just out of curiosity. for me personally, it's "GOG"

HI, I recently started dual booting windows 11 and cachyOS.
I've been trying to use my preexisting files for steam and epic games through wine and I managed to get it to work perfectly (except for some minor issues), but on both of them I get error 1 when trying to launch games that use EAC.
Is there any solution or do I have no other option but to make new installations for linux?

Hi peoples, i was wondering if any of you have been able to find a software that can customize keyboards with Hall Effect sensors. Since the keyboard i use, a Womier TMR SK75, doesn't have a linux version of the software and i have no idea how i would get the software running on my install. I have heard that you can use a udev rule to use wine and get around that way but i wouldn't know how to do all of that lol.

As of recent Proton 10 versions (Steam built-in, GE and CachyOS) I've started seeing a weird "ghost" copy window on my left monitor. The content is not interactable, but whatever this window covers is no longer clickable either. I cannot move it by any means, even by holding Super and dragging, which does work for other windows.

What is this? It only seems to happen when running the game in XWayland, but I can't use native Wayland due to the launcher breaking completely.

Screenshot provided is for AC Content Manager, but this issue is present on other games as well, often Unity-based. Currently running Proton-CachyOS 10.0-20251023

Hello guys, so with the good reception of the first release on here. I now added support for the FNV and Oblivion BSA Decompressor mods. They are now also super fast. So fast in fact that the TTW installer took 4 and half minutes on my end!

im trying to run my controller (mechanike G5 pro), but it does not recognize, I've tried using bottles, but the program for calibration just won't start... im pretty new to Linux, what should I do? help ;-;

After installing a game, any game for that matter, and pressing play, it doesnt launch a game. it says it is running, but theres no window popping up.

Im on Zorin OS 18, newest Heroic launcher version and tried through different Proton and Wine versions. No errors or log entries.

I just switched from Windows 11 to Ubuntu on my home PC, and wanted to try to play Ultrakill, which if you know, is Windows exclusive. So I did research and found out I needed to enable Steam Proton, but I don't know which one I should use since I have little to no experience using this stuff.

Hey everyone,

since a few days I have a really strange problem. I am playing WoW Classic MoP via Faugus Launcher. It worked like a charm for months but suddenly I get this message when trying to install a game update. Same problem on other distros and Heroic Launcher. Also tried Proton GE and CachyOS Proton in different versions. Also installed battle.net completely new. Problem still presists. Any idea what causing this problem?

I've been wanting to switch to Linux for quite some time, but there are several things that always make me reluctantly return to Windows for the following reasons.

Does anyone know of any GOOD alternatives to the following apps for Linux?

- Adobe suite: I'm not a professional, but I always like to edit videos and photos in Photoshop and Premiere as a hobby, so I'd like a good alternative to these two. (It doesn't have to be free, but if it is, even better).

(For editing, I would be totally happy with Davinci if someone could help me get Davinci Box to detect my graphics card, as I can't get it to work properly in Arch).

- Parsec: I mainly use it to play games with my friends, and obviously I can't host on Linux, so I would like a solution other than Sunshine and Moonlight to stream any game outside of Steam.

- Obs panels: in Wayland, the custom Obs panels don't work properly for some reason, which means I can't use some plugins that I use a lot, as well as having the Twitch chat there, and when I did get it working, the streams were very laggy.

And those would be all the problems I have. If anyone could help me, I would really appreciate it. Thank you very much in ad

I want to activate force feedback but I don't know how, help meeeeee I used it as a generic controller on Steam, it detected the steering wheel, and I approved it in My Summer Car. I use Debian 13 with GNOME

Hey guys!

Has anyone been able to run Split Fiction through the EA App? I'm using Heroic to run it, but when i hit play it shows 'Failed to launch the game. An error on our end caused the launch to fail. Try again a little later'

Any idea is there's a fix for this? I already tried verifying the game files and got the same thing

Ich will zu Linux wechseln, da ich schon zum 2. Mal in Folge ein Windows Update nicht installieren kann. Kann mir jemand eine Distro für Linux Anfänger und zudem Gamer empfehlen? Ich hab ne Nvidia Grafikkarte und spiele hauptsächlich Minecraft, falls das hilfreich ist. Danke schon im Voraus! 😘

Hello guys. I played GTA V a couple of years ago, when I got it for free from Epic. I was still on Windows at the time.

Honestly, I didn't really enjoy that game? I might be one of the 30 people on Earth to feel this way. The story didn't really grip me, and I found the world uninteresting.

However, I am a massive fan of RDR2, which is one of my favourite games of all time, alongside the Witcher 3, Baldur's Gate 2: Shadows of Amn, and Disco Elysium. I have also recently pllayed GTA IV and liked it.

Given this, I feel obliged to give Gta v one last chance?

However, is there even any reliable way to play this game on Linux? I know that the PC release has an antocheat that makes it impossible to launch.

I tried emulating the PS3 version, but it always freezes within the first couple of minutes.

Given this, is this game unplayable on Linux?

Edit I know about Heroic. I use it every day. When I installed GTA V some one year ago it did not work so I assumed it's still the caze

I'm trying to launch Mudrunner on my old laptop running Linux Mint, the specs are in the picture. I think I'm running Proton Experimental but I am not sure. The laptop runs other games fine (only tried MX Bikes). It's old and shitty though so I don't know. I linked the specs and the error message I get, thanks for helping.

Hello, up until today I had been playing Balatro on my Steamdeck and my windows PC. I had no issues with my cloud saves syncing up. Today I installed pop_os and when I try to launch balatro it tells me the cloud saves are up to date but the game has 0 progress like I never played it at all. Does anyone have a fix for this? There are no errors, when I launch a round on the steam deck it works fine and I can even see the desktop side fetch the latest cloud save when I close the game but when I launch it is like I have never played before.

I have toggled on the XXMI option, opened the mod folder, added mods to the mod folder, and disabled "Dynamic Character Resolution" option in-game.

Whenever I press play, a black terminal-like window appears. Other than that, nothing else happens/changes to the game. It runs normally without the mods being loaded in.

I am using Ubuntu, if that's significant to this problem,

The terminal-like window that pop-ups after pressing play but before the game launches

XXMMI option enabled

This window pop-ups when I press the purple \"Open mods folder\" button (found in the previous picture)

Mods folder being populated
