I wanted to play some android games I installed genymotion It's seem it's emulated an x86 android the game that I wanted to play run on arm architecture Any solution to emulate arm android on Linux

Whenever I try to log into EGS using the other sign in options, it opens the “complete login in browser” thing, but doesn’t open the browser. Even when I have my browser open, it won’t open the tab. Plus, if I try to log in to Epic Games inside Lutris, it will show my games completely fine, but it will not actually let me play them.

And no, I don’t remember the password to my Epic Games account, nor do I have access to the email associated with it. Yes, I have also started a recovery request to recover my account.

I’d be happy to provide videos and/or photos if needed

I heard the maker of DLSS Swapper is developing for Linux, but I don’t know if there are any other methods.

I'm on arch linux, and whenever I run any wine game, with any version of wine or proton, I almost always get an "...requires windows 7 or greater" error.

BioShock remastered? "BioShock requires windows 7 or greater, game will now exit"

Call of duty advanced warfare? "Game requires windows 7 or greater"

When downloading a fitgirl repack, when it got to the stage where it installed the required c++ runtime version, it said that "...requires windows 7 or greater."

What's even weirder, is that literally like two days ago, this wasn't happening, all of those ran fine, so now it's just suddenly doing this and I have no clue why.

Was trying to test CPU limited scenarios as I usually like to lower my settings to get high frame rates and low latency, and wanted to see how I might do once I upgrade my GPU to something much faster. Cyberpunk is one of the first games I've tested, and I noticed that on Windows I can acheive MUCH higher frame rates than on Linux.

My Linux averages are 160-170 in the benchmark across maybe a dozen runs with different tweaks, but on Windows I can easily acheive 210+. Nothing with my setup is out of the ordinary, I only installed this distro a few days ago.

Specs:

5700XT GPU

5700X3D CPU

32GB 3600 CL18 Ram

Asus B350-F gaming mobo, latest bios

Latest EndeavourOS/Windows 11 versions as of writing, stock kernel.

In game settings:

Everything turned off or on the lowest setting it goes, lowest resolution available (sub 720p, basically), FSR 2.1 ultra performance.

I've also tried FSR 3, no upscaling at all, swapping proton versions between the latest stable or the latest GE/experiemental, etc.

The settings are only this commically low because my GPU isn't the best so it's the only way I can really CPU limit myself. I plan on getting something like a 5070ti, which would be 3x the speed and I can play at reasonable settings again and the results should be somewhat similar.

So I don't know if any specific part in my chain is causing issues, but when I get a new GPU my plan was to play cyberpunk at 200-ish, but it seems like that won't be possible on Linux?

If anyone else wants to confirm my results with a similar GPU and insanely low settings then feel free!

So recently I got a RTX 3050 (got it for a really cheap price) so I decided to play games like Cyberpunk, God Of War, Witcher 3 and more... So my experience is quite weird because first of all, I don't have cyberpunk and witcher on steam and I had to run them using wine on lutris. I noticed that performance was kinda bad compared to Windows. On my phone right now so can't really share any screenshots but I was getting like 70-80(dlss balanced + frame gen and frame capped because of stuttering) on windows whereas on Linux I was getting less fps and stuttering is absolutely terrible. I was able to fix it somehow and got the frame gen mod to work on Linux (had to use proton experimental as its the only option right now) but even after using the same settings on Windows, with frame cap i am still having stuttering issues. Don't know if it's something related to vkd3d or rebar or shader cache. Have no idea.

Let's talk about witcher 3. It's another weird experience. I used both wine, wine-ge but as far as I can remember it's not terrible but not a great experience. Ofc i will test it today again to see what's up with this game. And finally god of war. Idk what's the issue but this game runs like crap. Only 50 FPS on high settings + DLSS. But on Windows I was getting like 80-90+ fps all the time without any stuttering. Before anyone says that I am criticizing Linux, no, I have been using it since 2021.I hate Windows but there isn't a great alternative here. Based on my experience I hope you guys understand what I am trying to say. If anyone knows what's causing this and all, please help me run these games better.

Edit: I use Manjaro (switched to it yesterday) as Garuda had issues with booting. If someone wants to know.

Thanks for reading!

Is there any alternative yet? I wiped my Windows partition just to find Lossless Scaling and it works wonders with Arma 3, so I had to install Windows again just to use it. Since it is always stuck around 60fps because of server FPS limitations and not hardware, my 4070 is gimped by the game's crappy design and Lossless Scaling puts it up to 144fps incredibly easily with minimal latency now with LSFG3.

