I was about to spend some big money on an admittedly fancy 2.4Ghz dongle controller, when I decided to throw a hail mary and see if there were other bluetooth managers out there. Yep. And it just works and I don't have to keep reconnecting all my stuff each time I turn it off. Figured I'd pass it along. Remember you matter, and have an AMAZING day!

Hi, I am trying to get Microsoft Flight Simulator to run in Linux, but so far I had not much success despite it being Gold on ProtonDB. I have a Ryzen 7 9800X3D, Nvidia 5080 with Version 575-Drivers. Tried it with Linux Mint and CachyOS, both got the same Problem. It loads initially, I can log in to my Microsoft-Account. After that you can see the loading bar move a bit and then it just stops. Background-Pictures continue to cycle for another 2 minutes or so, then Linux asks, if you want to wait or force the game to quit. Tried Proton 9.0-4, lates Proton GE, and on CachyOS the current native Proton, same Behavior. Anyone got any Idea?

I have a PC that I share with my brother and a laptop for myself. The specs are rx 6600xt + r5 5600x for the PC, and i5 12th gen + mx 450 (not sure of the laptop's gpu). The main question is this: Would linux make my laptop just a bit capable of handling games? I mainly play valorant, lol & minecraft. I read before that riot's anticheat doesn't work on linux, and I have no problem with droping val & lol. I also play the witcher 3 sometimes and sekiro too.

Hello.

Just installed Fedora 42 with Gnome and then Sunshine.

When I connect to Sunshine using Moonlight on my Shield TV, the games are not scaling properly.

Any hints as to what I can do to fix this?

My specs are:

AMD 5600X

Pulse 7900 XTX

Dell 27" 4K@60hz monitor.

2019 Shield TV connected to a LG C9 via Ethernet (1GB)

Xbox One controller, hardwired to the Shield.

Fedora 42 Workstation with Gnome.

Latest Sunshine and Moonlight apps.

Thanks in advance.

Guys, I've been using dual boot for some good years now. Linux was mainly used for work and Windows for gaming.

Yesterday, I was doing nothing, and I decided to give Wine a try (I've never used it before tbh). It's pretty straightforward to use, but upon making a quick performance test on a Wine CinebenchR23, it delivered like ~21000 points, while I get some ~34000 on Windows.

Is this performance drop normal??

I've had this issue for a while now and its pretty annoying, whenever i join in the main game its all alright, but when i join pro servers of the same game the chat just stops working, i cant see the bubbles of people above their head altough if the chat is "closed", altough there is no difference, you can see numbers of messages go up, untill 99, and then it stops

Hey everyone,

I recently switched to CachyOS and wanted to share my experience so far. My specs are: Ryzen 9 9950X3D + RTX 4090, paired with an HDR G-SYNC–enabled monitor. Overall, I’m really happy with the results, but I’m running into some issues with gaming stability.

My main question is whether there’s anything I can do right now, or if I basically just need to wait for better NVIDIA driver support.

I tried Cyberpunk 2077 and Silent Hill 2, but I couldn’t get HDR to work in either game. HDR is enabled under “Display Configuration,” but it doesn’t seem to apply. I’m running the games through Steam with “Force GE-Proton10-12”.

FPS is decent (a noticeable hit compared to Windows, but about what I expected). The issue is smoothness—it feels like something is off with G-SYNC / V-Sync / VRR. I couldn’t find the right options in the NVIDIA control panel on Linux. It’s like the games run, but without proper frame pacing.

I’ve attached screenshots of my current settings. If something looks misconfigured, or if there are tweaks I can try to improve this, I’d really appreciate the help.

Thanks a lot!

Recently tried running Black Ops 3 with the CleanOps patch via steamtinkerlaunch.

The problem I have now is that I can "open" the patch UI but I can't really do anything in it as I can't see it on screen. Does anyone really know a fix for this?

Window session is XWayland and Proton Version is GE Proton 10-10

I have a optiplex 9020 micro pc and was wondering if I need to change the proton version or another setting to get games to run.

I did all the install packages but it says this after doing everything

I've been playing all of Rockstar Games titles through their launcher flawlessly for over two years. Now it suddenly fails to load and shows this error:

https://preview.redd.it/xy8a6oeccljf1.png?width=987&format=png&auto=webp&s=d2d451c965b497dc8caaff2c29e508395c193417

Sometimes it makes it to the login prompt but then also fails randomly:

Offline Mode also doesn't work because the DRM forces me to log in to verify my purchase.

I have also attached a log of me launching the app, it failing, me clicking retry, it failing again and then me clicking close: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1jaeoqJ767Kf2VMBz-zH5O7pqDiLuWi7c/view?usp=sharing (Google Drive because the Log is too long)

I have already tried different Proton and GE-Proton versions Experimental, most recent, and GE 10-4 through 10-12 (GE 10-4 was working perfectly only a few weeks ago). I also ran it as a non Steam app and through Lutris. I have also tried installing with a freshly downloaded installer into a freshly created prefix, but it resulted in the same error (in this case a good thing because it should be easily reproducible). If you can't reproduce it, this may be a result of a bit too much of tinkering on my side. Then I'll have a good excuse for distro hopping.

The combo dock/kvm is pretty niche and even worse when you require dual DisplayPort or DisplayPort MST.

Av access has dock/kvm: iDock B10.I asked on their forum if is does support DisplayPort MST.

Are there any other recomendations instead?

This is a Linux+AMD-GPU specific requirement because the HDMI Forum does not allow AMD to make open source drivers that support HDMI 2.1 (https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2024/02/hdmi-forum-to-amd-no-you-cant-make-an-open-source-hdmi-2-1-driver/)

How to launch SSEEdit though Mod Organizer 2 and have SSEEdit run in Windows xp.

As the title suggests, I would like to have an unfocussed window listen to keystrokes, so that if I press certain hotkeys, the unfocussed window responds. As I understand this has become more difficult under Wayland, but besides that, I am having trouble finding actionable info on the topic.

I have a pretty basic install of Ubuntu 24.04, using GNOME. The main programme I want to set this up for (VNyan) is ran through Proton, since it's Windows software, and consequently I don't expect portals to work. The main results I can find when trying to look for this are keyboard shortcuts and ydotool, but since I am not trying to run commands or do things programmatically, these also don't seem particularly helpful.

I believe Hyprland binds may be able what I want to do, but before trying to install that, I was wondering if anyone has any ideas that could work on my setup as is. Thanks for any help!

Game has been working flawlessly out of the box since I switched to linux. but 3 days ago I finally got Phantom LIberty, and the game started freezing, seemingly at random, between 2 minutes and an hour into gameplay. Video freezes and audio continues to play (although there is no 'new audio'. If there is dialogue, the current sentence ends and then its just the same background music)

I have tried multiple versions of proton, including experimental, GE, and Hotfix.

Anyone have ideas?
