Wishing you all a great day,
Iam was going to switch into linux (because windows sucks especially these days) but i wanted the full gaming experience which i found many people addressing many issues but i want to try it my self

When i searched i found a distros called Nobara (fedora based i guess?), CachyOS (for arch) but some say the performance improvements isn't that high, is that true?

But i decided to go with arch distros, so if i want the full arch experience and decided to switch to vanilla arch how can i optimize the kernel for gaming?

And as i said iam new to linux so i don't know much about those terms so providing resources / wikis / tutorials is greatly appreciated

I heard i need to specify my resources when asking questions and keep it short soooooooo

My laptop:

• Asus TUF f15
• processor: intel i5 12500h
• Ram: 32gb 3200 ddr4
• GPU: RTX 3050 4gb
• Currently using windows 11

Hey there, I am trying to install proton ge but i cannot do so as cachyos package manager crashes whenever I click on "install". How do i download proton plus?

it's been broken for about a week on other runners

So, I've managed to get Xenoverse 2 to run fine on it's own, but now I'm curious if anyone knows how I can mod the game. I have heard someone say that you can use Lutris to run the things you need to mod the game, like the Patcher and Installer, but I have no idea how to do that. Thank you for any help you are able to give me

OK, about 6 months ago I noticed I was having some screen tearing problems in most applications. Setting v-sync in games would not fix the issue. I did some research and found that the setting "Force Full Composition Pipeline" would solve the issue.

The problem is that I could not save the settings to a config file. If I click the "apply" button, it prompts for a save file destination. Even if I just save the default config with no changes made, it completely messes up my system.

After saving the config, I restart the system and the graphics are messed up: the resolution is terribly large, maybe 1024x800 for system applications, but firefox retains the normal resolution 1440p. The taskbar disappears and many system apps don't work (I can't use the screenshot, for example.) I am not able to right-click the screen to change the display type and the mouse cursor doesn't move below the level of the screen, so I don't think the taskbar is hiding under the display because of a resolution issue. My suspicion without proof is that the resolution is fine, but the system applications are loading at extremely large fonts.

The only solution I have found is to delete the config file xorg.conf. So for the last half a year I have been ignoring this problem and using temporary settings in nvidia-settings.

If anyone has a solution, I would be very appreciative. Please comment if you have had this problem yourself and were able to solve it.

Thanks

Just purchased Dragon's Dogma 2, intending to play it on my Linux Gaming PC.

Game boots up fine, but in most of the menus, the selection box/highlight overlay seems to be off on my system. See attached screenshots below:

https://imgur.com/a/1eUgwCb

The incorrect offset seems to be about half off in the middle of the screen (See it hovering between "Game Settings" and "Interface" in screenshot 1), but towards the bottom will actually be a full option below where it should be--note in Screenshot 2 that the right side shows Network features even though "Language" appears to be the one highlighted. The final screenshot shows the a Yes/No dialogue, where "Yes" has the selection box around it even though No is the option selected (note the brighter text).

I'm only 30 minutes in, but I can already tell this is going to be incredibly frustrating to deal with, borderline unplayable.

Is there anything I can do to try to fix this? I'm using an all-AMD CPU/GPU setup.

Fedora 40 AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D 8-Core Processor × 8 Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Navi 21 [Radeon RX 6950 XT] 32 GB RAM

So I put sunshine on my linux desktop and moonlight on a custom firmware on this handheld. And now can run the entire steam deck UI on handheld and Ratchet and Clank with full RTX. Ratchet and Clank Runs Flawless

just a quick question.

Which method runs better for playing non-supported games (like League of Legends or GTA V Online) in a Windows system.

QEMU/KVM based VM like Virtual Machine Manager or just dual booting with windows just for these games.

i wanna hear about your experience and ideas

Hey there,

I am trying to play The Bazaar on Proton (I tried it on Wine, but I get the Bazaar cursor, no sound, no video, just a black screen). I've heard that Proton is the way to go. I have the game downloaded and when I go to Steam and add a non-Steam game, I can browse some folders like var, usr, mnt, etc. Any idea how to get my executable game files over to those folders so Steam can find them? This is my first time trying something like this, so I'm sure I'm overlooking some very simple steps.

Thank you!

I am aware nexus-mod-app development, but for current stage it seems like there is no major (working) vortex solution for linux.

I have tried most of then (Yes steam tinker launch too) and none seem to work.

Hello. I am trying to get the Switch Online N64 controller working on my Linux installation (EndeavourOS). However, I can't seem to use the right C button. It's not mapping to any button. According to https://hardwaretester.com/gamepad, it is button 17, so it's definitely registering it being pressed, but that button is not being picked up by any games.

Again, the controller works perfectly except for this one button, and I'm wondering if there's an easy fix I can do.

I am looking for anything that has Wi-Fi and bluetooth. The build would be running arch in the end. Currently I am mostly looking at B650 boards, but all of the ones I can find have either only Realtek or don't even list what they have. I think the ASrock B650E has intel but that is also 2x the price of any other B650 in my country. Any help would be appreciated.

Hello,

The title basically says it. I'm running EndeavourOS, with the ChimerOS based gamescope-session installed and working. I've got Sunshine running to access the machine remotely, but I get kicked out and can't easily switch to the Gamescope session when I'm not in front of the machine.

I would like to create an icon on the desktop that will log a user out and straight into the Gamescope session, just like the Steamdeck does. I'm guessing the icon would need to point to a script or something, but I'm not sure even where to look for how to achieve this.

Also, I have not had the chance to actually look into how the Steamdeck does it, but I will be doing so. Regardless, some help/advice would be appreciated.

I'm using auto-updated Lutris to play a couple of Blizzard's games and haven't had any issues for years until today. I opened up Bnet to play Hearthstone and the game tried running a patch but failed. I repaired the files and tried again. Fail.

I tried to reinstall the game, but it failed at the last second. Then I uninstalled Bnet and tried to reinstall. Same thing happened. Here is my log from Lutris: https://pastebin.com/dh5nGLFQ

I'm running OpenSUSE Tumbleweed on a mini pc from Amazon. It ain't much, but it's been working for my needs. I'm not sure who's at fault currently, but I'm hoping someone from the community can hop in and help out.

I'm new to linux and I'm going to be buying a system76 laptop (darp10) with Pop_OS and I wanna know if someone has tried running deadlink on pop_os or other distros, is it playable?

Hello. I have a radeon 7800 xt and want to undervolt this using LACT. Lact is not working the same way adrenaline works I guess. Is there anyone here want to share their settings for me for this card? Thank you very kindly.

For anyone who got trapped with the random FPS drops, looks like it's working across linux users again.
