Just tried Dragon Age: Veilguard that just got released and it won't start. It errors out with the game saying "detected nvidia geforce drivers version 550.99. The required driver version is 560.70 or later".

I'm not even running "550.99" on Linux, I'm running 550.127.05. And 560.70 is a Windows nvidia driver version, not a Linux one. Is there an environment variable or anything to fake a specific driver version, so that the game shuts up about it?

Hey, I'm looking for a Dummy Plug, to stream in 4k HDR from my PC(bazzite) to my phone using moonlight. Does something like this exist or even work with Linux? I'd appreciate your input ❤️

Hi, I just upgraded my PC with an Nvidia 4070 and a new cooler (not yet arrived) but during my gaming sessions the PSU fan increases in speed and makes a strange noise. Also, the CPU temperature is too high (about 90/100 °C) but its utilization is around 10/15 %. The question is, before I worry, should I wait for the new cooler?

Current configuration:

- CPU: Ryzen 5 2600x

- GPU: Nvidia 4070

- Cooler: AMD stock cooler + 1 fan

- Memory: 1T nvme

- PSU: Coolermaster 600W

- Distro: Pop_os

Thanks for your attention.

Not sure if it will work for everyone, but I am one of the people with the D3D fatal error and with the new hotfix it actually works fine. The commit in question : https://github.com/HansKristian-Work/vkd3d-proton/commit/dd7ad6d2545cb79a27f907d8512c4f1c1520c24f

To use it, go to your steam library, look for proton experimental > properties > betas > bleeding edge

Then force compatibility on MH Wilds to use proton experimental, launches just fine for me now, currently compiling shaders.

I've not seen this in months of using Apex on Ubuntu but today, it happens every time I open the game. Has anyone got any ideas why it might be and how to fix it?

I've verified game files and doesn't seem to make any difference..

Many thanks in advance!

When I run the .exe using wine the screen goes black then crashes due to "ACCESS_VIOLATION". Is there any workaround?

Currently using Ubuntu 24.0 and wine 9.0.

Edit: I'm using a pre-installed version of this game.

Edit 2: I added it as a non steam game and launched it using proton!

Hello! Recently had to re-install my OS for reasons, decided to give Bazzite a try. Mostly no complaints, but my 8BitDo Ultimate C Wired controller isn’t recognized by the OS at all in either available input mode, and searching for answers I haven’t found anything. I’ve attached a fetch so y’all can see what hardware I’m working with. I’d appreciate any advice. The controller worked with no issues on my last distro (Nobara).

So recently I've been playing No Man's Sky and the in game chat system just uses their unknown character equivalent when other people type in chat. How would I go about installing the correct font and how would I add it to what I presume is a wine instance through Steam's proton layer?

I have a PB Tails Crush controller. It is the brand new variant with TMR joysticks. It works out the box on Linux and is recognized as an xinput Xbox 360 controller, but for some reason its polling rate wired is only 250hz, while on my Windows installation it gets 1000hz. All other 1000hz controllers work at 1000hz for me on Linux, the PB Tails Crush is the only one I've seen to have this issue. Steam/Steam Input makes no difference. (I test the polling rate using JohnnyPunch's Joystick Tester.)

Any ideas for what could be throttling my controller's polling rate?

Eh visto que hay gente que dice no poder jugar Fornite en Linux, actualmente migre mi laptop a Meat (finamos) y tengo la duda sobre cómo instalarlo al igual que Counter Strike, Valorant o GTA V, eh buscado en otros foros pero no encuentro solución.

Había visto que uno de ella era usar el sistema GerforceNow y Xbox Cloud pero este último hace que se vea del carajo.

Hay manera o deberá tener 2 sistemas este equipo para poder jugarlo

on kron4ek 9.20 staging tkg amd64, with the registry enabling wayland and the environmental variable `DISPLAY` already set to blank, the window is still blurry (just like in xwayland) on 125% fractional scaling.

when i adjust dpi to 120, the window got even smaller than it under 96, and mouse point got its position biased.

set dpi to 96 in winecfg

hello, not a very important post but I thought i'd share these finds of OS, libre games and the sort :). thought this would fit in this sub, apologies if not!

So, let me make this explanation quick:

I am using KDE Plasma 6, I have a GTX 1660 Super. I enabled this setting here to Automatic:

(it was on automatic before)

VRR, at least for me has a lot of really tedious black screen issues in many different games and applications, it causes the entire screen to black out and until I exit a said program that for some reason causes those issues, it will remain as a black screen and will not show any output. This is of course, until I disable the option.

I don't know if it's because my monitor is a Freesync monitor, and not a G-Sync certified one, but either way, I'd like to know if others experienced this kind of thing and/or have found solutions to the problem itself.
