Downloads from gog
I wanted to try out gog through lutris and oh my lord… what is up with the download speed? Cyberpunk 2077 estimates a download of 15 hours? Is this normal? Maybe I’m just impatient but I can do the same download on Steam in under an hour.

Elden Ring 1.10] Performance issues on Low Preset
I'm playing Elden Ring Ver 1.10 on Low 720p on a RTX 3070 on Low and I'm using a mod that should unlock the FPS to more than 60fps.
Problem is I still get around 60 FPS. I know the mod works because previously my game was capped at 60 fps and would go no further than 61 before the title menu but now it does go beyond 61 but no more than 63.
I've seen people get better performance on 1080p High from the same card.
It seems I'm losing performance and at least on low 720p, I should be getting way better performance.
I've tried a bunch of things from this website including playing around with the environmental variables in Lutris:
https://linux-gaming.kwindu.eu/index.php?title=Main_Page#Performance
I've also tried a bunch of random things from linux_gaming reddit.
I've tried different Wine/Wine-GE versions which made the biggest change but only negatively.
I've taken out any other mods off to test whether they were interfering and it made no difference.
Any help or ideas on how to improve performance would be appreciated. Thank you.

Brothers and sisters, my time has finally come. I'm doing my part.
Apex flickers on anything after Proton 9 (earlier versions don't work anymore)
I'm on Wayland (tried Hyprland, KDE, Gnome), NVIDIA 550 and Linux-zen 6.8 (downgrading to 545 does not help) - the issues started after the bug in Apex was hotfixed and happens in all Proton versions including GE. Windowed mode on Wayland or any mode on X11 works fine.
Anyone else having similar issues?

[Question] updated Heroic and wine size
After just updating Heroic.
When I look at Settings > Wine Manager, it looks like this.
I don't think the capacity of the previously installed version of ge-8.26 was that large...
Is this normal?

Nvidia surprisingly announces next generation GPUs
It seems Nvidia is entering a completely new mindset, announcing many surprising changes today. Most notable is that they've announced the RTX 6090 graphics card, which is set to release late tonight for $401.
This is a surprise attack against AMD, who stated "We have decided to stop producing CPUs and instead focus on our battle against Nvidia. We don't want to stretch ourselves thin, especially given how lengthy this war has been".
Intel, who has had strategic yet low-powered graphics positions in many other Manufacturers such as the ASUS Islands, Republic of Lenovo, and until recently the Apple Federation, finally entered the war with the release of the Arc series a few years back. Today, they commented that " Nvidia simply is too arrogant. They don't realize that we have the people in our favor, whilst they continue to alienate their own supporters. Its only a matter of time before they fall".
Nvidia did not respond for comment, but it is clear that they feel threatened and will continue to harass the smaller Manufacturers, possibly going as far as a hostile takeover. For customers though, this is a massive win.
Be sure to check your calendars and clear your schedule tonight to celebrate the launch!

Wine 9.4 Wayland vs XWayland - Cyberpunk 2077 / AC Vallhala | 1080p High FSR Q Cap60FPS | RX6600 | Linux
Advice on switching from Nvidia to AMD
I've gotten fed up with Nvidia's BS when it comes to Linux and the pain of their drivers. I've been looking particularly at a 7900 XT and I want to know if it's well supported in linux or if there are other better alternatives. I'm coming from a 3060 so I would like any suggested GPUs to be more powerful.
I have no use for nvidia specific features so I'm not exactly losing anything going from Nvidia to AMD.
Also, I know AMD's drivers are built into the kernel itself but is there any specific drivers I need for gaming or will AMDGPU suffice?

Raving about 8BitDo Ultimate
TLDR if you're in the market for a gaming controller I cannot recommend the 8BitDo Ultimate enough.
I got this controller a week ago and it has blown me away so much I feel the need to come gush about it here. First of all, it does work out of the box on Linux contrary to a few posts I've seen here. I plug the dock which has the dongle inside via USB and it connects immediately, out the box. Besides that though, I need to rave about what I've come to discover about the controller for its price point. The performance is astonishing, in terms of input latency and response time. It made me realize the Xbox controller I was using before had me compensating for latency, the Ultimate has 4ms average according to XInputTest when wireless (which works with WINE btw.) 4ms on a non-overclocked wireless $70 controller is insane, pro tier performance. No other controller that has hall effect sticks is as accurate/responsive besides the Vader 3 Pro, which I do not recommend...I've ordered 3 and returned them all because the sticks came with deadzones and QC issues. I also tried the 8BitDo Pro 2 after hearing great things, but the input latency was a dealbreaker, I was missing jumps in Mario. Ultimate really lives up to its name in my experience, it could be $150 and I believe would still be worth the price.

Stardew Valley starts but flashes
Good morning guys! I have just installed Nobara and after installation everything is ok. I can't getStardew valley to run properly though. The game starts but always flashes as you can see in the video. What does it depend on? I'm trying to run it with Lutris (selecting both Wine and proton) and also adding it to non steam games via steam play. Unfortunately the result is the same What’s to do?

Metal Helsinger runs like a charm, but both prior to in-game cinematics and before each stage, kind of getting this screen all over again, sometimes, breaks the flow of a dialogue and just moves on. Any workaround?. Proton 8.0-5 , up-to-date PopOS....
r2modman not working on bookworm debian
Basically the title. I use the appimage, it doesn't work, I use the .deb file, I think it installs but crashes every time I open it (can't check which it was right now).
Is this a me-specifically problem or a known problem, and if it's a known problem is it a "sucks but can't do anything :/" problem or a "hey you need to do this to fix it" problem? Is there an alternative to r2modman that works on debian? I wanna play modded lethal company and stuff lol
I'm in the car right now so I can't produce bug reports or anything until in a few hours but I'll forget to post this if I wait so I'm gonna do it now. Basically posting on the off chance that this is a wide known issue with a fix that can just be named off the top of somebody's head.
ETA: added last sentence

Bazzite Troubles
Installed Bazzite on my desktop and I forgot to set up a user profile and now I can't get in. Is there a default that the OS uses when you're as dumb as me?
