I’ve been having an issue with force feedback on my Logitech g920. The video demonstrates when I let go of my wheel while said issue happens. When driving, my wheel will lock to one side which means I have to force it the other way to stay in a straight line. For example, on a straight, if I move my wheel ever so slightly left, it will snap left, same for the right. When cornering, it also snaps to the direction of the corner, which is not how it should be.

After inevitably crashing after letting go, it stays locked with maximum force in the direction in which I let go, until I straighten it up again, and all force stops as I accelerate. The issue is consistent, and is happening when I play most driving games.

This issue has stayed over multiple distros (arch, mint, pop) and affects multiple driving games such as BeamNG, Forza Horizon 5, ETS2, etc, the only exception being Assetto Corsa with content manager, for some reason. This issue has only started since switching to Linux, and I haven’t had this on Windows.

Currently I am using Debian 13 (trixie) and I am hoping somebody on here can help me out! Thanks.

On option 4 it plays sounds from my monitor (i don't want it)

On option 3 it plays sounds from the headset that i want to play from, but sound in whole system doesn't work

Option 3 works only if some aplications already don't use sound

In launcher developer console there are messages like:

Why it happens and is there any way to fix it?

Does anyone know how I can get the driver details like release version, driver date, driver version, on linux for amd? Is there anything in cmd i can write to get it?

I didn't see it mentioned in the subreddit, and yet for me it's kind of a food-for-thought tangent.

The direction that Android is taking will definitely affect the wider push towards attestation, trusted platforms, etc.

If so, then no more Linux phones that are useful for any connectivity, and maybe in long term loss of Linux as a gaming platform, too, due to resilience of the platform towards corporate ownership.

We're losing the war for digital freedom, and we're losing it hard.

I recently fully configured my Linux gaming setup and it's working better than I expected. For example, RetroArch with the paraLLEl core runs like a dream on my RX 580 (something I had trouble with on Windows).

However, the one thing I really miss is AMD's Virtual Super Resolution (VSR). I made a Gamescope script to use with the Heroic Games Launcher to downsample from 4K to 1080p. I can confirm it's working by checking the resolution in MangoHud, but the results aren't as great as they were on Windows. I can still see a lot of jagged edges in the same games that looked perfect when using VSR.

Am I missing a specific Gamescope flag, or is there a better filter/scaler to use for downsampling to get a smoother, less aliased image?

Here is the script I'm using, which is launched from Heroic's "Wrapper command" field:

#!/bin/bash

# --- CONFIGURATION ---

# My monitor's native resolution

OUTPUT_W=1920 OUTPUT_H=1080

# FSR sharpness, from 0 (max) to 20 (min)

SHARPNESS=2

# --- SCRIPT LOGIC ---

MODE="$1"

shift

GAME_COMMAND=("$@")

GAME_EXECUTABLE="${GAME_COMMAND[-1]}"

GAME_DIR=$(dirname "$GAME_EXECUTABLE")

cd "$GAME_DIR"

GAMESCOPE_ARGS=""

case "$MODE" in

4k) # 4K (3840x2160) with FSR GAMESCOPE_ARGS="-w 3840 -h 2160 -W $OUTPUT_W -H $OUTPUT_H -f -F fsr --sharpness $SHARPNESS" ;;

2k) # 2K (2560x1440) with FSR GAMESCOPE_ARGS="-w 2560 -h 1440 -W $OUTPUT_W -H $OUTPUT_H -f -F fsr --sharpness $SHARPNESS" ;;

integer) # 4K (3840x2160) with integer scaling (pixel-perfect) GAMESCOPE_ARGS="-w 3840 -h 2160 -W $OUTPUT_W -H $OUTPUT_H -f -S integer" ;; *)

# If no valid mode is given, run the game normally

exec "${GAME_COMMAND[@]}"

exit 0 ;;

esac

# Execute Gamescope gamescope $GAMESCOPE_ARGS -- "${GAME_COMMAND[@]}"

Thanks!

Hey guys!

Like the title says : does the webbdriver work on Linux? i tried to search but could not find an answer.

Also I think on reddit and others people say you should always use one Version of Proton the same version everytime for example Proton GE 10.12 or others.

But use one Version only.

