Bazzite install, scaling is so ever slightly off and driving me crazy.

14. Januar 2026 - 11:36

Hard to tell from the photo, but i’m getting artifacts around lines and text mostly, because it doesn’t seem to be truly 100% integer scaled. I’m using Bazzite and steam but it’s a system wide issue. Using a 9070xt gpu. I don’t have this issue in Windows at all. Any ideas? Feels like it’s either less than <1% off or it’s applying some sharpening filter.

What i'm trying to point out in the photo is say, on the red text you can see the edges of some letters is white, or the straight blue line is white in spots. And if I move a window around you can see it kind of flicker.

EDIT: weird, so I'm usually at 3840x2160 @120hz. If I just change it to 60hz the problem goes away, in desktop mode and gaming mode. I don't understand why that is other than there's probably not great support for the 9070xt yet?

FFXIV inputs being eaten

14. Januar 2026 - 10:13

Hi, I'm incredibly new to Linux (and quite frankly only a couple of steps above computer illiterate in general), just dipping my toes in with Mint. In Final Fantasy XIV, starting today, the game has started dropping some keyboard inputs while my mouse buttons are held down (to turn the camera). I found a solution, but it's less than ideal, and I'd rather it work how it did before today.

I just installed an update to Mint a couple of days ago, and I just learned in finding this subreddit that apparently wine updated as well. Figure one of those is responsible, but I don't know if I should try and roll back those updates, or if there's some alternative action I could take?

Examples where Steam integration in a game is a bad thing

14. Januar 2026 - 07:24

The steam version of the game "EDGE" has some bullshit that relies on an old feature of Steam where you have to join the community of the game to access the bonus levels, and that feature still exists, but it's now "following a game's community hub" and it's bugged as every time you start up the game you have to unfollow and follow the game on Steam to access the bonus levels, so I switched back to the DRM-free version of the game I got on humble bundle ages ago.

Anybody else have any similar stories?

Winboat vm

14. Januar 2026 - 04:22

To all members with in the group hi to all I will share with you a very good app which could help you in your Linux life by far did yall guys in the group know there is a recent new way of we can all run windows apps on Linux it is known as winboat vm similar to parallels on macs it is a virtual machine app but much different than what is traditional it is revolutionary and evolutionary it is a virtual machine on steroids if you wanna call it That it can bring windows apps from the virtual machine app and put windows apps in linux desktop environment such as kde gnome xfce etc anything like just as if the app is from/apart of Linux it self it can run a heavy list of apps including some adobe apps but it Lacks gpu passthrough so it will not be all apps that we could run it definitely can't do gaming but for what it is it can do so very much a whole lot and it is very amazing to use.

The Last of Us Part II - blocky shadows/textures?

14. Januar 2026 - 03:36

Hi all,

Working my way through learning Linux and have been trying out Bazzite the last few weeks.

Currently with TLOU Part 2, I have some weird graphical glitch with blocky textures. I haven't been able to fix/stop them, after adjusting pretty much all settings. They stay, though sometimes the blocks are larger. Running the latest stable version of the nvidia bazzite.

I also tried forcing Proton 10.03

It kind of seems like a shadow issue based on lighting, but I am not entirely sure. Adjusting shadow settings seemed to change the block sizes the most. What is weird, is that most of the time when previewing the settings changes, these blocks are gone until I back out of the settings menu.

i5-14600K

RTX 4080

Bazzite

Thoughts?

Weird streaking in MH: Wilds?

14. Januar 2026 - 03:31

Hi all. Not sure exactly what to post here, let me know if anything is missing.

MH: Wilds runs like shit, which i sort of expected, but it's also got this insane visual streaking bug. I'm only showing the menu here but it occurs in-game as well. Fresh install.

Any and all info would be helpful. I tried the below:

PROTON_HIDE_NVIDIA_GPU=1 PROTON_ENABLE_NVAPI=1 VKD3D_DISABLE_EXTENSIONS=VK_NV_low_latency2 _GL_SHADER_DISK_CACHE_SKIP_CLEANUP=1 %command%

which i found on a different post here but this didn't change it at all.

I'm sort of new to Linux but super happy to learn and having a lot of fun with it.

System info

  • OS: Arch Linux
  • KERNEL: 6.18.5-arch1-1
  • CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D 8-Core
  • GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080

Weird PC Issues IDK how to describe

14. Januar 2026 - 03:15

Hi, I just upgraded my PC and while things have been hassle free for the most part, I have had the occasional issue where, while playing a game (specifically Guild Wars 2), both of my monitors will freeze (but, based on audio, programs are sill running even if I can't see them) and if I reset my PC to try and get out of this state (the only way I know how to unless there's some magic keyboard combination to fix this kind of thing), my motherboard's onboard WiFi is no longer detected by the OS, but comes back the next day.

I have no idea where the problem is, no idea how to get logs for someone smarter than me to look over, and no idea what part could even be the cause of this, so any help would be appreciated.

Specs in a comment because my post keeps getting removed and I'm just trying anything to get my post out so I can get some help z.z

14. Januar 2026 - 03:14

Hello everyone, long term Nix user but today id thought to try out Pop!_OS for my new build. After upgrading and updating I went to build AMD driver for the 9070 XT using the correct Ubuntu LTS version but amdgpu-install fails due to “unsupported Os: pop” has anyone had these issues recently? I have updated ROCm but can’t “/install amd driver/“ Any ideas? Might just head back to Ubuntu :/

xpadneo stopped working system update

14. Januar 2026 - 02:49

xpadneo stopped working after my most recent system update.

I tried reinstalling it to no luck. I installed it through the install script it comes with instead dkms (couldn't figure out how to use it).

My controllers are still recognized by bluetooth, but steam does not recognize them unless I connect them via USB.

Completely stumped on getting Vampire The Masquerade Bloodlines to work

14. Januar 2026 - 02:12

Hello, I'm trying to play the game for the first time. I followed this guide to get the unofficial patch working since I'm using Linux Mint. However, my issue is that nothing happens when I try to launch the game. When I launch from Steam, the terminal, loader.exe or shortcut, the game's name turns green on Steam and says "running" for a few seconds, then stops as if it's not on at all. I attached loader.exe as a non-Steam game and ran it through Proton to see if that would help: the loader screen pops up, but nothing happens whenever I press either "Vampire" or "Unofficial Patch". I have the -game Unofficial_Patch launch option set for both the main game and loader.exe, I've played around with various Proton versions and dug around on ProtonDB but still nothing. I verified the game files and did a fresh install of both the game and the patch. I'm out of ideas and I seem to have exhausted all the relevant links I can find. I've been at it for hours and I just wanna play the dang game. Does anyone have any suggestions?
