Where would be the best place to set up in lutris
To use the same startup options as Steam, it is better to put them in the arguments or in the environment variables?
While researching, I saw that some places show to put it in variables and others to put it in arguments, I ended up getting a bit confused.

Good controllers with linux support
My current controller is dying (xbox one pc controller). And I'm looking for its new replacement. I'm looking for a controller that works on linux, but so far I've read contradictory information for various controllers about linux compatibility.
What I'm looking for:
- xinput type controller.
- Works without steaminput.
- Not too small. My hands are not enormous, but a bit large. I've read that the new xbox controllers are smaller than they used to be. Same goes for the 8bitdo (ultimate type) controllers, they seem to be on the smaller side, which I fear might be uncomfortable. The xbox one controller size and shape is great.
- Wireless is not a necessity. I'm not against it, but it's not the most important factor.
- I'm on Fedora (in case that matters)
- Plug and play would be better, but not necessary.
- Importantly, it needs to work without having to update firmware or using software via Windows. I don't have a Windows machine nor partition, and I don't want to use a VM just for that (and would rather avoid having to use Wine just for that).
- Hall effect / TMR would be nice.
From what I've gathered: 8bitdo ultimate might be too small. New xbox controller seems a bit too small, no hall effect, and sometimes requires updates via windows, so this is not good. Not sure about the Gamesir g7 controllers: some people seem to have issues on linux and some people mention needing to use windows software, they do seem nice otherwise.
Usage: steam games, some games outside of steam, and some amateur gamedev with Godot.
Any ideas, recommendations, feedbacks?

Nvidia drivers not seeming to work for catchy os
I recenty decided to give catchy os a try as a distro and did all of the work installing everything but i found that my nvidia driers dont seem to be working properly. It says they are installed but when i connect my diplays to my gpu instead of the motheboard i cant separate them and cant go above 60hz on them. Tried reinstalling the drivers but not working either. Wondering if there is something i could do to fix this or maybe try to reinstall the entire os?

FSR4.0.2 seems to have performance similar to 4.0.0 and significantly better than 4.0.1 on RDNA3
I'm getting ~2.7-2.8 upscaling latency at quality level (66.7% resolution) FSR4.0.2 upscaling at 1440p with Optiscaler in No Rest for the Wicked and Expedition 33 on my 7900xt. I don't remember exactly what I got before, but based on another user's comment 960p -> 1440p on 4.0.0 used to take over 3ms, even as much as 3.5. I'm running a mesa development build (25.3) and maybe that is partly responsible for this improvement, but I think it's safe to say that we're no longer in the territory of "you have to use an older fsr4 version or risk a significant performance hit"

Gears reloaded working out the gate.
And my 3+ year saga of blindly buying games I want and then just working on Linux continues.
It seems like Windows users are having a lot of crashes though. While linking accounts seems to be broken for all it causes a game crash on Windows.
HDR does have a washed out look big going on with it but HDR is just an extra for me, I could take it or leave it
Frame rate has cap choices of 30, 60, 90, 120, 144, 240 but can be uncapped in the settings file by modifying the smooth frame rate value.
Campaign on mixed settings nets me 240nfps give or take and 300~400 in multiplayer on a 7900xtx/9950x3d rig.
There are some hitches that seem to be related to texture streaming but that's about it.
How's your guy's experience?

