Why is the Linux native version of Counter-Strike: Source using DXVK?

26. März 2025 - 16:51

Title. This is a laptop from 2009. It supports OpenGL but not Vulkan. The game uses Vulkan tho, which is software rendered and runs horribly. Even a pirated copy of the game runs at 60 fps. Anyone know why? Half-Life seems to be doing the same thing, as it's not as smooth as it should be on a laptop 11 years newer than the game.

[Fedora 41] RTX 5070 Ti device not found?

26. März 2025 - 16:05

I just build a new gaming pc and wanted to test it with Linux. But for some reason the card is not recognised. I also have tried to install the driver directly from NVIDIA, but it didn't help.

when i run

lspci -k | grep -EA3 'VGA|3D|Display'

01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GB203 [GeForce RTX 5070 Ti] (rev a1) Subsystem: Micro-Star International Co., Ltd. [MSI] Device 5310 Kernel driver in use: nvidia Kernel modules: nouveau, nvidia_drm, nvidia

When I run nvidia-smi

No devices were found

and when I run nvidia-smi --version

NVIDIA-SMI version : 570.133.07 NVML version : 570.133 DRIVER version : 570.133.07 CUDA Version : 12.8

I also tried an older graphics card (GTX 1060), and it worked just fine.

Any Shadowplay/Instant Replay alternatives for Linux Fedora?

26. März 2025 - 16:00

I've been meaning to get some sort of insta replay of the last 30 seconds, though i didn't really find much, tried to install ReplaySorcery before but it didn't quite work out, and Steam replay has really buggy audio for some reason, so anyone know any other alternatives?

Is multi monitor VRR for NVIDIA still broken?

26. März 2025 - 15:46

It's been almost a year since I last checked, but at the time VRR just didn't work if you had a second monitor plugged in. Has the situation improved at all with new drivers?

6.14: fsync ready. whats needed now wine-/protonwise to test?

26. März 2025 - 15:31

as 6.14 kernel is out (https://www.gamingonlinux.com/2025/03/linux-kernel-6-14-out-late-due-to-pure-incompetence-dont-get-too-excited-about-linux-gaming-boosts/). i would like to test ntsync now.

  • what is needed now to test something with ntsync enabled?
  • Is Wine / Proton / Proton Experimental already ntsync-capable? Or Proton-GE? Or something else?
  • same thing with wines wayland-support?

What could cause Proton 9/Experimental to freeze the whole system when trying to launch Ubisoft Connect ?

26. März 2025 - 15:26

System never recovers and I have to hard reboot. It seems gnome completely freaks out and crash.

Gnome logs mention a path to some dmp files, but I can't seem to locate them. This is Fedora 41 Silverblue.

I've had similar issue on Proton Experimental for a game, but Proton9 didn't cause a crash so I just blamed it on the game being too old to run Proton Experimental (Do they indtroduce breaking changes from time to time ?)

How to use Xess on Linux.

26. März 2025 - 12:27

So I want to see if I can even use Xess on Linux and also want to try out if I can install it on games that don't have it natively supported if someone knows how to do these things please let me know.

I have also Intel Arc B580 limited edition.

Black ripple in GZDoom while on Wayland (everything seems OK on X11)

26. März 2025 - 12:07

I play GZDoom (Ashes 2063 total conversion if that matters) with Vulkan API and everything is alright as long as I run X11 desktop session. If I switch to Wayland, occasionally there's a black ripple (flickering horizontal bars) popping up and disappearing quickly when I'm moving in-game. Also this ripple shows up when I change the brightness setting, it's literally that I move the slider and horizontal lines go buzz-buzz-buzz.

Any ideas on how to get things better on Wayland?

My specs:

OS: MX Linux 23.5

DE: KDE Plasma 5.27.5

RAM: 16 Gb DDR3

GPU: NVIDIA GTX 1080

Drivers: proprietary.

XWayland package is installed.

Discord screen sharing under wayland has landed on stable?

26. März 2025 - 10:34

Hi, i haven't seen any talk about it, but it seems the up until then experimental screen sharing for wayland that landed some months ago on canary has arrived on the regular client with the latest update? I don't see anyone talking about it, am i getting crazy?

Skyrim crashes when pressing Tab

26. März 2025 - 08:56

Wasn't sure if to use the stwam deck or tech support flair as both apply.

As the title says, my Skyrim game version 1.6.1170 crashes when I press Tab on the virtual keyboard. I discovered this while trying to fix racemenu exiting when closing the virtual keyboard after opening it again to close the console. After further testing I discovered that the baae game itself, unmodded crashes upon clicking Tab. Furthermore this doesn't happen with 1.6.640. So I'm suspecting the Skyrim update changing the input window when naming the character or the anniversary upgrade are at fault.

What other limux related causes could cause this? If indeed the base game is broken for apparently me only, I do not know what I can do/try to fix this. Is this already a known issue? Are there already fixes for this?

Any suggestions? Perhaps anything to make the game think it is not on the Steam Deck and therefore possibly not cause these issues?

Help with Returnal on Pop!_OS

26. März 2025 - 08:49

I managed to get Returnal running on my PC but I am encountering one slight issue.. the game runs flawlessly and the performance is identical to my windows install however there seems to be a problem with the “vision” cutscenes. In the game whenever Selene has flashbacks or a cutscene sequence it just shows a… idk what to call it but I can show it with the image attached.. so this happens whenever there is a “cinematic” type cutscene and once it’s over we go back to gameplay as usual. I don’t know what is happening but a fix or discussion would be nice… system specs:- R7 7800X3D + RTX 4070 Ti Super.. I have installed the latest proprietary NVIDIA drivers through terminal.. any help?
