New to Linux

28. August 2025 - 02:30

Hi! I just installed Arch from previously being on Windows 11. How would I get things gaming ready? I've already installed the base nvidia driver, but some games are still at 5ish fps. Any help or pointers would be great <3

Getting ready to launch my new Linux-built pixel-art (18+) RPGmaker game (for Linux but also Win and macOS)

28. August 2025 - 02:23

As a first time publisher, first time dev team of one person (me) my mind is racing on everything. I probably should have tried launching with a team first. Yet, so far so good. I can download it through the Steam client and it runs. Yay!

But hmmm ... this is Mint and I've heard people wanting to leave Ubuntu behind. While RPGmaker MV was built to run on Linux and launch for Linux, it's a decade old and I'm wondering if everyone has caught up to basic NW.js/Chrome base requirements and not made RPGMV outmoded either with newer versions of NW that will somehow conflict. What distros are folx running? Has anyone played new RPGMV games recently?

Also, I am so excited that they made a Linux-native running game builder. It's a dream come true. I love that it is based on web browser technology. It was relatively easy to make a free demo on Newgrounds but also make deployments of the main game for the major desktop operating systems.

Issues with Virtual Surround Sound via Pipewire

28. August 2025 - 01:25

For reference, I followed this video as a guide.

It seemed simple enough, and doing a bit of digging it seemed that the community census was also that it was easy. I followed the steps in the video, and got the virtual surround sink to appear in my audio settings upon reboot. I thought it was an easy, successful mission, until I realized that audio was not outputting to my headphones despite it being the last used one.

During the aforementioned digging, I did find other Reddit posts detailing how to do this, but those yielded nothing whereas this method got the sink to appear in my settings. If anyone knows how to potentially remedy this issue, it would be greatly appreciated. I'm on Nobara and used the Dobly Atmos 7.1 wav from here.

What do you predict the state of linux gaming will be in 5 years?

28. August 2025 - 00:22

Ive been a linux user for about 7 years now. Linux gaming has improved by leaps and bounds since then. At the rate its going, what do you think it will be like in another 5?

Lutris gamepad ui

27. August 2025 - 22:58

This is a cool project from an online friend of mine which i think could be useful. https://github.com/andrew-ld/lutris-gamepad-ui In the future it will also include a weston-based compositor similiar to gamescope in order to have the fullscreen launcher and all games tightly itegrated.

Avmatrix VC12-4K or Elgato 4k X?

27. August 2025 - 22:25

I want to get a capture card for my PC running Fedora 42 (Ryzen 5 5600X, 6700 XT). I think the two better options for me are:

  • Avmatrix VC12-4K, which is an internal PCIe capture card, and it seems to have both official (although sketchy) and unofficial linux support. It supports 4K60 for capture and I think 4K60 for passthrough
  • Elgato 4K X. An external USB-C capture card, that supports UVC so I guess it should work fine on Linux. This one does 4K144 capture and passthrough

What I like about the Avmatrix is 1) is internal, and 2) official Linux support. The Elgato one seems to be better overall on specs, but I'm afraid the 10 Gbps connection won't work correctly (I've read some comments about being locked at 5 Gbps on Linux)

Anyway, thoughts?

If someone wants some fresh racing game on Linux

27. August 2025 - 22:23

Linux support was just added.

ZukuRace is a mix or arcade-futuristic-looking game and realistic physics sim.

The game is in Early Access, and I’m open to hearing your suggestions for improvements (write in Discord).

gpu display outputs turn off when using LabPBR texture packs in minecraft.

27. August 2025 - 22:04

I had the same issue on windows for a while, where it would disable the physical outputs and my AMD drivers would time out whenever I used labPBR textures. Now on Linux, it seems the same thing is happening. Same GPU, same symptoms, just with arch linux, mesa, and labwc.

It's a Sapphire RX 7600 if anyone's wondering. I bought a RX 9060 from them recently though (not in yet however) but I feel like I'm not the only one who's had this...

Waveshare PcMonitor on Linux

27. August 2025 - 21:41

https://preview.redd.it/2z91edt59mlf1.png?width=675&format=png&auto=webp&s=42dfabc44f6e6129fca21ea699650dbdab7dfe2d

Hi dear community, can someone please help me run Waveshare Pcmonitor on Linux (Arch) to manage my usb Waveshare 2.8inch display.

