Here is an article about rumored Valve's console running Windows 11:

https://www.pcgamer.com/hardware/gaming-pcs/valves-rumoured-fremont-steamos-console-spotted-on-geekbench-running-windows-11/

It would be very sad if it's true.

But....

Is SteamOS console even possible if there is no HDMI 2.1 support on Linux on AMD hardware? Is W11 the only option for such console/gaming mini PC right now?
:(

I was thinking to install Bazzite in my machine, but I'm not sure how good is Intel Arc support nowadays. Anyone tried this specific GPU?

Ps: Yes, I'm aware that this iGPU isn't powerful.

Hello, I recently installed Linux Mint on my PC and tried out some games. Unfortunately they are full of microlags. I had this issue before on Pop!_OS and I could solve this by switching to Wayland. I tried it now as well, but sadly, I cannot change the keyboard layout on Wayland and there are other issues as well, such as Steam not opening. My PC has a Ryzen 5 5600 CPU and a RX 6750XT GPU. Also, I have kisak-mesa drivers and xanmod kernel installed. Is there any solution to this problem? Thanks in advance!

I am attempting to get VRR working on my Hyprland desktop. VRR doesn't work in Gnome or KDE, either.

I have tried both monitor= DP-3, 2560x1440@300, 0x0, 1, bitdepth, 10, cm, auto, vrr, 1

and misc {

vrr = 1

}

but running hyprctl monitors always returns vrr: false.

Here is my hyprctl monitors output

Monitor DP-3 (ID 0): 2560x1440@300.00101 at 0x0 description: Microstep MAG 274 X30MV CF0H075500037 make: Microstep model: MAG 274 X30MV serial: CF0H075500037 active workspace: 1 (1) special workspace: 0 () reserved: 0 45 0 0 scale: 1.00 transform: 0 focused: yes dpmsStatus: 1 vrr: false solitary: 0 activelyTearing: false directScanoutTo: 0 disabled: false currentFormat: XRGB2101010 mirrorOf: none

Does anyone have any ideas? I have been able to troubleshoot everything else, except for VRR. Please note that Adaptive-Sync is turned on in my monitor's OSD.

It has been 7 years since Valve revealed Proton, their compatibility layer to run Windows games on Linux systems. What an incredible time it has been.

If I try to play a Unity game with wine, I only have a black screen. If it is 3D I have many black fragments and only a few hints what could be an object.

I am using Debian 13 with [AMD/ATI] Navi 32 [Radeon RX 7700 XT / 7800 XT] and Debian provided drivers (firmware-amd-graphics) on Wayland.

Can someone help me debugging what's going on and how to fix it?

In Hollow Knight i sometimes get this visual bug like in the screenshot. This bug randomly occurs when entering a new room. Sometimes leaving and reentering the room fixes this, but not always. As you can see, the UI is perfectly fine, also when opening the menu/inventory.

I have a feeling that is has something to do with my Linux OS, because i've never seen this on my Windows pc, but i have no evidence.

My OS is Fedora 42 KDE Plasma and my hardware is a Thinkpad L14 Gen5 AMD. I have my proton settings in Steam set to Proton Hotfix.

Hey everyone,

I’ve been gaming on Linux for years (including online multiplayer), but recently some friends of mine (on Windows) and I have been trying to find a way to play old PC games together over LAN remotely. Back in the day, stuff like Hamachi or GameRanger was the go-to solution.

The problem is, I can’t find any solid cross-platform (Linux/Windows) alternatives these days.

The most important thing is that it should be Linux/Windows comoatible and really easy to set up, since not all of my friends are comfortable with the terminal or complex configurations.

Does anyone know of any tools or services that could help us out?

Thanks in Advance!
