Running last of us part 1 on Fedora is a nightmare

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 8 Aug 2025 - 6:31pm

My pc specs

Ryzen 5 8600G

32GB dual channel 6000Mhz ram

1TB ms.2 nvme ssd

OS Fedora

I have tried everything from steam to lutris to bottles but this game just deny to run at all, tried changing proton versions and proton-ge as well, but nothing worked. I really do not want to install windows 11 just to play a game, been using Fedora since 2023 and never got any issue running windows game, but this one game is so so annoying to run on. It just shows a spinning coin and just after that it crashes and ask to report. I really want to play this game so bad.

Native linux EU4 game blocks Mangohud somehow with no way to fix

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 8 Aug 2025 - 6:22pm

i5 8400H, GTX 1650, 16 GB RAM

Linux Mint 22.1, NVIDIA driver: 570.153.02, XORG

Have been using lutris and running in terminal dowser (launcher) and executable, nothing works. Tried chat's suggestions like running it with angohud preloaded, running it with default config, running it with mangohud debugging and so on. Nothing fixes it, there is no relevant output in terminal it is as if it is working. It is my only native linux game, previously mangohud worked perfectly in games using wine/proton. Mangohud works on glxgears. I checked and it uses opengl which is supported by mangohud. I changes fullscreen to windowed mode in game, ran the game with multiple options, but nothing comes out of it.

I've used basically any conventional method that may fix it, but nothing changed, so need suggestions or if someone had the same problem.

Why did my FPS in Minecraft drop after updating Fedora?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 8 Aug 2025 - 6:12pm

Before updating Fedora, I was getting a stable ~110 FPS on a Minecraft benchmark map (laptop, Ryzen 5 5600H, GTX 1650).
Even on Ubuntu before updating, I was getting the same result.

I used to joke about Arch/CachyOS users they were getting around 80 FPS with their “super blazing Java,” while my vanilla Fedora setup was holding a steady 110 FPS.

After updating Fedora, my FPS dropped to around 60 (sometimes even lower). I didn’t change GPU drivers or Java settings manually.

What could have happened after the update, and how can I get my old 110 FPS back?

By the way, on the same benchmark map, GPU power draw is around 17 W out of a possible 50 W, and overall GPU load is about 40%.
NVIDIA tools report the card is in P0 state (maximum performance), while Minecraft’s in-game debug screen shows GPU usage hovering around 80–90%.

So it’s not throttling or power-limited, but the FPS is still lower which makes this even more confusing.

Genshin cursor problem

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 8 Aug 2025 - 6:12pm

Whenever I stop and quit to desktop the Genshin cursor remains there and Genshin refuses to stop

When the cursor is there I can’t access any application or do any functions with the mouse

So far the only solution seems to be to open the terminal and reboot

Using certain proton versions seems to disable Steam Overlay

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 8 Aug 2025 - 5:49pm

So I noticed when playing Elden Ring, my hotkeys for neither the steam overlay nor screenshotting worked.

The FPS counter wasn't working either. I was able to track this down to the Proton version I used.

I used Proton Hotfix to get back on track. You might have to do the same but use different versions of Proton for your game/setup.

Just leaving this here in case anyone else might have the same issue.

I want to switch to Linux today, need help with some things

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 8 Aug 2025 - 5:34pm

hi, I want to switch do Linux today but I have questions to finally be able to do it completely,

how do I switch the profile of my nvidia gpu fan when I don’t have the program that I use to be able to do it?
now I use ASUS gpu tweak and i can choose a more aggressive fan profile when I need it from the program, how do I can run this program or something similar on Linux?

how do I change my monitors settings if I don’t have the Phillips program to do it anymore? Can I run Phillips smartcontrol in some way?

why watching YouTube or some video file on VLC or MPV my cpu and gpu usage get higher? On windows this doesn’t happen and playing videos it’s basically in idle but on Linux in top and gtop i can see them basically skyrocket. (This happened in fedora, Ubuntu, arch, Debian)

thanks for the help

Today is the day!

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 8 Aug 2025 - 5:19pm

Sorry if I used the incorrect flare, I'm a full time Linux user, and today I'm moving my 13 yo sons computer to Linux. Windows 11 is giving him a lot of issues and random software installs that aren't helping his performance (looking at you McAfee!!)

My simple question is, how's the situation with Roblox?? Last time I messed with it on Linux was fifth grape juice, I think that's what it was called.

Gonna use bazzite for it's immutability, and lastly, how is it with a 1070?? I will be upgrading his GPU as soon as I get a chance

Edit: "he gon learn today!" Lol

Help to run Supermarket Together on Linux

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 8 Aug 2025 - 5:06pm

So, I'm trying to run the game Supermarket Together on my PC. It installs, it opens, it goes to the main menu, but when trying to load/join a store, it becomes stuck on the loading screen or it crashes, never entering the store. I checked the proton db site for it and it says gold.

After some debugging, I found that it is maxing out my ram, even with me having 16gb of swap on my computer. And by running steam by the terminal I got the error: radv/amdgpu: Not enough memory for command submission the same exact moment the loading froze.

I could ran that game in Windows with no problem (well... low settings + 720p, but it ran) (yes, it would still max out my ram), and I was expecting it running with no problem due to its gold status, but it doesn't.

I already used multiple proton versions (including GE), but it still didn't work.

Does anyone know how to fix it?

AMD Ryzen 3500U + AMD Radeon Vega 8

CS2 4:3 Lag Fix – X11 → Wayland

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 8 Aug 2025 - 4:59pm

When you change the X11 part in the cs2 sh file to Wayland, the input lag and slow mouse issue at 4:3 resolution disappears. I’m dual-booting with Windows 10, and the latency is the same as on Windows and I’m getting more FPS on Linux than on Windows. Here’s the benchmark I ran. This might not have the same effect for everyone, but this is what I observed.

Help Us Make Tobii Eye Tracker 5 Less Windows-Exclusive, More Linux-Obsessive

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 8 Aug 2025 - 4:45pm

Linux Gamers & Sim Fans: We Need Your Help!
Tobii Eye Tracker 5 is an amazing tool for games like Elite Dangerous, DCS, MSFS, Star Citizen, and ETS2 – but it doesn't support Linux.

Many of us use Linux (natively or via Proton), and it's time we ask Tobii for official Linux drivers or SDK support.

I've created a petition to show there's real demand.
Sign it, share it, and let’s make our voices heard!

Why so many surprised BF6 posts?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 8 Aug 2025 - 4:38pm

After what happened to Battlefield 5, 1 and Apex Legends it was to be expected right from the very first announcement that we would never get Battlefield 6.

Why are there so many posts of people acting surprised about it?

OpenLinkHub QT app

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 8 Aug 2025 - 4:33pm

For those that use OpenLinkHub for Corsair devices, I made a simple PyQT webview app with tray icon.
It just loads localhost:27003 as an app instead of opening a browser tab.
