Deadlock issues
Hi guys,
I was wondering if anyone knows how to solve this issue. I had this issue where I would disconnect randomly from games due to jitter. I wasn't as bad before but after the Apollo update it got worse. This is from a bot game but in actual matches it happens much more frequently. I tried reinstalling the game, switching proton versions (including GE) and using ethotool to disable eee (as was said in a forum post that I don't currently have the link to). I don't have any issues with any other games (Marvel Rivals and Overwatch both ran flawlessly) and I don't have any connection issues as I am connected via Ethernet. I really do like this game a lot but it's hard to figure out how to play the game with stuff like this happening all the time.
The game also sometime crashes but that seems like a much more rare issue.
Specs of my computer:
Distro: Arch (6.19.6-arch1-1)
CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 7950X (32)
GPU: GeForce RTX 3090 Ti
RAM: 128 GB ddr5
PROTON: GE_Proton10_32-1

Steam Library Manager - The Depressurizer alternative for Linux, because I refused to boot Windows to organize 3,000 games
I have over 3k Steam entries (2.5k real games).
First I opened the Storepage of every single new Game > read the Tags > Added every Tag (first 10 mostly) to the Game to Categorize it! (10 times, or more, "Add to" for every single Game! Fun isn't it?)
Then I found = Depressurizer which was the only tool that made this bearable - but it's Windows-only, won't run under Wine, won't run under Bottles, won't run under anything I threw at it.
I'm DONE with Windows so I told myself: Before I start Windows just to sort my game library , it's better to make one for the Linux Community! Directly on Linux, for Linux, and not a Windows Port or something like that!
So I built SLM with PyCharm on CachyOS. From scratch.
**GitHub:** SteamLibraryManager
**What it does (just the highlights - check the GitHub README for the full feature list):**
- **Smart Collections with full Boolean logic** (AND/OR/NOT + nested groups) - Steam's dynamic collections have been AND-only since 2018. That's not a limitation, that's an insult. We fixed it.
- **Auto-categorize by 17 rule types:** Tags, Genres, ProtonDB rating, Steam Deck status, HowLongToBeat, Achievements, PEGI, and more
- **Import all your non-Steam games:** Epic, GOG, Amazon, Lutris, Bottles, itch.io, Flatpak, even ROMs with 16 emulator definitions
- **Metadata that survives Steam updates** - no other tool does this. We overlay your edits like a git rebase on top of Steam's data.
- **Built-in auto-updates** for AppImage users - checks GitHub Releases, downloads in background, atomic replace with rollback.
**Steam Deck:** Responsive UI that adapts to 1280x800. AppImage works in Desktop Mode, survives SteamOS updates. No pacman hacks needed. Tested on both LCD and OLED.
MIT licensed. Linux-first. Available as AppImage, AUR, .deb, .rpm, tar.gz. Flatpak pending Flathub review. If it helps you organize your library, a ⭐ on GitHub helps other Linux gamers find it.
It's my first App, please be patient with me 🙃

RTX 4070 Ti Super to AMD RX 7900 XT, worth "downgrading"?
Basically what the title says, Linux gaming primarily, sometimes ComfyUI for some local inpainting but that's it.
Relevant: 2K Ultrawide screen!
Currently have one of my computers with the 4070 Ti Super (16GB), girlfriend says she can undervolt the RX 7900 XT (20GB) so it doesn't use as much power as stock does without much of a performance loss (she's the IT girl not me so I assume that's also fine).
Considering the whole stability and degraded performance from the Nvidea cards I would love to have this community opinion ✨ Thank you all!

Wlan Linux Wifi Usb Adapter for Fedora ( and Mint), plug and play
I’m very close to getting Sonic Heroes with Reloaded II working - can’t load SH mods
For context, I’m running on Bazzite.
I’ve been able to get Sonic Heroes working:
Without mods
Via Reloaded II using a specific Launch Option
This is through using Steam and ProtonTricks.
I’m unable to get the mods such as the SH Essentials Graphics and Widescreen.
Is there something I’m missing?

AC4 stuck at intro and does anyone know how to bypass UbiCon when launching the game?
It's just stuck there after launching it both on as Native and Proton. Also, does anyone know how to bypass the damn Ubi Connect? I really hate that they want me to log in or open the app everytime I want to play a game of theirs like Watch Dogs 2, thought I was safe at Linux but guess I'm not. I guess the only way to be safe from that malware is thru p*r*ting their games.

VAC doesn't work on Proton
I find it quite interesting to know that Valve Anti-Cheat does not work on Proton builds of their games. I appreciate that the native versions exist but... they have some issues, and I wish I could just switch builds and be done with it but in order to join VAC servers I can't.
CS2 likes to leave giant core dumps on exit. Not a crash, a regular exit. I've mitigated it by setting a rule that truncates coredumps, but yeah. L4D2 needs the -vulkan launch option for me. TF2 pretty much just works ootb as does CS Source. But all these make me wonder why I can't just use the Proton build, since often it's more performant than native.

CPU Usage Fluctuates Causing Hitching
I installed Debian 13 stable and was testing some games. All was great until I tried helldivers 2. Randomly it will cause the cpu usage to drop and spike, as shown in the video. How can I fix this? I did not have this issue with Cachyos and it doesn't seem to happen with light weight games
Specs:
cpu: R7 5800x
gpu: rx6800
ram: 64gb ddr4
os: debian 13 trixie (kernel 6.12.73)

Has anyone had success running iRacing or any game that uses easy anti cheat with proton
What's the best way to play the classic Resident Evil trilogy?
I wanted to play these games for the first time, but the official website to download the GOG versions (the only available official ones atm) says they aren't supporting Linux.
Is there a way around this or another way to play these games entirely for a Linux mint PC?
