Need Help Launching GTA on Steam Deck

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 10. März 2025 - 07:57

Hi everyone, I'm feeling the urge to play singleplayer GTA V again but this time on my Steam Deck. I already own the game through Epic Games and I installed it with the Heroic Launcher.

When I try to launch the game it open up the Rockstar Launcher and it wants me to purchase the game again.

I saw someone else recommended trying to create a .bat folder and place it in the install folder but that didn't work. I also tried signing out from Heroic and signing back in.

I know my Epic and Rockstar accounts are linked because I already tried playing GTA V years ago on my shitty laptop and it worked just fine then.

What are the minimum requirements for using DLSS on linux?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 10. März 2025 - 05:57

I tried running nvidia's native DLSS demo, but I get the error:

INFO: NVIDIA DLSS Minimum driver version was reported as : 0.0
ERROR: NVIDIA DLSS is not available on this hardward/platform., FeatureInitResult = 0xbad00004, info: NVSDK_NGX_Result_FAIL_FeatureNotFound

I have a GPU "RTX 3060" with a driver "550.144.03", a kernel "6.6.75-2", Xorg "1.21.1.15" it seems that this configuration should support basic DLSS. Does anyone know if there are any additional requirements for Linux?

Using Chiaki on Steam Deck for remote play, one issue with a PS5 game

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 10. März 2025 - 05:53

Playing the PS5 through remote play, and on Ninja Gaiden Master collection, when I’m in the game, it asks to press the touch pad and right joystick to exit the game, but for some reason it doesn’t work.

The right joystick and touchpad buttons do work, in the game and other games, but not to get out of that menu. Any advice?

Thanks

Controller stuck in Player 2 Slot

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 10. März 2025 - 03:18

So, I'm using a RetroFighters battlerGC, and up until today it's been running great! Input's good, sticks feels nice. Brings back lots of fun memories playing on the GameCube as a kid. Well, I go to play on Steam today, and notice it's stuck in the Player 2 slot. I don't have any other controller plugged into my computer.

After a bit of consulting with Dr. Google, I ran journalctl -f and plugged in the controller dongle, aaaaaand got this nonsense below. I can see that my system recognizes the controller as a Switch controller, but then IMMEDIATELY also sees it as a nonexistent XBox 360 controller, and puts it, as an XBox controller, into the Player 2 slot. I'm... confused on this one, guys, gals and enby pals. What do you think?

Dual GPU laptop and Distros

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 10. März 2025 - 00:12

I have a Lenovo legion with a 14900hx and a 4080.

I have tried several distros and all have worked just fine for the most part.

What I want to know more about is using the dual GPU function and how which Linux distros are best for that? Or should I disable that and just use the discrete GPU?

Which Distros would you all recommend?

I use the laptop for browsing the web and gaming when I'm away from home.

New game on Steam keeps freezing my computer when I shoot an arrow

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 10. März 2025 - 00:09

Recently I bought this game on Steam called Fly Knight that's in the same style as Old School Runescape, but when I try shooting an arrow, the game freezes. This also happens when an enemy is decapitated. I can't click out of the game and I can't tab out, so I have completely restart my computer. My guess that is it something to do with the OS I'm using (which is Linux Mint) and I wanted to know if there was some way of remedying this. If there is no good fix, I would like for some help letting the developers know about the bug.

Extremely frustrating performance issue affecting every game tested

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 09. März 2025 - 20:42

Hiya

I have an extremely annoying issue, and before i resort to the last ditch solution oh so familiar from my windows days, and reinstall fedora, i want to ask for some advice.

So here's what's up: When i boot up my pc, and go play a game right away, be that on steam or through lutris or whatever, it works perfectly fine, for as long as i need it to. If, however, i boot up the pc and let it sit for a good while, say an hour, before i go play the games suddenly run really poorly, like sub-15 fps poorly. What gives? htop shows the game as using damn near 100% of my cpu. If i reboot the pc, the issue goes away, again provided i play somewhat immediately after reboot.

I'm on Fedora 41 Workstation, Using gnome on wayland. Kernel 6.13.5, but issue has persisted on multiple.
Got a ryzen 5700G, and Radeon RX6600. 32G of ram.

I've tested at least the following games: Prey (2017) on lutris, Arma 3, Hunt: Showdown, Squad, Ready or not and UBOAT on steam.
I've also tried all sorts of stuff to solve this, including several launch arguments on steam, every different proton version known to man, quitting discord, spotify, firefox etc, running (only prey) on lutris through wine instead of proton, with and without gamemode, among others.

The issue doesn't seem to affect any other software, like browsers or the like.

Any help, ideas or wild guesses will be greatly appreciated.

Cannot get FSR to work with Steam games (Valheim)

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 09. März 2025 - 20:29
  • Installed GE proton9-25
  • used said GE proton version to launch game
  • Set launch option: WINE_FULLSCREEN_FSR=1 WINE_FULLSCREEN_FSR_STRENGTH=1 %command%
  • Setup ingame resolution as 1280x720 with fullscreen hoping to scale to 1080p

The game looks like its just rendering at 720p, no upscaling is done what so ever. I confirmed this by removing the launch options and checking the fps when i set resolution to 720p, and i get the exact fps as if i were to use FSR with 720p. With and without FSR it looks 100% identical with identical fps. Im suspecting that FSR is not working? Perhaps any could help out, i feel like ive done everything correct. Im also new to linux and hoping to get some more performance out of my old specs.

Specs:

OS: Debian GNU/Linux 12 (bookworm) x86_64
Kernel: Kernel: 6.1.0-31-amd64
CPU: AMD FX-8350 (8) @ 4.119GHz
GPU: AMD ATI Radeon R9 380
