Ich will zu Linux wechseln, da ich schon zum 2. Mal in Folge ein Windows Update nicht installieren kann. Kann mir jemand eine Distro für Linux Anfänger und zudem Gamer empfehlen? Ich hab ne Nvidia Grafikkarte und spiele hauptsächlich Minecraft, falls das hilfreich ist. Danke schon im Voraus! 😘

Hello guys. I played GTA V a couple of years ago, when I got it for free from Epic. I was still on Windows at the time.

Honestly, I didn't really enjoy that game? I might be one of the 30 people on Earth to feel this way. The story didn't really grip me, and I found the world uninteresting.

However, I am a massive fan of RDR2, which is one of my favourite games of all time, alongside the Witcher 3, Baldur's Gate 2: Shadows of Amn, and Disco Elysium. I have also recently pllayed GTA IV and liked it.

Given this, I feel obliged to give Gta v one last chance?

However, is there even any reliable way to play this game on Linux? I know that the PC release has an antocheat that makes it impossible to launch.

I tried emulating the PS3 version, but it always freezes within the first couple of minutes.

Given this, is this game unplayable on Linux?

Edit I know about Heroic. I use it every day. When I installed GTA V some one year ago it did not work so I assumed it's still the caze

I'm trying to launch Mudrunner on my old laptop running Linux Mint, the specs are in the picture. I think I'm running Proton Experimental but I am not sure. The laptop runs other games fine (only tried MX Bikes). It's old and shitty though so I don't know. I linked the specs and the error message I get, thanks for helping.

Hello, up until today I had been playing Balatro on my Steamdeck and my windows PC. I had no issues with my cloud saves syncing up. Today I installed pop_os and when I try to launch balatro it tells me the cloud saves are up to date but the game has 0 progress like I never played it at all. Does anyone have a fix for this? There are no errors, when I launch a round on the steam deck it works fine and I can even see the desktop side fetch the latest cloud save when I close the game but when I launch it is like I have never played before.

I have toggled on the XXMI option, opened the mod folder, added mods to the mod folder, and disabled "Dynamic Character Resolution" option in-game.

Whenever I press play, a black terminal-like window appears. Other than that, nothing else happens/changes to the game. It runs normally without the mods being loaded in.

I am using Ubuntu, if that's significant to this problem,

The terminal-like window that pop-ups after pressing play but before the game launches

XXMMI option enabled

This window pop-ups when I press the purple \"Open mods folder\" button (found in the previous picture)

The question is going to seem half stupid, but by using wine in pirated games, is there a risk of viruses and breaking the entire installation?

This is the second time I am writing this because my Firefox crashed inexplicably deleting my earlier post. I love Linux but sometimes the penguin seems to just taunt me.

I got Linux rather recently (Exact date; 22/10-25) from a good friend of mine (Nobara: Fedora, Wayland) on my magic box and in general the experience has been fine. Some games needed tinkering to work but in the end they do work. Paradox Interactive Titles however are kind of my thing, I play them daily and many hours, and they keep crashing no matter what.

I go to ProtonDB and follow all the steps; still randomly crashes. If there had been any sign like a monthly update in the game I would understand; but the only thing consistent about the crashes are their inconsistency. I sent my friend the logs he requested and saw nothing bad going on. Game just got mad and decided to turn off.

Am I missing something? When I go to Steam -> EU5/CK3/Whatever Game -> Properties -> Compatibility -> Force the use of specific Steam Play compatibility tool -> Proton Experimental or 9.0-4 or whatever works on ProtonDB... Do I need to reboot my magic box for that to set in? Is that something everyone have taken for granted and just not written anywhere?

On occasion my Steam also reboots itself. That is less of an issue for me, and my friend have helped and the issue persists so I am just gonna toss that up to Fedora and Steam not being happy with each-other.

Note: Relatively recently me and my friend did figure out that not all my RAM was allocated properly. We changed that in the deeper settings and since then all games has run *better* but the infrequently frequent crashes are still here.

Sorry if this was a bit rambly. I have had this issue for 4 weeks and it feels like 4 months since it keeps happening with some games and it seems to happen a lot with the Paradox Interactive titles I play daily.

Good morning, dear free software community, today I need your help! I don't want to go back to Windows under any circumstances, but I would still like a configuration (as cheap as possible) with Linux OS to play Overwatch 2 at a stable 120 fps (I have a monitor with this frame rate). I was wondering if any of you experts could tell me if and how this is possible.

Please note that:

• I already have CrossOver (I don't think there is a way to run it on Linux without CrossOver, but I'm all ears if there is, although I would prefer the ease of CrossOver)
• I already have basic daily experience with Ubuntu and Fedora
• I would like the smallest case possible (I am also willing to spend a little more to miniaturise everything... Not a full tower and not even an RTX 5090... In short... The best compromise to achieve that frame rate in the smallest possible space and without spending a fortune).
• I would like an integrated Bluetooth card (and maybe Wi-Fi, but I also have a LAN connection here if I want it) to play with a Bluetooth mouse and keyboard.

Without CrossOver, I don't know where to start, so I would still need step-by-step help!

