A few months ago I swapped my 7900 XT for a 4090. I frequently hear people complaining about NVIDIA, but my experience has been the opposite — more games run better on NVIDIA for me.

Grayzone Warfare, my favorite game at the moment, ran like crap on AMD. The game stuttered so much that I couldn’t even move my character one meter without it becoming unplayable. After I installed my new NVIDIA card, all issues disappeared. Has anyone else had a similar experience?

Based on my nvidia experince the nvidia hate on linux seems unfounded for me at least its an better experience then amd

offcorse an 4090 is better but still meny games went from unplayebale on amd to playebale on nvidia

This is my system as of today:

- OS: Linux Mint 22.3 - Cinnamon (64-bit)
- CPU: 12th Gen Intel© Core™ i5-12500T
- GPU: Intel UHD Graphics 770 (integrated GPU)
- RAM/Memory: 8 GB
- Storage: 512 GB
- Steam version is from the official repository (via sudo install command)

What I checked and tried to do:

- Verified the game files
- Uninstalled and re-installed the game
- Tried all the Proton versions for compatibility
- Checked my drivers for updates (its updated)
- Tried to start the game in low graphics
- Tried various commands like "gamemoderun %command%" and "PROTON_NO_ESYNC=1 %command%" etc

I tried to run the game on Linux for the first time a few months ago, it crashed just like it does now. I've since deleted and re-installed Steam, did everything above, and nothing fixed this issue.

Is my hardware the problem here, or is this game just not stable on Linux/Proton? I also checked on ProtonDB and I'm surprised that it's considered a very compatible game for Linux, I've had the opposite experience so far.

- My system info from terminal output: https://pastebin.com/4zm9kkWC
- Steam Proton Log: https://www.mediafire.com/file/bkqa18lutu1t00f/Disco_Elysium_Proton_Log%252C_April_9%252C_2026.txt/file

Any help would be gladly appreciated, thank you.

Please help! So far Ive been really happy with my switch to CachyOS however HDR on all games is not working even after adding PROTON_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 PROTON_ENABLE_HDR=1 %command% to my launch options.

Am I missing something?

I moved to linux 3-4 months ago and at the time genshin worked with bottles on soda 9.0.1 with no extra things, but in 6.4, the game didn't work with bottles. i tried heroic and lutris, both with a bunch of weird configs and more than 15 proton runner versions, none worked. all 3 launchers did not give any logs other than that the process got killed, i tried steam too a while ago but it did not work, i tried twintail launcher just now to see if it would do anything with multiple new runners and nothing worked again. this issue started when i was on xubuntu, i moved to ubuntu cinnamon and nothing changed. it's been a while of on and off troubleshooting but as evident, none has worked.

Looks like they may have pushed an update out into Proton Experimental.

DLSS FG also appears to be working.

Denuvo, EA App, Rockstar, others. Curious what's actually breaking things for people versus what's just theoretical concern.

I found that the flatpack version of the game I couldn't join steamlobbies by typing steam steam://joinlobby/5538.... and my browser didn't like me following join game links.
Between that, accidentally clicking the wrong steam from applications menu to see an empty library, and wanting to do things the more correct way, I decided to copy my stuff from flatpack to dnf version,

I moved the data over as I had 698G and didn't have extra space for a copy. If you have the space you might try cp -a or rsync -avh though maybe without the v if you don't want to see an overwhelming list of thousands of filenames.
The GUI might work, I didn't try it.

mv ~/.var/app/com.valvesoftware.Steam/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common ~/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/ mv ~/.var/app/com.valvesoftware.Steam/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/appmanifest_*.acf ~/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/ mv ~/.var/app/com.valvesoftware.Steam/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/compatdata ~/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/ mv ~/.var/app/com.valvesoftware.Steam/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/shadercache ~/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/

I purposely avoided: libraryfolders.vdf, "downloading" folder, and "temp" folder. As they were mentioned to be auto-regnerated and likely cause issues.
I also ran chmod -R u+rw ~/.local/share/Steam/ just to be safe.

I removed the flatpak via flatpost, the old shortcut on Desktop was still there so I deleted it and added one for dnf version from the Applications menu.

Steam did re-verify some games and re-synced some cloud saves. One of my games re-compiled vulkan shaders but overall seems to have saved me hours of downloading.

Battle.net runs, however whenever I run it, it gives me this error. Here are the steps I took to install it:

1. Downloaded the setup.exe from battle.net and ran it through Steam as a non-Steam game using Proton
2. After installing it to the same drive that Ubuntu is installed on, I changed the path on Steam to the Launcher.exe
3. Logged in and I get this error, so I can't install any of the games that I have.

please help. I'm still trying to learn how to do all of this but I'm not sure what I did wrong. i just wanna play some starcraft man

I am a compete nooby to Linux Mint. I wanted to play HoYo games, so I downloaded the Twin Tail launcher. I have the game file already installed from when I was using Windows. I located the folders and loaded them into the launcher. the game loaded, and when I tried to open it, the game slowed down to a frame a sec. I can't begin to understand why the launcher doesn't work.