Waveshare usb display rely on PcMonitor software and a codec pack called K-Lite Codec Pack Decoder. This is the link for the software tools https://www.waveshare.com/wiki/2.1inch-USB-Monitor .

The software works perfectly in Windows11 but I transitioned to Linux (Arch) and I really wish to find a resolution to make it work on my Linux system.

Im new to linux, but I tried to run it through Lutris, I created prefix folder, and I managed to instal the K-Lite Codec Pack into the prefix folder through Lutris. But no matter what, it never launches PcMonitor. Already using Arch almost 3 months and I cant find a resolution on this.

Guide to installing Vortex Mod Manager on Linux

27. August 2025 - 21:35

So as a fairly new Linux user, but long time user of mods, I've been struggling with this for a few weeks. I've found modding options on Linux to either be too complicated, unstable, or doing things old school. Today, I've been able to solve this problem and would like to make this guide to help people! Both to support the modding community, and to also get new Linux users more excited to game on Linux by helping them do things that they're used to doing on Windows.

I've tried getting Vortex to load through Steam, but no dice. Ive tried attaching Vortex through Steam Tinker Launcher and had no luck. I've read through posts from everywhere, and tried many things but always was met with failure for one reason or another. Limo is an option I briefly explored, but I got frustrated with it pretty quickly (because I'm a dummy). And the current development progress of the NexusMods Linux app, while exciting, is not a great solution yet. For me personally, Vortex was a breath of fresh air after MO2 and quickly became my personal go-to option for modding.

My current distro of choice is CachyOS but the steps should be similar across them all (except Steam Deck I think). This is not an advanced guide, and there may be a better way of doing things, but I'll figure that out the more I use Linux. In the meantime, any suggestions are appreciate in the comments.

  1. Install Heroic Games Launcher (I'll refer to as HGL) for your distro
  2. Download a Vortex Mod Manager .exe either from the Git Repo or from Nexus Mods
  3. Download .NET Desktop Runtime 6.0.36 .exe from here
  4. In HGL > Library > Add Game
  5. Give the name of Vortex Mod Manager (or anything you want)
  6. At the bottom, click on RUN INSTALLER FIRST then run the Vortex .exe installer we downloaded earlier (I left everything default during installation)
  7. Then click on RUN INSTALLER FIRST again and this time select the .Net Desktop Runtime installer we also downloaded and install it as well.
  8. Once that is done, we are going to click on Select Executable and navigate to where Vortex.exe was installed (For me this was: /home/{YOUR USERNAME}/Games/Heroic/Prefixes/default/Vortex Mod Manager/pfx/drive_c/Program Files/Black Tree Gaming Ltd/Vortex/) and select the Vortex.exe. If you cant find it, just run a search for Vortex.exe
  9. NOTE: You can select a different Wine Prefix if you want and know what you're doing
  10. Hit Finish and you're done! Start Vortex and sign into Nexus and do any other configurations you want!

Now that that's done, here's my very roundabout method (and I'm sure someone people will call it dumb) on getting your game to work with Vortex.

  1. Add your game to HGL
  2. Click down on Show Wine settings button
  3. Change WinePrefix path to point to where the prefix is for Vortex. For me this was /home/{YOUR USERNAME}/Games/Heroic/Prefixes/default/Vortex Mod Manager/
  4. Start Vortex
  5. Manage your game through Vortex (you'll need to browse to where the game is installed)
  6. Enjoy!

A final note for the new Linux users: stick with Linux. It can be frustrating sometimes when coming from Windows and needing to relearn how to do things, and there are a lot of people who will just say "RTFM!!!11!1" and tell you to kick rocks, but it gave me back my fire for tech (even though my day job is tech related). It's a breath of fresh air in the world with dumbed down OSes, bloatware, spyware, and AI junk.

MGS Delta: Snake Eater on Steam Deck — raw test, 30fps cap, Proton Experimental. 🎮🐍

27. August 2025 - 20:51

Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater just dropped, and I was curious whether the Steam Deck could handle it.

I ran a raw day-one test on Proton Experimental (no mods, no tweaks), with just the frame counter on.

I tried 4 different profiles, from battery saver to what I think is the real sweet spot.

All in all usable!
