Anyone managed to get Pokemon TCG Pocket running on Linux?
I'm trying to run Pokemon TCG Pocket on my Linux laptop but so far nothing. On Windows I got it working with LD9player and I believe it also works with mumuplayer and maybe even bluestacks by now, but on Linux I've tried Genymotion, Waydroid, Android Studio and so far no luck. I'm aware of armv8 to x86-64 translation and I'm using the needed programs for that on the emulators but still nothing.
I also tried a Virtualbox machine with Windows and then LD9player in it but it tells me my openGL version is too old and loads forever. My laptop specs are i5-8250u, 8gb RAM and GTX1050m

How to make a virtual display of bigger size than main monitor with xrandr for use with Sunshine?
I have a phone that is resolution 2712x1220@120hz that i want to stream games using Sunshine/Moonlight, however my main monitor's resolution caps at 1080p60, I tried to run things like cvt 2712 1220 120 and whatsonot, adding it as a new mode to a disconnected output in xrandr, even tried to plug in an actual monitor I don't use and giving that the mode and whatsonot but the same thing happens, an ambigue X error appears in the console (like BadValue) and all my monitors freeze until I unplug said monitor, virtual or physical (xrandr <> --off if its virtual or unplugging the cable if physical)
How can I solve this?

Gamemoderun crashing the Elden Ring
When starting the Elden Ring with high or maximum settings the game would crash right after clicking continue (or new game). The game started normally on normal and low settings and when I started and then changed settings to high the game did not crash. Only after removing gamemoderun command did it start properly with any combination of settings.
So the question is, is this supposed to happen and if not, why is it happening?
P.S. Even something as good as gamemoderun can be a burden sometimes, Who would've thunk?

Fan control?
Installed Ubuntu today and got everything up and running, but missing a way to fan control for a RTX 3070
On my Win11 boot I use Ryzen Master and Precision X1, anything similar that would let me see thermals and adjust fan control?
Nvidia X Server control or whatever it was called pnly recognizes 2 fans?! No fan curve there…Can this be part of my Win settings?!

NVIDIA detail upcoming Linux driver features for Wayland and explain current support
City-building on a massive creature, The Wandering Village - Research & Economy update is live
PC Building Simulator 2
I'm testing the demo because I'd like to buy the full game, it works fine until I have to unscrew the screws of the side panel in the tutorial. It makes the noise but it doesn't unscrew.
I installed the EGL via Lutris (5.17). I tried changing wine version, I tried to use proton. I tried reinstalling. No cigar.
Any idea of what might be causing this?

I want to switch my Dell G5 15 Special Edition (5505) from Windows 11 to Linux, I would like some advice
Title, Windows 11 is starting to get on my nerves and actually interfering with my gaming routine, as such, I want to install Linux on it, I am thinking of using BazziteOS until Valve releases their own distro, I have some questions:
- Is there a driver/BIOS manager (ideally through Flatpak)? I want a software that can check and install drivers whenever new ones are released, if one exists
- I am a single player only guy, so I don't care if I can't play any multiplayer game, however, I do a lot retrogaming, how well does Linux/Proton fare in this regard? For reference, I'm talking about games like Commandos from 1998, Rune from 2001, Star Wars: Republic Commando from 2005, Overlord from 2007, and Command and Conquer: Red Alert 3 from 2010, to name some examples
- Let's say a game needs a fan patch that was only released on Windows to get it to run on widescreen, would using Bottles and point the installation towards the directory where the game has been installed enough to make it run in 16:9? if you need a practical example, I'm talking about games like Disciples 2, or any game that requires dgVoodoo2 to run properly
Here are the laptop's specs if you need them:
CPU: Ryzen 5 4600h GPU: Radeon 5600m RAM: 16GBThanks in advance

Confusion on how things work with vfio and multi gpu setups
Not sure if that flair is correct but long story short I've been experimenting with gpu passthrough and vfio and had some confusing results I'm trying to understand. In this case it's an Intel Dgpu and igpu dual setup. I noticed when vfio drivers are loaded and the dgpu is not actively being used by a vm I can still launch my games that use proton (hence vulkan) and use the dgpu for acceleration while my only output is through my igpu. Is that expected behavior? I did some reading that I think implied render device offloading is supported in vulkan but I'm still confused. I haven't done a formal benchmark but it doesn't seem to be negatively impacting performance by a measurable amount.
For setup I'm running bazzite with an Intel arc a770 and an i7 11700 with all virtualization enabled in bios and I do have passthrough fully functional and can even control my fans and leds in a windows vm for the dgpu. I think I might just be out of the loop on modern tech since my last time playing with linux was way back in 2011 XD.

