Team Fortress 2 crashes in native but not proton.
My native version of TF2 crashes my entire computer to the point I have to hard restart. Linux Mint. gtx1650 mobile. Every other game works. TF2 proton works but forces the game to be in insecure mode meaning I can't play.

Give Guest Account access to a second hard drive
hello,I did create a second user without admin rights on cachyos.But I want that this user has access to a second hard drive where my steam library is stored.This hard drive is automounted with an entry in fstab and works well.Unfortunately when the second user is logged in the drive gets shown but he can`t see any files or folder and it says: no access
So I thought I have to make the second user part of the same group of the owner of the folder in which the disk is mounted ,like /mnt/mx512/ . I did also use the usermod command to add the second user to the same group of the admin.
But I still can`t access the hard disk although the second user is successfully added to the group of the owners of the hard disk. I also thought maybe I can change something in the fstab but I read that on ext4 systems the commands for groups don`t works and I have tochgrp the filesystem.

What do you do about streaming to different aspect ratios on Wayland?
It’s fairly easy on xorg to change the screen resolution to uncommon aspect ratios when streaming to devices like tablets or phones so you can utilize the entire screen.
It’s the only thing keeping me from going to Wayland.
As far as I can tell you just can’t do this on Wayland. Are you on Wayland just not using the full screen of devices you stream to? Does anyone have a workaround?

error on skyrimVR
so when i try to launch SkyrimVR i get this error and i don't know how to fix it as other people who had this error simply changed their directX version but i don't think you can do that with Skyrim.

Games randomly start stuttering like crazy, requiring a restart to fix.
I'm running Linux Mint Cinnamon 22, on Kernel 6.11.0-21, running the PC with a RTX 4060, Ryzen 7 5700x3D and I'm using GE-Proton9-26 with GameMode turned on, and as the title suggests, occasionally games will start stuttering like CRAZY for seemingly no reason at all. It might have something to do with an effect appearing on screen, but idk. This has happened to me on REPO, Halo MCC, Genshin, and Slime Rancher 2 so far. I'll have a video down below of this happening, but I honestly don't think the video really captures just how bad it is. I checked system monitor and everything seemed to be fine in there. I haven't checked any terminals/logs because quite frankly, I'm quite new to Linux gaming so I'd have no idea what to specifically check. This has never happened to me on Windows. Oddly enough, I've played alot of Minecraft and it has never once happened to me on there. I also seem to have a problem where while I was streaming Terraria my game felt like it wasn't getting a perfect 60fps, and OBS kept saying my "Encoder Was Overloaded!" so maybe these two problems are connected.
Here is where the lag starts happening.

Bottles/Lutris option that can create syslinks an exe needs on SD
Not a complete noob but I'm still very immature when it comes to understanding Linux. I'm playing NFS Unbound on the SD, and I want to mod it. To mod it, I need Frosty Mod manager 1.0.7. When I use it with just steam non steam game Proton, it crashes trying to create a syslink, saying I need admin rights or my SD card isn't formated as NTFS. If I use a 1.0.6.2 manager Linux patched, it won't recognize Unbound.
Unless someone can teach me how to patch or build 1.0.7 for Linux, would it be easier to teach me how to use Bottles or Protontricks or Lutris that solves the syslink / drive format issue?
I use Protontricks and it doesn't seem to work, even though I (think) I'm pointing it at the correct prefix(?), unbound. I still can't get around the syslink or format issue. Is there any way around this, trying to use a windows mod manager on Linux?
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Terraria/TModLoader crashing seemingly at random?
It's been a week since I made the switch to Linux Mint, and while I've been enjoying the experience so far, these two games (which are the ones I play the most) are giving me a headache. My laptop faaaar exceeds the minimum requirements for these (see picture below), but I could count at least ten times where the game would simply freeze my whole system and I had to reboot every single time. and these are both native games, I'm running them without Wine or Proton. what do I do?

Anyone know how to fix this?
I installed WINE to play Baldi's Basics Remastered and I downloaded it, put it in my Linux disk space, even put the BALDI.exe file out of the .ZIP file and into the disk space, and I ran the wine BALDI.exe command, and nothing's working (I updated and upgraded multiple times)
Does anyone know how to fix this? (I'm not that experienced with some of Linux, please excuse my dumb ass)

Gacha Games on Ubuntu (Genshin, HSR, WuWa)
Hi y'all. I'm planning on switching from Windows 11 to Ubuntu in the near future because atp im tired of Microsoft's nonsense. I play games such as Genshin Impact, Honkai: Star Rail and Wuthering Waves. I want to still play these games so how can I run these on Ubuntu? And will my accounts get banned if I do this because as far as I know all of these games has anti-cheat measures. I'm quite scared to use my main accounts here because I spent a quite decent amount already and built-up alot of characters. Losing it just because I switched into an unsupported operating system will be like a stab in my heart, countless times.

Does Vanguard destroy dual booted systems bootloader?
I have a windows 11 and pop os dual boot, with 2 separate SSDs. I just installed Pop so it was pretty new. It was working fine for a few days, I headed over to my windows to play a game of league then went back to PopOS. But I was unable to boot into PopOS, and from looking at the disks, my boot loader file was all janked. mind you, I turned safe boot off the entire time. However, my boot loader was broken and I had to rewrite it from a USB install

Games and game mods that require an executable installer to install?
I have some games that uses installer executables to install mods. For example, KOTOR 2 has a community developed tool called TSLPatcher that has only Windows version. There are also games that I own them retail, but not on digital platforms.
Steam is obv natively available and there's Heroic for Epic. What about GoG installers, DVD's etc?
