Genuine question, considering my github repo hasn't been struck down and I haven't been contacted, how exactly is this "copyright"ed? I know WINE/Proton is not in violation of copyright due to several EU laws (DMCA §1201(f), EU Software Directive) and...
DW Proton causes input lag
I’m using DW Proton to play some 3D games. Sometimes when I press a movement key and then release it, the character keeps moving for a short time.
How can I fix this?
I’m using Arch Linux with GNOME on Wayland.

What is the better linux scheduler?
I've been wondering which linux scheduler will be better for everyday use and gaming, so I looked up some benchmarks, but the results are different:
those which were made a few years ago say that cachy os is the better one, but the recent one ( gaming benchmark ) showed that xanmod wins. So can you please help me out?

Meet the mind behind Bazzite - an interview with Kyle Gospodnetich
I am trying to create an alternative to Apple/Windows. Does that make sense?
I have been frustrated for some time with the current state of technology:
systems that collect data, closed ecosystems, or free but inconvenient alternatives.
I have started a project called Hibrid, with the idea of creating computers designed for privacy, design and real experience, without complications.
It is not a company yet, it is more of an idea in the making.
I am interested to know if anyone else feels that such an alternative is lacking

steam vulkan shader processing went from a few minutes to an hour-long process overnight
Mint, freshly updated (right after I first noticed the issue), system info, as of right now, it's been going for 45 minutes and it's still only at 89%. Used to take 2-3 minutes at worst up until today.
Tried restarting it, rebooted the system, nothing changed, it seems to skip to 50% and then starts taking ages. I didn't change anything about the system since yesterday, other than running the update manager once I noticed it was slow.

can you get banned via gpu passthrough for offline games?
I have switched permanently to Linux and I want to completely ditch Windows which I used to use for gaming exclusively on a separate drive whilst Linux for coding/etc. I was wondering if i could use a gpu passthrough VM with Win11 for OFFLINE games such as Alan wake 2 on epic games launcher, RDR2 Via rockstar launcher etc. Will these launchers detect my VM and ban me even if i only play offline and single player since i have a playstation for any online games.

Fedora 43 broken again after solving a Problem with Arc raiders
Hey,
I have written a text here approx. a week ago about how Arc raiders didn't work anymore after updating to Fedora 43 (White screen). After reverting back to Fedora 42, the problem persisted, but i could solve the problem by enabling testing repos.
link: https://www.reddit.com/r/linux_gaming/comments/1ql6r9h/frustrations_with_arc_raiders_on_fedora_4243/
Long story short, everything worked again so yesterday i was tempted to upgrade to Fedora 43 again, because i knew how i could solve the problem i had with arc raiders.
What a surprise, arc raiders didn't work again and launched with a white screen. So i enabled testing repos again, and it worked. Nice.
Now a new problem occurred: When playing, my pc completely freezes after a few minutes, i get a Black screen and a message like "failed to execute shutdown binary, execution frozen" or something like that.
So i have looked up my logs and it indicates that there is some kind of SATA/SSD problem here although i am 100% sure that my hardware is completely fine, it's a new SSD and a new cable and worked for 6 months without any problems, until i updated to 43 again :/

I have run different commands like sudo smartctl -a /dev/sdb to asses my disks health but no problems here.
And to be clear, i am a linux newbie, first downloaded it in June 2025, and tried various different distros and fedora 42 was a distro i had the least problems with, everything just worked fine.
But 43 seems to have way more problems than 42 had, i am already regret hitting this "update to 43" button again.
Does anyone know what i should do next?
Thanks in advance.

Inconsistent lighting across all games.
I'm having this issue with several games. And I can't tell if it's a Linux problem, or a GPU problem. Or a me problem.
It doesn't matter if I play on low or ultra settings. Changing the Proton version also does nothing.
I have HDR disabled.
Anyone with similar problems? Ideas on how to troubleshoot it?
My specs: Arch, RX 9070xt, Ryzen 7 7800x3d

Dualsense Rumble working ! Helldivers 2
Recently moved 100% to CachyOS, and one thing that was missing for me is the rumble effect from the DualSense controller
Steam Input helps with it but its not 100% as it was on PS5 or windows.
I decided to dive into the rabbit hole and try solving it, atleast for my case.
From my understanding, Windows calls the dualsense controller as Wireless Controller, and Linux calls it Dualsense Wireless Controller.
Specifically for me, I am playing Helldivers 2 and they have hardcoded code to send the Haptics to "Wireless Controller".
we can solve this issue with wireplumber and renaming the Dualsense to Wireless Controller
create the this file at:
vim ~/.config/wireplumber/wireplumber.conf.d/51-dualsense-edge.conf
systemctl --user restart wireplumber pipewire
you can validate it worked with :
wpctl status | grep -A 8 "Sinks"
if you see Wireless Controller in the above command, you are ready to play
Haptics and trigger effects should work seamlessly now
Additional things you can do:
if it still doesnt work, you might need to clear the cache for Wireplumber with
WARNING: it will clear the Bluetooth Headphones profiles so you will need to forget and repair them .
rm -rf ~/.local/state/wireplumber
and run the command above again.
if it still doesnt work you can use
PROTON_LOG=1 WINEDEBUG=+wasapi,+mmdevapi %command%
in the Launch command and then see the log at home with ~/steam-*.log | grep "Controller"
and continue debugging from there.
Goodluck, hope it helps o7
