Just got Bazzite up and running and have my living room console set up but the Bluetooth/WiFi dongle I was using isn't working. Of course I waited until after to read the "Doesn't work with Linux" line on the box.

Is there any dongles people could recommend? Can give or take WiFi but need Bluetooth because I use DualSense controllers.

Living room is a relatively big space (not sure of exact measurements) so needs to be a decent enough dongle.

My PC: B650 mobo, 7700x CPU and 6700XT GPU on Garuda KDE.

I run the game at 1440p, high settings and no FSR (I find FSR makes the game too blurry despite sharpness set to 100%) through Lutris. The game runs pretty smooth as is, but I encounter spots where the FPS drops tremendously and then suddenly recovers. I've tried different runners and haven't seen any improvements, currently using GE-Proton.

Anything else I should try to improve performance? TIA!

I've tried running subnautica and a plague take requiem as a big performance requirement gap. Subnautica runs gracefully without a stutter or issue until it just randomly closes from a crash, and it never crashes afk on the menu screen. No common cause, it just kinda says "aight imma crash now". Plague tale requiem on the other hand smoothly opens up until it freezes on the auto save icon before the menu, and just freezes. I hear the menu music and sounds, but it isn't displaying anything for it. Once I launched and it managed to get to the menu just fine, but as soon as I clicked into the game saves it crashed instantly and closed. endeavourOS/arch GPU: 6700 XT CPU: 7600X RAM: 32gb DDR5 6000 M.2 1tb nvme drive Please help I'm confused.

Hello. I have a 3600X, a 5700XT and 32 GBs of RAM. I am using Arch linux, kernel 6.10.12-hardened1-1-hardened, mesa 24.2.5-1, amdvlk 2024.Q3.3-1. I am using the Wayland variant of Plasma for my DE. I tried Proton Experimental, 9.0 and 3.16, launch options of
PROTON_USE_EAC_LINUX=1 mangohud gamemoderun %command%
which just makes the game not launch at all, and
PROTON_USE_EAC_LINUX=1
which simple seems to be doing nothing at all.
There appears to be a wine pop-up window of an EAC installer that is fully black and disappears rather quickly. Any suggestions what to try next?

Edit: As per the title, I am assuming that this has to do with the anticheat installer not running properly. I tried running it standalone through wine and the winetricks gui thing however the former cried about lack of libgnutils (that is a lie, I have the gnutls package) and some other errors appear. Through winetricks gui, the installer fails with the following error appearing in the terminal
013c:err:winediag:gnutls_process_attach failed to load libgnutls, no support for encryption
013c:err:winediag:process_attach failed to load libgnutls, no support for pfx import/export
013c:fixme:kernelbase:AppPolicyGetProcessTerminationMethod FFFFFFFA, 005EFEB8

So for example the Witcher 3 has two versions for Directx11 and 12

What difference does it make for Linux? Is it positive?

Should one be excited for Directx 12 games on Linuz or not?

Would it be fair to say the Directx12 version is better?

I have tried to fix this by changing focus mode to click, turning on menu compat mode in steam, etc. and no common fixes have worked. I even tried to switch mouse theme since i heard that that would work but it has not. I have zero ideas left to fix this and i cannot use any dropdown menus on Steam.

I've been having a couple of troubles playing Diablo IV, though they seem to be worse with the new expansion. After a while of playing for a while, the game seems to leak VRAM and makes my desktop pretty unstable. Alt+tabbing occasionally breaks the game, the image freezes but I still hear the noises of the menus opening and such. If I don't alt-tab the game doesn't break.

I have found this thread about setting a dxvk file to limit the amount of VRAM available to Diablo. I set up the max VRAM to 8gib but mangohud still reports 10gb being used. I tried setting the DXVK_CONFIG_FILE flag but that also doesn't work. Mangohud report 10gb VRAM very fast. DXVK file contents:

dxgi.maxDeviceMemory=8192 dxgi.maxSharedMemory=8192

Decreasing the graphic settings just slows down the problem, it doesn't prevent it.

Launch options: DXVK_CONFIG_FILE=/gamedrive/dxvk.conf mangohud %command%

Specs:

Intel i7-12700K @ 4.900GHz NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 (driver version: 560.35.03) 64GB DDR4 EndeavourOS Linux 6.11.3-zen1-1-zen Hyprland GE-Proton9-16 submitted by /u/pathief

I really wanted to run bazzite but last time I checked no nvidia support yet =( .

Any other suggestions ? ..I do love fedora but had nothing but issues with gaming , no full screen, Xbox controller recognised thru steam but not in game (yes I went thru all the steam settings)

I would like a Linux distribution aimed at gaming where every thing is basically set up

Thanks for any suggestions

Ps sorry for the short post sitting here with a viral infection and tooth ache :/

We have finished testing the technical part of the game on the Windows platform. Recently, we released Total Reload for Linux. You can download the game here: STEAM.
We would greatly appreciate your feedback (especially any bugs you find) :)

I'm trying to get WoT working on Linux using bottles and I get the game to launch and connect to the server, but after a short period of time it disconnects and I cannot reconnect. Same thing happens when trying to run in with steam and proton experimental. Lutris never got the launcher even installed. I can't just use the steam version because I have a WGC account and I can't log in. Adding my pc's hostname to /etc/hosts got me to this point because before it wouldn't even connect at all. I'm asking for help because I had the same problem 2 other times while trying to switch to Linux.

I’ve had it with windows and their one drive integration the only thing that’s been stopping me from switching is the game availability and I heard a while ago that windows dual boot has stopped working is this true and if it is possible what Linux distribution should I use, also any good install guides would be greatly appreciated!

Does GNOME support things like HDR yet? I'm looking to try out something different than KDE. Where you navigate your machine using only a keyboard. I'll be gaming on this system most of the time, the rest is productivity stuff.

This is a distro suggestion post btw.

Any idea what could be causing this? The Big Picture UI is super slow. The games themselves are fine. I’m on Manjaro Gnome
