Game freezing at random times
Overwatch 2 started freezing randomly. My ram usage and cpu usage are fine. I experienced total freezing before due to ram, but this time it was only the game. The whole system froze a bit too but I was able to alt tab and kill the game. During this cpu and ram was normal. When the game froze it jumped back to a previous menu screen (still frozen), if this has anything to do with it.

Is working the FAKE Xbox One Wireless Adapter on Fedora 41?
Perhaps the adapter is detected, but when I hold down the button, nothing happens, although the small white Chinese light should start blinking.
I'm not a super expert in Linux, but this repository apparently could not help me with my probrem: https://github.com/atar-axis/xpadneo.git

Armored Core VI can't run anymore due to EAC ; "Failed to get the process' path"
Hello! I wanted to get back into Armored Core VI after not playing it for a long time, but it seems that something broke following system upgrades since I last played it.
I'm on EndeavourOS/Plasma 6/Wayland, using asus-linux's custom linux-g14 kernel version 6.13, nvidia-open-dkms 570, and have tried several Proton versions, from Experimental to base Proton 9 and 8 to GE-Proton 9 and 8. I also installed the EAC Runtime.
Yet the issue remains: when I launch the game, EAC will try to load and give me an error saying "Failed to get the process' path". I'm kind of at a loss here. Some people I saw when googling suggested to switch to flatpak Steam because that version has patches to glibc that EAC needs, but apparently these fixes were added to glibc in 2.36 or so and I'm at 2.40sometingr and it still doesn't work. I also tried the fix suggested by the top ProtonDB reporter, adding a steam_appid.txt file in the work directory but it didn't seem to help.
Any idea what I can try, save of trying flatpak anyway?

Help with finding a distro
I’m building a pc and when I looked into installing Linux I am seeing that not all motherboards support it or at least makes it hard to install. Also it appears armory crate does not work on Linux.
Is my motherboard compatible and how can I install drivers?
I have Asus Prime B550 motherboard

I'm having terrible performance on Heroic on Flatpak
I'm having trouble running SWAT 4 and BO2 on Plutonium. On Flatpak these games can't reach 20 fps, but runs fine on AppImage or from the AUR.
Have anyone had this problem before?

I came across something called red ribbon linux, can someone explain what it is?
I have an old ps3 fat, I don't know what I'm gonna do with it so I googled (ps3 linux) and to my surprise it is real, what does this os run? Is it still usable? And should I install it or is it not worth it?

Trouble when booting with monitor connected to GPU
Hi, I think this is an issue that has been cited, but I can't find any solution still. If I boot my Ubuntu 24.04.02 PC with a monitor connected to the gpu, nothing shows on screen, I get a black screen with no grub menu access. If I boot with the motherboard, I can boot fine, and then switch when it's already on to a GPU display. If I boot with both a GPU port and the motherboard connected it doesn't work either, I get a black screen forever and I never get to GRUB.
- I have the nvidia drivers version 550, and the gpu doesn't seem to be malfunctioning. I tried playing a few games from Steam and they're working great, except from the annoyance of having to boot, turn off the monitar, disconnect the motherboard, and then connect the gpu and turn the monitor back on, and readjust the display refresh rate every time (any other sequence doesn't work).
- It's an MSI motherboard, it doesn't show any logo or anything, the first thing I'm able to see is GRUB normallly.
- I tried adding nvidia-drm modeset=1 both in grub and to nvidia.conf.
- I checked my bios, I have Initiate Graphic Adapter = PEG and Integrated Graphics set to UMA Auto.
- I tried disabling integrated graphics entirely but it kind of broke my boot completely, I ended up resinstalling ubuntu.
The few changes I tried didn't make any difference. I honestly don't know much about GPUs in Linux and have this machine only since a few days. Any suggestions are much appreciated

Sparking Zero freezes after startup on Bazzite
Dragon Ball Sparking Zero always freezes when I press start game, and then my monitors stop detecting any signal from my computer. Is there a way to fix this? I'm on the latest stable version of Bazzite, and I recently upgraded to the 9070 XT.

Help with some games and gpu settings
So i'm trying to play cyberpunk with bottles since i've it on gog.
My pc specs are a ryzen 5 3600 as cpu, plait 3070 jetstream oc as gpu, and 16gb of ram. I'm curretly using arch and hyprland (btw).
Kernel is 6.13.6, driver are 570.124.04, tried with both closed and open with same result.
The game run perfectly, but i have been noticing something strage, using proton 9-25
• no matter the graphic preset, my gpu is always at 80°, dlss doesn't seems to help either; • Gpu usage is at 100% even with the lowest settings; • My fan's gpu spin at 2.3/2.4k rpm, but if i change the curve, let's i bring it down to 1.4k rpm, temps stays at 80 (i don't know if hotspot changes, so if you have any tips to how to check that i'm all ears :))
The same happens with marvel rivals, using proton hotfix.
Am i doing something wrong? Am i missing something?
Thanks in advice!

Poppy Playtime Fatal error.
Basically I got chapter 2 and wanted to play the game, but Poppy Playtime just doesn't launch and just says fatal error, so I just tried different proton versions and I discovered that proton 5 and before shows up a install menu for Visual C++ but ends up crashing, because it couldn't install it and bringing me back on step 1.
Also tried -dx11 and -dx12

Is there an easy way to map keyboard inputs to a controller?
I've been trying to play trackmania united forever without needing to use steam, mostly because steam is getting a little too uncomfortable with only 8 gigs of ram. The problem is that this game somehow can't map stuff to the dpad, and I this isn't the type of game where I can just use different bindings for a different game because I've built a lot of muscle memory that I don't want to waste.
I could just keep playing on steam since it has steam input, but I just don't want to. And I've been trying to find somekind of solution that doesn't require a mind numbing setup. I also want it to be automated and all. Like I click play on lutris and it does it, and when I quit, it quits itself.

Trade NVIDIA for AMD?
Hi!
I've got the chance to trade an NVIDIA 4070 super for an AMD 7900GRE FOUNDERS EDITION and get an extra $150 for the trade. Mostly, I use the PC for some gaming and lightweight video editing. When it comes to AI, I only use Foocus which seems to also work on AMD GPUs.
So, would you advise me to make the deal? Does linux run better on AMD?
