Very new guy here, playing on steamdeck. I used to just launch the modrinth app and play but today it started to just show a white screen. I found a solution on GitHub(https://github.com/modrinth/code/issues/3062) but I don’t know how to/where to implement it. Could anyone help me? Mor specifically, where do I implement the environment variable and what is the complete string of what I need to implement?

I have laptop with i5 8250u on arch with hyprland and I don't know what games will run well in it (I have 12600kf with 7900gre at home) but I don't know what to play on laptop

I wanna to switch from fedora to Bazzite and I wonder if it really will make a difference

Hi, I'm trying to get Cyberpunk running with gamescope and 1440p. My main monitor is 21:9, but for reasons I want to play it on 16:9 with black bars. I looked into gamescope, and got it running on 1080p, no problemas
(gamescope -w 1920 -h 1080 -f -r 144.0 --force-grab-cursor -- %command% --launcher-skip).

The whole monitor is getting used, and my game's on 16:9 with black bars. But since my monitor goes up unto 3440x1440, I wanted to up my resolution to 2560x1440. Now my problem is, that it's not using the whole monitor anymore. it renders the resolution and the rest is just my desktop.
(gamescope -w 2560 -h 1440 -f -r 144.0 --force-grab-cursor -- %command% --launcher-skip)

Did I overlook something? I also tried to add -W 3440 -H 1440 with no difference, -S stretch would work, but I don't want it so be stretched. The other -S options result in the picture above. Also the ingame settings are always set to borderless window, even if I add -f.

So, recently i switched to mint and i wanted to install roblox studio with vinegar, everything works fine except the studio interface glitches and it flashing all the time (it’s not that noticeable in the picture but it flashes black or green pixels really fast every seconds) it flashes terribly in the whole home interface, however it does not flash that much when i enter editing interface but it still glitching on a random button in editing page, then it get worse and consume the whole page while saving. I installed vinegar from flatpak via terminal, i reinstall the vinegar many times but it’s still appearing the same, i tried searching solutions and i found none of it. Does anyone know how can i fix this? Thanks

I've been trying at this for a couple of days but can't seem to get it locked down... for some reason xvi will hang with the wayland driver enabled, but when i use gamescope it has a whole host of issues too. it'll crash on boot most of the time and when it does manage to get in game, hdr doesn't seem to work properly at all. I'm on the newest mesa driver (25.2 git) and have tried different versions of proton (ge proton 10-3 and cachyos proton) with no luck. it launches consistently with proton 9, but all versions of proton 9 don't have support for FSR 4 which IS something I want to use... I realize that what I might be trying to do might not be there quite yet between the shift in how hdr works in games because of the wayland driver and FSR 4 still being early days, but do you guys have any advice?

Hello, i just set up my tasoller on cachyos to play umiguri. Everything was working fine but I now realize umiguri wasnt able to read (or possibly detect) the chart files. Does anybody who play umiguri on linux know how to fix this?

I've wanted HDR on Linux since 2018, and been following it ever since. Thought we would get HDR with Stadia (2019), or from the Steam Deck (2022) (we kinda did?). But I haven't been able to use it on my desktop PC properly. Gamescope does kinda work, but I found it to be unreliable.

Fortunately everything appears to be working for me now, and the instructions to follow what I did are pretty easy:

• 6.14.7 kernel
• AMD hardware
• Gnome + Wayland
• Use HDR Display
• Set launch options to DXVK_HDR=1 PROTON_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 %command%
• Use Proton GE 10-3

The only downside is I get this new controller bug when I do this. I see "Remote desktop" every time I try to do anything and it's really annoying. Probably related to:

• https://www.reddit.com/r/linux_gaming/comments/1dq7rkp/i_get_this_prompt_every_time_i_plug_in_my_steam/
• https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/10442

Honestly I am not certain the bug is caused by HDR, or maybe it's just the game I am playing. But it's certainly progress!

Hey all i recently installed ubuntu 22.04 lts and tried to get guild wars 2 to run. When choosing proton i tried everything. 9 gave me an error that i needed direct x or updated drivers (i have a amd radeon 9070) and when trying experimental, GE i briefly have a cursor and sound but for the rest black screen which then turns into a full black screen no noise no cursor on my main monitor and my second monitor turns green. I have tested another game (mu complex) which runs fine. Anyone have an idea what could be going on?
