Whenever I try to listen to my songs on Independence FM, after a few seconds it skips to a new song. How do I fix this? Installing older versions of GE-Proton either doesnt fix it at all or breaks independence fm directly

Hello all, How are you all doing? I recently got myself a prebuilt Linux Mint desktop PC, I am new to using Linux as an OS & I have been looking for good fps counter available to download. Which would you suggest/why? I want to be able to record fps while playing games as I want to start Youtube gaming channel & any help would be great 😃.

Hi, I need help with a problem. I have a Radeon RX 6900 XT and I’m using Fedora Linux. I think that since kernel 6.7, changes were made to DPM for RDNA2 cards, and that’s why I lose performance on kernels above 6.6 — my VRAM speed gets locked at 96 MHz. The issue doesn’t appear immediately after boot; it usually happens after some time of using the system or gaming.

When I’m using kernel 6.6, there’s no such issue. When I first installed Linux, someone told me to use kernel 6.6 so the problem wouldn’t appear, and they were right. But kernel 6.6 is old now, I don’t want to use it anymore, and I need help to fix this.

I'm running on CachyOS with my 9070xt, and I seem to not eh able to run FSR4 I believe?

So far MangoHud doesn't seem to recognise it, not do the settings for FSR3 change (which is quite common), so my question is if anyone else has gotten FSR4 running for the Finals?

I am using 'Proton upgrade FSR4', unsure what else I could use really.

Just like the title suggests, for example, games with kernel level anti-cheats such as Valorant or League of Legends? I am not super techy on how vms really work, would love to get an in depth answer c:

Hey sub I have been testing Linux gaming and I have encoutered a few weird problems. While some games like peak or deep rock galactic that run on proton get a slight performance improve when running on Linux vs Windows. Games like Deadlock and CS2 get a major frame dorp off (60fps on windows vs 20 on Linux) . This is weird as the latter are native to linux and the others are running with proton.
Does anyone know the possible reason for this?
For reference I am using a laptop with the following specs:
Distro: Nobara
GPU: Nvidia MX450
CPU: Intel I7 not really sure of the model but 2021 generation I think
RAM: 16GB

In a couple of months or sooner, when I get out of my parents' house and move out, I'm gonna have my own space. What's the best TV for gaming? Any recommendations? I wanna get a nice TV for gaming. I'm looking for a display that supports 4K resolution and can handle gaming, similar to Dolby Atmos gaming, or one that has Dolby Atmos and can run at 60Hz or even 120Hz. I kind of like OLED

I have an Xbox Series X and plan to purchase a PS5 Pro, so I'm seeking feedback or any recommendations.

The budget is around $800-2,000

I have cachyOS installed on ssd1, windows on ssd2, separate drives. This morning I was using cachyOS without issue, shut down, no problem.

Turned on my pc again just now and it went straight into windows. Weird. Reboot, straight into windows again. No systemd boot screen, nothing.

Boot into UEFI -> boot options, both ssds show windows boot manager.

Live usb, mount my linux ssd, open root partition, all my files are there, but boot folder is empty, no entries.

I'm kind of lost what to do here, any ideas what's happened?

I'm using Nobara HTPC so I primarily game in gaming mode.
I've only used it for a couple of months and although it works fine most of the time, I noticed that there are times when the system/game crashes when I open the Quick Menu.
It doesn't happen often but it happens enough for me to observe that it happens when opening the Quick menu

When the system crashes, the display goes blank and after some time it goes back to home screen as if it just booted. Sometimes it also messes up the focus or perhaps the system UI hangs because although the game runs fine, I can't close the Quick Menu anymore so I can't go back to the game and I can't even go back to the home screen.

This is annoying when it happens but it's not really a big deal, just enough for me to be anxious whenever I need to open the Quick Menu so I usually save first 😄
Just curious if other people encounter the same and perhaps there's a solution or workaround.

Recently installed Arch Linux, and when I open games they use the resolution of my second monitor instead of my primary one. I have a 4K monitor and a 1440p monitor. When opening Minecraft and setting it to fullscreen mode, it uses 3840×2160 instead of 1440p. Is there any fix for this? I am using KDE Plasma as my desktop environment.

I just saw on Steam that ARC Riders is the 12th most played game on Steam Deck this week, but when I go through the notes they says the game has anticheat and have not passed the compatibility verification. So my question is... Does somebody knows if we can play these on Linux?

Hey I'm new to Linux and using the most recent version of Kubuntu, I was wondering if anyone had a guide or could give me the steps to roll back my AMD drivers, and help would be appreciated

Add your choice & describe why you think it’s good for me

i recently installed linux and have been learning how to use it, and while playing some games my computer would occasionally completely restart. ive had this happen with modded minecraft sims4 ksp unchrashed and once with FTL. using mangohud to see my cpu/gpu usage the most recent time it happened was while playing Unchrashed with 60 fps, 50-70% cpu usage and 25-40% gpu, this doesnt seem too crazy but idk. my pc specs are AMD Ryzen 5 2600X GTX 1660 and 16GB ram,I have now idea how to troubleshoot this and could use some help as i cant play most of my games without having to worry about my pc rebooting

So I am trying to run it of steam. But it keeps trying to open ea app.

I've just bought a used Dell Precision 3560 with in Intel i7-1165G7 with 8GB DDR4 (planning on putting 8 more GB) with integrated Iris Graphics, I know it's not the best, but I want to do some light gaming, nothing too much, I've already installed Pika OS which is similar to CachyOS with it's gaming-centric kernel and optimizations, and I know my processor supports modern graphics API's like Vulkan and OpenGL. But I want to know what other things I could use to optimize it more.
