"lutris has encountered an error buffer is not large enough"
Well I'm dumb
So I recently bought a new to me laptop(Dell G3) and installed Pop_os and ive been playing around with it and steam. I was thinking about installing bazzite so I could get the console like experience then after I hooked up my wireless Xbox controller and pressed the Xbox button opening Big Picture Mode in Steam to my shock and excitement, then I realized I didn't need bazzite in order to get a console like experience. glad I figured it out but boy do I feel stupid! XD
I hope my ignorance can help somebody else out there that is having trouble with their setup.

Red Dead Redemption 2 extremely slow on Linux Mint.
I have a i5-1135G7 with Iris Xe and 16 GB of RAM (laptop). I've tried this game on Windows and it worked just fine. Proton Experimental and Protons GE don't make a difference. The graphics are all low and the game is just flat out unplayable.
What's weird is that the game lets me change all the settings with the exception of the refresh rate. Perhaps that has something to do with it? The game is also running off an external SSD, but I have GTA V and IV and other games on that SSD just fine. I'm at a loss right now.

Can't play GTA V with Epic store in Heroic Launcher
When I start the game, the Rockstar Launcher asks me to buy it, even if I already have it with Epic. My game is installed in another drive and the Rockstar game is installed in /home because It can't be installed in the same drive as the game.
Obs: I am currently using the Flatpak version of the application, but I believe I should consider trying the AppImage or DEB version instead.

Any way to always allow remote interaction on GNOME? I want to use my controller as mouse, which means, I'm not near the PC to toggle this thing every single time. To be worst, it resets from time to time and ask again in a few minutes.

After a Year of Hesitation, I Finally Made the Jump to Arch Linux!
Hey everyone,
I’ve been wanting to make the switch to Arch Linux for about a year, but the biggest thing holding me back was gaming—specifically, waiting for games like Call of Duty (yes, I know) to work smoothly.
Recently, I decided I’d had enough of Windows and took the plunge. To make the transition smoother, I bought a second 1 TB SSD. My main 2 TB SSD is now fully dedicated to Arch Linux, and the new 1 TB SSD serves as my Windows drive. While I still need Windows for a few specific games and some work tasks for my day job, I’ve officially moved to Arch for almost everything else—and I’m not looking back.
What’s blown me away is how well gaming works on Arch. Sure, I had to do a little bit of tweaking at first, but I can now download almost any game and just play. It’s incredible. The level of compatibility has completely exceeded my expectations, and from everything I’ve seen, it only keeps getting better.
At this point, I only boot into Windows for a couple of games and when I have to work from home. The rest of the time, Arch Linux is my daily driver—and I couldn’t be happier.
If anyone out there is on the fence about switching, especially for gaming, I’d say go for it. It’s not as daunting as it used to be, and the results are genuinely mind-blowing.

Void Stranger crashing, failing to open a file
I have setup Lutris and got a handful of games working. However Void Stranger crashes immediately, no matter what I do.
The log is here: https://pastebin.com/EgspNqSF
... and what I assume is the relevant error is in the following line: ERROR!!! :: Failed to open file: voidstranger_data.csv for buffer_load()
Any idea?
EDIT: Solved, it was actually quite stupid... see the comment below

Can I use my LG C2 OLED TV to play games on Linux? Will it be inferior to Windows since Linux doesn't have HDR?
Imo, game devs not having to do native ports is a good thing
Enlisted finally supports proton without anti-cheat kicking you (It probably had for a while, but I noticed this only now) and works quite good. Meanwhile native port shits itself every 5 minuets.
A lot of people see proton as being bad, because developers won't bother making a native port, but I actually think that it's good.
I think developers not doing a native port is good, because a lot of the time it's either sub-par, or borderline unusable. Enlisted being a good example. Native doesn't allow you to change any graphical settings at runtime, has issue with mouse locking which will not be resolved, because it's an engine issue and gaijin doesn't give a shit, and it crashes constantly.
Meanwhile windows build running through proton has non of the above mentioned issues.
Now that doesn't mean that developers shouldn't make native versions. There a lot of positive examples, like flight of nova, terraria, valheim(hit or miss), cs2 etc... But not having to make that port is a good thing, because at the end of the day, most devs don't care about 4%(at best) of gamers that run linux.

