I switched to Fedora mid dev without major issues.

It'll come out for Steam OS and Windows (runs flawlessly on my Desktop of course).

Someone in PUBG PC discord server requested for linux support. We have 344K members, if only half of us go and comment there probably they will notice. I am sharing the thread link.

hey y'all, I am trying to get into game development with unity. I installed the unity hub and visual studio code from flathub however whenever i attempt to edit a script i consistently get the error message "The dotnet6 and mono6 SDK extensions are required for the Unity debugger to work. Please install it from flathub." Ive installed almost every version of both from flathub using the konsole and still cant get past the error. Im a bit of a noob with linux so any advice would be appreciated greatly!

I just started using Linux and don’t know which one I should use. I currently have Ubuntu, and with wine it works fine. But I don’t know which one would be best 🤷‍♂️

I have dependancy on windows os . I have one system with graphics card. Which linux os is best for gaming and have windows too installed inside it to run both.

Windows 11 is taking away lot of resources and heavy background processes even while playing games.

Have 9060xt 16gb with 5600g b550 msi. Ya it's low processor etc. but can't upgrade my pc any sooner

Hi,

So, I'm a big fan of Owlcat's Pathfinder and WH40K: Rogue Trader CRPGs. I previously played them on Windows, and experienced few issues. While the games also function for a time on Linux, I have a persistant crash in both Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous and Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader linked to specific cutscenes that play early on in each game.

In the case of WOTR, the game will function fine throughout character creation, and through the first cutscene where Terendelev heals the player character. The festival segment at the start is fully playable, and there are no noticable performance issues or graphical anomalies. However, when gameplay transitions seamlessly to the cutscene of the festival being interrupted by a demonic invasion, the screen freezes, the audio continues to play, and the game will inevitably either crash to boot or (in very rare cases) simply crash to desktop. Not only is the game locked up, but the OS also appears to lock up, and upon restart if the entire system crashed, my NVIDIA graphics driver will cease to function until my PC is restarted a second time (notably, Firefox will refuse to launch, citing a driver error). This issue does not seem to persist past a second reboot.

A similar issue also happens with Rogue Trader, although it is linked to a different cutscene that is much further into the game. I thought this might be linked to the camera being moved around, but Rogue Trader features a sweeping camera shot of the interior of the ship you start the game aboard before you take control, and while there is a brief fade to black in between the segments, the game does not crash like it does with the seamless transition from gameplay to cutscene in WOTR. However, the game will always crash at the same point when you investigate the Rogue Trader's quarters and find her dead, at which point the exact same issue will occur, including the failure of the driver.

I have so far tried a number of fixes, including one fix that worked for a time on Rogue Trader, but did not seem to work when applied to WOTR. I wrote a guide detailing my methodology on Steam, linked here: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3414770147 . However, at some point between then and now, something has changed with either my system or during one of the updates that has been pushed to the game due to the launch of the Lex Imperialis expansion causing the fix to stop working. I have been running the game in GE-Proton-9, with the launch flags specified in my guide.

If anyone could suggest potential fixes, that would be very much appreciated.

Has anyone been able to get RX 9060/9070 GPUs working on Debian Bookworm? I tried using backports for Mesa 25 & a 6.16 kernel but outside of the card vendor being "ATI" nothing was detected and I wasn't getting acceleration or full resolution. Also tried with AMDGPU-PRO but that didn't work either. I was getting a signal from the GPU's displayport but, again, not fully detected.

I want to install Linux Mint or Bazzite in the future, most games run fine on them except this game. I've checked the game on ProtonDB and it seems that it doesn't run too well on Linux, is there a way to run it directly on Steam without running a virtual machine with Windows?

Rig: i7 8700, GTX1060 6GB, 16GB of RAM

It seems like support to force MSAA in dxvk has been removed, i couldn't find an explanation. Is it really gone?

