I just recently installed my Linux for the first time onto my MSI Crosshair 18. I tried launching Deltarune. I previously had a Deltarune save file so I said okay to loading into chapter 4. It played the sound effect for that (Although after trying something it stopped that from happening even after being reversed!) And after that no sound plays from Deltarune or anywhere else.

This issue was similar to something that happened to me with Terraria and the fix was to add this to the launch options: SDL_AUDIODRIVER=alsa %command%

However when I tried that in Deltarune, no sound played and even after getting rid of that from the launch options I still don't hear the sound for selecting chapter 4.

(Also please explain things like I'm five because I literally have been using Linux for about a week lol)

I'd be glad to provide more details and will add them as edits.

Hi everyone! I switched to Linux Mint 22.3 about two weeks ago and I'm trying to set a custom resolution for CS2. On Windows, I used the NVIDIA Control Panel to do this, but I can't find a way to do it here. Does anyone know how to set custom resolutions on Linux? Thanks for the help!

Hi everyone,

I recently made the jump to Linux (Bazzite to Mint to CachyOS) and, like many newcomers, I’ve been obsessed with getting my gaming setup just right. One thing that kept stressing me out was managing game prefixes and making sure my saves/configs were safe before I started tinkering with Wine/Proton settings.

I realized I needed a way to quickly "freeze" a game's state, so I decided to stop lurking and actually build something.

What is WarpVault? It’s a Python-based utility (built with PySide6) designed to automate and manage compressed backups of your game prefixes.

Key Features:

• One-Click Backups: Quickly compress and archive prefixes before you try a new Proton GE version or a risky mod.
• GUI-First Design: I built this to be easy to use with a proper interface, rather than just running scripts in the terminal.
• Automation: It handles the compression and organization so you don't have to manually hunt through your compatdata folders every time.

The "Noob" Disclaimer: This is my first real project and my first time sharing anything like this on Reddit. I’m still learning the ropes of Linux gaming and Python development, so the code might not be "pro" level yet, but it’s been a lifesaver for my own library.

I’d love to hear what you guys think, or if there are any features you think a tool like this is missing. If you have any suggestions, I'm all ears!

Hey everyone,

I've been building a native Linux mod manager called Anvil Organizer. It's inspired by Mod Organizer 2 but built from scratch in Python/Qt6 — no Wine, no Proton wrapper.

What it does:

- Symlink-based deploy — your game folder stays clean

- 35+ supported games (Skyrim, Fallout 4, Cyberpunk 2077, BG3, Elden Ring, Starfield...)

- NexusMods integration with one-click downloads (nxm:// handler)

- FOMOD installer support

- LOOT integration for load order

- Mod conflict detection with visual highlighting

- Profiles & separators for organizing your mod list

- Automatic framework detection (Script Extender, ASI Loader, CET...)

- F4SE/SFSE/SKSE64 Proton shims — no manual DLL copying

- REDmod deploy for Cyberpunk 2077

- Native script merger (no Windows tool needed)

- 7 languages

- Works on Steam Deck

Switching from Windows? Anvil includes a built-in migration tool called GoodbyeWindows / HelloLinux — it imports your existing MO2 mod setup so you don't have to start from

scratch.

Hello everyone. I recently built a new computer and decided to switch to Linux and see how that fared for me. I'm using CachyOS. I only have a few games installed and they were working great yesterday. Today, The Outlast Trials threw an easy anti-cheat error saying that it couldn't find the process. I'm new to Linux in general and am having a hard time tracking this down. Here is some pertinent info from what I remember.

I did run a system update this morning. I suspect that may have been part of it but I'm not certain. It looks like I'm running kernel version 6.19.11-1-cachyOS. I think yesterday I was on 6.19.10-x.

For this game I verified file integrity as well as uninstalled and reinstalled it.

I think Steam is defaulting to Proton Experimental. For this game specifically I did try CachyOS's implementation as well as Proton 9.05(?). I also tried Proton Hotfix

I found that there was a Proton EAC package in Steam so I downloaded and installed that.

My Steam games are installed on a separate drive. It does appear to be mounted correctly. I did unmount and remount it.

