I recently installed Ubuntu on my desktop, and plan to move over to it completely once Windows 10 supports officially ends. I play a lot of CS2, and on Windows I get >200 fps consistently. I have installed the game on Linux, but it seems to be stuck at 11-12 fps on the main menu for some reason. I have tried searching on Reddit and protondb for any fixes, but none seem to work. I have tried both the native version and proton 9, but they both result in the low fps. I have tried updating graphics drivers, but I am already on NVIDIA version 575.64.03.

My current Launch Options are:

gamemoderun %command% SDL_VIDEO_DRIVER=wayland -high -fullscreen -nojoy -novid -freq 144

And my specs:

Ryzen 5 5600x

RTX 3060

32 gb RAM

I keep having one issue with it (aside from getting hit with the BRTFS bug and having to reinstall, was only a few hours in so I lost nothing but 15min to reinstall). I just CANNOT get CachyOS to read my Xbox wireless adapter v2 or my 8bit duo ultimate 2 (the newer Xbox one) wireless. Just not showing up at all.

I've followed every guide, the wiki, GitHub articles, downloaded from the AUR, everything. I cannot get these to run at all. I get close and pairing fails. Meanwhile Bazzite I can run these with my eyes closed by doing nothing.

Not a Linux noob, I manage servers daily that use Linux, building custom iso's, handling maintenance, scripting various things. I'm not expert but this is blowing my mind why I cannot get these controllers working.

Neither are Bluetooth, I don't like using BT for anything if possible for gaming.

If anyone has a solution here to get these two to work, I would be happy to give it a try.

I got tired of worrying of system going to sleep during big updates for Steam games that I usually leave unattended at night or while I'm awake, so I decided to finally fix that. Now the obvious question is «Why not just do "Manual Block"?» that's annoying, and it's much nicer when the system resets the lock by itself when the update is finished.

I didn't make a systemd service yet, so I start it with a .dekstop file in ~/.config/autostart/: [Desktop Entry] Exec=steam-update-inhibit-sleep # if the executable is not in /bin or /usr/bin, it must be the full path to the executable Icon= Name=steam-update-inhibit-sleep Path= Terminal=True Type=Application

Feel free to shame me for my coding skills on GitHub: https://github.com/Damglador/steam-update-inhibit-sleep\ I've also made an AUR package: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/steam-update-inhibit-sleep-git On other distros you can use pip to install it on user level (the executable should be in ~/.local/bin/)

Hello guys.

I've been trying to install ONI from the original cd through Lutris and when i start the game, it shows me the whole introduction videos and after that it goes black screen with the message "ONI.exe is not responding".

I tried click repeatedly on the "Wait" button but nothing.

Also i've been trying to change some settings in Lutris and not a single positive result.

It was unfortunate what happened with Old School Rally when it was hit with a DMCA takedown, but thankfully the situation is solved now.

Normally a new upstream version is released every two weeks, but it's been more than a month since 10.12 and my RSS feed shows more than 300 commits since 10.12.

I'm hoping the devs are on vacation, which is well deserved of course. If so, that's fine. There isn't any news I missed, right? Nothing bad is happening with the Wine project hopefully.

I've been pulling my hair out on this for several days now. I tried every runner - Wine, Proton, GE versions, soda, different versions, different dependencies (DirectX, the Vulkan implementation, etc), checking the various guides on protondb but NOTHING will make Oblivion play.

The issue starts immediately as soon as you launch the game, whether from the launcher or the exe. The Bethesda logo appears for anywhere between half a second and several seconds and the game just crashes.

I've tried every recommendation I could find, deleting ini files, installing fixes with MO2, everything — the game refuses to play.

I've seen someone say that it's because the exe comes with a bad DirectX 9c installation but I have no clue how to fix that since I already tried to install DirectX 9 dlls via winetricks.

I'll appreciate any help on the matter, I just wanna play the funny Todd Howard game.

Hello, I've downloaded Vortex via lutris so I can set up mods for Fallout New Vegas, but for some reason I cannot get it to download any mods with the Vortex option on the website.

I've tried messing with the application settings in Firefox to see if maybe the NXM handling isn't working but not matter what I do I can't manage to get it to download for me, which kinda defeats the idea of the mod manager, any help would be appreciated.

I'm a Windows user (for now), but I plan to switch over to something like Bazzite or Mint

Some compatibility questions:

Does Easy Anti-Cheat allow Linux? Such games I would like to be able to play are War Thunder, Hell Let Loose

Can I run VR with a link cable on my Oculus Quest? Or does it have to be Air link? (my internet isn't amazing for air link)/Does SteamVR work with a Linux distro?

Does TrackIR work for Linux?

What major apps can I NOT use on Linux that I can normally use on Windows?

So I was an avid user of Manjaro 6 years ago and have been on Windows ever since. I work in IT and am pretty tech savvy.

I currently have the following set up:

• Acer Nitro V AN515 (i5 12450H, 16gb DDR4, RTX 4060, 512Gb NVME)
• An external 1TB SSD used for storing games (exFAT)
• 34" UWQHD 144Hz curved monitor (1440p). I use this monitor as my primary display with the laptop lid closed.

I want to know the following:

• I'd prefer going back to an arch based system, really liked Garuda KDE, any better/other recommendations?
• Not looking to dual boot, can I keep the external hard drive as is to transfer all my steam games?
• Lastly, I'm still on the fence about this move, the only reason I want to do it is because I want to brush up on my Linux skills, any other reasons you found that made you jump?

Just played Roblox for the 1st time, and it doesn't have inverted Y axis..

I can play between inverted and non-inverted I just get a small headache to re-adjust after 5 minutes of gameplay.

The FPS on there is surprisingly fun. I disliked the age verification via Government ID though.

It's a weird one and is the bane of controller users who like to rename their customized controls.
Basically, when you are ingame and you shift-tab to bring up the controller overlay (where you can edit your controls) and you try to rename a button, then you will be unable to type q, r, t, or o. You can't even type it on a physical keyboard either.

The only workaround I know of is to alt-tab to a browser or something, type in what I want to type, then copy/paste it back into whatever thing I was originally trying to type in. It's not perfect, so I was wondering if anyone had a better solution, or even a permanent fix?
