam storage. I would also like to have a smal place on it for my other files.
How should I partition it and do I need to? What if I just add it to Steam and use it as library and then drop files there too?
