The last Manifest/Lua generator you'll ever need. 30k games indexed. (If the game isnt there u can request it)

31. Januar 2026 - 16:04

yo,

I got tired of the tedious process of hunting down specific .manifest files and writing custom Lua scripts just to get games recognized or working with external library tools. To fix this, I mapped a database of nearly 30k games into a searchable generator.

The Vault Stats:

  • 29,795 games indexed and ready.
  • What it does: Enter an AppID or game name, and it instantly generates the specific .manifest file and the corresponding Lua script.
  • Rules/Safety: To be 100% clear, NO copyrighted game data, executables, or cracks are hosted here. This tool only provides metadata and configuration scripts for your existing files.

Check it out: idkai.store

It’s a solo project, so if the generator misses a specific game, use the "Request Game" button and I’ll update the manifest/lua library

Nvidia and discord screensharing

31. Januar 2026 - 15:58

I recently switched to linux mint after windows got way too annoying and everything has been great up to today. I found out while talking to a friend over discord that screensharing tanks my frames and that the streamed video looks like a slideshow. I dug deeper and found out this has been an issue, but discord did something to fix it with wayland? I heard that this works for amd cards and is being worked on for nvidia cards from a video about 1 year old.

I've looked everywhere and I can't find any more information on this so I am asking:
Is there a way to make discord screensharing use hardware acceleration and work like on windows while having an nvidia GPU?

Help request: LACT Config on OpenSUSE TW

31. Januar 2026 - 15:53

could I get some help with this error? I’m just switching off of bazzite due to the fallout between Antheas and the broader founder group. I’ve got TW otherwise set up but I don’t understand what’s going on with this error. I grabbed the RPM off github, installed with YaST and this message won’t go away despite running the command in konsole

Debian 13 Stable or PikaOS 4 for Asus ZenBook 14 UX433FN?

31. Januar 2026 - 14:53

Hey guys! How are you doing?

I was gonna use Debian but I was concerned about NVIDIA drivers. Asus ZenBook 14 UX433FN is Hybrid-GPU laptop. It has Nvidia GeForce MX150 2 GB VRAM. I tried PikaOS once and it was running very good and I didn't find any issues with drivers and the GPU performs very good. But I didn't know what was the issue that made me move away. I was using Nobara and it was good but I thought that Debian is just fine. So I wasn't sure which one to use, Debian 13 Stable or PikaOS 4? And I saw NawaOS 1.3 and I wasn't sure to try it.

So what do you think?

Nvidia on Mint. Do you recommend I update from 580 to 590 drivers?

31. Januar 2026 - 14:10

Title,

I have been playing with the 580 drivers and so far so good. I see my Driver Manager now shows the 590 driver with a (recommended) next to it.
Would you advice to update? I dont want to break things but i'd appreciate a bump in performance if it will do that.

I use 5070Ti

Thanks

DualSense support on Linux - STAR WARS Jedi: Survivor

31. Januar 2026 - 13:47

My dual sense is working but it is shown as xbox controller.
In the global Steam Settings under Controller Playstation Controller Support is enabled.
In the game I disabled Steam Input.

Did anyone else manage to set up PS5 DualSense controller for this game under Linux?

Could it be that EA Desktop App Does something to the settings?

CachyOS is a scam

31. Januar 2026 - 13:15

Both aesthetically and practically. It was supposed to be user friendly and ready to go, but if you have a hybrid laptop then its the same as any other distro. Well, worst... as it doesnt even see my usb driver anymore so i can get away from this mess.

The Finals Error, Proton and EAC

31. Januar 2026 - 12:21

Hello!

First of all, I want to say that im not too experienced with linux, but I should still know the basics. So I wanted to play a game called "The Finals" on steam (im on ubuntu) but that did not work as there was just an error message in the the finals loading screen. It said that the game crashed and exited with the code 3. I looked around a bit and noticed that this is not rare at all. There seems to be a Problem with the Easy Anti Cheat and how Proton gets along with it. I have tried every different method I saw online which included trying all protons (+ Hotfix and experimental bleeding edge) and GE-Protons (10-29 and 8-31). However nothing like that worked for me or atleast gave me another error than the usual one. At this Point, I dont know what to do anymore as many other people have the same issue, but I just cant imagine that there is no linux player at all on the finals right now. The only option I can still think of, is a windows dual boot, but I would only consider that if there is no more possible solution out there.

Maybe some of you also already experienced this. It would be great if I could get some help here!

Thank you so much in advance!

[HELP] Minecraft modded freezing my entire system on Arch Linux (Fabric & Forge)

31. Januar 2026 - 12:16

Hi everyone,

For a while now I’ve been trying to play modded Minecraft on Arch Linux, and I’m running into a serious issue where my entire system freezes.

I was playing with friends using Fabric mods, and I could only play if only Minecraft and Discord were open (and even then it was unstable). If I opened something like a web browser, my whole PC would freeze and I’d have to force a reboot.

At first, I assumed it was just my hardware, since it’s not great, but the game was still playable. However, last night we decided to make a Forge modpack, and the problem got worse. With Minecraft + Discord open, the game runs fine at around 80 FPS, but out of nowhere the entire system freezes. This happened multiple times.

I then tried closing Discord and leaving only Minecraft open, but the freezes kept happening — just with longer intervals (before ~10 minutes, now ~20 minutes).

Things I’ve already tried:

Increasing allocated RAM

Decreasing allocated RAM

None of that helped.

System info:

OS: Arch Linux

Minecraft version: 1.20.1

RAM: 8 GB

GPU: Integrated graphics

Device: Laptop

I don’t really believe this is a hardware limitation, since the game consistently runs at ~80 FPS.

Any ideas on what could be causing this or how to fix it?

Thanks in advance.

Help for a noob please

31. Januar 2026 - 11:53

Hi everyone,

Been gaming on windows for over 10 years, but I'm kind of getting tired of the AI first mindset.

I've been interested in linux for a while, and I keep hearing that there's been lots of improvements recently in terma of how easy is tonget things set up and performance. I'm thinking I'd like to try setting up a dual boot, see how it goes. I keep reading that some hardware configs are less friendly so, considering all this:

  • Intel Core i5 -14600KF
  • 32GB RAM 6000MT/s
  • SSD WD_BLACK SN770 2TB
  • RTX 4070 Super

How viable is it using Linux with this hardware? What's the easiest distribution you'd use?

Thanks a lot for the help!
