Hi, I just upgraded my PC and while things have been hassle free for the most part, I have had the occasional issue where, while playing a game (specifically Guild Wars 2), both of my monitors will freeze (but, based on audio, programs are sill running even if I can't see them) and if I reset my PC to try and get out of this state (the only way I know how to unless there's some magic keyboard combination to fix this kind of thing), my motherboard's onboard WiFi is no longer detected by the OS, but comes back the next day.

I have no idea where the problem is, no idea how to get logs for someone smarter than me to look over, and no idea what part could even be the cause of this, so any help would be appreciated.

Specs in a comment because my post keeps getting removed and I'm just trying anything to get my post out so I can get some help z.z

Hello everyone, long term Nix user but today id thought to try out Pop!_OS for my new build. After upgrading and updating I went to build AMD driver for the 9070 XT using the correct Ubuntu LTS version but amdgpu-install fails due to “unsupported Os: pop” has anyone had these issues recently? I have updated ROCm but can’t “/install amd driver/“ Any ideas? Might just head back to Ubuntu :/

Whenever i load into any map on gmod with even one addon installed, i get the error hl2_linux is not responding and the game crashes after 2-5 secs in game. Pls help im new to pc

xpadneo stopped working after my most recent system update.

I tried reinstalling it to no luck. I installed it through the install script it comes with instead dkms (couldn't figure out how to use it).

My controllers are still recognized by bluetooth, but steam does not recognize them unless I connect them via USB.

I was trying to download the Hytale launcher and it said I needed something that wasn't installed(in picture) I run Linux Mint Cinnamon. Does anyone have an idea how to work around this?

Hello, I'm trying to play the game for the first time. I followed this guide to get the unofficial patch working since I'm using Linux Mint. However, my issue is that nothing happens when I try to launch the game. When I launch from Steam, the terminal, loader.exe or shortcut, the game's name turns green on Steam and says "running" for a few seconds, then stops as if it's not on at all. I attached loader.exe as a non-Steam game and ran it through Proton to see if that would help: the loader screen pops up, but nothing happens whenever I press either "Vampire" or "Unofficial Patch". I have the -game Unofficial_Patch launch option set for both the main game and loader.exe, I've played around with various Proton versions and dug around on ProtonDB but still nothing. I verified the game files and did a fresh install of both the game and the patch. I'm out of ideas and I seem to have exhausted all the relevant links I can find. I've been at it for hours and I just wanna play the dang game. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Newbie here, i am wondering if linux provides support for double gpu usage, one as the renderer, and the other gpu as the video outputer cuz i am going to attach both an lcd and a crt monitor to my setup.

I have Linux and am playing this single player game. I am struggling at the last boss and my cousin said let me try the boss while he is at his house.He has Windows.I know parsce allows it but on Linux parsce you can't host on it.Also Steam won't let remote play together on single player games. Any else way? Thanks.

I'm really grateful to the Hytale devs for making this possible!
The launcher can be downloaded in flatpak format and the price is not that high, I think that this is a good opportunity to show that Linux gamers are relevant with numbers !

By looking at benchmark comparisons on youtube it is easy to see that there is virtually no performance difference between gaming distros such as Bazzite, CachyOS, Nobara and non specifically gaming distros such as Fedora, Mint etc.

Seeing that the performance is all within margin of error (about 5% difference more or less sometimes even in favor of the non-gaming distro) would it not be better to use these bigger more 'official' distros, install Steam and be done with it? I feel that this solution would be more stable and better overall simply because the big distros are managed by big teams and avoid employing weird optimizations that might cause system stability.

I had tried Limo before, more than 6 months ago, with State of Decay 2. And it feels really complicated. I'm not really into modding, and only modded Rimworld and Project Zomboid through Steam Workshop.

Now, I went to try beautifying Cyberpunk 2077, want to make it look realistic. A lot of the mods I found on youtube vids aren't working anymore. I tried the official Nexus Mods but non of the mods are working. I checked other ways but non seems working. Then I went back to Limo. I just add CP2077 through importing it from Steam, then I made a directory in my home path `~/Games/Limo/Stagings/CP2077` as the staging path. After that, I added Nexus Mods API key and made Limo the default app instead of Nexus Mods App. So when I install mods through their site and clicked mod manager, it will be added to the mods in Limo. Once everything is set, I click Deploy under Deployers and leave all boxes unchecked. Then I just have to launch the game. I'm not sure if I can just directly launch the game from Steam because of the Deploy button.

I left the launch options I got when I'm trying out Nexus Mods App as it is really required by this game: WINEDLLOVERRIDES="winmm,version=n,b" %command%

My only concern is it does not support collections or automatic installation of required mods. A bit tedious but it works. Also, I tried modding Dying Light: The Beast a bit and it worked fine. I can say it is easy to use once you learn how to use it.

I've recently been going through the process of transitioning my gaming PC from Windows boot default to Linux, and apart from some annoyances wrt my fans/RGB control, I think I'm in a pretty good spot; however, the one thing that's currently holding me back is game streaming.

Previously with Windows, I'd routinely stream to my TV and Steam Deck using Moonlight/Apollo, and tbh it's a pretty great experience, but I'm struggling to replicate it the same way on the Linux side, with the major challenges being as follows:

I can't seem to figure out an "easy" way of managing virtual displays in the same way as Apollo -- I purchased an HDMI dummy plug and set it up with the correct EDID as a attempt to fall back to that route, but I seem to struggle with: Sunshine streaming the correct display, enabling HDR, and managing the activation/deactivation of either the VDD or the dummy display.

I have a 21:9 monitor, so launching the game on a display that fits the aspect ratio of the Steam Deck is very important, and enabling HDR is definitely a 'nice-to-have'.

I've even tried _really_ falling back to using Steam Remote Play; however, that also seems to be riddled with challenges (Wayland related?) where I either get a black screen, or an infinite load on the Deck, despite the game launching correctly (FW rules confirmed, etc).

Question: Is there a way reasonable avenue to match the experience that you get in Windows with Apollo? Could `gamescope` be leveraged to stream Steam _in_ a gamescope session to correctly manage the resolution and HDR settings aligned with the client's request?

Some relevant details:

OS: CachyOS x86_64
Kernel: Linux 6.18.4-2-cachyos
DE: KDE Plasma 6.5.4
WM: KWin (Wayland)
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER
Sunshine & Moonlight: Latest versions

Any help would be appreciated, thanks!
