Which desktop environment?

19. Dezember 2025 - 14:02

So I was using KDE Plasma Wayland, and Genshin was crashing at 1 to 4 fps. Intel i3-4150T Intel HD 4400 8GB DDR3 RAM

With Proton Sarek for DX11 support via Steam

But on X11 It's giving me around 40 to 60 fps on 720p low, which is the same setting as on Windows/Wayland.

I am on Cachyos.

But now the game works for exactly 10 seconds. It runs smoothly for 10 seconds before freezing and crashing. I am using the following launch options:

nmcli n off; %command% & pid=$! && sleep 12; nmcli n on && wait $pid

It somehow makes the game load faster.

Is there any fix?

Running geforce now on handheld focused distros?

19. Dezember 2025 - 13:45

I'm planning to switch over to Linux as soon as I know native geforce now works on Linux (currently official is steam deck locked but there's some github projects to skip that hardware check).

Electron version of geforce now added on windows atleast a clear input delay for me.

Does anyone have a handheld focused Linux and running geforce now on it?

Is bazzite the goto distro for this?

(specifically rog ally x extreme 2024)

Can you run steamOS or similar on usb and run games via a vacant NVME you have?

19. Dezember 2025 - 13:10

Just asking if it’s possible to host the steam OS on to a 25 gb usb 3.0 usb stick and then download the games I wanna play on a vacant 2TB blue western NVME ssd and still have solid performance. Lmk please. Thank you! Also would teamspeak, discord, etc work correctly on this same setup? I just wanna keep windows 11 for my gta 5 and then when possible swap to Linux for game time on those games that don’t block Linux. Thanks!

MediaTek MT7920 Wi-Fi stuck on “Waiting for authorization”

19. Dezember 2025 - 12:42

[Nobara Linux 42] MediaTek MT7920 Wi-Fi stuck on “Waiting for authorization”

Hardware:

Laptop: Acer Nitro V15 (QNV15-41-R2GT)

Wi-Fi card: MediaTek MT7920

Distro:

Nobara Linux 42 (KDE Plasma)

Clean install (Ubuntu was completely removed)

Issue:

Wi-Fi networks are detected but never connect

NetworkManager gets stuck on “Waiting for authorization”

No password prompt appears

Connection never completes

What I already tried:

Full system update

linux-firmware installed

mt7921e driver is loaded correctly

rfkill list → nothing blocked

Tested multiple kernels via GRUB (6.17.x and 6.16.x)

Secure Boot disabled

Wired connection / USB tethering works fine

Same behavior across all tested kernels

Result:

Wi-Fi always stuck on “Waiting for authorization”

On Ubuntu 22.04 LTS, the same hardware works out of the box

Question:

Is there a known Nobara/Fedora + NetworkManager issue with the MediaTek MT7920?

Any clean solution (without downgrading NetworkManager or recompiling drivers)?

Some Games Running Half as Well on Linux than Windows

19. Dezember 2025 - 09:49

I've been on Linux (Fedora 43 at the moment) for a few months now and really enjoying it thus far. But I have noticed some games running rather poorly. I chalked it up to bad optimization at the time but randomly deciding to boot the game in Windows made me notice the games run almost twice as well in Windows, 70-90FPS vs 180 on Windows. The games in particular are Death Stranding and Yakuza 7: Like A Dragon.

My specs are:

Ryzen 7 5800x3D

RX 9070XT

32 GB RAM

Running Fedora 43 KDE

I've mostly noticed that it seems to be due to a low CPU usage, where it seems to be single core bound, with that core never pushing about 60% usage. I've tried gamemode, changing my power profile and changing kernel.split_lock_mitigate to 0 and none of them seem to make more than a few FPS difference. I'm using the latest Proton-GE and Mesa through system updates. Is there anything else I could do to help with this? I'd much rather use Linux if possible but this is rather annoying.

Edit: Mangohud stats

My experience having an AMD GPU on linux

19. Dezember 2025 - 08:46

ignore my random insane ramblings, i'm just here to rant lol

so i've had a 7800XT for over a year now and to be honest, this is the last AMD graphics card i will ever buy. my time with the GPU has been plagued by driver timeouts/crashes/resets on both windows and linux. i am genuinely so sick of it.

maybe it's a hardware issue, although i doubt that considering this has happened even when i first picked up the card. and, yes, this has happened across multiple different games as well, with one game in particular causing it to happen the most in recent memory(RV There Yet)

before you tell me how to diagnose issues, fix problems, etc, i have already done everything i could think of. the crashes still happen, completely interrupting everything i am doing. i guess my experience with AMD is just unlucky. oh well
