As the title suggests, I would like to have an unfocussed window listen to keystrokes, so that if I press certain hotkeys, the unfocussed window responds. As I understand this has become more difficult under Wayland, but besides that, I am having trouble finding actionable info on the topic.

I have a pretty basic install of Ubuntu 24.04, using GNOME. The main programme I want to set this up for (VNyan) is ran through Proton, since it's Windows software, and consequently I don't expect portals to work. The main results I can find when trying to look for this are keyboard shortcuts and ydotool, but since I am not trying to run commands or do things programmatically, these also don't seem particularly helpful.

I believe Hyprland binds may be able what I want to do, but before trying to install that, I was wondering if anyone has any ideas that could work on my setup as is. Thanks for any help!

Game has been working flawlessly out of the box since I switched to linux. but 3 days ago I finally got Phantom LIberty, and the game started freezing, seemingly at random, between 2 minutes and an hour into gameplay. Video freezes and audio continues to play (although there is no 'new audio'. If there is dialogue, the current sentence ends and then its just the same background music)

I have tried multiple versions of proton, including experimental, GE, and Hotfix.

Anyone have ideas?

I’m moving to Linux from windows and I’m stuck between popos and nobara. I’ve used Linux in school but never as my main os so I’m not a total noob. Any suggestions? I’m also open to other destro. Just with the research I’ve done for gaming on Linux those 2 popped up the most.

Im trying to install the battlenet launcher through Lutris, on Linux Mint. https://lutris.net/games/battlenet/

starts and gets to a certain point (typically showing as 60-90% completed in the battlenet launcher) where the program stops. Here is the log.

output->count == signaled_count' failed. Started initial process 5595 from /home/user/.local/share/lutris/runners/wine/wine-ge-8-26-x86_64/bin/wine /home/user/.cache/lutris/installer/battlenet/setup/Battle.net-Setup.exe Start monitoring process. fsync: up and running. wine: RLIMIT_NICE is <= 20, unable to use setpriority safely wineserver: ../server/sock.c:1154: complete_async_poll: Assertion output->count == signaled_count' failed. wine client error:1f8: write: Bad file descriptor

in lutris I have made sure to set wine to version wine-10.8-staging-tkg-ntsync (x86_64) in runner options but when installing battlenet (see above) it still shows as using the default wine-ge-8-26. Is this the problem? Seems like strange behaviour.

This game freezes frequently. I think it's a proton issue. Because it freezes differently when using different protons. That is, I experienced a lot of freeze issues when using
proton 10.0-2 beta,
GE proton 10-12, GE,
Cachyos proton 10.

But when using
GE proton 8-1,
Proton 8,
proton 9,
cachyos proton 9,
proton experimental..
it freezes only at certain intervals.

When using proton 6.3-8, it crashed before launching.And proton 7.0-6 was able to run with a small freeze like proton 8, but later it crashed like proton 6.
I've heard on the internet that many people are having issues with this game, but most of them are crash issues.
What is the solution for this? Which proton is better for this game? Is this happening for some other reason?

Device-ROG Ally Z1E.
OS-Cachyos Handheld Edition.
Game-Forza Horizon 4 Steam version.
(I deleted the Targetedhardware.dll file because the hardware requirement warning message appears when the game launches).

Anyone know what to do?
Steam is still able to network with friends and downloads however

is there a way to play minecraft and use thekeyboard and mouse as if it were minecraft pc?

i have scrcpy installed on my pc (fedora 42) and i have two monitors for workand i use the second one to watch shows or play games online. i recently discovered scrcpy and got minecraft running on one of my monitors but i have to hold click the mouse in order to look around and stuff, and i can't open the inventory or do certain things unless i tap directly on my phone (pixel 9). is there a way to play it as if it were minecraft for pc? where i don't have to hold left click to look around and stuff?

Whenever I minimize Wolfenstein The Old Blood, it(Wine-64) always crashes as soon as I click on the icon or Alt+Tab back in. The only other game I play right now is CS2 so i am not sure yet if this is a more common problem.

I don't know what happened, but I went to boot up BG3 today and the lag was insane. 24 FPS on the title screen with all the models being low quality. The UI won't even load in. It was working fine a week ago when I last played. I'm running over Proton.

System Info:

Pop_OS! 22.04

AMD Ryzen 7 5700G
Radeon RX 6800 XT

750W power supply

The game refuses to open when I set the proton log variable, but regardless I appreciate all the help I can get.

They just added FSR 3 Frame Generation support, but the option isn’t showing up for me. I’m on an RTX 3060 laptop GPU and already tried a bunch of different launch options with no luck. Anyone else run into this?
