Hey all, I've got two boys who are itching to play Minecraft and a PC running Arch which they currently use for gaming (steam+lutris stuff).

What's the right "stack" for split screen Linux Minecraft and controllers currently? Prism? MultiMC? I think I need a mod for controller support? Too many options, too little time with the day job. Point me in the right direction, I can figure the details out - I just can't be testing a whole bunch of different combinations.

They don't have mojang accounts (or own the game) currently, but that's a minor issue if I know what stack is needed.

Hey all!

Recently I've picked up mmos into my gaming rotation alongside my typical 3d modeling workflow and I figured it's time for a mouse upgrade! I'm looking for something with ~12 reprogrammable side buttons (macro support), multiple on-board configuration profiles, an infinite scroll wheel, and supported reprogramming software on pop os. I don't care if its wired or wireless, rgb lights or not, or anything consmetic like that. I'm purely looking for function. I know razer and logitech have piper and openrazer support, but I was looking for something a bit more budget friendly if it's available. I saw redragon had some good options as far as price and functionality, but I couldn't find any support for configuration software.

If i need to, I can look into VMs or something of the like, but I'd prefer to keep it simpler if possible. Also, if the mouse has on board memory, in theory, could I configure it on a windows machine and then plug it into my linux machine and have it work fine? Cus that'd be quite simple as well I guess lol

If you've got a recommendation or something else for me to consider, lemme know!

Thanks a bunch,

-Eliksni

Kernel: 6.15.9.arch1-1 and tried 6.16.arch1-1 in testing with no success

nvidia-open: 575.64.05-4

NVIDIA 4080 super, cpu AMD 7800x3d

KDE Plasma 6 wayland

All of a sudden, not sure why but this started happening today, I was in the middle of playing some games, the gpu crashed, and now I cannot launch any games without it crashing the gpu driver like shown in the logs. I tried turning off adaptive sync, lowering the refresh rate, but no success. I was considering downgrading my drivers and kernel, but I haven't updated anything since a couple days ago.

Could it be a monitor issue? I hooked up the cable to a different cheap 1080p spare monitor I have lying around and the issue is resolved, but it is not exactly ideal. The monitor I want to use is a Dell Alienware aw3225qf. Testing after I found this out shows that games on the main monitor in 1440p windowed mode will run fine but go to 4k windowed or fullscreen will crash the drivers. With this in mind how would I solve this?

I’m looking to get a handheld gaming PC and originally I was planning on getting a steam deck, but given that the specs are dated at this point, I wanted the most powerful hardware I can get for sub-1000 dollars. I came here to ask are Z1 extreme handheld still worth picking up in 2025? e.g. the ROG Ally X

OR

Is it worth waiting for Z2 extreme handhelds, like the XBOX ROG Ally X?

What do you all think? I really appreciate the feedback!

Multiple times now has Steam interrupted me while playing. It wants to close Steam and update my controller firmware but i have no controller plugged in? What gives?

I recently switched to Fedora 42 (KDE), never before have i had this issue. It also looks super sketchy so i've never updated. I have a controller but it's not plugged in and it's certainly not a Sony controller, i have a Logitech F310 that has never been used once since the Fedora install.

What can i do here? I don't want to update the firmware for something i don't use, in fact i barely use a controller, and i don't want to keep being interrupted in the middle of a play session... I'm really confused by this.

I'm unsure if i need to provide more info like it says in the guide on the sidebar but here goes:

Distro: Fedora Linux 42 (KDE Plasma Desktop Edition)
Kernel: 6.15.8-200.fc42.x86_64
GPU Driver: NVIDIA 575.64.05
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 Ti
CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 3700X 8-Core

I installed Steam from RPM Fusion.

Hey everyone, I'm having a hard time getting games to run properly on my PC with Linux. Here's my setup:

• OS: Debian 12
• GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2050 (dedicated)
• Drivers: Latest proprietary drivers installed
• Platforms: Steam and Heroic Games Launcher

Most Windows games either:

• show a black screen and crash,
• or display messages like "DX12 is not supported" or "D3D11-compatible GPU required".

I've tried:

• Setting the correct GPU using environment variables (e.g., DXVK_FILTER_DEVICE),
• Using different Proton versions (including GE-Proton),
• Installing dependencies like Vulkan and Wine,
• Setting launch options on Steam and Heroic.

Some games work when forcing the GPU manually, but most still won't launch or crash after opening.

Has anyone with a similar setup made it work? Any help or suggestions would be really appreciated!

Hi reddit, I am thinking about dual booting windows and linux and am going to install pop os because im sick if windows spying on me. Before I install pop os I have a couple questons. 1. Does nvidia have good support for linux? 2. Can I run games that need some form of windows software like powershell to run certain games like stalker gamma? 3. Should I move all of my games that don't require windows t linux, (I ask this cuz my drive is only 512gb) 4. Does software id use on windows have a lot of open source alternatives such as msi afterburner, logitech ghub, etc? 5. I've seen all the cool customization and wonder if it's easy to do? If this is the wrong subreddit forgive me for I don't really post on reddit but am interested in at least giving linux a try.

Everyone is complaining about cheaters and for a good reason and everyone is calling for an AC, people are expecting kernel level anti cheat like those found in valorant, but I doubt that they know that their are people who exist that are using linux.

so... back on windows i used gpupv to make a vm with gpu acceleration, there is something like that on linux?? somthing like a conteiner with a virtual session would be perfect as it would be less resource intensive, i just need to run 2 instances of the same game while my friend play one of those instances remotely

Hey! I have tried to google and even run the exe (downloaded via browser, needed to change the user agent as it won't let you download if you are not on Windows) via Bottles but it just refuses to install. My question is, was anybody able to make it run on linux as this would finally make me free from dual-booting. And no, Waydroid is not an option, almost all games I play have VM detection. Thanks!

Hi,

has anyone tried running UE5 games on AMDVLK? Is it worth it? What I saw is AMDVLK performs more smiliar in RT to Windows, rather than RADV, thus maybe it would be worth it to use it when playing UE5 games with permanent RT enabled? How could it be done?