Emulators on Ubuntu
Hello everyone! I saw this nifty article about Ubuntu and how I can make it look just like MacOS on my pc - mostly themes and icons and such. I want to switch for sh*ts and giggles because I'm curious about actually doing it. BUT what emulators work on Ubuntu? I'm a newbie so I see Dolphin and PCSX2 have Linux builds... not sure what to download. What is "flatpak" for example?
I'm trying to download the programs first so I'll heavy everything ready to install.
OR should I just stick with Windows? I can always re-install it but years of dealing with Windows... I'm ready to try something better/new!
Thanks for your time!

Stop posting misinformation/FUD
No really, just stop. No more platform circle jerks, astroturfing, or FUD campaigns.
Its not helpful to new comers and its not helpful to the community at large.
Stop the GPU flame war, its insanely old at this point.
Use what ever GPU you want but its simply a fact that as of right now AMD has better support. Drivers are in the kernel, better Wayland support, and game scope actually works with AMD. Things are getting better for Nvidia but its not there yet and nobody is attacking you for mentioning that.
Stop with the cringe anti Wayland FUD. Wayland is here already, its that simple. Its not going away, x isn't going to see some resurgence. X is dead and being deprecated this year officially although it hasn't really seen any major development in YEAR and barely any at all this year. Spreading FUD about it only confuses newbies and may scare them away from Linux. And no, Wayland does not add input latency.
On the topic of FUD stop the BTRFS FUD aswell. BTRFS has already been proven for years in the production and home environment. A bug from 10+ years ago in a very specific raid configuration does not magically break the FS. I find it insane how a a raid5/6 bug turned into "BTRFS eats your data.......powerloss corrupts your drives" which completely ignores how a CoW file system operates and the fact that all transactions are atomic.
Bootable snapshots, CoW operations protecting your data, on the fly transparent ZSTD compression (currently saving 700GB of space on my Steam drive), integrity protections, etc. These benefit everyone especially gamers.
No, using a custom kernel, proton version, MESA version, etc will not get you a magical performance boost. Only when there is a specific fix coming up can a custom build get you a boost ahead of mainline which is rare.
There has never been any benchmark to show using things like the CachyOS kernel actually has a tangible benefit to performance out side of margin of error/variance.
And stop the distro/DE/WM/whatever wars. Just stop. Give a few REASONABLE recommendations and details as to why and leave it at that. Your favorite thing is NOT the only one and avoid making things up when doing pros and cons.
TLDR: If we are here to promote Linux gaming FUD, fanboy wars, misinformation, and emotional thrashing aren't going to help at all.

Why does it seem so common in the game industry to make the first game natively available for Windows, macOS & Linux, but only release the sequel(s) for Windows?
A few examples are Goat Simulator, Slime Rancher & Kerbal Space Program. It's not like it got any harder. It's just as easy as exporting a video. They're not using anti-cheat either. Correct me if you find an example. I know anti-cheat has been a problem in the Linux community because the most popular anti-cheats are kernel level. Devs literally cannot lose anything from supporting Linux. It can only benefit them.

Problems getting SkyrimSE, Mod Organizer and Gamescope to work together
I should start off by saying I had some problems getting MO2 to install. It was working, and then something broke and I could not get it to reinstall. Not using rockerbacon's installer, nor using steamtinkerlaunch., Eventually, I unpacked the non-installer version of MO2 2.4 into Skyrim's install directory and launched it with
WINEDLLOVERRIDES="d3dcompiler_47=n;dxgi=n,b" bash -c 'exec "${@/Starfield.exe/ModOrganizer.exe}"' -- %command%And that worked just fine. Then I let MO2 update itself to 2.5.2 and that worked too.
The problem is that I want to use gamescope to handle the game window so I can alt-tab and leave the game displaying and active. What I tried was:
SDL_VIDEO_MINIMIZE_ON_FOCUS_LOSS=0 WINEDLLOVERRIDES="d3dcompiler_47=n;dxgi=n,b" bash -c 'exec gamescope -f -r 144 -w 4096 -h 2160 "${@/SkyrimSELauncher.exe/ModOrganizer.exe}"' -- %command%I used that script, adjusted for exe names for Starfield and it worked just fine. It worked for Skyrim exactly once and then no more.
Anyone see what I'm doing wrong? Easiest would probably be to use steamtinkerlaunch, but since that can't see MO2 that's not really viable. Any ideas would be welcome :)
