It's been like this for a while now, the game updated and it looked like this, I tried to run it on Proton since cs2 is native to Linux, but without success. I tried to wait to see if Valve fixed it and well, it's been months since I played it, they haven't fixed it, I spoke to Steam support and they basically said they don't know and that I should ask the community for help. Can anyone help me?? My distro is Ubuntu

I'm playing on Steam with Proton Experimental.

• Kernel: 6.17.7-arch1-1
• DE: Plasma 6.5.2 [KF 6.19.0] [Qt 6.10.0] (wayland)
• CPU: AMD A8-5500 APU (4) @ 3.2GHz
• GPU: AMD ATI Radeon HD 7950/8950 / R9 280
• 24GB Ram

Yes, I'm fully aware that it's a potato rig, but I've run GTA V Legacy on this machine in Windows with no issues in the past.

Hello,

More gamers start to use Linux these days, and they miss the central philosophy of FOSS or DIY. User-friendly distros are great for beginners, but they shouldn't hinder learning linux progress.

I wanted to create a new easy-to-follow gaming guide, yet accessible to step into linux foundations.

While surveying online wikis, the best resouce I came across was FMHY's Linux Gaming List. Some links are outdated, and some projects like Envy Control may deserve more attention.

1. Do you see any gaps in gaming guides, which incentivize gamers to quickly ask a question? Any recommendations?
2. I invite you to contribute to FMHY's Linux Gaming list.

So I am playing on heroic launcher to play epic games games, not so long ago I tried playing a game and it had like 2 FPS, every game does this and I don't know how to fix it. I tried changing wine version, changing my drivers but nothing works. Can someone provide me help please ?

I know you can play Rust without the anti-cheat. However is it really worth it? Especially in EU? Since I have witnessed people cheating on anti-cheat enabled servers I'm guessing that servers without them are either non existant or just a breeding ground for cheaters. Does anyone have any experience with EAC disabled servers on Rust? Especially in the EU?

Ethereal Odyssey is a hand-drawn 2D metroidvania where dreams twist, memories echo, and every step reveals a truth.

If you'd like to try it, you can do so on Steam (click “Request Access”): Link

Id rather not use win11 but I’ve heard gaming on linux isn’t usually as good on nvidia gpu compared to amd. Is that still the case? I mostly play single player games. Usually smaller closer to indie then AAA type games.

My main experience with Linux is via steamdeck so I’ve used protondb a bit before but I think it’s mostly for steam deck?

What district do you recommend? I was considering either ubuntu or mint as I’ve heard that’s the most user friendly ones?

Any tips appreciated thanks

Greetings,

short disclaimer: I'm not often on reddit and already switched back to windows, but still wanted an answer for this.

I installed Total Warhammer 3 through Steam a few months ago and it installed the dedicated Linux version. Unfortunately this version was about 2 major versions behind the Windows version and renders multiplayer with friends impossible. How would I have been able to force Steam to download the most recent/Windows version of the game? Does Steam even support this feature?

Hello everyone. I have an old laptop with a nvidia geforce 610m

I installed cachy Os (btw i use arch!) and it is blazing fast and responsive. I wanted to use it for light gaming with gpu offload (i am a little proficient with linux and arch) and i found out that the right drivers are nvidia-390xx. But they are not supported in the latest kernel (6.17.5).
I read that the nvidia-390xx-utils contains a patch for the latest kernel but it is not working, when i compile the dkms module for my kernel it stops because the function fb_create has changed the signature in the newer kernels. Has anyone come to a solution or workaround to this?

Tried Proton 9.0-4 and current Steam Experimental. Same result: freezing during logos, at slightly different points, doesn't go further than that. Verified files -- didn't help. There was some kind of weird message on first start via Steam UI, but it dissapeared in half a second. Red frame, seemed quite lenghty. Never seen anything like it before, and it didn't appear after the first launch.

I hadn't played CS2 in a while, and the other day when I launched it my monitor was no longer displaying correctly.

For years I'd been playing at 3440x1440, 165hz, no problems whatsoever. And now I'm forced into 16:9 or 4:3, seemingly no support for my ultra-wide monitor, and a popup warning that my display is running at 0hz. If I suck it up and play at an incorrect resolution close to 3440x1440, everything is very annoyingly flickering.

I'm on Arch with an NVIDIA gpu and Wayland/KDE Plasma. No problems for the longest time until these past couple weeks. Is anyone else experiencing any problems with CS2 lately?

I'm using LACT, and the 7900 GRE is supposed to have had its memory unlocked via a driver update eons ago. However, LACT still shows it as having an upper bound of 2316 MHz (it should max out at 3000). I am on Mint 22.2 Cinnamon. Here are the rest of my specs: https://termbin.com/88c6

Please help me solve this, thank you! :)

Im brand new to Linux and just made a big switch to bazzite safe to say i fucking hate the OS I can't even install my vpn which I actually require to do just about anything so I was looking at these 2 to switch to next but I don't really know the differences between different distros so wanted some help. I do wanna try arch Linux on my laptop so im tempted to go with CachyOS which is based off of arch but im not sure how good the software support is as I know pop is based on Ubuntu which itself is based debian meaning it has insanely good support

Cant have it run the game an be able to play on VAC servers. Heeelp, just wanna play cs with decent fps
