Hello, I am a new player, doing Art of War challenges.

I did Early Combat, Economy and Siege, now when I try Advanced siege, I crash around 30s or so into the game.

I am on Linux openSUSE TW, Proton 9.0.4, latest everything. My PC can play this game normally (16 GB RAM/8GB VRAM, decent framerate). I don't know how to solve this - I can't find any posts on crashing.

The Drifter from Powerhoof has released, and it is something truly special for the point and click adventure genre that's one not to be missed.

I have recently installed cachy os on my asus laptop and was wondering if I am running dual channel ram as I have heard it is better for gaming.

I saw a few other posts and forums and found this command on this post which doesnt give me any out put:

sudo dmidecode -t 17 | awk 'BEGIN { FS=":"; OFS="\t" } /Size|Channel/ { line = (line ? line OFS : "") $2 } /^$/ { print line; line="RAM" }' | grep -iv 'no'

does this mean I am running single channel RAM?

Another output I got from this post is

sudo dmidecode | grep Interleaved
[sudo] password for user:
Interleaved Data Depth: 2
Interleaved Data Depth: 2

another commands which I tried :

sudo dmidecode | egrep -i 'locator|width'

when I was using windows 10 I checked CPUZ which showed I was running dual channel and this is the output I got from dmidecode

sudo dmidecode -t memory

Can someone please help how to Identify if we are actually running dual channel or is the ram running in single channel

hello everyone, its been a while since i last played with controller, it used to be as responsive if not more so than windows but now whenever i want to use a controller there seems to be a massive amount of delay, maybe a bit over a second.

additionally buttons seem to sometimes be "sticky" and get pressed for way longer than i held them down for. i originally noticed this in Jedi survivor but it seems to happen across games and even in very easy to run titles.

i use xpad neo on cachyOS if that helps.

any suggestions on how i could fix this?

Meu DualShock 4 não funciona no God of War 2018 (não steam). A única forma que consegui fazer ele funcionar foi usando o Steam Input, mas a Steam pesa bastante no desempenho comparado ao Lutris, o que faz falta num notebook fraco. Alguém conhece alguma solução?

Obs: Uso o cachyos

Hello everyone,
has someone else experienced a problem similar to mine when launching Jedi Survivor ?
The game start from steam regularly, the EA app preparing game load pop up but then after it goes off the preparing game load screen it only remains a ea app little white rectangle on the top left. But the game doesn't show despite Steam telling me that is running.
Currently I'm launching the game without launch option and with forced proton-experimental.
My spec:
OS: Arch Linux
DE: Hyprland
GPU: Nvidia RTX 4070 Ti

Attached is the screenshot of the ea app rectangle.

Thank in advance to anyone for helping.

As title says, I've been plaiyng Return to Moria on Linux Mint for a while, no problems, took a break from it, then when I tried recently the game won't start. I'm using Heroic (game is on Epic) and wine 8-26. I've taken a Verbose Logs printout where there are some error messages, it's the first comment. I've been working on it myself, but without out much success. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated :)

• Fixed a bug that could cause Vulkan applications to hang when destroying swapchains after a lost device event.
• Fixed a bug that could allow atomic commit and other DRM operations to return success status despite having failed due to handling an interrupt: https://github.com/NVIDIA/open-gpu-kernel-modules/issues/832
• Fixed a bug that could cause GTK 4 applications to crash when using the Vulkan backend on Wayland.
• Fixed a bug that could intermittently cause llama.cpp to crash on exit when using the Vulkan backend: https://github.com/ggml-org/llama.cpp/issues/10528
• Added support for the fifo-v1 Wayland protocol on Vulkan.
• Updated GPU clock value reporting in nvidia-settings, NVML, and nvidia-smi to show clocks before thermal and idle slowdowns for better consistency with the equivalent functionality on Windows.
• Fixed compatibility with Bigscreen Beyond Head Mounted Displays.
• Fixed a bug that could result in a black screen when setting specific modes on HDMI displays.
• Fixed a bug that caused blank or frozen screens under the following conditions: nvidia-drm is loaded with the modeset=1 and fbdev=1 parameters, using a Maxwell or Pascal series GPU, and more than one display device of differing resolutions are connected.
• Fixed a bug that caused nvidia-suspend.service to fail when available system memory is low.
• Enabled RMIntrLockingMode by default. This feature can help reduce stutter especially when using virtual reality. This feature was originally introduced in the r570 series. It can be disabled by loading nvidia.ko with the \NVreg_RegistryDwords=RMIntrLockingMode=0` kernel module parameter.`
• Implemented another feature that can reduce time spent in the interrupt top half for low latency display interrupts by deferring the work until later. This feature is experimental and disabled by default. This feature can be enabled by loading nvidia.ko with the \NVreg_RegistryDwords=RmEnableAggressiveVblank=1` kernel module parameter.`
• Fixed a bug that could cause blank rendering on some single-buffered GLX applications when running on Xwayland.
• Fixed a bug that could cause a kernel use-after-free on pre-Turing GPUs.
• Fixed a bug that could cause OpenGL applications and compositors to stall when using NVIDIA as a PRIME Display Offload sink ("Reverse PRIME"), potentially resulting in a black screen.
• Fixed a bug that led to increasing memory usage in X11 OpenGL and Vulkan applications after suspend/resume cycles.
• Fixed a bug that could cause 32-bit x86 applications running on recent builds of glibc to crash on dlopen().

Intro

I've coded this little rust daemon as replacement for cachyos game-performance (which doesn't support flatpak), and also for gamemode (which doesn't support flatpak either) entirely, when used along with ananicy-cpp

Elden ring detected? Let's go into performance mode!

How it works

We read a ~/.config/power-rules/config.toml like this example

[config] default_profile = "balanced" [[rule]] name = "eldenring.exe" profile = "performance" [[rule]] # As many rules as you want.

And automatically set the power profile while the game is running using powerprofilectl. Once the game is closed, we go back to the default power profile.
