I've been working on a sort of alternative to Acer NitroSense for my laptop using nbfc-linux. it's not really any more useful compared to existing tools but it serves my specific niche. Check it out if you'd like. Feedback appreciated!

Hello. I installed my favorite strategy titles "Act of War Direct Action" & "Act of War High Treason" on my Linux Mint system via Steam but I can't managed to run them properly. I tried to run under proton 4,5,6,7,8,9 and experimental and also GE-Proton 7-41, 7-55 & 8-26 but they don't work properly. Is there anybody out there to managed to run these games on Linux? Any help will be appreciated. Thanks

I just found out about this today, but EA has pulled support for Apex Legends on Linux because they think it'll cut cheaters out of the game 💀💀💀

I know I'm a little late to the party, so I'm sure this matter has already been discussed to death by everyone else, but Apex and Minecraft are literally the only two games I have installed and played every once in a while, and it looks like my library just got cut in half, so I need something else to play. I thought about checking out Counter Strike 2, but apparently that game turned out to be a flop, so I'm just gonna leave that as a "maybe" for now.

As you can see, I prefer (preferred?) to have a peaceful building game and an exciting shooter game, so do we have anything that could fill in for Apex, or what else are you guys playing? I heard the Halo Master Chief Collection works pretty good for us, but is that just for the single player campaigns, or does that include multi-player as well?

Can anyone point me to any benchmarks of I/O schedulers for gaming that compare load times, frame times, etc of kyber, BFQ, noop, etc?

Hello there! Just a real quick and simple question: On windows, I can open the NVCP and force enable ultra under "low latency". This is a life saver in games like Terraria where the mouse feels like it's being dragged through mud without the setting. But, the game does not natively support the setting, and thus the need for the control panel. Does Reflex/Ultra Low Latency exist inside of Linux? And, if so, is there a way to hard force it for games that can benefit but don't have the setting in a menu somewhere?

It is the only thing keeping me from going full Linux. VRR and Gsync are already supported, I know that, so if this one settings works out...

I ran the command "sudo apt install mangohud" on my Ubuntu 24.10 system, but it does not work correctly. I'd like to completely uninstall it so I can try another method of installing it. Any help?

Hello I was born disabled and I’m looking into getting an Xbox adaptive controller to play some games I’ve never been able to play.

I read that Microsoft were working on getting support for the XAC into the kernel a few years ago however I’ve not seen whether or not this was completed and the only thing more recent that I have seen is a reference to a GitHub repository.

Does anyone have any more information or some experience with it working?

what are ur settings? Is the game running well?

Bonjour,

Cela fait une journée entière que j'essaie de faire marcher Jedi Fallen Order sur mon système linuxmint. Je n'y arrive pas. J'ai essayé toutes les versions de Proton qui se trouve dans steam, j'ai essayé aussi avec Proton GE 9 grâce à Proton Up-Qt. Et toujours rien, le jeux ne se lance pas. Du moins il se lance, steam affiche pendant quelques secondes que le jeu est lancé, et puis plus rien. J'ai lancé aussi le jeu depuis le menu mint en faisant click droit "Lancer avec la carte graphique dédiée", mais même résultat.

J'ai une carte graphique RTX 4050 qui semble être à jour avec les drivers installés. Je ne sais plus quoi faire...

Hello, I've been playing factorio recently and its fine when I'm playing without mods but as soon as I download any mod and load the game it crashes within ~5 minutes. Anyone know whats going on/ how to fix it?

Is it feasible for steam to add all games that use a certain launcher i.e, EA or Ubisoft, to implement a way for those games to use the same prefix? Say when you launch in steam and don't specify a specific proton to use, they could all be clumped into the same prefix?

Hi,

I recently bought RE7 on steam and started playing the game, after like 40 ish minutes when I am in the main house the framerate of the game goes down from 60FPS (capped) to around 30, the game will also run at half the speed (I move slower, the dialog glitches out) making the game basically unplayable. I restarted the game multiple times (also my PC) and now it seems to be happening after 5 minutes regarding of where I am in the game.

I let the shader cache complete.

I tried the following:

- Uncapped frame rate

- Setting the framerate to 30

- Experimental version of proton, latest version and older versions and the latest version of proton GE.

- Changing the graphics settings to the lowest.

Nothing has worked so far. The game should be more than playable on my hardware (RTX 3060, I7 11th gen, 16GB RAM). I'm running the latest version of ZorinOS (17.2) which is ubuntu 22.04.5 LTS (Jammy Jellyfish)

I also checked both proton DB and google to see if people have the same issues but nobody seem to have the same issue as me. The game has a gold rating and most people seem to be able to play with no issues.

Anyone has any ideas? Since the game is kinda unplayable right now for me.
