Suppose I freeze the process of something like PortProton — will I be able to continue playing the game from the exact same moment after unfreezing it, without needing to use the in-game save feature? This question arose after I found out that Xbox there is a similar function.

Shot on Debian Bookworm just recently installed. I cant believe how far Linux gaming has come. Couple of years back and I wouldnt have bothered to even try. Is Valve pushing adoption rates with pushing linux gaming of sorts and thus make linux as a whole more interesting for people trying to switch from windows? Or do people nowadays generally are less hesistant to switch to linux since people become more techsavy as we progress? I've been trying Linux on and off for quite some years now and never really felt convinced to use it as my daily OS. Now I barely boot into windows anymore. Glad valve is pushing steamOS for more game compatibility, things are alot easier cause of that.

Couldnt resist to take the screenshot when I played Doom Eternal the otherday, I know its an 'older' title but it just blew my mind when I came through the gate and I remembered that this wasnt a windows machine running the game.

Hey,

I've been trying different Wine versions as well as Proton, Staging, Bleeding edge aso.

I can only make the game run with latest GE-Proton (in Lutris), but the game randomly crashes. It might be after 1 hour or 10 mins. WoW just hangs and I get a "Game is not responding blabla" and I have to force quit and restart battle.net.
I've tried changing to dx11.
Tried without any addons.
Scanned and repaired installation.
Deleted cache and WTF folders.

I'm getting thousands of this error, among others (the first four numbers differ from time to time):

0700:err:seh:dispatch_exception assertion failure exception

The game feels a bit choppy when moving very fast but I get 100-130 fps consistently.

I'm on Lutris 0.5.19, lastest Pop!_OS. It's a MSI GF75 laptop with a GTX 1650 gpu (Driver Version: 570.153.02).

Here's a log resulting in a crash and force close. I have removed a few thousand lines of the same repeating error, since it would paste on pastebin otherwise. I've also fixed gaming mode error.

Any suggestions would be very appreciated, thanks.

Virtual Rides 3: Update 2.7 and DLC "Ride Pack #3 (Noise Machine & Power Dive)" released https://playingtux.com/articles/virtual-rides-3-update-27-and-dlc-ride-pack-3-noise-machine-power-dive-released?lang=en #Linux #Gaming #LinuxGaming

Hello, I've recently switched to Linux Mint from Windows. I'm pretty new to quite everything Linux has to offer since I've used Windows since Vista.

I installed the latest NVDIA drivers from the "Driver Manager" Mint offers(I've installed nvidia-driver-575-open). When I first started playing/testing games I had no issues, the games run smooth. I've first tried PEAK, Stardew Valley and Mini Motorways since they were not very big to install. (I've played these games for more than an hour each without issues)

Currently I'm having a few issues. As I said in the tile some games started to freeze/crash. I first noticed this after I've installed Red Dead Redemption 2. In the pause menu or sometimes while playing the game started to freeze (without unfreezing so I thought it crashed). At first I thought I was running out of VRAM (I've list my specs down below but I have 4 GB VRAM). Later when I played PEAK the game also started to crash when I switched between tabs. PEAK also crashes when I start to share my screen on Discord. I noticed this behavior also happens on Mini Motorways which is not that resource intensive so I was skeptical on it being a hardware issue.

My laptop specs:

- CPU: Intel i5 11400H
- GPU: NVIDIA RTX 3050 Ti (mobile) 4 GB VRAM
- RAM: 32 GB DDR4
- STORAGE: 2 TB SSD

Hello everyone!

Recently I wanted to play titanfall 2(it has gold rating on protondb) on my arch linux system.

https://preview.redd.it/wpgm0z1q49df1.png?width=575&format=png&auto=webp&s=5a4891fdb3e94a29dce9cb6bab20426b9289ea8c

The game only launches if I put PROTON_USE_WINED3D=1 %command% as launch options, but doing this results in horrifying low fps. If I remove the launch options, I got the EA - Activate your Game window.
If I input my credentials I get another error "We could not activate ..."

Thank you for your assistance!

I need some advice on which distro to choose.

I'm a very light gamer, maybe once a month, but I would like to game a bit for fun with my son at times, particularily C&C Generals Zero Hour.

At the same time I need to run a desktop with various VM's with a decent frame rate, around 24 fps or more. One VM will have Windows, another will have Rocky Linux and then there will be others. I like Virtual Machine Manager that I tried with Rocky Linux, that is really nice, but Rocky Linux like the rest of the RHEL branch have dperecated QXL and Spice, so I can't get high frame rates on the VM's.

I don't like Debian branch so much, in my experience it's unstable and I've tried a lot of Debian distros.

I'm not so sure about immutable OS's if it's secure as I guess large parts of the os will not be updated and I wouldn't like to reinstall every year. So, at least the barebones install I think I would prefer not to be immutable.

I would like to hear your opinion about it.

I have been trying to run MGSV. The game will launch, but I won't get any window or audio. If I check htop, I see that the game is "running," so it isn't instantly crashing or anything. I've tried several different proton versions based on what was recommended on protondb (GE, Experimental, 10.0-1, 9.0-4, etc.) and none of them seem to make a difference. Has anyone run into this issue before and found a workaround? Extra info below

(I am one of the playtesters and I actually liked it, that's why I am posting here)

From the start of the promotion of this game, I loved how the graphics have been beautifully made.

There will be a link to the Steam Page. You can wishlist it on Steam. Keep in mind that this is the first playtest, so please inform the creator if any error occurs from the side of Proton.

Does anyone know which distros currently work with Xone drivers? This is the driver required to have a functional Xbox One wireless dongle successfully connect to Xbox one controllers.

I've tried several distros but gave up on them after spending hours and hours trying to get these drivers to work. The most recent update I've found is that the drivers are out of date and only work with a specific Linux kernal version.

However... I did give a try to Bazzite which is an immutable distro because I'd heard the Xone drivers work out of the box. And they do, which is great! However, I eventually want to move to a mutable linux distro and I'm basically looking for one that works with these drivers, if it's even still possible.

Any advice?

Hi,

I would like to achieve something similar to the game mode of SteamOS but in a free and open source manner, i dont have a Steam Deck but i watched youtube videos on how it works and there are two separate modes, you have the game mode and the desktop mode i would like to achieve the same results on my Manjaro distro.

I dont know exactly how to achieve this but i have read how Valve does this and it has something to do with gamescope now i installed opengamepadui-bin which also automatically installs gamescope i also installed as optional firejail, powerstation and brightnessctl which i think you probably also need.

I would like to explain what i want to achieve the game mode would be similar to game mode of SteamOS but instead of loading up the Steam UI it should load up OpenGamePad UI instead and when you want to return to desktop mode it should work just like in SteamOS and it should return me to the Manjaro KDE desktop environment.

Can anybody please tell me which steps i should take to achieve this?

greetings
