Hi,

since the original TDU does not run well on my Windows I tried to install it on Nobara. Turns out I cannot even get it to install from disc.

I tried by using the "autoinstaller" from Lutris, but the game installer crashes with errorcode 17152. The installer crashes at the same time (copying the game files) when launching with Wine.

If I use an already installed version of the game (installed on Windows), the game won't start because it thinks that there is no CD inserted, even though there is.

Anyone has an idea?

Both pics were taken while I was playing World of Warcraft.

The 1st pic was taken when just standing outside of the city, running 144 FPS (capped).

The 2nd pic was in an epic bg - 40v40 people, a ton of special effects. I usually get 13-30 FPS in these games. I understand that my PC is old and I am not expecting more from it.

Recently one of my GPU fans stopped spinning, so I replaced both the original ones with new, bigger fans. I had some problems with the setup and ended up reinstalling the GPU driver. I do not remember the usages prior to that change, but I remember it always made sense - CPU near 100, GPU low so CPU is too weak. Or gpu temp too high, so it limits it's power. But for current state, I have no explanation.

The only thing i see out of order is the RAM. I don't think it was getting that full before, but even this does not explain the low usages since it is the same in both cases.

Could anyone please help me understand what is going on, or how to troubleshoot? I don't even know what I should be looking for here.

So ive been using mint for the past like day or so and ive installed steam recently, but for some reason it just doesn't wanna add my NTFS drive. Thing is: that never happened to me before. When i used linux it allowed me to use my NTFS drive just fine. Mint, EOS, And Nobara, they all let me do so without fail! But i reinstalled mint and now it doesnt wanna add my drive anymore. I will not be using any external drives as i am incapable of doing so at the moment.

I've tried editing the fstab file but it didnt work. I've tried installing flatseal to allow steam to use my drive, it also didnt work. And mounting it to a different place also doesnt work.

do feel free to include windows stuff inside, im dualbooting! (win 10)

Windows is starting to get more and more annoying, so I want to get rid of it completely. I've ran Ubuntu for a few years in the past on an MSI GT70 laptop, which ran absolutely fine, even when gaming. I have an Asus Tuf Gaming A16 FA607PI now (Ryzen 7845HX and RTX 4070) and in Windows, performance is amazing. When idle or browsing, it's quiet and low temperatures. With Ghelper instead of Armoury Crate I can finetune the fan curves to keep temperatures and sound well balanced.

Now I had decided to try Nobara, on the desktop it works just fine, with AsusCTL (ROG control) I tuned the fan curves and set the CPU power limits as well. But for some reason, when gaming for about 10 minutes, the CPU suddenly runs at 1GHz and reaching 100 degrees. GPU at about 87 degrees. Removing all power limits back to default I see the CPU around 1.5-2GHz in games, but the laptop sounds like a jet engine. In Windows, the CPU runs just fine at 3.5-4.5GHz in games.

Performance is usually fine for a few minutes, apart from some games where I see my fps at 1/3 or halved compared to Windows, but other than that it seems OK.

I double checked the Nobara updater to make sure everything was updated as well, and drivers were the most recent.

Is there anything else I can try? Maybe a different distro? Or other tools to monitor CPU/GPU? The install is on a separate SSD so easy to swap installs.

As the title suggests, im considering sticking up a middle finger to the modern windows OS ecosystem and modern hardware ecosystems and running linux on a thinkpad, idk which exactly but not looking for anything over $100 ish dollars (would enjoy something like the T470). I know that limits performance but ultimately i just want something basic for word processing and uni work, with a VM for windows based GIS software, and some light games that are easy to run or older.

Ultimately, i used Ubuntu to varying success on a chromebook in 2016. I have come to the conclusion mint might be the best choice now since i havent tinkered in years? Or Bazzite (even though its more limited it seems very plug and play) any help is appreciated

Since Microsoft almost killed Xbox and their marketing and scheduling is dead for sure - there are 3 games releasing in about the same time - Ninja Gaiden 4, Keeper and Outer World 2, so they can compete with themselves better.

First two works with 0 issues on 4080 arch, so if you're thinking about getting these on Steam - you should be fine. No login to Xbox Live required. All are UE5 games, but at least Ninja Gaiden 4 seems to be well optimized for high fps.

Keeper seems to be a very unique Double Fine game - art direction and narrative seems great to me.

Sadly not all features work compared to windows, but i'm suprised by the results.
Naturally wayland won't let me to track mouse movement outside the game's (small) window so the score multiplier doesn't work correctly, though i have some ideas on how to fix that.

The demo is out if someone wants to give it a try, and i'd appreciate a wishlist:

The subject says it all.

So since World of Tanks 2.0 I've had this issue on Linux. Before 2.0 I used to play it through Wine or Proton (added as a non-steam game to steam) without any issues. Then they released 2.0 and I thought to give it a go again. The Wargaming gamecenter installs and works perfectly fine. Game installs fine. Launches fine. Works. Everything is good.

Except that in a battle, randomly between 2 and 7 minutes I get disconnected from the server and have to reconnect through the login screen to continue. As you can imagine, it's very annoying and often game breaking.

I can't find anything in the logs. I can't for the life of me figure why.

I've tried 3 different distros (was doing distro hopping a bit so I took the chance for this too). OpenSUSE Tumbleweed. (Previous install of 2 years, worked perfectly before 2.0). Bazzite Linux. CachyOS (currently in use).

And since these days the steam version actually allows you to login to your WG account, I tried this yesterday. Game works perfectly fine regardless of Proton version used...

But it will still disconnect mid-game. This is the only game that does this. It works perfectly well on Windows on the same machine.

Any ideas? Any specific logs I should check etc? Would love to spend some time in-game...

I am so confused by lutris umu, i use protonup-qt to install newest GE-Proton into steam, and lutris normally detected, but the GE-Proton's github repo mention that don't use GE-Proton outside of steam.

My question is when i select GE-Proton(the installed inside steam by using protonup one not the lutris one), will lutris auto use umu backend and set the umu's proton path to what i select in runner?