I can't for the life of me get Lossless Scaling to run at all on Linux, even inside of a container to be used with a game. Is there any alternative or workaround to get it working? I've been looking around for about a week but haven't found anything. Would love to stay within Linux but LSFG3 is the only thing I feel like I'm missing out on at this point.

Did anyone manage to run latest updates of Cyberpunk 2077 + CET? I haven't played it in a while and after updating things to recent versions, it's not loading becasue of CET (it loads without it).

I'm using Wine 10.1 (+esync and all the usual dxvk / vkd3d-proton) but the same thing happens in vanilla and full wine-staging).

The only suspicous error in the logs that I see is this:

0184:fixme:graphics:ShutdownBlockReasonCreate (0000000000030056, L"Generating error report"): stub

UPDATE:

It is a regresion in Wine. Just tested it with 10.0 and it works. I'll try to narrow it down.

I don't know the best way I can describe this, but on most of the games I launch on Lutris, the MangoHUD interface is always showing up, no matter what I do to try and disable it. I've disabled the global MangoHUD option on Lutris. I made sure that the MangoHUD option is disabled on each individual game. I've tried uninstalling MangoHUD and GOVerlay. Nothing I do is getting rid of the overlay, and I cannot find another person who has ever had this issue.

Does anybody have a clue on how I can turn off this stupid overlay?

None of my steam friends are showing in friend list. Is this an issue on windows too and how to fix?

I'm new to Linux. I want good headphones for gaming. Can someone give me examples that work for Linux, most headphones I look up only have software for windows.

Here's my criteria: Wired preferred Surround sound Over ear Software with Linux My options to plug in are 3.5mm or type c $100-200

I'm playing on Rog Ally X with Bazzite/ Linux OS

So I've been using windows for many years and just recently, I'm really fed up with windows as they are pushing Ai slop with their bloated Os. i just switched from win10 23h2 to win11 24h2 (clean install) and while my performance went up, alots of bugs came along with it.

i don't wanna really get into the bugs I've encountered while gaming, but what i will say is that starting playing on pc i was really competitive in fps games and slowly started taking gaming less serious since im getting older and just want to chill and having more fun with games as it should be fun and not stressful. so I also just got a steamdeck and love playing it and i love the UI and UX and the overall OS in general. so i got my first taste in messing around in linux and learning what flatpaks and compatibility layers are.

i really want to switch to linux on my desktop with using steamOs. A few of my questions are, is it good idea? should i use bazzite? and can i use a nvidia gpu? and can i use pbo2 tuner to undervolt my cpu and run at startup like i do on windows with task scheduler?

any opinions would help, thanks!

i also want to dual boot linux/windows just so i can play D2

My PC Specs

R7 5800X3D (Undervolted with pbo2 tuner software)

I decided earlier today to set up a dual boot and try out Linux Mint instead of Windows 11.

Been researching the past few hours to figure out my drivers. Basically, Secure Boot is blocking my Nvidia 3080 drivers from running. Everything is up to date, doubled checked my kernel version.

To clarify, I've tried the 550 drivers and the newest Nouveau drivers (Nouveau runs fine, but because I pretty much only game on my computer, I don't want to have to be stuck with them.)

I'm wanting to keep Secure Boot enabled, and I haven't found much info on setting up DKMS to sign my drivers on my own. I would rather stick with Mint if I can instead of moving to Ubuntu to see if it decides to work on there. Any ideas?

ive been playing on my ps4 using chiaki remote play.

but an annoying bug occurs: even playing full screen the fedora locks the screen after the inactivity time.

anyone knows how to solve it?

Hello guys. I am sure most of you have heard of the brilliant game Medieval 2 Total War. Now, I wanted to make a big writeup here, but I realized most of you would probably never read it. The point is, I wanted to install a mod for this game called Third Age Total War, and I succeeded with the help of Proton. However, there is a submod called Divide and Conquer, which I haven't been able to install on Linux. The installer just glitches out for me.

So I got an idea. Why don't I make a Windows 10 VM, install the mod there, and then copy all the files to my Linux installation?

And that's what I have done. But I am not sure how to actually "transport" the 20 GB of data (which is the size of the mod) from the VM to Linux? I am using virtualbox.

Any ideas? I am very frustrate rn because the files are all on my hard drive but how tf do i transport them to linux