Because people say if Proton version changes everytime Denuvo might detect you because of file change or I thought it was ban or unplayable game?

I will play on the 29th with people that love to play and speak german you are welcomed:

so i tried to use linux mint cinnamon 22.1 with it even with steam proton experimental, but my game lags (its a 2d game) that runs soo much better at my old windows, i also tried to nouveau drivers but it keep crashing my system. i also tried the ppa method but no luck. any recommendations of a linux distro that still supports my graphics card? my pc: Intel core i5-7400 Nvidia GTX 550 TI 8GB RAM DUAL CHANNEL

this is how the menu screen looks like im using GE-Proton10-13

im wondering if this will work or not on linux https://www.walmart.com/ip/TP-Link-AX1750-Nano-Wi-Fi-6-Dual-Band-Wireless-USB-Adapter-Travel-Friendly-Compact-Design-Super-Fast-Speed-Buffer-Free-Streaming-Lag-Free-Gaming-Arch/5533840004?fulfillmentIntent=Delivery&filters=%5B%7B%22intent%22%3A%22fulfillmentIntent%22%2C%22values%22%3A%5B%22Delivery%22%5D%7D%5D&classType=REGULAR&from=/search

firstly, with the wheel itself. In all games ive tried so far the pedals are messed up. The clutch acts as the gas pedal and the other 2 pedals dont do anything at all. When checking in oversteer software everything seems to work completely fine but once in game the controls arent right.

Secondly, after hours of trying i finally got content manager for assetto corsa to work for me, it launches right into the CM launcher. However none of the preview images load, and when i actually try to launch into a race it gives me an error "file not found". I assume this is about giving CM the correct directory to the assetto corsa files? I gave it the directory you go to when you click "browse local files" on steam but i suppose that wouldnt work because its a linux directory and CM expects a windows one? I know people have gotten content manager to work on linux but i guess i did something wrong?

Any help would be appreciated, thank you

It works on proton 4.10 and like 5.x something but both of those have texture and sound glitches, any other proton version simply doesn't launch. Steam says "launching" and then it just stops. I also downloaded the Isaac cracked version to see if it was a steam issue or not, which also had similar glitches but worked when using steam linux runtime 3.0. The problem is the actual game doesn't seem to support that(Steam linux runtime 3.0) so if anyone knows how to force it or another fix I'd appreciate it.

Hey guys!

I don't know if it's a Linux issue, but here we go:

I'm having a really annoying problem on Minecraft and wanted some help. We have a survival world that my older brother has been hosting since June. Before, we used Hamachi to connect to the same network, but it started to get laggy so we switched to Tailscale. Everything was working fine until yesterday.

We decided to build something in the Nether. Here's the thing: in the Nether, everything works perfectly for me, zero issues. But whenever I go back to the overworld, the game gets super laggy. I can't click buttons, eat, or attack... and after a while, I just get disconnected. I'll send some screenshots of the error and what the screen looks like.

What puzzles me is that the Nether runs smoothly, and my younger brother, who lives in the same city as the host (my older brother), can play normally with no lag, both in the overworld and the Nether. The problem is only with me, since I'm in a different city.

Has anyone been through this? Any solutions? Thanks!

So I'm playing PC Building Simulator and my frames are just fine, but overtime it just decreases my fps. My temp is a little hot than before but it's not too hot to the point it's gonna fry my PC and I just had this problem now. Im using Heroic Launcher and I have a Geforce MX350 with an Intel 1135G7.

EDIT : well I'm a bit dumb because I didn't find the option in the settings. thanks.

I've installed Fedora on my desktop yesterday because I'm planning to going back to Linux.

Installed steam (using dnf for install, flathub gave me an unlaunchable version of steam), then counter strike 2 to do a test run. it processed shaders yesterday. Why is it doing it again today, and more on that, taking a huge time (been already a good 5mn) to do it and making my cpu go toast ?

What is even the purpose of the processing of the shaders ? Can't it be done just one time and maybe at another times when the game is getting updated ?

Is there a way to skip this and have the game running without having to wait an enormous time?

has anyone tried this launcher from this repo https://github.com/ZzEdovec/onlinefix-linux ? is it safe to use? does it work ?
