I am back in Linux after not using it since Ubuntu back in 2012. I installed OpenSUSE on a Lenovo Thinkpad T470 with 7th gen intel i5 and integrated intel 650 HD graphics. It has 32gb ram and 2 tb ssd onboard. Should I continue forward with my current OS or go for something more gaming-oriented like Bazzite? I don’t have as much time as I used to for mucking about with tweaking but I don’t shy away from it either since I have some Linux experience. My ultimate goal -pipe dream- was/is to play Halo MCC with a friend from abroad. Should I lay it to rest and play on Xbox instead or can I make something work? Thanks!

I've been trying to mod the OG Mass Effect Trilogy with mixed results. I get easily install content mods with ME3Tweaks Mod Manager under Wine. However, when I try to install ALOT and MEUITM with MEM (Mass Effect Modder) I'm getting many conflict errors, it doesn't exactly fail. I'm thinking these two texture overhauls can't be installed at the same time. Has anyone else encountered this issue?

I am thinking about switching to linux and everyone is saying i should use gradua linux but i am not so sure, i game frequently and those games are single player but i am not sure if this would be a right decision so if anyone who have played on gradua linux can help me it would be really appreciated . I am also doing cybersecurity course so i use kali linux to practice but i use it on vm so i want to know if i can just use the tools on kali with this os, lastly when i switch should i completely erase my windows since i only have 1 ssd

Hello, I want to install a Linux distribution that I can use to play and use it alongside my Windows, I don't know much about Linux but I want to learn, I tried to install bazzite and it wouldn't let me, so I want to know if you could explain to me how I should do it, and if in any case I can't use Bazzite, can you recommend another distribution. Here are the specifications of the laptop: intel hd 520 Intel i7 6600u 8gb ram 238.4 GB storage

I've been on Bazzite for less than a week, as a Windows 10 refugee. As it says in the title, I have a third party Xbox controller (Gamesir) that was my daily driver while on Windows. After switching to Bazzite, whenever I use it, it auto-detects as a PS4 controller, oddly enough. I connect the controller through the 2.4 ghz dongle, and it shows up as a PS4 controller in both Steam as well as my Controller section in my Settings. I was under the impression that Bazzite came installed with xone, which could handle both 1st party and 3rd party controllers. Is there something that I'm missing? Is there any way for me to check if I'm missing any drivers?

I have a XFX SPEEDSTER SWFT 210 AMD Radeon™ RX 7600 XT it has a switch on it for dual bios, I'm reminded by, MangoHUD it's(GPU) telling me I'm both TEMP and POWER throttled.

Is it just as easy as powering off my system flipping the switch and the GPU will no longer be throttled or do I need to go in to my bios?

I'm not a total noob I've been gaming on Linux for over a year, and I've built this machine from the ground up. I'm just new to pushing the performance of my machine to the next level.

Any help you can offer would be much appreciated!

For those of you with Intel + Nvidia hybrid graphics computers/laptops - what distro do you find works best?

I'm running arch-based distros on my two hybrid graphics laptops and honestly I'm getting tired of spending 30 minutes finding work arounds for games (may the gods bless all those that contribute to the Arch wiki) - especially games that work flat out on my single graphic card AMD computer (which also has an Arch-based distro), or my intel-only laptop.

Hey everyone,

I’m pretty new to Linux and have been diving into it with a lot of enthusiasm. I’ve encountered various challenges along the way, but thanks to AI, helpful communities, and tutorials, I’ve managed to solve most of them. However, when it comes to using Wine, I feel like I’ve hit a brick wall.

I initially tried to install Wine on Linux Mint, but it ended up breaking my entire system, and I couldn’t boot anymore. In my attempts to fix it, I made things even worse. Now, I’m on Fedora Kinoite and trying to play Star Wars Battlefront 2 (2017) on Steam. The game never starts up; after an EA window pops up saying "preparing game," nothing happens. I did manage to get the game to launch once, but since then, it’s been back to not even starting.

I’ve also tried using different Proton versions, including Proton-GE, and various launch commands to get Battlefront 2 to run, but nothing has worked. The one time it did launch, it ran well, but there was a weird mouse input lag. I closed the game to look for solutions to the input lag, and when I tried to start it again, I encountered the same problem as before.

I also tried installing EA/Origin through Lutris, but it didn’t work properly and crashed after I logged in. I’ve read that Wine Staging could help, but I keep running into errors or missing dependencies when trying to install those packages. I even downloaded Wine through Flatpak, but that won’t launch either.

I’m just really frustrated and confused about why this process is so incredibly complicated. Is there something I’m missing? Any advice or guidance would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

Hi, i'm using kubuntu, and when i use weylus, it works normal for a few seconds, but then it just freezes and receives zero FPS,For some reason, this issue only happens on linux, works fine on windows(i dual boot them), it's also inconsistent, sometimes it doesn't happen, sometimes it does happen but ends up working again out of nowhere, or sometimes it just keeps happening(the most frequent one). I need this issue fixed cause i use weylus for my webcomic and cannot find a good linux-compatible alternative

I just tested with my old gpu rtx 2070.
lspci | grep -i nvidia
detects the gpu just fine.

however, when i put my new 9070xt in the deg1, it doesnt detect it at all.

might be a faulty card. Any suggestions?

I just bought this 8Bitdo ultimate 2C wired controller, but with Hollow Knight LT button is failing hard, I have to press really hard in order to no get buged/lagged.
So I'm trying to remap the button, it is possible?
I don't see this L4 and R4 button in the Steam Control Settings.

so i was trying to install ea app through lutris but the process of setting up the wine prefix didnt work.i thought it was only with the ea app but when i try to create a new game with wine as the runner lutris hangs and crashes. i tried reinstalling both lutris and wine but it didn't change anything.

when i try to install ea app trough the lutris option it freezes (does the same when i add any game with wine as a runner). this is the `lutris -d` output:

I don't know why there is not a "for dummies", like step by step, with no knowledge, and not assuming you already know stuff, guide for these things. Basic Windows/computer knowledge... sure, but it's nice to have it as a reference, like a work instruction or manual. (I know the post is for Linux, but the steps are kinda the same minus the "terminal console" stuff)

Anyways... in my case, I had a folder with a .zip or .7z file extension (you can Google "compressed file" to get a better grasp of this). After extracting it (i.e. right-click and selecting "Extract all..." or using software like 7-zip or WinZip), you have two things: the original .zip file and a folder with the same name as the file (unless you changed it in the extraction or "decompression" process).

Inside the new folder, I had a file with the .iso extension. I had to right-click on it and select "mount" from the list. This will add a DVD/Blu-ray "virtual drive" (like if you had put an actual DVD/Blu-ray disk in an optical drive installed in your PC or laptop). Clicking on that, you can then enter and copy and paste the file with the extension .PUP, which you can then move to your RPCS3 "games" folder or just click and drop on the game list once RPCS3 is running. I made a folder and dumped all the files I found on the "virtual drive". Reading other comments, the .PUP file should be enough.

Hope this helps.