On one hand I really like the idea of Bazzite, on the other I much prefer staying close to the source without another middleman (which would be the case with Bazzite). I have no doubt the Bazzite team does a good job, but I still prefer more minimalistic approaches and Bazzite is a bit too much for my taste. While I definitely do play games I still use my PC for a lot of normal stuff too. And even when playing games I dont nearly use half of all the features AMD offers, basically all I need is an FPS cap and undervolting as well as Steams FPS counter. Anyway, what exactly would I need to do to install on a fresh Fedora install? As far as I see I need to do most of the stuff found in this guide. So most important:

• RPM Fusion
• Flathub
• Mesa drivers
• Video codecs

Now what else would I be missing? My own research so far found the following to be useful/mandatory

• Mangohud (mainly for FPS cap)
• LACT (undervolting the GPU)
• Proton Plus I guess? (didnt quite get what exactly it offers over normal proton but thats mainly because I obviously didnt have to mess with it so far)

What else am I missing? Any help is appreciated, thanks in advance!

What the title said im looking to switch the os of my lenovo legion go pc handheld

If someone could help me with this it would be so amazing <3

Recently installed Fedora 42 KDE as my Main OS, and me and my friends were playing some Green Hell, while im playing im trying to move my discord, but that doesnt work. I can't right click, drag anything off it, etc. And with the main monitor if I have something like Spotfiy minimized, It just forbids me to click on it and makes my cursor white with an X in the middle.

This post is most likely gonna sound dumb asff, but I've already tried looking it up before, couldn't find anything. Sorry!

I have an Arc a750 graphics card. I can get 80-90 fps in MSFS 2024 on Windows 11, but only 20 fps on Linux. I am using CachyOS. Can anyone help?

proton on

Feel free to skip to here So I’m going to switch to Linux now that windows 10 is dying off. I knew I wouldn’t ever switch to windows 11 for my gaming pc but kinda expected I’d switch to steamOS but that hasn’t manifested (nvidia gpu). The problem is I always run my gpu with an undervolt (rtx 3080). Not undervolted I can see power usage up to around 300 watts while undervolted with a slight overclock (from base) it’s under 200. So we’re talking between the undervolt overclock around 2/3 the power usage for the same performance and less noise. Point is I really am looking around for a good utility to undervolt a nvidia gpu in Linux and I haven’t found anything.

Here Aka what do you use to undervolt nvidia gpus on Linux? Are there good options right now or are we in between stuff because nvidia recently changed something? Any and all suggestions are greatly appreciated!

I haven't gamed much since then. I remember vkd3d which is dx12 to vulkan translation layer, was lacking back then. And we had something like ACO compiler and stuff for AMD. I don't see nobody talking about that, is it not needed anymore? And many AAA games were not working at the first time so people was compiling wine-tkg or something in Archlinux. Is VKD3D really good now? Like DX11 and DX12?

Heyo, this is a more general graphics question and I couldn't find any answers online.

My PC has an AMD Ryzen 3700X and a RX 5700 and it's capable to play games that are around 10 years old on 1080p Ultra settings with at least 60 fps or more. However, the Ultra graphic settings don't look like Ultra settings ingame.

As an example, I recently finished Uncharted 4, all graphic settings are maxed out but everything like textures, render distances, artifacts etc. look worse than what it looks like on the PS4 version when I look at gameplay videos on YT. It could be a bad port from Playstation to PC but I've noticed it with a lot of other games that are similarly old. Like, for example, when a game from 2014 gets played on a PC with the best GPU that was available at that time on Ultra settings, it looks better than when I play it with my GPU that is more powerful on Ultra settings. I don't understand why it's like that.

Can somebody explain why?

I’m running Bazzite, Nvidia Home Theatre version

When launching PoE2, the game won’t launch. Instead of opening the game it restarts the OS entirely

However, when launched from the Desktop mode of Bazzite, it works just fine?

I’m pretty new to Linux, but if it launches in desktop, just not in Steam OS, I’m hoping this is a simple fix?

Any help would be appreciated! :)

[Edit:] Just to add more info:

I have tried various proton variations

I have set the renderer to DX12 in the production config (I had to do this so it would launch in desktop mode

I have tried using the following "gamescope -W 2560 -H 1440 -r 120 --fullscreen -e -- %command%". In the launch options
