X screen 0 missing from Nvidia X server settings

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 23. August 2025 - 02:15

I tried everything that both Chat GPT and Deepseek suggested, multiple times, but nothing worked, I'm at a loss.

The problem: X screen 0 is missing from the Nvidia X server setting control panel, so I can't adjust any 3D setting of the GPU.

I have Nobara freshly installed and updated, the only thing I changed GPU wise was to choose the "New Features" drivers instead of the default "Production" ones. I though those were the drivers to choose for gaming.

My CPU has integrated graphics by AMD (I'm not sure whether that could be a problem).

How does roblox & steam work

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 23. August 2025 - 01:58

This is all I use my computer for, and I’d like to switch from windows just for fun, but I’ve found that Linux has problems with some games and other software because they’re made for windows. If I do switch to Linux could I run Roblox and play steam games like terraria online, also maybe Fortnite if my pc could even handle it?

Elden Ring Nightreign não abre

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 23. August 2025 - 01:28

Galera tudo bem?
Instalei o Elden Ring Nightreign pela steam, estou usando o Linux Mint (atual), porém o jogo não abre de jeito nenhum, já olhei proton, extensões e tudo parece estar instalado.

Alguém já teve problema parecido?

Solace Creek Demo now for Linux – my mystery horror game

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 22. August 2025 - 23:43

Hey everyone!

I'm an indie dev currently working on a project called SOLACE CREEK – and I just released the Linux build of the demo - showcasing the first ~30min of the game, which you can play right now on Steam!

https://store.steampowered.com/app/3004130/Solace_Creek/

SOLACE CREEK is an atmospheric mystery horror game — a dark mix of LOST, Silent Hill, and Alien Isolation, presented in a PS1-inspired visual style with a strong focus on mood, lore, and creepy vibes.

Any feedback or wishlists would mean a lot — this is my current passion project and I’ve been pouring a lot into it lately. 🙏

Installing Star Wars Battlefront II (Epic Games) on Linux

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 22. August 2025 - 23:30

Hi everyone, I’m trying to install Star Wars Battlefront II (Celebration Edition) from Epic Games but I can’t get it to run on Linux.

Here’s what I’ve tried so far:

  • Heroic Launcher: I was able to install the game, but when I launch it through the EA App I get this error: “Failed to launch game. An error on our end caused the launch to fail. Try again a little later.”
  • Lutris Epic Games installer: the problem here is that Epic Games never opens.
    • At one point I managed to get EA App to launch when trying to install the game from Epic, but as soon as the download starts, EA App crashes every time.
  • Direct EA App installation attempts: if I try to install EA App in any other way (not through Heroic’s installation of Battlefront II), I always get this installer error: “The EA app encountered an error and couldn't finish installing (error code: INST-14-1603).”

So right now I’m stuck — neither launcher seems to behave properly, and I haven’t found a clean way to install it so I can at least play the campaign.

Has anyone here managed to get Battlefront II running on Linux (through Epic)?
I don’t mind if it’s via Heroic, Lutris, or even a manual prefix setup, as long as it works.

Thanks in advance

Need help to play Steam Umamusume JP version

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 22. August 2025 - 22:35

I have steam JP account so I can download and install the game but the game won't start at all. I don't even see the shader loading thing nor game window pop. I've tried adding LANG=ja_JP.UTF-8 %command% to the launch option but it didn't help.

Here is the log file. I can't make heads of how to read the log. https://files.catbox.moe/yjydn4.log

Thinking of switching from windows, need some questions answered.

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 22. August 2025 - 20:29

I've been interested in upgrading to Linux for quite some time now, I'll get into the important questions straight away.
1) Which version of Linux has a clean ui similar to windows in which I'm able to also game and do video editing work on for university.
2) Is there a lot of terminal work / coding involved with said Linux version (If so is it hard to learn)
3) On average how big is the performance boost when switching to Linux. (I'll provide my specs below and am free to offer any other specs that I have not mentioned).
Specs:
Intel i5-10400f
Asus Prime H410M-D
Nvidia RTX 3060ti
16GB Ram
1TB storage
2 monitors.
I'll regularly be checking back to look for any support.

Considering Changing My PC to Linux, Feedback Wanted!

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 22. August 2025 - 19:46

Hi all!

Currently using the latest LTR of Ubuntu on a school/work laptop, and am heavily considering swapping my primary desktop PC at home from Windows 11 to linux (probably also Ubuntu, just am familiar with it). I use my desktop primarily for gaming. Is there really anything I'd be missing as far as changing OSes? Just trying to evaluate it from all angles before making the dive.

Xbox controller behaves like one of the directional sticks is stuck

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 22. August 2025 - 19:39

Hi All,

I’m having an issue with my Xbox controllers where they behave like one of the directional sticks is stuck and the charter in games just spins endlessly.

I’m having this issue with two different Linux distributions and with two different Xbox controllers. One is Nobara with a USB VoYEE Xbox controller clone and the other is Bazzite with the Microsoft Wireless dongle Xbox controller.

It only happens with native Linux games. It happens if they are are installed via Flatpak, RPM or just running binaries directly from an uncompressed tarball or zip. It does not happen when running games using Proton in Steam or Lutris.

Any assistance would be appreciated.

Here’s a YouTube link showing an example if the issue.

[HELP] Wrong in-game resolution (only 3D parts)

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 22. August 2025 - 18:45

This is the second Windows game I try to play with this error: the game seems to run in the correct resolution (the intro videos are in the correct resolution/alignment) but as soon as I get to a menu (rendered, interactive part) the resolution is completely wrong and the image is out of screen.

Relevant information:

Game: Virtua Tennis 4 (same problem with GRID)

OS: cachyOS

WM: Hyprland

Launcher: Lutris

Runner: wine-ge-8-26-x86_64

Gamescope: disabled (nothing changes if enabled and I'm having other problems with it)

Any tips on how to fix this issue?
