Hey there! I recently moved over to Linux and, sadly, my current MMO gaming mouse isn't supported (which I knew going in.) It has onboard memory, so I was able to program some common buttons I use before I made the switch, but I like being able to change them around. I know that I'm not going to get per-profile mappings, and I'm alright with that. Digging around, it seems very iffy on whether nor not any certain mouse is 'supported'. I've currently got the Corsair Scimitar Elite, and I've poked around with ckb-next, but that particular mouse isn't supported yet. Does anybody have any experience with this and can recommend me a replacement mouse?

I'm having trouble finding a good answer to this, but how do I remote unlock my gaming desktop so I can stream games to my steam deck and other devices around the house?

I don't want to leave my desktop permanently unlocked for security reasons (and for kid reasons). My computer auto-locks itself when idle for a period of time as well.

On windows I was able to use Parsec and some other host software to manage that, but I can't find a good solution for getting past the login screen so steam streaming is functional.

Tested on Chromium based and Firefox based browsers.

The Problem

YouTube is a Single-Page Application (SPA) that loads new videos dynamically without a full page refresh. Because of this, MPRIS often does not detect video changes and metadata updates.

Our Solution's Approach

Seeking updates MPRIS.

On first frame loaded or PlaybackState 'play' we forcibly seek to the current position.

i want to know the best distro for gaming that can run the following games:

cs2

rdr2

battlefield 6

dayz

my summer car

war thunder

and many more modern titles with a little bit worse performance than windows but preferrably better also im not really a tech savvy i can get stuff done but still this linux thing is new for me

the reason im trying out linux is cuz my dad wants me to know how linux works wich by the looks of it is really interesting OS also im going to be installing windows on a another hard drive just so in case linux doesnt support JUST that singular game

Hi im using my gpd win max 2 as my primary laptop for productivity and gaming.

I have tested bazzite, catchyos and nobara (desktop and handheld modes) and im looking for one that offers best of both worlds.

my checklist

-boots into desktop version WITH PASSWORD, very important for security

- has seamless return to gaming mode option, with support for all of steam os features, deckyloader etc

- has password screen at wake up from sleep (left pc for a while or just taken it back out to work on)

- if the fingerprint sensor also works amazing but not a dealbreaker (i saw the linux drivers were released for 7840u model which i have)

any suggestions? im not super tech savvy so if theres a build out there with this preconfigured that would be great.

i tried the mod with bazzite that boots into deskop mode not gaming mode, which works great HOWEVER it lacks passwords from sleep and log in

Dear community,
We’re a small indie team working on Savior Syndrome: The Crimson Sun — a game inspired by Disco Elysium in both mechanics and presentation.

One of our key goals is to ensure solid Steam Deck support. Right now, we’ve managed to achieve a stable ~57 FPS without any noticeable loss in visual quality.

I’d like to ask you as players:
Is this framerate comfortable for you on Steam Deck?
Should we sacrifice some visuals and post-processing to push performance even further, or is 57 FPS already good enough for a slower, dialogue-focused game without fast-paced action?

Your experience and opinion mean a lot to us. Thank you!

Hey all,

I found a good deal for a 3070 8gb in my area and wanted to make a living room PC for a family member of mine and wanted to install bazzite OS or something similar to have something that can be easily used with a controller. I also want to have a seperate drive for windows for pcvr, which should be fine enough with the gpu (hopefully). I originally wanted to get a 6700 or 6700xt but it made more sense to spend less for more performance.

Any issues i would run into with bazzite or linux in general with a 3070? or anything with having a seperate drive with windows that i should be aware about?

thanks.

I keep my Windows desktop at my brothers due to the lack of space in my studio and just use my laptop running Arch as my daily driver. My friends have asked if I can play Apex Legends with them again and mentioned Steam Link as a possibly solution, but will it work?

I might set up Steam Link anyways, want to play Skyrim and Witcher 3.

Ok folks I just installed Bazzite OS as my primary system. Got everything running and then found out I cannot run Fortnite due to kernel anti cheat. Before you hate on me, I play Fortnite with the family it’s our thing. Everything else I plan to run on Bazzite.

So is it feasible to setup a partition on my ssd and run a windows 10 system just for Fortnite? If so can anyone recommend some instructions? I don’t want to mess anything up and literally just need this partition big enough to run Fortnite with the family but everything else will be based on Bazzite.

I'm always willing to improve performance as competitive player. So when I play Deadlock I have these launch options:

gamescope -w 1920 -h 1440 -f -S stretch -r 300.0 --force-grab-cursor --adaptive-sync --immediate-flips --mangoapp -- gamemoderun %command% +fps_max 0 +exec autoexec.cfg

And when I play single games, like Oblivion Remastered:

LSFG_PROCESS=Oblivion %command% gamemoderun %command%

And when I play anything.. I use:
gamemoderun %command%

But I'm not really sure if I'm using 100% of performance I can use.. If someone have different and cool launch options, I'd appreciate you if you will share it with community, because right now this topic isn't standardized. If you open ProtonDB - you will see a lot of different launch options from everyone, for example:

game-performance %command%

PROTON_FSR4_RDNA3_UPGRADE=1 PROTON_USE_NTSYNC=1 PROTON_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 OBS_VKCAPTURE=1 gamemoderun gamescope -w 2560 -h 1440 -r 240 -f --hdr-enabled --force-grab-cursor -- %command%

WINE_CPU_TOPOLOGY=8:0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7 taskset -c 0-7 gamemoderun PROTON_USE_NTSYNC=1 PROTON_MEDIA_USE_GST=1 %command% -dx12

So, if anybody can provide good info or links, I'd really appreciate you!
