From what I can scour from past posts, there has not been any successful attempts at launching P5X SEA from Linux distros. I have been encountering problems myself on Fedora and Bazzite.

Either the game closes immediately after launching from its launcher with error code 0x7ab54 (which fixes itself after I change compatability, run, and change back to original);

Or I reach the login page but the login and news tabs do not work (main issue seems to be that the login prompt in-game is not opening the pop-up window, and the browser to see game news).

There was another post about this issue, but seems to be for the Global version of the game, which does not seem to work for SEA.

If there is anyone out there that has solved this issue in SEA version, I would greatly appreciate your help. Thank you.

I know it's not Linux gaming in the sense of playing a graphical video game on Linux, but if anyone is interested I have been developing a Linux terminal application for managing games like D&D, Pathfinder, etc. (theoretically, almost any TTRPG should be able to work with this system).

I got tired of constantly editing a PDF document and having to remember to modify the various character attributes whenever my Strength or Constitution or whatever increases. Figured since I was already doing most of my gaming sessions over the Internet anyways because my party members are all scattered across the continental U.S., I'd just write my own program to do all of that for me.

There are 25 commands, 4 data types, a hierarchical data structure for variables, Unicode support, and even a scripting language with `if`, `while`, and `for`.

I'm sure it's full of bugs since I haven't really had a chance to use it "in production" as it were, but I at least bothered to write some documentation for the program and help text for all of the commands.

i dont know if this is the right community, but im currently using windows 10 IoT like for a year or so. I recently stumbled upon CachyOS which is said to perform well. Well as a person who just download repack from the Internet and installing it to the System, Should i go for CachyOS? im a free gamer/piratedgamer.

I spoke with CarX Street support and they fix the issue in 2h approx!!

In early August, I moved the release of my game Total Reload on Steam from September to November, and two weeks later, the release date of Hollow Knight: Silksong was announced. It was like I knew something.

Rd is on sale and i m hesitant to buy . I installed Apex legends and War thunder and both of them crashed and wouldn't work . Is there a proton version i should install . I don't know how to use wine , i would appreciate the help.

So, after months of freezes and crashes, I've finally isolated the issue and it was the GPU all along.

To my surprise, since I had already contacted the manufacturer, the reseller offered to take back the item, not to repair or exchange it.

I was kind of blind sided by it and I did not really keep up with the hardware news so I do not know how RX 9000 series are (apart from being more power efficient?), so I am not sure of what to consider.

So, from a Gigabyte RX 7900 GRE Gaming OC 16G (~600EUR in May 2024), what would you upgrade to today for around the same price these days?

Recently with the windows 10 stopping support i was thinking of switching to linux probably mint but one thing that I don't know if it works or not i have rematch on the xbox store and other games but mainly rematch that i was hoping to play on linux is there a way to run xbox store with bottles or something i tried looking around but all i found was that UWP programs don't work but rematch is exe is there a chance that it will work?

Hey, so i was trying to play World of Warcraft on my cachyos machine and got a problem where the game does not recognize the GPU and is running very poorly and with artifacts but if run games on steam they work flawlessly, i am using Startwine as a frontend to run Battle.net, also tried with Lutris but the result was the same, low fps and artifacts! For runner i tried ProtonGE 10-15 and the latest steam-proton (i think 10.0.2), the game always starts in OpenGL mode no matter what i try and recognize my GPU as HD5600.

My setup is:
CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 5800x
MB: MSI B550 Unify-X
Ram: 32GB DDR4 3200MHx
PSU: 1000W Corsair
GPU; Sapphire Radeon Pulse 9070XT

My system is updated to the latest kernel and drivers, i even tried other distros like Fedora and Bazzite and the result was the same. Also tried older proton builds but with them battle.net starts with an error update agent went to sleep and i cannot do anything so i am forced to use ver 10+. Last time i had succeess running it was when i was using proton 9.2* with steam and GE version it was running perfectly, but now even on a fresh install it always give me this update agent error with those versions!

Any suggestions what i can try or should i go back to windows.