I would appreciate a step-by-step guide for the first start-up of Overwatch 2, as I have never installed AMD or Nvidia graphics cards on Linux.

Thank you for everything 😊 🙏

Hey everyone,

I just installed Fedora 43, and overall I’m really happy with it. However, I could use some help ironing out a few issues.

My specs:

• Ryzen 9 9950X3D
• RTX 4090 (I’m aware of the DX12 performance hit on Linux, and that’s fine with me)
• Edifier S2000 speakers (connected via optical to the motherboard)

Audio quality issue

On Windows, my speakers sounded terrible until I increased the audio format to the maximum (I believe it was Studio 192 kHz), which fixed the quality completely.

In Fedora, I read that the default sample rate is 48 kHz, so I copied and edited the PipeWire config like this:

cp /usr/share/pipewire/pipewire.conf ~/.config/pipewire/

Then changed:

default.clock.rate = 96000 (tried 192000 too) default.clock.allowed-rates = [ 44100 48000 88200 96000 192000 ]

After restarting, the sound became horribly distorted with loud crackling, so I reverted back to 48 kHz — which fixed the crackling but brought back the low-quality sound.

Any idea how to improve the audio quality without introducing distortion?

Tried Pro Audio and it makes the speakers go silent.

DualSense Edge controller

When I connect my DualSense Edge via Bluetooth, games recognize it as an Xbox controller, and the button layout is all wrong (Circle triggers X, Triangle triggers Circle, etc.).

When connected via USB, it works, but still shows the Xbox layout.
Do I need to install a specific driver or tweak something to get proper PlayStation button mapping?

Dualsense is connected via bluetooth. Circle would trigger A in this screen.

Layout in Indiana Jones. Dualsense Edge is connected with a usb cable.

Game crash: The Last of Us Part I

I’m running TLOU Part I (Heroic, pirated) with GE-Proton10-25, but it crashes about 30 seconds after launch.
I also tried GE-Proton10-24, same result.

Other games like Alan Wake 2, Indiana Jones, and Silent Hill F run fine.
Is there a known fix or Proton version that works better for TLOU1?

HDR not working in games

HDR is enabled in the Display Configuration, but games don’t detect or enable it.
I’m using the latest Nvidia drivers. Is there an extra step needed to get HDR working in Fedora 43?

If you can think of anything else I could tweak or use to improve gaming performance or overall system responsiveness, please let me know — I’m open to any tips or optimizations for this setup.

Thanks a lot for any help or guidance! Fedora’s been awesome so far — I just want to fine-tune these last few details.

I need help with OpenRGB on Arch linux, I have a problem with OpenRGB. The effects plugin does not detect my AMD Sapphire RX 5700 XT Nitro+, but I can manually set its color. Also, there is a lag when the RAM changes its color. I don't know how to fix it! Any ideas what can be wrong in my case?

Hello, so before anybody asks why I'm asking this, and not just use java edition, I have a group of friends and a few of them play from their phones, otherwise I would probably just play java.

Now considering that my only reason is to play multiplayer, the version is very important. The launcher that I use mcpelauncher, automatically is able to download and play is 1.21.114.1, and the last version, the one that I need to play whit my friends is 1.21.121.1.

I tried to download 1.21.121.1 and after some work, because there were no instructions, I managed install it only to be unplayable, I tried trouble shooting and it told me that certain things were incompatible.

Now I installed the apk from the source the launcher gave me and it should have all the parts. I don't know what to do next honestly, I either have to find another apk but it's very posible that the new apk will be even less compatible, or to change the files myself, and I'm not a programer, I picked up here and there some knowledge about computers and files but that's it

I also post the results of the troubleshoot, maybe one of you had the same problem and can give me the solution or at least explain to me what exactly is wrong. I tried to find answears online but I didn't find anything.

If there is no solution at least for now, hopefully waydroid will solve works better since it would be my last hope

Buongiorno cara community del software libero, oggi vi chiedo un aiuto grande!!! Poiché non voglio assolutamente tornare su Windows in alcun modo ma vorrei comunque una configurazione (il più economica possibile) con S.O. Linux per giocare a Overwatch 2 ad almeno 120 fps stabili (ho un monitor con questo framerate) chiedevo ai più esperti di voi se e come è possibile tutto ciò.

Considerate che: - Dispongo di CrossOver (non mi risulta che ci sia un modo per farlo girare su Linux senza CrossOver ma sono tutto orecchi, se ci fosse, anche se preferirei la facilità di CrossOver) - Ho già avuto esperienza di utilizzo basico quotidiano con Ubuntu e Fedora - Vorrei un case il più piccolo possibile (sono disposto anche a spendere un po’ di più per miniaturizzare tutto… Non una full tower e nemmeno una RTX 5090… Insomma… Il migliore compromesso per arrivare a quel framerate in uno spazio più piccolo possibile e senza spendere una tombola). - Vorrei una scheda bluetooth (e magari wifi, ma volendo qui ho anche un attacco lan) integrata per giocare con mouse e tastiera bluetooth

Senza CrossOver non so dove mettere le mani, quindi mi servirebbe comunque un aiuto passo passo! Grazie di tutto 😊 🙏
