Need help
Hi. I'm a noob when it comes to Linux gaming (and Linux in general). Checked out ProtonDB and saw a few games I wanted to play, they where compatible with Linux and wanted to try myself. I dowloaded the lastet version of Mint and tried to play Pathfinder: WotR, but -when I try to open it- a window pops up and shows me this:
Can anyone help me?

Sub-optimal performance on Linux
I tried Linux about a week ago on my laptop. I heard games run the same or sometimes even better than on Windows but that was not what I experienced. All of my games ran much worse than on Windows. I was using gamemode, limited my fps to 60, but it was still stuttering for me. It stutters sometimes on windows too, but not this much. This is the main thing I went back to windows from linux.
My specs:
Ryzen 5 3500U
8 gb ram (i can only use 6 gb because of the Vega 8 in my CPU)
dedicated gpu: Nvidia MX230
I tried using the following distros: Linux Mint (Mate, XFCE)
Nobara

Help installing dxvk on Linux Mint
Hello everyone, first time posting here I think so I hope this is well-crafted enoug as per rule 2 hahah. Okay, so, I've been trying to install dxvk on my computer, afaik i already have versions of it installed thanks to lutris and proton but im making my own wine prefix for Star Wars Battlefront 2 (the new one) and it seems like it's better to have a fresh install of dxvk in my wine directory but every time i try i get this error when trying to run the set-up script from dxvk-master:
"bash: ./setup_dxvk.sh: No such file or directory"
And it is right because when i check the folder I see only build.64 when to my knowledge there should be 64 and 32bit builds both and the missing setup script.
Additional Info:

8bitdo Ultimate - Fedora 40 Workstation - does it work?
Hi all,
Could only find older threads on the subReddit about the controller, and it was a bit patchy a year ago by the sounds.
Has anyone had luck running this controller on Fedora?
Their official list says they support Raspberry pi, which would run an older kernal from Debian, so id hope it works with a newer kernel, but I wouldn't want to assume!

Linux Mint not connecting to any form of Internet (Ethernet, usb tether) after installing Nvidia 555
So I recently installed Nvidia driver 555(I guess I shouldn't have) and my assumption is when it was rebuilding the kernel it broke something? Sorry still very new to Linux.
What I've tried so far, boot repair from a live USB, tried flushing DNS, tried forcing DNS to openDNS, tried converting to driver 535 but when I check terminal it still shows 555 active. , tried switching to a separate kernel .
Tried a bunch of different guides people have but they are very old and seem to be out of date
I have access to Internet when I use a live USB
If need any other information let me know, not sure what I need to provide for assistance.
System specs:
Linux Mint 21.3 Cinnamon

Kernel 5.15.0-112-generic
CPU AMD Ryzen 7 2700 Eight-Core Processor x 8

How do I do a multi CD game install with Proton?
I’ve been trying to use Proton to run Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004, which is a 4 CD install. The issue is that when running the installer with Proton, it doesn’t properly give up access to the CD-ROM drive between disks, so it will finish installing from CD1, then tell me to insert CD2, but attempting to eject CD1 just gives me resource busy errors.
Canceling the install will finally free up CD-ROM access and I can eject the disk, but you can imagine why I can’t use that.

What is the best reshade version for New Vegas?
I used to play on windows and used whatever was the most recent and it was fine.
But now that I'm on linux, (I followed Viva New Vegas and the game is quite stable without reshade.) I'd have to find a version that doesn't stutter or crash. I couldn't use 4.91 (mostly because WINE wouldn't run it) So I went with 5.0+ versions.
However I still crash when loading or saving. (I get different results every time) Help a little?
Proton 9.0 Linux-x86_64 NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 144hz Monitor Reshade version i was using a while ago: 5.02, before that was 5.80 my load order: https://pastebin.com/tuF4tN6w

If steam was a physical object. I would piss on it!
I hate the new steam UI. It breaks everything for non-ubuntu users. I use AlmaLinux and steam sometimes crashes the entire computer and kicks me back into the login screen!

Is it possible to combine 2 monitors into 1?
Hello Guys!
I've been wondering if it would be possible to "combine" two monitors into 1 so that it gets recognized as an ultra wide. The goal here is being able to play It Takes Two or Baldurs Gate 3 with my gf so each one has a monitor instead of sharing the same one.
Please let me know if you guys have figured out something!
Thanks :D

Heroic won’t launch games on my steam deck
Hey guys, I'm having trouble getting heroic to launch my epic games-specifically "Weird West". It says I needed a program called "Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2015", and I downloaded it from the Microsoft website and put it in the game file as I show in the video (it's named "vo_redist.x64.exe" for some reason in files). I thought doing that would fix the game, but it doesn't... Could someone help please? I'm not very good with all this tech stuff so help would be great... Thanks!
