Is there any way to actually have HDR in games on Nvidia and it works without issues?

26 Oct 2024 - 4:55pm

Gamescope is absolutely broken on Bazzite on Nvidia. I tried using Wayland Wine with Proton but games behave erratically (they either don't launch or they launch completely broken). Has anyone achieved having HDR in games on Nvidia effortlessly?

How to Diagnose a Problem of Black Screen Crash on Linux?

26 Oct 2024 - 4:16pm

Is there like a log file I can read what causes a black screen crash on linux?

Running bazzite HTPC, just casually web browsing when the display suddenly seemingly disconnected and reconnected again, but then the system is unresponsive to anything.

I'm using LACT for my RX7600XT, set the power limit to 130W from the default 150W and lowered the core clock down to 2470mhz. I think the setting on LACT might be the likely cause of this crashes, but I just need to make sure because I had the LACT setting for a month now without any problem before this week it suddenly decides to crash.

Why do I get no screen tearing on Linux?

26 Oct 2024 - 3:45pm

On Windows I get some very noticeable screen tearing in every game unless I enable free-sync on my monitor which totally fixes it. However on Linux my free-sync and v-sync is off but there's no screen tearing at all with no added input delay. How is this possible?? It's amazing

What is the current state of arc gpus?

26 Oct 2024 - 3:24pm

Hey folks, I'm planning on building a new pc for gaming and general purposes. I'm currently planning on using the arc a750 as my gpu. I have heard that these gpus are bad for gaming on linux, so I decided to ask you guys. Should I go ahead with the a750, wait for battlemage , or go with AMD?

Steam Game stopped using GPU

26 Oct 2024 - 1:50pm

Is there a Launch option in steam to force GPU usage?

Yesterday I swapped to Wayland and then back to Mate,
Since then, I am trying to run Vampire the Masquerade bloodlines, but it stopped using the GPU and now it uses the CPU only.

Other games still use the GPU just fine.

Charge limit issue - ASUS TUF F15

26 Oct 2024 - 12:23pm

Hello, I have issue with battery limit on ASUS TUF Gaming F15 FX507ZC4. It doesn't limit the battery to 85% as it should, it simply ignores the limit. What I've tried:

  • asusctl
  • bat
  • tlp
  • writing 85 in /sys/class/power_supply/BAT1/charge_control_end_threshold

I also changed from ubuntu to fedora, and nothing changed. It ignores the limit I set. Everything works on Windows 11...

The Division 2 via Lutris

26 Oct 2024 - 12:02pm

Hi everyone,

I hope someone here may have an answer for me. I tried running The Division 2 via the Ubisoft Connect Launcher which I installed in Lutris.
The Ubisoft Connect Launcher works flawless but if I start The Division 2, the game will be stuck in the epilepsy warning screen.
I suspect that Lutris fails to apply the Proton Environment to the game once I launch it via the Ubisoft Launcher.
For some reason none of my Ubisoft games are listed in Lutris, so the only way right now is to start the game inside the Launcher.

What else I tried?
-Creating an entry pointing directly to the Division exe
-Various different Proton Versions including (Lutris-ge-proton8-26, Proton experimental and wine-ge-proton8-26 -> all stuck in epilepsy warnign; GE-Proton latest -> won't even launch ubisoft) -I tried to add to the Ubisoft Connect entry the launcher option uplay://launch/4932/0
-Tried to add the game exe and the Ubisoft Connect exe as non-steam game and launch it there

My google-fu is at its end I really don't know what else I could try. I have seen several people claiming to actually being able to play the game via Lutris and there are even some YouTube Videos showing it, though I do not know how they were able to actually get it running.

I really appreciate any other hint or idea what mistake I do. Thanks in advance!

Running dota2 on arch linux.

26 Oct 2024 - 11:08am

I have the following characteristics:

  • Geforce 1050ti 4g- nvidia 560 drivers
  • intel i7 8th
  • RAM 16g
  • Arch linux hyprland
  • steam for linux

I started it through lutris - it didn't help. It seems that everything that is needed has been established. I have Vulkan and Proton.

  1. Dota2 cannot check anti-cheat.
  2. In the settings, there is no option to choose the screen refresh 144 rate. (has 144 in the system configuration and the monitor supports it)
  3. With medium settings, it already lags in the menu.

I used to run it on Kubuntu. Everything worked and everything seemed to be configured the same way. Even managed to set up Throne and Liberty to run via VPN.

Ark Survival Evolved : Missing Game Executable.

26 Oct 2024 - 11:06am

So, i've not played Ark SE for a while now. And felt like delving into it once more.

I installed it, and it downloaded instantly... Or at least, i got the "Download complete" message from steam, in less than a second, after hitting the steam "install" button. And THEN it started downloading... But it only downloaded 22.7 Gb.

So, what's the deal ? Am i wrong, in assuming, that it only downloaded the Mods i have for the game, and NOT the game itself?

Which WOULD explain, why i get the message "Missing Game Executable" when trying to launch the damn game?

I'm running Ark SE through steam, on a Nobara 40 OS.

Strange problem... But i see people have experienced similar issues, back in '22... Though, i couldn't find a post that gave an answer to WHY, or how to fix it ?

Hope there's a genius out there who can assist me, with some answers...

I keep having this thought... The Devs got so greedy, and money hungry, that they utterly removed Ark SE files, for their greedy Ark Survival Ascended.

Personal opinion : No way, i'd ever pay for a Mod, unless it's a massive one, that completely overhauls the game.
Quality of Life mods - Should and HAVE to be free... But that's just me !

I am Arch Linux user and play CS2 but I am getting "VAC was unable to verify games session" and I can't find solution for linux. I have verified game files reinstalled CS2 and steam itself. Do you know a solution or redirect me to a solution. That would be great help.

Note: I have played CS2 in my system previously and it suddenly occurred.

How can I change language of games in Lutris?

26 Oct 2024 - 8:35am

Long story short, I'm new to Linux. I downloaded Lutris and Cyberpunk. Sadly, it downloaded in English, while I wanted Polish version. Lutris has its hud in Polish and I used it since I bought CP on GoG, not Steam. Within game I cannot change voiceover language. What should I do?
