I'm very concerned about where electronic waste ends up, so with that in mind, I recorded a video giving an idea of ​​what to do with an old PC to increase its useful life.

GE-Proton10-2 Released

19. Mai 2025 - 14:00

GE-Proton10-2 Released

Repository: GloriousEggroll/proton-ge-custom · Tag: GE-Proton10-2 · Commit: b454e49 · Released by: GloriousEggroll

Hotfix release:

Fixes missing comma in proton script causing prefix issues (this was also a valve upstream issue) Fixes accidental import of the steam ffmpeg libraries instead of the ones we build and ship (this was an accidental copy/paste when porting changes from Proton 10) -- this should fix video playback in a lot of titles as they worked in proton 9 Removes setting ENABLE_HDR_WSI -- this option is only specific for the vk_hdr_layer (https://github.com/Zamundaaa/VK_hdr_layer) hack, which is -not- needed as of mesa 25.1 and can cause washed out colors. If you previously used this, it's advised to remove it, and update mesa to 25.1 if you want HDR. added a few patches for allowing more launchers to work in wayland (epic, battlenet, star citizen) added patch to allow 32 bit EOS overlay to work for Among Us. added raw input patches for winewayland (un-accelerated mouse) added touchpad scrolling support patch for winewayland xalia library updates imported from upstream dxvk updated to latest git vkd3d-proton updated to latest git

This release has 6 assets:

Can't Get Nvidia Proprietary Drivers Working With Weird PC Config

19. Mai 2025 - 12:59

Hello, I've been stuck with this issue for a day and half now so any help would be greatly appreciated.

This config worked for some time on my last Fedora install (with 550 proprietary driver) but I need to reinstall the OS and it just doesn't want to work in any way I've tried so far:

  • I've tried various distros: Arch, EndevaourOS, Mint, Fedora (Workstation & KDE Plasma Edition), they all will fail to work correctly after installing the proprietary drivers, with nouveau they at least booted
  • I would like to use Fedora if possible
    • I've tried using drivers from both RPMFusion & Nvidia's own site (550 and 570)
    • I've tried to add this into a modprobe.d config file:options nvidia NVreg_OpenRmEnableUnsupportedGpus=1
    • I've tried using both X and Wayland
  • I've disabled Secure Boot
    • I've also tried using CSM instead of UEFI Booting, disabling SVM mode and memory fast boot but these didn't help so I've reverted them
  • Most of the times what happens after installing the new drivers and rebooting:
    • nvidia-smi doesn't recognize the device
    • nvidia-settings doesn't show any useful information
    • display gets stretched (runs at 720p on my 3440x1440p 21:9 monitor)
    • Sometimes black screens / desktop freezes also happened
  • I've ran some commands and tried searching for a bit on forums as well, maybe this is helpful information:

My PC specs are:

  • CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 5700x3D
  • GPU: Nvidia RTX 3080Ti Mobile ("Chinese AliExpress/Ebay Special")
  • RAM: Mixed G.Skill 2x8GB + Kingston 2x4GB (running at the Kingston's lower speed I think)
  • Motherboard: MSI B450 Tomahawk Max (BIOS Version: E7C02AMS.3K2, Build Date: 08/30/2024)
  • Storage: Samsung 970 EVO Plus 1TB Nvme Drive + 240GB Crucial SATA SSD

Why does valve only officially support the .Deb steam packages?

19. Mai 2025 - 12:27

Basically as title. It's weird how they only officially support .deb for installation. Why not rpm/flatpaks etcs

PCSX2 Wayland performance issues

19. Mai 2025 - 11:57

I've installed PCSX2 on my system to play some games and was quite disappointed by the fact that it runs worse than on Windows (example: speed drops from 100% to 75% all the time in Midnight Club 3). After some time of googling I've found out that the issue is Wayland support that was added not too long ago. Tested on X11 and it works flawlessly. Question is: is there some way of running PCSX2 on wayland without performance loss or I need to switch to X11 every time I want to play?

Gaming PC for sofa gaming or maybe console?

19. Mai 2025 - 11:03

Hi, has anyone tried hooking up a PC to a living room TV? Is it as seamless as using a console? I’m thinking of building a PC and installing Bazzite or SteamOS. Console game prices get expensive in the long run, and I already have a big library on Steam, Epic, and GOG — not to mention 🏴‍☠️.

Right now, I have a laptop with a 3060, but gaming at desk is not enjoyable on weekdays. Plus, the constant Windows 11 updates make me lose interest in gaming altogether. I’m okay with tweaking and modding stuff on weekends. Surprisingly not many guides on youtube about this.

I’m comfortable playing with either a keyboard and mouse or a controller from the sofa / recliner. So, is this setup feasible? Or should I just forget it and get a PS5 instead?

Game freezes after a while when using prime-run on wine.

19. Mai 2025 - 09:58

I am trying to play Dark Souls III.

My OS is : Arch
My GPU is : Nvidia Geforce 920MX.

When i use wine game.exe , the game runs fine but it uses the iGPU instead of the dGPU so the performance is terrible

using prime-run wine game.exe , the game uses the dGPU but it freezes after a couple of minutes.