SSD being slow on linux
Hello everyone, for a little bit of context I must say I am using Pop-OS 22 with gnome DE and X server. I play some games that I used to play on the same computer but with windows, and the loading time has sky rocketed, although the gameplay itself is performance wise equivalent or even better.
My architecture is nvme holding on my / , ssd 3'5 1 for /home and ssd 3'5 2 for the games like steam etc...
But there is not only in games that it takes ages. I will list a bunch of things that are really slow to start: - Mozilla Firefox on the launch takes up to 5 minutes for the tabs to be loaded and accessible (I've tried the safe mode without extension and it's the same result, I also looked on etc/hosts but I don't know what to look for on this) - Steam games like DayZ takes ages to login into the game, and Guild Wars 2 launched either via lutris or steam is the same result for each loading screen, except the first one is the longest one - Steam application, installed in .deb has struggle with player profiles, I can't see them anymore and get a error code -100 instead. Aswell as the event or fest on steam, the frames where games should be presented are empty. I bilieve it is some kind of embedded frame and there is somehow a port thing issue ?
I cannot convince my friends to hop on linux with thoses issues of mine it's not selling it right.
Now that you have a bit of context I have already made some scan of my disks because on a linux gaming discord someone tried to investigate that way so here are the results, he said nothing was odd ``` [ 7.761473] ata6.00: supports DRM functions and may not be fully accessible [ 7.761475] ata6.00: ATA-11: Samsung SSD 860 QVO 1TB, RVQ01B6Q, max UDMA/133 [ 7.761884] ata6.00: 1953525168 sectors, multi 1: LBA48 NCQ (depth 32), AA [ 7.765519] ata6.00: Features: Trust Dev-Sleep NCQ-sndrcv [ 7.765782] ata6.00: supports DRM functions and may not be fully accessible [ 7.770058] ata6.00: configured for UDMA/133 [ 7.780124] ahci 0000:03:00.1: port does not support device sleep [ 7.780280] scsi 5:0:0:0: Direct-Access ATA Samsung SSD 860 1B6Q PQ: 0 ANSI: 5 [ 7.780604] sd 5:0:0:0: Attached scsi generic sg2 type 0 [ 7.780621] ata6.00: Enabling discard_zeroes_data [ 7.780633] sd 5:0:0:0: [sdc] 1953525168 512-byte logical blocks: (1.00 TB/932 GiB) [ 7.780646] sd 5:0:0:0: [sdc] Write Protect is off [ 7.780650] sd 5:0:0:0: [sdc] Mode Sense: 00 3a 00 00 [ 7.780664] sd 5:0:0:0: [sdc] Write cache: enabled, read cache: enabled, doesn't support DPO or FUA [ 7.780703] sd 5:0:0:0: [sdc] Preferred minimum I/O size 512 bytes [ 7.781036] ata6.00: Enabling discard_zeroes_data [ 7.788206] sdc: sdc1 [ 7.789125] sd 5:0:0:0: [sdc] supports TCG Opal [ 7.789128] sd 5:0:0:0: [sdc] Attached SCSI disk [ 7.791631] r8169 0000:22:00.0 enp34s0: renamed from eth0 [ 7.791720] input: Kingston HyperX Alloy Core RGB as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:08.1/0000:28:00.3/usb3/3-1/3-1:1.0/0003:0951:16DD.0001/input/input2 [ 7.842297] hid-generic 0003:0951:16DD.0001: input,hidraw0: USB HID v1.11 Keyboard [Kingston HyperX Alloy Core RGB] on usb-0000:28:00.3-1/input0 [ 7.842845] input: Kingston HyperX Alloy Core RGB Mouse as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:08.1/0000:28:00.3/usb3/3-1/3-1:1.1/0003:0951:16DD.0002/input/input3 [ 7.842977] input: Kingston HyperX Alloy Core RGB System Control as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:08.1/0000:28:00.3/usb3/3-1/3-1:1.1/0003:0951:16DD.0002/input/input4 [ 7.893488] input: Kingston HyperX Alloy Core RGB Consumer Control as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:08.1/0000:28:00.3/usb3/3-1/3-1:1.1/0003:0951:16DD.0002/input/input5 [ 7.893554] input: Kingston HyperX Alloy Core RGB Keyboard as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:08.1/0000:28:00.3/usb3/3-1/3-1:1.1/0003:0951:16DD.0002/input/input6 [ 7.893637] hid-generic 0003:0951:16DD.0002: input,hidraw1: USB HID v1.11 Mouse [Kingston HyperX Alloy Core RGB] on usb-0000:28:00.3-1/input1 [ 7.893731] input: Corsair CORSAIR KATAR PRO XT Gaming Mouse as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:01.3/0000:03:00.0/usb1/1-1/1-1:1.0/0003:1B1C:1BAC.0003/input/input7

easiest way to bind left click onto your mouse wheel?
hello everybody, i just joined this sub and i've been playing with Linux Mint for about 7 months now.
i pretty much only play Path of Exile (+poe2) and i was wondering how to bind left click onto my cheap ass Logitech G305's scroll wheel?
on windows i've used x mouse button control or whatever and it works fine.
so wheel up = left click, wheel down = left click
bonus for adding a slight delay that the server wont kick me.
TY

Best Linux distro for a GTX 1070 that works out of the box?
Hello,
I got an old computer:
- i3-6100 - MSI B150M PRO VDH - GTX 1070
It is mainly for work, Unity 3D, visual studio, blender and photoshop.
I will install steam on it too, so it will be for making and playing games. So my question is:
what is the best linux distro to work with this GTX 1070 out of the box?
I read a few posts that said that the drivers are not supported anymore and that there are some problems due to the GPU itself no being correctly exploited, i wonder if there is something new that would save me, as it is my working machine i need a distro that recognize my hardware out of the box, so the switch takes me the minimum possible time.
Also, the distro needs to be the more "professional" possible so i can keep updating my softwares without problems.
Any ideas ?
Thanks,
Paradoks
