I just got my first full linux machine after spending the last few years dualbooting it, and now I'm trying to set up my Quest 2 (with a link cable) for my PC. Is there a way that I can do that? I tried using the meta quest app on PC but it doesn't seem to be linux compatable.

Trying to stream my screen on discord for friends and this is what they see when they tune in. Please help

1. Install Bottles flatpak
2. Install Flatseal and give bottles permission to use your home folder
3. Make a new bottle, use the default preset for applications
4. In the new bottle's settings, set sys-wine-10.0 as runner, then advanced display settings, and change screen scaling to 100
5. Install Vortex mod manager in your bottle using the +Add Shortcuts button
6. Shut down steam, click on 3 dot menu for vortex, and add to steam
7. Open Steam, then settings -> storage and make a steam directory at /home/user/games/steam, put the games you want to mod here.
8. On vortex, go to Settings -> Mods, turn off Automatically use suggested path, then set mod staging folder to /home/user/games/Vortex, then go to Settings -> Download and set download folder to /home/games/Mods. You can place your downloaded mods here

Notes

• Browser links don't work

• Launching game with mod manager doesnt work, relies on steam shortcut

• To use SKSE or similar, add as a shortcut to steam

• The install location is different from default because wine explorer doesn't show hidden directories like the default install in /home/user/.local

• Confirmed working with Skyrim and Oblivion

I upgraded from a 7900xt to a 4090 recently i have had had this problem on both amd and nvidia

somtimes randomly during gaming in certain games in certain areas gpu usage can drop quite a bit then other areas its back at 95% to 100 what coude cause this.

Definatly not an nvidia issue since this also happend on amd also.

This issue got less dramtical on nvidia grayzone warfear was unplayebale on amd but not on nvidia.

In grayzone warfear on amd i got constant lag spikes and gpu use was at like 10% had to wait in spawn for 5 min to just not lag evry 1 meeter on grayzone warfear my amd gpu only got to 70% at peak util while my nvidia gpu is at 100% and no lag spikes. But i still have this problem on nvidia on other games just way less dramatical.

My cpu is an r9 7900 and GPU is rtx 4090 in 4k this cpu shoudent botelneck 4090

Most games run completly fine utalizing 95% gpu but some are bugged or i dont know what is up. This issue was also not present on amd in most games also but more games had the issue in total

I've searched Google and I've searched through Reddit. I'm not really sure if I'm poising or correctly, but I am getting random performance degradation system-wide, and it's not my distro, DE or install. This has happened to me across several different installs and I'm not sure what is occurring.

It happens during gaming, primarily (as in, I only notice in when I'm gaming, and then I can notice it in certain other applications until I fix it). My performance will just randomly drop or it will start out that way when I launch a game, and the only thing I've found that fixes it, is setting my system resolution to anything else, and then changing it back. This can happen multiple times during a session. It can also, not occur.

It's not distro-specific, de-specific, compositor-specific. It has to be something with my monitor, right? This has happened to me on Mint with X11, Fedora 41+42 with Gnome on (X)Wayland and it's happening on Arch KDE with (X)Wayland.

I'm rocking: GPU: 6650XT 8GB CPU: Ryzen 5 5600X 32GB RAM

Всім привіт,недавно поставив Ubuntu, як другу ОС, є бажання повністю перейти на неї, або інший дистрибутив, но поки основна вінда, бо робота. Хочу встановити драйвера на відео карту, но не знаю як і де мені завантажити драйвера, на офіційному сайті не можу знайти. підкажіть будь ласка, де і як мені їх встановити?

I'm curious if anybody has run into this issue (or a similar one) and if / how you were able to fix it

NOTE - CS2 is linux native, so any proton related fixes don't apply

CS2 runs relatively well, but I still get a good amount of microstutters. That would only be mildly annoying, except I think mouse movements are somewhat tied to the FPS. I believe they implemented sub-frame mouse input (ie clicking) with the release of CS2, but I don't think that applies to the actual mouse movement

For example: If I move my crosshair from point A to point B with a solid framerate, I know the exact distance I need to physically move my mouse to get there. However, if there is a microstutter mid-flick, suddenly part of the mouse movement isn't even registered, meaning even if I moved my mouse the correct distance, it didn't make it all the way to point B

I've been running into this nonstop, where I'm turning and I can feel my mouse literally pause for a moment when it microstutters. For a lot of games this wouldn't matter too much, but especially for FPS games like CS2 where accuracy is everything it kinda ruins the game.

I've tried googling this sort of issue, or just stuttering in general, but most posts I find are just nonsense AI slop, proton related fixes, or placebo changes that people don't understand (like the -vulkan launch option keeps getting thrown around? cs2 is vulkan native on linux, you can't use a different graphics API unless you use proton)

I've tried a view different launch options, ie the classic LD_PRELOAD="", running without xwayland with SDL_VIDEO_DRIVER=Wayland, and gamemoderun (though I've just been using the default gamemode config)

Specs:

9800X3d

3080Ti

Fedora 42

Nvidia driver 580.119.02

Window manager: Labwc (But i've run into this same issue on both KDE and Hyprland)

This video will walk you through everything you need to know about installing the minecraft-launcher and ATLauncher under any linux distribution. (Except Gentoo, you freak..jk)

Hey new user here, i install nobara and works well mostly but want a try start some games and apps they run in the integrated cpu i try config the nvidia x for fix it bur dont work. any help or solution?

Here’s the link if anyone wants to see what I’m talking about.

No pressure, just sharing what I enjoyed about it.

Started using linux this week (fedora) and it's been great (besides one issue early on which was fixed with a reinstall)

i know that AMD GPUs tends to play so much nicer with linux then nvidia, i have had my 3070 for 5 years now and gpu prices are gonna go up in price from the looks for things.

does it make sense to get something like 7700 xt or 7800 xt for the sake of smoother usage, better performance from better drivers and possibly having getting a gpu with less use the my current one before prices possibility skyrocket?
