It takes a while for the game to run through Heroic Game Launcher. I tried changing Wine proton 10 and Ge proton latest from heroic. There was no change.

But when I manually add the exe file from the game location of the same games to steam and launch it in proton 10 in steam compatibility, it runs very quickly. Why is it so slow in heroic?

Hi everyone,

I'm not very knowledgeable about Linux, and my overall experience with it has been extremely negative. When I was about 14 (I'm 22 now), I installed Ubuntu on my PC and was really upset that my whole Windows installation got wiped. I struggled for a year before I figured out how to install Windows. But after the announcement of SteamOS, I've decided to try getting back into "Linux gaming" (I'll keep Windows on a separate partition of the drive anyway).

Honestly, I have two questions:

1. Is it worth it for me to bother trying Linux with my setup: NVIDIA RTX 3050 6GB + Ryzen 5 5600?
2. If it is worth it – what distribution (OS, Kernel, I'm not sure what the correct term is) should I choose? I'll only be using this partition for gaming; I need Windows for work (very specific software).

i translated this with ai, sorry if it isn't very good

Hi.

I upgraded my Wireless USB dongle to the latest firmware 2.05. My controller immediately stops accepting inputs when I press 3 buttons at once or sometimes even just 2 and shortly after turns off.

Pretty hilarious when FW 2.04 supposedly fixes a disconnect bug with Dual Shock 4, which is what I'm using it with. I did replug it in after getting back to Linux, since that apparently was 1 fix for disconnect bugs.

The dongle in question is the orange one: https://www.8bitdo.com/wireless-usb-adapter/

Is there any other fix than simply never upgrading past 2.01, which is the latest FW version I could get it to work on somewhat reliably? I say mostly, because it rarely disconnects mid game and I have to replug it in after every reboot or I can't use my controller.

I mostly just want the profile button combo of the later firmware. Instead of the stupid push both sticks in one, that constantly gets triggered unintentionally.

I have the same problem with Nobara 42 and Fedora 42

Hello everyone I am confused between these two distributions I have amd GPU and CPU so (doesn't say arch) (:

Edit I mean pika os or nobara os

My old 28" 1080p, 60hz monitor just died after many years of faithful service. I used it for YouTube and movies, not gaming. Once you get used to having two monitors, having one again really sux, so I quickly got another.

The cheapest good one I found on eBay happens to be a 28" 4k monitor. It's still on it's way. Linux has had no problem spanning the desktop across two 1080p monitors, but games like TF2 tend to black-screen if I set the gaming monitor to 120hz or 144hz, so the 4k will probably need to run at 1080p to keep the system stable.

My question is, does a 4k monitor set to 1080p have better resolution than a 1080p monitor?

Edit: The new 4k is an ASUS TUF VG289Q1A.

I am currently using bazzite kde and I installed tlou2. Fps in the menus are totally fine but when I start playing the game the vram usage increases and reaches at 4gb. I am getting only 1fps. My cpu and gpu usages becomes very low. I tried to use some different proton versions on steam but nothing changed. One of the proton versions add dlss on settings but it didnt change the situation.

You can discuss the game here, I'll be happy to answer any questions you have :)

Hello!

As mentioned in the title I always get the taskbar permanently showing when I start wow. Screenshot

I run battle.net via Lutris with wine-10.8-staging-tkg-amd64 as my wine version. My OS is openSUSE tumbleweed with KDE Plasma in a 2 monitor setup. I can temporarily fix this by swapping from fullscreen to windowed and back again, but it gets on my nerves now after some time. Maybe someone discovered a fix or a workaround that would help me.

I had these HDDs when I used Windows 10. but today when I re-mounted the drives, And partitioned them, They were mounted to Media. which when I googled, is for removable items (CDs, USBs, etc) I have been using ask Ubuntu to try and find out how to move them to make them An actual location, such as my SSD. I realized that I could write to them because of Steams "Disk Write Error" message. I am using DraugerOS.

How do I undervolt my AMD CPU on Manjaro using amdctl?
I don't want to risk anything that might but my hardware into danger.
I know in windows I was using the power management setting where I would set my CPU to never go above 97%, which always would drop my CPU temps from 85~ ish to 70 at full throttle.

Hello, I have a Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 7 with Linux Mint, 8GB of RAM, and i5-1135G7, and Intel Iris Xe Graphics, and I was wondering, how can I check and change exactly how much VRAM my Iris Xe is using? Unfortunately I cannot upgrade the RAM, so I'm using zram to have 8GB of swap memory

My specific usecase is playing Minecraft with some shaders like BSL at 1080p native resolution with Distant Horizons at 32 DH chunks and 8 vanilla chunks, and I get around 30-35 FPS average, which I can get used to, but without DH, I get around 40-50 FPS at 12 chunks of vanilla render distance. I heard it's supposed to dynamically allocate as much RAM as your system has free, but how do I really know? MangoHud nor 'intel-gpu-tools' can show me. I also dunno if zram actually helps with freeing up the VRAM for my iGPU. Any ideas?

I'm looking to switch over from windows! Absolutely hate windows 11 and looking for alternatives.

I'm currently using 9070xt as my gpu

Any recommendations or guides?

I run a beefy system, and CS2 runs like butt cheeks unlike on Windows for me, however I learned today that you can enable Gamemode (Had to install it on my OS).

So the issue is, it drops to 240 FPS which is not a bad number, but the game feels legitimately like I am playing at 60hz with input delay too, after enabling Game mode the average is now 419 FPS, and zero input lag, and it feels like I am playing on my 180hz display now.

If you've got 100% AMD and change the reimage script, you can install SteamOS on your PC.

Note : IT IS UNSTABLE. IT CAN DISAPEARE FOR NO REASON. (On the hardware i had at least)
