I'm having trouble launching the game in Linux Mint (fresh install - I am new to Linux, coming from Windows). It ran fine on Windows 10, but when I launch the game in Linux (and I've tried several of the Proton options Steam provides), Steam says it launching, and then after a few seconds, it tells me it is running, and after 5-10 seconds, it stops. I never actually see the executable, nor the crash report window. I am running obse with a few mods, but it does not launch, whether I am using the obse executable or the native one.

Edit: I also verified the integrity of the game files and even uninstalled and reinstalled the game.

For gaming?

I am wondering if anything comes close to it if it is, or perhaps surpasses it

I am on CachyOS currently, but my OS broke after update today. I love the speed of the OS, but it broke through basic update

Not sure if it is a regular situation, but I am not very happy with this, forcing me t reinstall

When using the PROTON_FSR4_UPGRADE=1 command, does it automatically use the latest Fsr4 model?

I have 2 t1t6000m flight sticks. Jstest and KDE's built in controller tester can see the and they work as they should. But when it comes to playing steam games, none of them even detect them and I don't see them in controllers. Any idea on where to start? The arch discussion page had nothing on this that I could see

I'm about to switch from Windows, but I'm not sure if WoWUp works or not. I'm using the CurseForge beta, if that matters. The website only shows a Windows logo, but I've seen a couple people say it's Linux compatible. Does anyone here know? Thank you.

My main gaming distro is Pop OS Cosmic Beta.

Currently I have StarCraft II setup via Battle.net added to Steam as a non-game. Using Proton 10.0 compatibility layer to get Battle.net to work and then just installed the game like that

Does anyone have a different method or a recent guide you would recommend? Not sure what would work on Linux

My current situation:

Installed lutris and its dependencies (the default stuff pacman installs) and wine.

lutris mesa-utils fluidsynth gamemode gvfs lib32-gamemode python-protobuf vulkan-icd-loader vulkan-tools wine winetricks

The other game related things (I think):

nvidia-dkms nvidia-utils nvidia-settings libva-nvidia-driver linu-firmaware-nvidia vulkan-tools vulkan-icd-loader

Lutris configuration:

https://preview.redd.it/dmoobjrxasvf1.png?width=1686&format=png&auto=webp&s=c90719173107cf12b541276b21d6f60a0ae3f03d

With this setup I can play a few games. So far among the ones I tested:

Really good:

• Dead Cells
• Easy Delivery Co
• Project Zomboid
• Undertale

Bad performance/unplayable, but at least it launches:

• Subnautica
• Kovaaks
• Cyberpupnk 2077
• Minecraft via PollyMC

Doesn't open/open but doesn't work:

• Red Dead Redemption 2 - It launches. I can see with ps that It is open in the background and the lutris logs say it's open put I don't see any sign of a window or sound.
• Jump King - The game launcher beautifully. But with nothing but sound. I can hear the game, interact with the menu. I can hear it. But see nothing. Only a black full screen window.

In order to find the Jump King issue I figured I might have missed a package. I couldn't find much, so according to Chatgpt, I need lib32-vulkan-icd-loader this ties back to the lutris config screenshot I annexed above.
We see that there's something missing, right? If I install lib32-vulkan-icd-loader, the two error messages there disappear. Unfortunately that doesn't mean they started to work.

As soon as I install that package, I can no longer launch any of the games I previously stated I was able to. Instead I get the following messages:

https://preview.redd.it/sfg9ziskdsvf1.png?width=1413&format=png&auto=webp&s=513b109874eee1d4cfa6543f72fb9929351e8a78

In order for the games to launch again I have to untoggle those two options.

So I figured: I must have missed something again. Fuck GPT.

After going back to a previous backup I though of installing Steam. My guess was that Steam would install all of the gaming dependencies I need. So I did.
sudo pacman -S steam
1) lib32-nvidia-utils

But to my surprise Steam also installs the lib32-vulkan-icd-loader so I went full cycle.

What am I missing? How can I solve this?

Hey guys. I recently switched to LinuxMint cinnamon, and have been enjoying the experience so far. Only problem is my performance on games, specifically CS2. For reference, I am running on a gaming laptop which has:

-16GB RAM - 500GB SSD - Nvidia RTX 3060 - Core i5

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for your help!

ZORIN OS

Hello everyone, how are you? I'm trying to migrate to Linux, but after trying several times to dual boot and several errors occurring, I gave up doing it this way.

Well, the only thing that stops me from switching completely to Linux is the issue of playing with my friends, we play League of Legends and Rainbow Six, two games that you can't use on Linux due to anti-cheats. Would it be viable to use a Windows virtual machine within Linux to run these games whenever I want? I believe my PC would handle it just fine.

I’m planning on using Linux to replace windows 11 and want to have a steam-deck style experience, but SteamOS doesn’t work on my 9070XT/9800X3D and I’d prefer to avoid “niche” distros that might fall apart for some reason or another (Nobara only being made by one guy, Bazzite mainly just being a small team and immutable) and use an upstream distro, Fedora or Ubuntu, probably.

I recently made a post talking about KDE vs GNOME when it comes to overall usability, design, but also gaming performance.

I came to the conclusion that you can either use KDE and get over the fact that there is no good design language but have better gaming performance, or you can use GNOME which is beautiful, but the extensions system kinda sucks and the gaming performance takes a hit.

COSMIC being new, built in Rust from the ground up, I wonder if it could be the key to having a beautiful, user-friendly, desktop environment that also provides better gaming performance?

Just wanted to spark up a discussion about it, to see what you guys think. Could COSMIC be the answer?

I wanted to run an app called Concepts. It's my favorite illustration app, but it only runs on Windows and isn't an .exe file.I have the APK, but I don't know how to run an APK on Linux.

I mean, I don't know why the hell the creators haven't made a Linux version yet. This app deserves it!

It is not exactly a game, but I suppose that this sub will be the best option to help me.
