Mouse clicks stop working after alt+tab in fullscreen Minecraft on Debian Trixie (MultiMC5)
Hi! I’ve been trying to run Minecraft on Debian Trixie using MultiMC5, and I’m hitting a weird issue. (I think I ran into this back on Bullseye too.)
The game itself launches fine and runs normally. But when I switch it to fullscreen and then alt+tab to another window, my mouse clicks stop working. I can still move the cursor around, and my keyboard works, but mouse clicks don’t register in any window except the fullscreen Minecraft one.
It feels like the mouse is still “captured” by Minecraft even when I tab out.
Any suggestions? I tried googling this but couldn't find the right search terms to find an answer.

My game releases in 3 days on STEAM and I just added a library for achievements. The lib seems a bit unstable, I tried on Mac, it worked, but I don't have a Linux setup. Could you run the game and tell me if it works (I send you a Steam key and...
The game is Heroes of the Seven Islands: https://store.steampowered.com/app/3010290/Heroes_of_the_Seven_Islands/

Need recommendation on Linux Distro
I'm thinking of switching over from my Windows environment to a Linux distro. But I still wanna run steam games. So hoping any of you guys could help me find a distro that can run all Steam games.
I heard of Bazzite Linux. But I don't know well enough about it to go ahead with it. Is there any other distro that can help with the same?

Can you run two instances of a game to force split screen?
I love playing split screen games on my TV with my SO but almost no PC games support it.
I'm wondering if Linux can enable this capability with some trickery.
I was initially thinking of running two VMs and setting their resolutions set to half the screen... But of course, GPU sharing for VMs is an enterprise feature so that's not possible.
I actually thought about buying a second GPU to pass through to a VM and getting an HDMI multi-view adapter to split the screen - but that's kind of dumb.
Given Linux containers can share a GPU, is there a solution through containerization? I know I can use something like LXC to containerize an OS, but I'm not sure if graphical applications can be containerized like that.
Any ideas?

Controller Fix for Silksong?
Title. To be clear, I think it's awesome that I can run Silksong without proton. However, when I don't, right trigger works as a toggle when double tapped only and I can't tap it for midair dashes, instant use, etc. I also get no rumble without proton.
However, when I enable proton, all pre-rendered visuals are now broken. Does anyone know of a better fix?

Hollow Knight: Silksong is out now with Linux / SteamOS and Steam Deck support
This is Amazing - Some of 2025’s Biggest Game Releases on Linux
I know Linux still has some problems, like Nvidia driver issues and the annoying anti-cheat situation.
But for me (having used Linux since 2014), this is something I never thought would happen - some AAA games even work on day one now.
I would also prefer more native Linux builds - like what happened with Hollow Knight: Silksong and Cronos: The New Dawn - which was very nice. But for sure, Proton has really been a game changer.
We are eating good, guys!

discord screen share still doesnt share audio sometimes
Xbox Series X controller is bugging out when using it with Xpadneo
I am on Arch and I have installed Xpadneo driver to connect my Xbox Controller with it
When I first boot into the system, it works perfectly fine but right as I disconnect and reconnect, the Right and Left triggers stop working
I am connected via bluetooth so maybe thats a problem.
The rest of the buttons and sticks work fine, only the triggers bug out, it is working fine on my windows machine so there isn't a problem with the controller.
Anyone got ideas on how to fix this desync? Thanks

How to play multiplayer in Forza Horizon 5?
I have been trying to create a convoy and invite my friends to it in forza horizon 5 and the friend list isnt actually appearing.
