I'M NOT ASKING FOR HELP; JUST ASKING IF OTHER PEOPLE HAVE TRIED THE SAME

I have CoD Cold War on Battle.net, NOT on Steam. For the past few hours, I've been busy setting up the launcher, so it opens as a non-Steam game, and Battle.net itself works fine. But with Cold War, I get the error 80070057, no matter what I try. I've tried dozens of things and commands to make it work, but absolutely nothing works at all.

I'm not directly asking for help, I just want to know if other people have tried doing the same thing, and if they got the same error, or were able to play the game.

I'm sure the game runs properly directly via Steam, but I don't want to spend 20 dollars on a game I've already paid for.

Thanks in advance :)

I recently started another Cyberpunk 2077 playthrough. It's my first playthrough on Linux.

Everything works pretty smooth, game runs with around 70 to 90 FPS at high settings (With DLSS). But sadly the Game starts to stutter after around an hour of playing (Mostly when it is foggy or when it's raining.

At first, I simply thought it's related to CPU/GPU temperatures. But my CPU is at around 70 to 80°C (Which is normal for my CPU under load with PBO). And my GPU only hits around 65°C which is nothing.

I never had this issue on Windows, though I am also not using the same Graphics settings as I can't remember what I used specifically on Windows.

Cyberpunk 2077 runs completely smooth otherwise, the stutters are the only problem. Does anyone know how to fix this or why this happens? Should I just tweak settings? And if yes. Which settings could cause this?

Here are my specs:

CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 7700x GPU: MSI RTX 4070 Super 12GB Vram RAM: 32GB G.Skill Trident DDR5

Game platform:Steam with ProtonGE 10

OS: Fedora 43 with KDE Plasma 6

All drivers and packages are fully up-to-date btw.

Hey Folks,

I'm a brand new Linux user and I'm having difficults getting a steam game to launch. I can bypass the known EAC error just fine by disabling the wifi, but once I pass the initialization and the game launches, it immediately crashes and the steam "play" button in my library turns back to green. please let me know if other information is needed to help resolve this.

I've been trying to get this enabled and no joy.

I'm running PopOS 24.04 (Kernel 6.17.9-76061709-generic) on a ROG STRIX B560-I GAMING using the latest BIOS v2405 (12/11/2025). Running an RTX3090 with driver version 580.119.02 and a i5-11600KF. Everything hardware wise checks as compatible.

Above 4G Decoding is Enabled, CSM is Disabled and Resize Bar is Enabled and "ON" in the BIOS but CPU-X is always reporting it as Disabled.

Not sure what else to try, Any pointers would be great.

Hi everyone,

I am running CachyOS (Arch based) and trying to get the native DualSense Haptic Feedback working in The last of us.

The Problem:
I know that the DualSense needs to be recognized as a 4-channel audio device (Analog Surround 4.0) so that the rear channels can drive the haptic motors. However, my system refuses to expose the 4.0 profile. In pavucontrol, I only see "Mono" or "Pro Audio".

It doesn't matter if I select Pro Audio or Mono, I get audio through the controller speaker, but no haptics.

Current Setup & Working Features:

• OS: CachyOS (Arch) with latest Kernel & PipeWire/WirePlumber
• Connection: USB-C Cable.
• Steam Settings: Steam Input is Disabled
• Permissions: game-devices-udev is installed.
• Adaptive Triggers: WORK (tested via dualsensectl and ingame).
• Standard Rumble: WORKS (tested in steam)

What I have tried so far:

1. ALSA Mixer: I noticed the PCM channel was muted (MM) in alsamixer. I unmuted it (00) and set it to 100%. This enabled audio through the speaker, but didn't bring back the 4.0 profile.
2. Forcing the Profile via CLI: I tried to force the profile manually using the card name found in pactl list cards short:
3. pactl set-card-profile alsa_card.usb-Sony_Interactive_Entertainment_DualSense_Wireless_Controller-00 output:analog-surround-40 Result: Failure: No such entity. It seems the 4.0 profile is not generated or available for this card index.
4. UCM Configs: I tried moving/renaming the ALSA UCM config files (/usr/share/alsa/ucm2/USB-Audio/Sony/DualSense*) to force a generic detection, hoping it would expose the raw 4 channels. Result: No change, still only Mono available.
5. WirePlumber Rules: Tried creating a rule in ~/.config/wireplumber/wireplumber.conf.d/ to force audio.channels = 4, but it seems I cannot override the profile availability.

Summary:
The hardware works. The permissions are good (triggers work). The issue seems to be entirely within PipeWire/ALSA refusing to map the controller as a Quadraphonic/4.0 device, which prevents the game from sending haptic data to the motors.

Does anyone know how to force a specific channel map or fix the missing 4.0 profile on CachyOS/Arch with the current PipeWire version?

Btw. it worked on a previous version of Cachy OS without problems but after resetting my PC because I had some problems it won't work anymore.

Thanks in advance!