Restarted my computer as well as shutdown completely.Resident evil 4 and Cyberpunk 2077 still work. I'm aware that they may not use EAC, but at least it's good to know not everything is broken.

ptrace_scope has a value of 1. I heard that different values can negatively affect things like EAC.

The game is listed as Platinum in the ProtonDB. And it did work yesterday.

That's everything I can remember. I don't have much experience with Linux troubleshooting so hopefully this is enough to get started. Does anyone have any thoughts on how to resolve the error?

Im one of the many windows refugees trying to move but I have ran into an issue with the gaming side of things. I have a NAS set up in ntfs, and am running bazzite kde and found that steam won't let me map my NAS that has all my games on it. it just fails. some googling tells me this is due to the NAS being NTFS other googling tells me its a Linux issue.

anyone ran into this before and can suggest a solution? im also willing to leave bazzite, hardly attached to it yet if there's a better solution out there.

Hello everyone, I have been using CachyOS for the past few days, but I’m having a problem. My monitor (which is actually a TV) has been having issues with frame pacing because it’s only 60 Hz and doesn’t have G-Sync or FreeSync support.

I’ve been getting crazy stuttering in games like Marvel Rivals. On Windows, I used RivaTuner to lock the FPS and eliminate tearing. Here on Cachyos, I don’t have tearing like I did on Windows, but I’m still getting severe stuttering. Even when I cap the FPS to 60 in-game, the problem remains exactly the same.

I tried using the Linux alternative to RivaTuner that I found online MangoHud with GoOverlay, but the stuttering continues even after capping the fps. I don’t know why this is happening or if there’s another setting I need to tweak. For now the game only goes smooth if I have vsync on the game settings turned on which adds input delay. please I'd appreciate it if you'd help me on this one

Hi,

In Debian 13, in X11, I get the message:

Steam Broadcasting is not currently supported on (my system)

Am I doing something wrong or is this just the state of Steam on Linux?
Googling gives responses that don't seem to apply to Steam on Linux.

Update:
The game runs fine. It's just the ability to broadcast that doesn't work.

Running a new Fedora 43 KDE install, 6700XT and Ryzen 5500 GE-Proton10-34

Just wanted to see if anyone else is experiencing this issue because I can't find it on protondb or here. Not every time but when I finish a delivery and it goes to save, and most recently when building part of the road, the game will just close, first crash showed a wine error that I didn't take note of (mb), every other time the game just shuts down and the save is lost.

Game runs pretty good maybe a little worse than windows but otherwise normal, ran with mangohud and I'm not getting the unusually high CPU usage that everyone's been talking about

Does anyone know if the latest CachyOS Proton fixes this along with the CPU usage?

launch commands: gamemoderun PROTON_LOG=1 VKD3D_CONFIG=nodxr PROTON_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 PROTON_ENABLE_HDR=1 %command%

Added proton log to try catch the issue next time it happens, added VKD3D_CONFIG=nodxr based on this post hoping it would fix, the crashes have become less frequent but still happening.

Any ideas are appreciated :)

Hi there!

I'm having trouble using HDR at the same time as steam input. When I set the proton commands, HDR works perfectly, but I can play games without native dualsense support because I lose access to steam input. Without the proton arguments, no HDR. Tried gamescope, but game refuses to open unless I use a very barebone argument. What am I doing wrong ?

Custom arguments:

PROTON_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 PROTON_ENABLE_HDR=1 DXVK_HDR=1 ENABLE_HDR_WSI=1 %command%

(HDR works, steam input doesn't)

-----------

gamescope -W 2560 -H 1440 -r 120 -f --hdr -- env PROTON_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 %command%

(game doesn't open)

-------------

gamescope -W 2560 -H 1440 -r 120 -f --hdr -- env DXVK_HDR=1 %command%

(game doesn't open)

------------

gamescope -W 2560 -H 1440 -r 120 -f -- %command%

(game opens, no HDR)

----------

Games with problem: Resident Evil 4 and 7, but any game with steam input needs would probably break

System:

Latest CachyOS with KDE 6.6 (HDR activated on system settings. TV recognizes as HDR)

Dual Sense with recent firmware (updated less than a month agora)

2700X + Vega 56 (Display port to HDMI, Ugreen DP134) + 16GB