I'm staggered with native linux games, like Shadow of the Tomb Raider
I just decided to buy this game since I 100% all previous ones, I remember that Rise of the Tomb Raider didn't run so well on Windows 11 on High settings.
Now that I switched to Linux I just decided to try Shadow of TR and the game already preset all on Ultra, my first thought was "Haha, let's see just out of curiosity how it'll run", I was hopping for a terrible experience with heavy stuttering and probably 30-40FPS. Then, suddenly it started running at mostly constant 60FPS, not dropping below 40FPS, not a single stuttering.
That's just insane!!!
I couldn't believe that, how is this even possible? Or am I mistaken something here? Does Shadow of TR really runs better than Rise of TR? Because the difference is insane.

Issues with Wayland and Modded Minecraft
I recently updated to Kubuntu 24.10, which was a move from x11 to Wayland. Everything has been way quicker and smoother and it has been fantastic, except for Minecraft. When I attempt to run my custom 1.12.2 modpack (which worked on the previous x11 version and Windows) the game reaches the main menu, then promptly crashes:
# A fatal error has been detected by the Java Runtime Environment: # # SIGBUS (0x7) at pc=0x000073dda9e387cc, pid=20523, tid=0x000073ddd8dff6c0 # # JRE version: OpenJDK Runtime Environment (8.0_432) (build 1.8.0_432-8u432-ga~us1-0ubuntu2~24.10-ga) # Java VM: OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (25.432-bga mixed mode linux-amd64 compressed oops) # Problematic frame: # C [libnvidia-glcore.so.560.35.03+0xa387cc] # # Failed to write core dump. Core dumps have been disabled. To enable core dumping, try "ulimit -c unlimited" before starting Java againI had updated my Nvidia driver to 560 to avoid issues with Wayland and my GPU (GTX 1080).
Any help getting this back up and running would be greatly appreciated!

Games such as AC Mirage, Valhalla and stalker 2 causing mesa driver crashes on Rx 7900 XTX XFX on Mesa 24.3.0.
PC information:
- OS: CachyOS updated as of 30/11/2024
- R9 7900x
- 64GB ddr5 6000 cl34 (originally 6400 which I down-clocked to 6000)
- XFX Rx 7900 XTX
- Corsair Hx1500i PSU, I am running 3 separate pcie 8 pin cables to each of the graphics card 8 pin ports.
- OS is on a SP XS70 4TB, remaining drives are 2 samsung 980 PRO 2TB
- CPU is cooled with an Arctic Liquid Freezer III 420mm AIO
- Driver version is Mesa 24.3.0
- kernel is Linux 6.12.1-arch1-1
Extra Information: DE is Kde plasma 6.2.4, Wayland, Tried to play the games in question with proton experimental, proton cachyos, proton-ge 9-20, and proton 9.0-3, all experience the same behavior of playing fine for a few minutes and then crashing the mesa driver, I am using LACT from the cachyOS repository to increase the power limit of the graphics card from 327W to 402W.
I have installed the CachyOS gaming meta as a way to have all the necessary packages for gaming without having to manually install them all, I previously gamed with a 4090 and before that a 7900XT when it released so I don't have a comparison point, still , I do not find anyone else with similar reports online and I sure hope it is not faulty hardware, I have not tried windows and other distros, as CachyOS has always provided for me and I enjoy using Arch, at least not since mesa 24.3's release, I am not using mesa-git, just standard mesa, if I have missed anything please tell me in the comments, I may have forgotten to include things.

Friendly reminder that our Cyberpunk game has a live demo, runs natively on Linux, and it's very resource friendly :) Why don't you give it a try this weekend and leave us some feedback? (details in comment)

ULTRAKILL freezes after i try running it in the terminal with "gamescope wine ULTRAKILL.exe"
Also there is no issue if i try running it trough Lutris but FSR doesnt work nor any of the Super + shortcuts and seems that most the options for FSR are missing like "gamescope input resolution" "gamescope output resolution" "FSR strenght"

Fuck it I'm switching. But I need some advice.
Microsoft just pushed AI on my windows 10 install (didn't upgrade to 11 specifically because I wanted to avoid that), Google has killed u block and now I think it's time to bite the bullet. I am by no means new to Linux I've used it for years (servers & secondary machines) and I even take classes for the command line (electrical engineering degree) but some things have kept my main rig on windows all this time.
Controversial as it may be I am a pirate (financial situation) and I need to continue to be a pirate of I wanna continue to be a gamer anything else is a deal breaker. Witch leads me to my question. How far have translation layers come? Will they work with pirated games and if so can I keep the games I already have? My PC only has a GTX 970 and best upgrade I can consider is a 1080ti wish means if there is to much of a performance degradation it doesn't really work for me.
Secondly not really gaming related but I'm really tired into the Google ecosystem mainly the Password manager I need it to be synced to my phone (Google pixel sadly) I've searched for solutions but none have satisfied me so far so I'm open for suggestions (even a third party os if needed)