Switched to Bazzite OS (Gnome) and I've encountered a weird problem while playing. If I move my mouse too fast, it switches screen. I've seen some people fixing it by putting this :
PROTON_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 %command%
in the Launch options, but it didn't work for me.
Happened during a bossfight while playing Borderlands 4 and I died because of it

After a long time without playing it because it didn't even want to open (it just popped the button back to "Play" in Heroic), I decided to uninstall it and start over so the installation files at least get cleaned.

But after reinstalling and opening it, this window pops up showing "Unexpected error: #1" without any explanation on what it is. I just wanted to friggin' play the game.

And the window leaves its trail while I move, very much like Windows XP used to.

Is this not fixed yet? Thanks for your support in advance.

Hi, as the title states i'm a linux noob trying to understand some things, and after succeeding at installing my first game on linux, I have a few questions concerning what was automatically installed by steam :

Steam Linux Runtime 1.0 (scout), 2.0 (soldier) and 3.0 (sniper) were automatically installed when downloading my game (The Binding of Isaac), what are they and what are their use ?

Steam Common Redistributables was also installed and idk what it is.

As well as Proton experimental, that was installed after i changed the compatibility settings to proton experimental (because the game wasn't starting and I read somewhere that this is where you change the compatibility of games so I just tried it and it worked but idk what it is nor how it works.

And finally if anyone has any tips regarding gaming on linux for a newby, feel free to share :)

Thank you in advance for the anwsers.

(oh and I use Pop!_OS 24.04 LTS)

I have a fairly basic PC: i5 10400F, H510M, 16GB DDR4 2666MHz RAM, PCI 3.0, 5060TI 16GB. Windows is cumbersome, and the PC itself doesn't help (not counting the GPU). I was wondering if switching to Linux with Bazzite, for example, would be advisable. I don't know how well Linux will run on a PC of this caliber and an Nvidia 5000 series card. I would greatly appreciate any help.

Hi everyone! I made the switch to Linux Mint a month ago and I'm happy with it. Except with OBS. seriously, this software is driving me crazy!

I'm a small streamer and I have absolutely no idea which version of OBS should I choose ! The regular version downloaded via the software manager (version 30.0.2+dfsg-3build1) or flatpak (version 32.0.4) ?

At first I chose the flatpak version but the audio is so jerky... so I'm using the software manager version but it seems it doesn't work with Aitum vertical (I can't record audio)

Do you have an idea ? I don't even know where to start for that problem (except using the v30)

My specs :

Linux Mint 22.3 - Cinnamon 64-bit

Processor : Intel© Core™ i5-9300H CPU @ 2.40GHz × 4

GPU : NVIDIA Corporation TU106M [GeForce RTX 2060 Mobile]

RAM : 16 Go

I play Minecraft bedrock because all of my friends are on console/mobile. I switched to linux because I hate Microsoft.

I use the unofficial Minecraft Bedrock Launcher to run the game but theres several problems.

First, I dont have the patience or mental fortitude to run a server and give everyone a port and IP so they can join my dumb little worlds, and no way I’m paying to get a company to do it for me, nor do I want to risk someone ruining something while im gone.

Second, Even if I could run a server, I have a skygen and suffice it to say that it’s designed around P2P joining and using a server would effectively kill it. (I’ll explain in the comments if you care)

Third, the whole reason I use bedrock is because all my friends are on console/mobile so they cant make a server for their worlds and run it. The most any of them could do is a realm and they’re all broke

td;dr: without p2p world joining I can’t host worlds for my friends to join, I can’t host my skygen, and I cant join my friends. Please help me do p2p on the unofficial launcher or if theres another client I could use 🙏

So I'm new to gaming on Linux. I use bazzite. I have a couple of questions.

1.) I have an Nvidia graphics card (RTX 5080), and I feel like DLSS is acting a bit weird. It's hard to pinpoint, and I only tested it in Diablo 4. The performance of DLSS is terrible in that game with DLSS 4. I'm at 90% GPU usage (75% on Windows) vs FSR 2, which only uses 65%. I'm playing on 4K, so I don't mind using FSR. It looks excellent in quality mode, especially in 4k. But also, I'm kind of disappointed that it runs that badly because the features like DLSS are obviously a huge selling point for NVIDIA cards, and you pay a premium for that. Anyone got similar issues, or is it maybe just D4?

2.) If I'm staying on Linux, do you think I should go for an AMD card next time, or will the Nvidia cards improve in the long run? If some of you have NVIDIA cards and play on Linux for longer, was there substantial improvement in the time you used it?

3.) I think I will stay on Linux. The thing that surprised me the most is how stable the games are in regard to frame times. There is almost no stuttering compared to Windows. Did you experience the same?

4.) Since I'm still on an Intel CPU and DDR4, I was thinking about switching to a 9800x3d and DDR5 RAM. Will I see some improvements there? I know that my specs are really good, and my current motherboard and RAM will be used for a server I want to build; otherwise, I would obviously not "upgrade."

My specs are: GPU: RTX 5080 (Asus TUF) CPU: Intel I7-14700K RAM: 64GB DDR4 3600
