Hi,

I was trying to find the answer to this, but with no luck unfortunately.

I would like to wake up the PC with Xbox Controller by pressing the Xbox Button (like on the console), but using BT connection with my Intel AX200 PCIe Wifi + BT card. I managed to make it work with the Xbox Wireless Adapter with XONE package, but I can't use the dongle unfortunately, because it has lower range than the BT signal. I have the "wake from usb" enabled in BIOS as well as turned on the "power to the usb while sleep" so in theory it should be possible as the PC recognizes the PCIe card as USB with "lsusb" command right ?

I've always been someone to strictly play multiplayer games because I just never found the fun in playing single player ones. However, after all the new releases and since most things run on Linux nowadays anyways, what are good single player games that I should play?
What are some that most people tend to like, give me some from a variety of genres and your personal recommendations please

Basically the title, didn't they make a special vanguard version just for apple that doesn't enter directly on kernel?

trying to run a non steam game with proton experimental. it runs outside steam, but it needs to authenticate to steam to work, but when i try to do it, the game either doesn't run or shows that error. i tried installing proton-ge 9.27, but that doesn't work either

anyone has any idea on how to fix that?

Hey was wondering if anyone has had a similar issue in the clip above when they enable dlss frame gen. (For other games too)

Issue: The issue I'm having is whenever I enable frame gen there are points where everyframe will have severe ghosting with stutters as if each frame is skipping and then not at the same time. The clop shows it at points but it looks a lot more extreeme on my setup. When frame gen isn't enabled this problem no longer exists

I'm on arch and the problems persists on both X11 and wayland, I'm using a BTRFS if that makes any difference with ZFS compression enabled and on release 570 drivers w/ a 4080 super + latest kernel.

Tried on GE-Proton9-27, Proton 9.0-4 & Experimental

Any help is appreciated.

anyone know anything about getting gta 5 online to work on linux or anyone has created something to bypass this rockstar battle aye garbage because rockstar dosent want to enable linux access for the battle aye

Hello, I just want to ask people who actively play ow on linux how is the performance on linux ?, I am eventualy to completly swap to a debian based distro and it would be good if ow was still playable, for reference I have a semi-constant 200fps going on windows, what can I expect with proton ?

Hi, in the last few days my computer has started crashing at random times during gameplay.
At first I thought that it was a memory problem, but I ran memtest86+ for a few hours and found no errors. So after googling a bit I ran journalctl and got this. The crash seems to start at the line with amdgpu: [gfxhub] page fault (src_id:0 ring:24 vmid:5 pasid:32786), but I included other steam/kernel errors as they might be relevant.

I have an amd ryzen 5600, amd radeon rx6700 xt and 32 gb of ram.

Is there a solution besides changing gpu? I got it used like a year ago and had no problems until now.

One last look at Doom Eternal running at 4K max settings on a 4090. Thanks to the game using Vulkan, this game runs amazing well on Linux and Nvidia. I can't wait to play Dark Ages. I will defiantly sharing footage of the new game once it is released.

Hello community,

I am currently researching components to build a new Linux PC. I decided on a small form factor build using AMD Ryzen 9 9900X, 64 GB RAM, and no GPU for now (no plan of gaming and currently not enough value to get a GPU solely for local LLMs).

For the motherboard I thought of going for ASRock B650E PG-ITX WiFi BUT I randomly found a YT video showcasing a SFF build, which used Asus ROG Strix X870-I Gaming WiFi.
The build was very cool which made me think of going for the Asus instead of the ASRock now.

Do you guys have any insights into why choose one over the other, pros/cons, etc?

It seems to me that Asus is a bit more future proof with also more connectivity but maybe coil whine while the ASRock's fan seems to be loud but can be turned down in the BIOS.

I've noticed a lot of posts from people completely new to the world of Linux, which typically go along the lines of "hey I'm sick of Windows and I want to give Linux a try. I like gaming, where should I start?" All good so far

This will then usually get a dozen of the same type of response, "Anything is fine/Try anything you like the look of/Bounce around some distros see what works"

So this is true, fundamentally you won't go wrong with most distros, and there's something to be said for getting your hands dirty with something and truly seeing for yourself.

But man this does not account for human psychology at all

Imagine you want to buy a car, and know nothing about cars so you ask "hey what's a good car?", and people respond "oh they're all the same just pick one". Or you know nothing about laptops, and when asking which is a good buy people respond "oh they're all fine just pick one in your price range"

People are perpetually victims to decision paralysis, that's why they scroll Netflix endlessly or will struggle to pick a meal off a restaurant menu, there's too much choice. Conversely if you have an ice cream shop with literally 3 flavours people find it much easier to "just pick one".

Linux is overwhelming coming in fresh, people need some form of reference. Now this doesn't mean you have to be an evangelist for a specific distro, and it's good to ultimately mention that any distro is basically fine, but there needs to be some solid foundation for newbies to focus on

So, instead of "just pick what you like the look of", instead suggest say 3 specific distros *and* caveat with "...but ultimately anything you like the look of will work" if you need to. Newbies now have some kind of reference to work with and will gain some kind of consensus from the replies, but will still be aware that there's isn't a magic distro and it can be good to shop around

For example, I've had a great time with Fedora so that's one I suggest. I'm also aware that Bazzite and Linux Mint are well regarded and newbie friendly so I also recommend those too. So that's 3 solid suggestions I can recommend to a complete beginner, and they can still be told that other options are fine too. It doesn't make my answer magically right but it's far more helpful to a new guy, and ironically makes it much easier for them to "just pick one"