Hi all, so I’m playing Disco Elysium on my ThinkPad P72. I’m using Manjaro and it works great on Wayland.

The problem I have is that the game works beautifully on battery, with the Nvidia Quadro P4200 (Pascal) pulling about 35W.

But plugged in, the card loosens all restraints and the draw varies from 50-70W.

Given that I get 60fps at 4K without the extra power draw, this is completely unnecessary. And it means I can’t keep the fans to a constant low level without the GPU hotspot temp getting up to 89C or more.

As you know the Nvidia-smi options for power or clock limiting are more restricted for mobile cards. -pl doesn’t work. -ac appears to work but isn’t carried out in practice.

All I want is for the card to be fooled into thinking it’s on battery. But I’m stumped. LACT can’t change power limits either.

I’m on Bazzite (installed in desktop mode on my lowkey potato Lenovo PC), Sober is updated to the latest version as of typing this. It’s not a real issue because I can always play on my phone for 17+ experiences, but I sort of wish I had the option still.

Any other game with microphone that isn’t age restricted works fine. I am also age verified and I have the settings to where I am able to join. I’m mostly a Linux noob so I don’t understand what it could be.

I click any 17+ game, then it simply closes. No crash report. I don’t even get to see a Roblox loading screen, it just seems to give up on even trying.

To my best assumption I would guess it’s having trouble verifying my information, so that’s mostly why I haven’t bothered because I feel like there would be nothing I would know how to do in that situation. But again, I’m a noob, so it could simply be something I don’t know.

I guess I mostly wanted to also ask because when I searched I only got results for if it crashed in general. I thought maybe this would help someone else down the line when they’re searching if anyone has answers. Let me know if there are any other important specifications. I can also get my hardware information, but I just assumed it was irrelevant because on windows I had no issues, but I’m no tech wizard so idk if it’s important. 😅

I am using lutris, Tried to add gamescope, game don't open at all, tried to pass it as game arguments, still the top bar stays, tried x11, even same issue. What can I do?

I hope it's ok to post here - I’ve just released a demo of my new indie game, also on Linux. You can check it out on Steam: https://store.steampowered.com/app/3357170/Dude_Where_Is_My_Beer_A_New_Hop_Demo/

I only use Windows, but a friend of mine tested the Linux version and everything seemed to work fine. Still, please let me know if you run into any issues. Thanks a lot! :)

I get "The setup of Dualsense Wireless Controller has failed" via the GUI. I have to connect via terminal and if I do that and play something like Ghost of Tsushima, it will knock the bluetooth stack offline after a minute or two, sometimes faster, which means my headset also disconnects.

I do not have this issue on Gnome on any distro I've tried. Confirmed issue on EndeavourOS, CachyOS, Fedora while using KDE.

I'd appreciate any help in trying to diagnose this. Let me know what logs and from where you might need.

Hi! I'm had an issue, playing on linux thru steam, where the sound in game is very glitchy. Even other things, like music or youtube videos in the background start glitching if the game is running

I switched on compatibility tools in the properties of the game and now it runs perfectly, just a tip for anyone who runs into this issue

Whenever I enter this specific room, my game just crashes. Everything else works perfectly except for this. I have tried updating and restarting, and changing the version of proton I'm using, and it just refuses to work.

I'm on Arch Linux, and have tried proton hotfix, and 8.0-5.

Any ideas?

Hi, since I'm getting a new PC soon, I started looking for some gaming-focused Linux distros (I still don't know how to configure them) and found these two. (I know there are others, but I liked these two the most).

Which is the best? Or the one that offers the best performance. I think I heard Cachy was good, but Garuda seemed interesting to me, and I don't see it getting much attention. Sorry if it looks like a dumb question, I'm still new to Linux (I'm using Zorin for now).

The video card it's a Rx 6600 btw-

All of my gamepad’s inputs work fine in Steam’s controller test and in the system settings, but in actual games the triggers act really buggy. I also tried a web gamepad tester, and the triggers don’t register at all.

I’m on Arch Linux with KDE Plasma running Wayland, using an 8BitDo Ultimate Bluetooth Controller connected via Dongo.
