how to get the most fps out of Minecraft Linux.

I have a laptop with a i3 2370m and alotbof optimization mods installed but yet I get 15 fps on lowest settings Debian 13 Trixie kde

So I'm trying to get wmvs running so I can play resident evil, I installed GE proton which works for the newer titles but not the original for some reason. Reading around it was suggested to install wm11 with proton 5.0, but when I try I get the error message

warning: /home/simon/.cache/protontricks/proton/Proton 5.0/bin/wine cmd.exe /c echo '%AppData%' returned empty string, error message "esync: up and running."

This happens for all other versions of proton too, except GE. What I think is the problem is the space in the folder titled Proton 5.0, in the proton folder, all proton version folders have spaces except for the GE folder. Furthermore when I directly run the command

wine cmd.exe /c echo '%AppData% from inside the proton 5.0 folder it gives the desired output. What can I do about this? When I run protontricks it creates the proton 5.0 folder during the process so I can't simply rename it.

I haven't tried but I assume I would get the same error trying to install things other than wm11

Hello, sorry if I flaired this wrong I am a bit of a noob. Elder Scrolls Online works fine(at least I think, cant access 90% of the game lol) , but cannot initialize connection with Steam. All the fixes for this issue suggest running Steam as administrator, but from what I know thats a big no-no on linux systems. Anything else I can do? Running Linux Mint 22.2 Cinnamon, older hardware if thats necessary info but was capable of running ESO on windows. Using native Deb version of steam directly from Valve.

So, I get these strange lines which I would guess is a GPU issue. However, I only get this on the MC Eternal modpack. I tried stonework through the same launcher (prism) and i dont see them. Every other game i dont see them either. Anyone else having this issue? On CachyOS, RTX 4060 laptop, i7 14650-hx.

After less than 3 minutes of shutting down, it was already cold, so I believe it didn't shut down on its own due to overheating. What could it have been? I've had the notebook for 3 days. This is my first time using Linux, and I'm interested in learning it, so I'm not switching to Windows.

Not sure if this belongs here but I built this game for Linux gamers/enthusiast over a weekend. It's a click and play Flappy Bird game but you're Tux escaping Microsoft bloatware and eating windows for lunch. Obstacles include Recall, Telemetry, Edge "default browser" nags, and Clippy's vengeful ghost. Crash messages are the best part honestly.

Linux Gaming already feels mainstream but with Steam Machine on the way feels like 2026 is going to be a rock solid year where most consumers get in. Let the great migration begin!

i was thinking to swap to the linux so i checked the games that i played and thinking of playing and all the games were either gold or platium is there still some games that doesn't work on linux? (except for the games that use kernel level anti cheat)
i tried to use linux on my old laptop a couple of years ago but the proton doesn't that good if i remember correctly

Hi, I was wondering how I can install Minecraft on a MacBook Pro M2 running Fedora 40 (I already tried on minecraft.com by installing all the extensions, GDLauncher, PolyMC, Prism, but nothing worked because the packages were all for x64-86 or for Fedora 42 or 39). Does anyone have a solution, please?

Hello all,

i just switched over to Linux Mint. I have the sims 3 hard copies how do I download this game on my computer? do I have to get the digital copies?

God I'm never getting another linux gaming device. I have had nothing but trouble with the Steam Deck.

I haven't played on Windows since I installed Bazzite and got a Legion Go S. (SteamOS). If the first couple months of 2025 weren't counted, I would have 0% Windows. Loving the Linux gaming scene.

I'm planning to migrate from Windows to Fedora Workstation but have some concerns regarding the Nvidia drivers and potential performance loss.

My Setup:

• Ryzen 5 5600
• RTX 2060
• 32GB DDR4
• 2TB NVMe

I mostly play AAA titles and use emulators (Switch/WiiU). I occasionally play online competitive games (Dota 2, OW2, CS2, Deadlock), but my focus is single-player. Currently playing Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, Baldur's Gate 3, and Zelda BotW.Given the current state of Nvidia proprietary drivers on Wayland/X11, what kind of performance hit should I realistically expect? Is the FPS drop negligible enough to justify the migration for the better OS environment and privacy, or is the overhead still too high for a 2060 running modern AAAs?

heck yeah

Which Linux headphones with microphone should have a minimum battery life of 40 hours, be durable, and provide clear sound?

Please help me, the game won't open. It was downloaded from Dodi Repacks, but it won't open. I tested Heroic, Steam, and nothing. On Steam, I use Proton Cachy OS, on Heroic Wine 8.0, and it simply won't open.

(If you need more information, let me know)

GAME: RE4 Remake (Dodi Repack) Distro: Cachy OS KDE Plasma Wine/Proton: Wine 8.0/Proton Cachy OS

specs:

9700X

9060XT

32Gb ram

Fedora 43

CachyOs kernel 6.18.0

TLDR: What should I know before buying a graphics cards for my Linux system?

I switched to Linux around 2 months ago and happy that I did. Gaming is not optimal, but ok. Most of my games work totally fine with proton and some workarounds, but some games just will not work at all (already checked protonDB). I have an really old graphics card: Nvidia geforce gtx 760. Even on windows some newer games would just not run on this old card. It worked perfectly fine for most of its live, but now I want to update.

I will probabaly buy a used card and nothing fancy. I just want a reasonable card that carries me for at least the next ten years of gaming like this one did without it losing support for newer games. I do not care about fancy graphics.

Is there something I need to look out for when it comes to updating cards on Linux? Are there certain cards that work bad on Linux?

My current system specs:

OS: Linux Mint Cinnamon (22.1 Xia)

Kernel: 6.8.0-90-generic

Mainboard: ASRock B450M-HDV R4.0

CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 2600

GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 760

RAM: 16 GiB DDR4

EDIT: Budget around 200€ for the card
