CachyOs and Max Payne error
I had posted a reddit post earlier, but kind of became busy so couldnt respond, but I took some things from it, I didnt include my steps and error messages from Cachy OS. I been messing around with installing Max Payne On Lutris, the install went smoothly, its when I try to the launch the game, the first Error message that I get is this:
lutris-wrapper: Max Payne

Bad Lag and FPS Drops in Resident Evil Requiem on NVIDIA RTX 2080 SUPER
I'm on Arch Linux and I recently updated my system.
CPU: Intel i5-9600K (6) @ 4.600GHz
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER
16 GB RAM.
By no means the most up to date system, but I've been playing since launch and the was very well optimized, no FPS drops.
Since the latest update, I'm getting constant stuttering and FPS drops, to the point where the game is almost unplayable.
I was playing on proton 10, but I've tried on proton experimental and hotfix, but nothing seems to fix the constant FPS problems.
I'm almost certain the problem was the latest patch that was released, but I'm not sure how to resolve the horrible, constant FPS problems.
Has anyone had the same problem and if so how did you resolve it? Thank you!

My journey to Linux/Bazzite isn't a breeze but frustrating
How come my PS4 controller does not work on all my Steam games ?
I moved to Linux roughly one year ago, and after trying some of the games I played while on Windows with this controller, I'm wondering if that was something normal.
On some games I tried (Spiritfarer being the last, I've also tried Shadow of War recently), the controller works perfectly.
On some others (GTA V, Just Cause IV) it's not recognized, but I can play with the Steam Controller.
Is there something I can do to make the PS4 controller work on all games ? I'm currently on ZorinOS 18.

Does G-Sync work, even with multiple screens plugged in?
This is what held me back from switching to Ubuntu a few years ago. Has it changed since then?
I only need G-Sync to work on one screen for the record, but apparently G-Sync wouldn't work at all if you had multiple screens active.

Adaptive Sync screen flashing at 165Hz when taking screenshot
Hi,
I’m trying to figure out what the correct Adaptive Sync setting should be on Linux.
When I set Adaptive Sync to “Automatic”, I get a weird issue:
- If my monitor is set to 165Hz (max refresh rate) and I take a screenshot, the screen flashes briefly.
- If I lower the refresh rate to 100Hz, the flashing does not happen.
System info:
- GPU: RTX 4090
- Driver: NVIDIA 595.45.04
- Distro: CachyOS
- DE: KDE Plasma (Wayland)
- Monitor: 165Hz HDR monitor
Questions:
- Should Adaptive Sync be set to Automatic, Always, or Never on Linux?
- Is this a Wayland + NVIDIA issue at high refresh rates?
- Has anyone seen screen flashing triggered by screenshots before?
Thanks!

The game C.A.R.S.
Sorry if this is not allowed here.
Has anyone been able to get the game C.A.R.S. running? I have tried Heroic Launcher as well as Lutris, with no luck.

Bazzite—Elite 2 paddles aren’t working?
I installed Bazzite and my Xbox elite 2 controller is detected fine, works fine except for the paddles. They’re detected and I can assign buttons, but they do nothing. Switching from the “no lights” default profile does let the controller do axby as paddles but not be configured by steam input like I can in windows. Using Bluetooth, controller is updated.

HDR makes Indiana Jones unplayable on Linux (1 FPS + flashing)
Hello,
I'm having an issue enabling HDR in Indiana Jones and the Great Circle on Linux.
When I add this launch option in Steam:
PROTON_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 PROTON_ENABLE_HDR=1 %command%HDR does enable, but the game becomes completely unplayable:
- the screen keeps flashing
- the game runs at 1 FPS
If I remove the HDR launch option, the game runs perfectly and performance is almost identical to Windows.
What’s strange is that HDR works fine in other games with the same setup:
- Alan Wake 2
- Resident Evil Requiem
- Cyberpunk 2077
So the problem seems specific to Indiana Jones.
System:
- GPU: RTX 4090
- Driver: NVIDIA 595.45.04
- HDR monitor
- HDR enabled in desktop display settings
- Wayland session
Has anyone managed to get HDR working in this game on Linux?
Thanks!

DRM-Free Steam Games on Heroic using Proton: Outdated Vulkan Driver on Heroic but games still work on Steam
Disclaimer: Yes I know I could just play these games on Steam or buy them on GOG but I'm interested in DRM-Free games and want to expand my computer knowledge.
I am trying to run a handful of Steam Games that happen to be DRM-free using Heroic (as in not involving Steam beyond the initial download). I am on Ubuntu.
So far Linux native games are running successfully (except Bastion but that's another post's problem). However Windows-only games requiring Proton are not. The hangup seems to be that my GPU driver is too out of date and does not support an extension called VK_KHR_maintenance5.
Now I can select a driver new enough to support this but it's not a tested version of the driver (probably because my GPU is an old and trusty 1060). I'm fine with trying to update the driver if it's my only option, though my understanding is that untested drivers might cause other issues.
What I want to know is why Steam can run all these games using Proton but Heroic can't. Is Steam doing some other step to avoid this requirement and is it possible to do the same on Heroic? If I can figure this out, the games should work (or at least I'll get to the next error).
Possibilities:
Using Heroic's Steam Runtime option or not doesn't change anything, but I'm leaving it on as it seems to help everything else run.
This seems to be a DXVK requirement specifically so perhaps the "Auto Install/Update DXVK-NVAPI on Prefix" option selected by default on Heroic is part of the issue.
I see in Heroic's settings there an option to turn on "Allow using Valve Proton builds to run games" so maybe there's a difference between Valve's Proton and others.
In case it had to do with more modern Proton builds, I downloaded on older Proton version that claims full functionality for one of the games on ProtonDB and tried running it using that. No luck.
Thank you.

New Steam Games Playable on the Steam Deck, with Turbo Dismount 2 and Timberborn - 2026-03-14 Edition
A Magpie-like AI upscaler for any window on GNU/Linux (X11)
Started working on this a few days ago. It's an open-source, real-time upscaler CLI tool that uses CuNNy neural networks to upscale any X11 window and to present it in fullscreen, like Gamescope does.
Mouse clicks and motion are automatically forwarded to the original window, so it feels native.
It's installable via pipx.
I'd love to hear your thoughts, especially if you try it on your own games, visual novels and other media.

All Out on Linux
The game doesn't have Linux support yet, and no one I know attempted to run it, so I ran the installer on wine and attempted to run the game exe it on both wine and proton. Doing this redirects you back to the website.
WTF?? How else can I run this game until someone makes a project like sober?

[Fallout 4] LOW FPS on cracked version
. CPU: Intel Core i5-11400H
GPU: NVIDIA RTX 3050 Laptop GPU (4GB VRAM)
. RAM: 8 GB
Linux Distribution: CachyOS
Desktop Environment: Wayland
Proton / Wine Version: Latest GE-Proton
Game Launcher: Running with Proton (non-Steam game)
Release Info: FitGirl Repack
Issue: The game runs at very low FPS, around 20–25 FPS even in the main menu. Performance does not improve in-game. My hardware should be capable of running Fallout 4 much better.
Steps Already Tried:
- Using latest GE-Proton
- Running on CachyOS
- Checked basic settings
- Still getting very low FPS