Is prime-run the improper way of getting wine to use the dGPU?

Dead Island 2 (Epic version) crashes on "Enter, Continue" splash screen

19. Mai 2025 - 09:47

I cannot get it work on ArchLinux with proton-GE, proton hotfix or proton experimental and also native wine 10.06. Always crashes at this point and also seems that has no audio, but I'm not sure if has any audio until this screen. I cannot test many different versions because denuvo locks it for 24 hours(I already had one lockup), but I tested proton-GE 10.1, 9.27, 9.22, 9.16. I'm using heroic launcher, but also tried with Epic game launcher with same results. I have an Amd Rx 6600 video card. I don't get any useful info from proton log too except these errors:

ERROR: ld.so: object 'libgamemodeauto.so.0' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded (cannot open shared object file): ignored.

ERROR: ld.so: object 'libgamemodeauto.so.0' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded (cannot open shared object file): ignored.

but I didn't find any solution searching about them. Any ideas?

Is there any way to run MapleStory Worlds on Linux?

19. Mai 2025 - 08:52

I have tried the Android version with Waydroid, but the performance is not good enough.

I have installed the Nexon Launcher via Lutris, but every time I click MapleStory Worlds, it returns to the main menu of Nexon Launcher. If I try to open it from the web, it asks me to install NGM to launch the game, but I can't find a way to run NGM on Linux, no matter Bottles or Lutris.

Is there any way to make the NGM work?

Haunted Bluetooth

19. Mai 2025 - 08:41

Hi guys. My input lag is usually fine with my DualSense controller. However, regularly the entire controller looks up. And it accepts no inputs, but the inputs ingame stay , so the character just for example continues running. This even stays when i disable Bluetooth and i have to restart the game.

Can anyone tell me if theres any fix for this? Im using a Bluetooth dongle by ugreen, but this problem is much worse than on windows.

Grand Theft Auto 5 Enhanced crashes on launch (Steam)

19. Mai 2025 - 08:35

After some reading on ProtonDB, I tried to install a custom proton version (GE-Proton9-25-GTA) on steam to see if that would help with the comparability. However when I launch the game it is never able to start. Not even like launches and then crashes, it will say it is launching on steam and then just never do anything.

Going into the compatibility tab in the game's properties and changing the proton version to experimental, or any other version hasn't worked.

I'm a bit confused on what to do. I can't find much of anything online about this at all, so I am unsure where to start. I could use some pointers

Distro: Pop!_OS 22.04 LTS

1080 Ti with the 570 drivers. I have vulkan and those other drivers too (from https://github.com/lutris/docs/blob/master/InstallingDrivers.md)

Joystick woes, please help!

19. Mai 2025 - 06:19

I am attempting to calibrate Ch products fighterstick , CH products pro throttle, and CH products pro pedals. They are connected via USB.

The challenges - evdev-joystick doesn't allow calibration. This is a problem as I need to set a deadzone for the fighterstick, and the throttle is not reading the full Z axis, aka all back still sets it at 15%, and all the way forward about 95%. With a lot of monkeying, (command) [evdev-joystick [ --e /path/to/event/device/file --m minimum_value --M maximum_value [ --a axis_index ] ]] I can set a range for the throttle, but I'm never able to set a specific deadzone. (command) evdev-joystick [ --e /path/to/event/device/file --d deadzone_value [ --a axis_index ] ]

This is because the axis ranges from 0 - 255, with center at 128, but any attempt to set a deadzone does not accept a range and instead seems to think that my center is 0 and the deadzone should have a range from 0. Evdev shows up under "/dev/input/eventX".

That leaves me with the older system, Jscal / Jstest-gtk, which show up under "/dev/input/jsX". The devices are showing up correctly but after calibrating the devices do not save their calibration. Attempting to save the calibration with jscal -store /dev/input/jsXm returns "jscal: joystick has different number of axes (5) than specified in command line (0)".

I suspect that there is a config file somewhere where I need to change the number of axis specified, but I do not know where that file is.

I'd also like to know how to tell programs to use the jsX input instead of ev-dev's /eventX, as the joystick shows up in both places.

Any help would be greatly appreciated! I've been banging my head on the wall for over 20 hours to get this far.

OS: Fedora 41 with KDE Plasma 6.3.5

I have installed the joystick-support package.

Games Crash

19. Mai 2025 - 05:53

For some reason when I play Bauldurs Gate 3 or Wolfenstein New Order. I play for 5 minutes then my game crashes. Can still hear sound and the game going, computer still on but it's completely frozen. I thought it was my old gpu so I recently upgraded my gpu to an Radeon 6600 and was able to play those games perfectly good since I upgraded. Even kindom come deliverance ran pretty well. But now I'm experiencing the same problems again. The only game I can play without any issues is counter strike 2. I dont know what the issue is. I also run a ryzen 5 3600.

steam won't let me install ARK

19. Mai 2025 - 05:31

steam won't let me install ark I was trying to install ARK on kubuntu, and when it downloads, it shows that it weighs 0 mb and downloads immediately, then when I press “play” it says “game executable is missing”, I have 250gb of available space so I don't think it's storage, although it won't let me select which dlcs to use.
