Red Rogue Sea is one high up on my wishlist! After being completely hooked by FTL: Faster Than Light when it originally released, I'm always keen to see more like it and now a demo is available.

Hi, I have a laptop with enough specs to run ROTR, and I have successfully played it well on windows.

I recently switched to Fedora KDE and when I try to play it, it has frame drops to 12 or even 10.

I tried to play it using both lutris and steam, and I find the same issue in both settings.

Lutris as well as steam were installed via RPM and I did not use flatpacks.

I used the proton-experimental.

I also followed the RPMFusion guide to install Nvidia drivers and I believe that they are installed correctly.

I am a real noob when it comes to gaming on linux so a little help would be appreciated, cheers!

These are some of the logs if they help:

I am Debian testing and I installed Sunshine via the .deb installer and installed Steam from flathub.

I could access the host desktop via Moonlight, but couldn't get the Steam big picture to work. My guess is because it is flatpak. However, I do not know the detached command to use un Sunshine to open Steam in big picture mode.

I have steam steam://open/bigpicture but it opens the desktop and I have to open steam manually.

Thank you

Is flatpak version of lutris better than normal verson in linux mint be cause I know it is Ubuntu and debian based so that might lead to old packages

Suddenly this week, most games became unplayable with frame rates between 10 to 40fps with extremely low GPU usage. Some games like Noita run in slow-motion with sudden spikes of 60fps for maybe a second. Watch Dogs 2 is completely fine. Schedule I has *constant* 15fps in game and normal fps in menus.

I have tried:
- KDE Plasma on Wayland, Cinnamon on X11
- ReBar on and off
- flatpak and non-flatpak
- Kernel 6.13.7, 6.13.8, 6.14.1
- many different WINE and Proton versions
- rebuilding initramfs, akmods

System:
- OS: Fedora 41 (all latest updates)
- iGPU is disabled
- Games are installed on NVME drive

I checked:
- GPU is running at expected PCIe Gen and bus width
- VRAM is not full
- Windows 11 runs everything fine
- Manjaro Live ISO runs everything fine

I would appreciate it so much if someone has any idea where the problem could be. I have been trying anything for so long. Thanks.

I am trying to edit game properties in Steam, but no matter what, I can't get to the property's menu. Each time I try, it acts like the button isn't there, and click what ever is behind it. How can I resolve this?

Been trying to make it work for weeks but no success on my arch (hyprland) install.

Wired: Works in dinput, doesn't get recognized (on https://hardwaretester.com/gamepad) in xinput
Wireless (dongle): Gets recognized in dinput but inputs don't register. Doesn't get recognized in xinput

'recognized' here means https://hardwaretester.com/gamepad picked it up.

It works flawlessly in all modes on my Nobara install

Packages I have tried: xboxdrv, xone-dkms, xone-dkms-git, xone-dongle-firmware, xpadneo-dkms-git, xpadneo-dkms, dkms, linux-headers, game-deives-udev

When I run sudo xboxdrv --debug

I get (when in wireless (dongle) xinput mode)

Has anyone tried connecting remotely to a Windows machine from Linux for gaming? I had an idea to basically have my gaming PC exclusively run windows, and basically turn it on exclusively for gaming (or video rendering and other high GPU power activities) and remotely connect to it from a relatively low powered Linux machine.

This in my mind would solve two things. I could still be able to enjoy Linux, the privacy it offers, and the functionality it can give outside gaming, but also still enjoy every gaming I want to play without having to deal with a dual boot and constantly rebooting from one OS to another. An unintended bonus is that it could save electricity in certain use cases.

For anyone who's done this successfully, how is the input delay like, and what software did you use to accomplish the remote connection?

Hey friends! I just made the switch to using Vesktop, which has been fantastic for streaming audio for my games with friends. Only problem...now there's no video! I'm the only current Vesktop user, so all of them are using Discord currently. When sharing, I can see the streamed content on my end, but they get the ol' infinite wheel and end up with a "Stream has failed to load error." Another viewer was able to hear the audio (very loudly) but only a black screen for the video.

Anyone Vesktop users out there have a fix?

Morning all, I recently switched to Linux (Mint, Cinnamon, loving it, works amazingly well), and I've been testing my games out on it. Hell Let Loose, Mordhau, and 7D2D all work out of the box. (had to put an instruction in HLL to use more cores and DX12, very easy 5 minute fix).

However, on HLL and 7D2D, the Steam overlay doesnt work, and I dont see the FPS counter either. I noticed both of these games loaded something called Vulkan before starting up for the first time. I can play both games just fine.

Mordhau works perfectly with full Steam overlay functionality.

I have no idea what Vulkan is, or if its relevant, just that it's something the problem games have in common that Mordhau doesnt.

I've tried looking this up and read a bunch of posts made over the last ten years with seemingly no solution.

Does anyone know any workarounds for this issue? I can still play these games, so it's not the end of the world, but it would be nice to be able to chat with steam friends and keep an eye on my FPS.
