En ingles:

Hi, how are you? I'm looking for help because I don't know what else to do. I've been trying to play a pirated repo on Linux Mint for two days now. I've tried with Proton and the Bottle app, but the game opens and closes instantly. Could someone help me? If so, I'll be waiting. Thanks. It's a game I really love and I want to try it. Also, I should mention I'm new to Linux; I've only been using it for three days.

So I game on a laptop, and Im constantly switching between using the built in screen (when out) and an external monitor (when home) and i have an issue. When using the "Apply scaling themselves" setting, games run at way higher resolution than my monitor, and when using "scaled by the system" while only using my built in display, my resolution is far too low. I wanted to ask if there is anyway to have my laptop automatically change this setting when plugging in an external monitor.

Can you recommend a Arch based linux distro, with KDE Plasma that is:
Good for gaming, streaming, videoediting
Good for everyday use

Emulators works almost out of the box. (Visualboyadvanced, PS3 emu, Wii emu)

Games install and launched through Lutris works fine(ish).

AND IS NOT GARUDA! (no beef, i just dont like how it looks sry)

Thanks!

I might be super dumb as it seems to work for everyone else (and I can't find anyone else with the same issue), but I cannot get my switch pro controller to work on steam in Ubuntu 24, even wired (it's also not found in Bluetooth devices even when pressing the sync button but getting it to work wired would already be fantastic).

I installed joycond, the controller is detected by steam (as in, it appears in the list of controllers) and by lsusb, but I can't configure it, and no input is detected, not even in steam big picture. Pressing the buttons just gets the player leds flashing for a few seconds.

If anyone has any idea as to what I'm doing wrong I would be forever grateful.

Just moved full time to Linux, I’m running EndeavorOs and having a great time, wanted to stream my games to my deck as I did on windows only to find out it didn’t work, was trying different things and I decided to change the session from Wayland (this is my default) to x11, and the stream worked, problem is when I play on my desktop using Wayland I have great performance and when using windows streaming felt awesome, when trying x11 the game feels real choppy and I don’t think is the connection, don’t know if that’s just how x11 feels, less smooth than Wayland, if I can improve it or what alternatives can I try.

I had a playthrough of dmc 3 crimson edition and I was on mission 18 and when I switched, my progress obviously got reset, is there a way I can get the crimson edition mod to work so I can skip to that mission (I also just love the gameplay it's soo nutty🤤)

So I'm trying to get Escape from Tarkov to work on Ubuntu (i belive 25.10) and so far i could get the launcher working with Lutris. Now, I bought the game on Steam but since i have to use Lutris to make it work i have to select the directory on the launcher. The very, very stupid problem is the fact that the .local folder is hidden and so it won't show up in the select directory window. How can I get around it? (I'm still pretty new to Linux so try explaining it as easily as you can)

I am getting a pc soon, 5700x, 16gb of ram and a 9060xt 16gb.
my friend helped me preinstall cachyos on my old pc to see how it looks and if i like it, but i'll install a new version on it when i get the pc.

I wanted to know if these games will work on cachyos, and if i should put windows (or steamos) on the smaller drive i have to play the games there instead of linux.

The games I am wondering about are:
Warthunder
Teardown
Star Wars games: Jedi fallen order, Battlefront 2, Squadrons
Phasmophobia
People Playground
CS2
Roblox
Clawed (not out yet, theres a demo but if theres any other dino horror game that works well on linux i'll check it out)

Hey all, I am using Linux Mint 22.1 and I am running on a 4k monitor, I can get steam to look normal size using the built in settings for scaling on the desktop, but when I am gaming my steam overlay looks tiny no matter what game I play, I normally play most of my games at 1080p as I don't need to overheat my videocard for something that doesn't make too much of a difference to me. Sometimes the steam launch command "GDK_SCALE=2 %command%" works but only a small amount of the time if at all.

Any help appreciated on how to fix this permanently.

Playing Arc Raiders on Pop!_OS 22.04 through Steam. The game launches fine but I have severe mouse issues, my camera rotation is frozen/limited to a certain range and the mouse randomly jumps around. Makes the game unplayable.

Setup:

• GPU: AMD RX 9070 XT series
• Pop!_OS 22.04
• Steam (native, not Lutris)
• Proton Experimental (also tried 9.0, 8.0, GE-Proton)

What I've tried:

• Multiple Proton versions (Experimental, 9.0, 8.0, GE-Proton)
• Cleared compatdata folder
• Verified game files
• No launch options (running stock)
• Switching between fullscreen/windowed modes

The mouse issue happens consistently regardless of Proton version. Works fine in menus but becomes erratic during gameplay.

Has anyone with AMD GPU gotten this working? Any specific launch options or settings I should try?

Hey guys I have thought about changing from windows to some linux distro but would would my games run better and can I play any steam game on Linux?

I keep getting this pop up every time I start the game, and I notice frame drops regardless of graphic settings. my driver manager said no drivers needed and I even installed the 25.30.1 deb file from the AMD site. I'm not sure if it will just always show this or if there's a separate issue.

Hey I have a question that , there is any linux distro that can be run on the Dell latitude E6400, the specs: Processor: x64 core 2 due IGPU: Nvidia Quadro NVS 160M Notebook RAM: Laptop DDR3 4GB NIC: broadcom b43 wifi card or something. I tried many distros , like debian, antixLinux and alpine linux , there all fast but not support all the drivers.

I found quite a few posts here, but they are from at least 10 years ago. I played the first one way back, then never finished the second. I grabbed Homeworld 3 last year (complete with the mothership) but decided I should finish the second game before diving into the third. Problem is, HW 2 kept crashing under Windows 11. Now that I am running Mint (Zara), I'm wondering if anyone has tried 2 (and 3) successfully. I've had good luck with just about every other game, so I'm ready to jump in. (It would be running under Steam.) I'm on a home-built system, AMD Ryzen 9, Radeon 7800.

Hey everyone! I was planning on buying a controller for my PC this Christmas and I had my eye on the EvoFox One S for a long time. Everything was great but I wasn't sure of its compatibility with Linux(I use CachyOS with KDE plasma). I tried looking it on the internet and found nothing anywhere.

I don't want to buy it and later realize that its incompatible with my PC so I'm asking if anyone here has tried to get it running out of the box (or some troubleshooting, doesn't matter).

If it doesn't work, what controllers do you use(I've seen some linux supported controllers but I wasn't really interested in them.

Basically the title. I can get it to run in the background but the application won't open to actually edit new games I have. I've tried deleting the boxbuddy arch toolbox it's in and rebuilding it following this guide: https://www.reddit.com/r/Bazzite/comments/1is7hg7/how_to_install_steam_steammetadataeditor_a/

I've also tried installing it via different methods like the ubuntu/debian terminal install guide on the github: (https://github.com/tralph3/Steam-Metadata-Editor) but just rewording the command to work on Bazzite. Literally nothing that I have tried works and at this point any help getting it back open would be greatly appreciated.

P.S. I'm still very new to linux so please be patient with me here, I really have zero clue what I'm doing here lol.
