Doom: Dark Ages actual Linux Performance

15 May 2025 - 3:08pm

To those who’ve been able to play Doom (I know there are other issues, that’s not what I’m asking), how is the performance so far? Have you compared it to windows? Not sure if it’s a game that’ll run as well as Windows due to forced RT so was curious what you all have reported.

Assetto Corsa auf Linux mit Ryzen-Notebook

15 May 2025 - 3:05pm

Hallo,

ich habe Assetto Corsa schon auf meinem Haupt-Linux-Rechner laufen, udn es macht richtig Spaß.

Ich habe es da installiert, mit Proton 5.10 gestartet, danach mit Proton-GE,e s hat eine ganze Zeit gedauert, und nun läuft es. Der Rechner ist ein Ryzen 5300 32GB RAM, NVidia 1050-TI.

Nun habe ich ein recht neues Notebook, AMD Ryzen 5825U, 15" Full-HD, 32GB RAM, Graphik auf Ryzen.

Es ist installiert, der erste Run mit Proton 5.10 ist durchgelaufen. Der Run mit Proton-GE läuft ohne Unterlass und endet nie, es wird nichts grafisches angezeigt.

Hat jemand Tipps, wie man AC hier zum Laufen animieren kann?

Danke für Eure Tipps!

VRR flicker on Bazzite

15 May 2025 - 2:31pm

Hello dear community, I have an very unpleasant experience with some games. For example GTA5 enchanced is locked to 120 fps it does not drop 0.1 lows are in 117 and its still gives me issues on my monitor. Refresh rate fluctuates from 70 to 130 more or less. It flashes so hard I think it can cause an epilepsy attack. Tried with fullscreen and borderless but nothing seem to help. I have not had this issue on windows 11 (but I had a lot more severe performance issues) My card is 7900xtx and my monitor is 165hz with freesync premium distribution is Bazzite 42. Anything helps really.

Minecraft with shaders lags like crazy if I dont enable vsync

15 May 2025 - 2:27pm

Im having a very strange issue. When i play minecraft with shaders on, if vsync is disabled, it is literally unplayable, even if f3 displays 60+ fps. Even the cursor and menu lags; If i enable vsync, the lagging stops but this time a strange synchonization behaviour appears and the camera moves back and forth, giving a online-lag feel. Do you have any idea on what could be causing this?

im on Fedora 42 workstation

Specs

cpu: Intel i7-10750H
mem: 16gb ddr4 3200mhz
gpu: rtx 2060 (mobile) 575.51.02
monitor: samsung odyssey g8 34'' oled

Controller or Keyboard+Mouse

15 May 2025 - 2:00pm

Yesterday I started Doom: The Dark Ages using Keyboard+Mouse because it's a FPS and felt kinda right. But something feels off. So i changed to controller and it was better, more comfortable. What do you think? Always play on keyboard? Some games in mouse and keyboard?

Horipad for steam is sending mixed inputs!?

15 May 2025 - 10:10am

No matter how many times i choose new mouse and keyboard template on steam for "horipad for steam" buttons send both inputs xinput and keyboard, what should i do? This never happened on cachyos? Did i failed udev rules but the gyro is working now or its something else? I really need to fix this because it makes many games unplayable. On internet you have udev rules for arch based distros/steam deck but there are non for debian based ones like PikaOs, so i created those myself but i am not sure if this is correct, gyro is working now but maybe there is a mistake so its working partially and causing double input issues i have?Help..

AMD Clock Speeds

15 May 2025 - 10:04am

mangohud while in game

mangohud at main menu

so i've noticed that my system never reaches it's set clock speed, in fact it actually seems to be actively avoiding reaching it.
setting my clock speed to a max of 2609 [the default for my card] gives me around 1750-2200 [jumping around erratically]
if I instead set the max to 1700 [arbitrary number] it begins jumping from 1550-1650
setting it to 2800 [the max i'm allowed] puts me at 1830-2300
i'm doing these through CoreCtrl, my system is a Radeon 6700XT and a Ryzen 9 3950X
I am using the Linux-Zen kernel and the game i've done the majority of testing on is Resident Evil 4 Remake with the launch options [mangohud gamemoderun %command% /WineDetectionEnabled:False]; the game is using [GE-Proton9-27]
i've tried increasing the power limit to the max it allows [it defaults at 186W and can max to 213W, although neither option ever passes 150W] {oddly enough it will actually reach 213W on the main menu and mangohud will display that it is power throttling}
i've also ran my fans at a constant 100% speed to assure that temps are remaining low during testing this so it's not thermal throttling

is there a way to use themes on steam big picture without using decky?

15 May 2025 - 9:44am

I have tried installing decky loader, but the thing is that I think is not compatible with my distro since it use runit and not systemd (it gives me some errors related to systemctl). is there a way to change the theme without using decky loader? I know I can change the box arts. I want to use the hero theme

Anti-Cheat sucks

15 May 2025 - 9:04am

I genuinely hate the fact I'm forced to use Windows for things like mods, and Games that use Anti-Cheat

It's stupid is what it is. You know what's even funnier to me? Fortnite and GTA Online both run on my PS5 (Which runs an OS based off FreeBSD) But refuse to work on Linux

Despite FreeBSD and Linux both having Unix like systems. (In PS5's case, it is custom so that's why it works)

But Linux Gaming will never overtake windows until Anti-Cheat either works, or is banned entirely.

Unusable static and artifacting display

15 May 2025 - 8:28am

I'm at my wit's end trying to get my NVIDIA RTX 3090 Ti to work correctly with my LG Ultragear+ which is a 4K 240Hz display, but it can be swapped to 1080 480hz. I am on a fresh EndeavourOS (KDE Plasma) installation.

The Problem:

No matter what I try, as soon as the system boots into the graphical environment (or tries to), the display turns into "TV static" and is completely unusable. This happens in both Wayland and X11 Plasma sessions.

System Details:

CPU: Ryzen 9 7950X3D

OS: EndeavourOS (latest, fresh install). ive installed it using the online installer off a usb stick so everything is up to date right off the bat.

GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 Ti

NVIDIA Driver Version: 570.144

Bootloader: systemd-boot

Display: 4K @ 240Hz (connected via HDMI)

(Possibly relevant): amdgpu kernel modules are also loaded, I have both Monitors is connected to the 3090 Ti. the second one is a 1440p 165 hz with no reported issues.

Troubleshooting Steps Taken So Far:

Installed nvidia, nvidia-utils, nvidia-settings packages via pacman.

Blacklisted nouveau driver using a .conf file in /etc/modprobe.d/.

Added nvidia_drm.modeset=1 to the options line in my systemd-boot entry file.

Regenerated initramfs using sudo dracut-rebuild.

Tested both Wayland and X11 KDE Plasma sessions – the "TV static" issue is identical in both.

lsmod | grep nvidia shows all NVIDIA modules (nvidia, nvidia_drm, nvidia_modeset, nvidia_uvm) are loaded.

nvidia-smi works perfectly, correctly identifies the GPU, shows "Disp.A : On", and lists processes like Xorg, kwin_wayland, Xwayland, and plasmashell using the GPU.

journalctl -b -p err -g nvidia --no-pager shows no NVIDIA-related kernel errors.

I genuinely dont know what to do. ive tried everything. tried using pacman -S nvidia... or nvidia-inst

or nvidia-open. Tried downgrading by one driver version. I simply dont understand.

Edit, i know the panel, GPU and cables are all good. These all worked at their intended resolution on Windows 11.

Here is a video of the issue
