Has anyone used Port Proton by linux-gaming? I'm a bit weary of it though it looks promising so I was curious if anyone had used it and if it was safe.

CS2 starts stuttering a while after I have played for a while. It stutters so hard that I can't play anymore. I have to force quit and then start game again. This is especially annoying when I am playing competitive. I risk abandonment and temporary ban.

I am running Manjaro KDE, and always keep it up to date.

Launch options are gamemoderun %command%. I have same experience with or without gamemode and with or without -vulkan as well.

While the stuttering happens, I don't see anything obvious like high cpu usage in system monitor.

Appreciate your help

So I am starting to see a flaw in buying a gpu day one, as a linux user lol. This is the third post I have made regarding issues with this card.

I made a post earlier about Marvel Rivals loading with a "Your system doesn't support DirectX 12" message, and couldn't find a solution other than just waiting.

I decided to test out some other games because I want to compare this card to my old 6600 XT. I have tried The Finals, Baldur's Gate 3, and New World. The Finals will get stuck on a loading screen before completely crashing my pc. Both Baldur's Gate 3 and New World will load a quarter of the way then freeze. I have to manually end task on both to get them to close.

A lot of the solutions that people suggested in my last post included updating Mesa, updating the kernel version, and manually downloading the amdgpu drivers. None of these solutions worked. I even clean installed a new OS with no luck.

Vulkan is working, mesa is up-to-date, kernel is up-to-date, none of the proton layers change anything, launch options do nothing. The only thing that I have not been able to try is installing the linux-firmware.git file that was recommended in this video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LhukXbchZbw&t=154s). I have the tar.gz file on my system and I was able to extract it, but past that I haven't been able to make it far with it. I have never dealt with compiling firmware, so I have been trying to find tutorials or help online, but none of it has been helpful. If this IS what I have to do to get it working, please tell me how to do it or direct me to a source that can tell me how to do.

PC SPECS

OS: Fedora 42

Kernel: 6.14.0-0.rc3.29.fc42.x86_64 (64-bit)

Graphics: Wayland

Mesa: 25.0.0

CPU: Ryzen 7 5800X

RAM: 32gb

GPU: XFX RX 9070

Hi,

My current gaming PC (Hades Canyon with 3060ti eGPU) with Win11 (I hate Win11 with a passion now), I pretty much only use Steam and I play Helldivers 2 most of the time (I've been using Linux for home servers for quite a while though).

I'm building a new computer and I installed NixOS 24.11 for the first time today and updated the kernel to 6.13. I haven't installed the GUI as I'm waiting for my new GPU to arrive on Monday, the system is a TRX40D8-2N2T, Threadripper 3960X, 9070 XT and LG OLED TV (I also ordered the Cable Matters 8K DisplayPort 1.4 to HDMI 2.1 Cable).

I don't have super high gaming expectations, I'm not competitive, I would like Helldivers 2 to work well and look great, I don't mind tinkering to get stuff to work.

So I think I want to install:

• hyprland (HDR: https://github.com/hyprwm/Hyprland/pull/8715)
• umu-launcher
• proton
• mesa 25 (I can see 25.0.1 in unstable, need to figure out how to add that)

So I would really appreciate some advice, does this setup make sense, what am I missing, anyone running something similar, got any configuration.nix examples?

Thanks!

Since people have been asking for this.

flatpak install flathub io.github.ryubing.Ryujinx mkdir -p ~/.local/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/apps wget "https://gist.githubusercontent.com/Arcitec/319050bf44fa3ba7c0e001f3b3a62eee/raw/7d89c3697962ff854a5a03c722fe3398dafce4d9/ryujinx.svg" -O ~/.local/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/apps/io.github.ryubing.Ryujinx.svg touch --no-create ~/.local/share/icons/hicolor # GNOME Only: gtk-update-icon-cache -f -t ~/.local/share/icons/hicolor

Then wait, it may take a few minutes for the desktop environment to detect the change. Opening GNOME Activities Overview and searching for Ryujinx may speed up its detection of the change. Sometimes it still remains cached, but you can force a binary re-read with this:

xdg-open ~/.local/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/apps/io.github.ryubing.Ryujinx.svg

Happy gaming!

Recently finally got around to playing Fallout 4. Modding has gone surprisingly smoothly. The only issues is that some mod items are invisible, for some reason. It's only from mods that add additional folders to "Data", but some that do add folders do work.

First, I thought it had to do with case sensitivity, but no renaming I tried worked. I finally installed Mod Organizer 2 and reinstalled all mods, with the same result.

The mods I tried that don't work are Lucy's Vault-Tech Backpack, Display Marker, and Wearable Backpacks.
Repairable Sanctuary also adds folders but seems to work fine.

From what I can tell, no other users on Nexus encountered the same problem, so I suspect it's a Linux issue. Has anyone encountered this problem before?
Or, if not, would anyone be willing to try one of those mods on their Linux system to see if they encounter the same problem? The Vault-Tech Backpack would probably be the easiest. After install, it should spawn in the blue shack outside Vault 111. You could just fast-travel there and see if it spawned. I would be much obliged.

I'm running ubuntu on a laptop with Chiaki. I've setup ps5 remote play and for the most part everything seems to connect. For some reason though I'm getting no audio. Audio output device is currently set to auto, but I've tried setting each channel manually in case auto wasn't working, but still nothing. The audio buffer size option is greyed out. Not much I have access to from what I can tell.

Audio itself outside of Chiaki works works without issue.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

So I've got a PS5 controller detected by Ubuntu via bluetooth or usb. AntiMicroX detects all the keys on the ps5 controller.

I found one article (https://gist.github.com/zerkz/6987e322882851d47b89ecd84dbc5b0f) that mentioned mapping keys to the keyboard, but it didn't seem to mention how that made the controller worked with Chiaki.

So I'm running an laptop with Ubuntu. I've installed Chiaki and setup Remote Play w/ my PS5. Next I'm trying to get my PS5 controller to work with Chiaki. From what I can see Ubuntu has picked up the controller. I'm stuck on getting Chiaki to use the controller.

Advice appreciated.

I use to play Skyrim a long time ago, but my PC was never really good enough to use many mods. Anyways, I'd like to get into Skyrim again and use some mods on it. The first thing I've been trying to do (with minimal success) is to use either ENB, Community Shaders or ReShade. I'm using Heroic Game Launcher, but I'm not tied to it. ENB only kind of works (it gives me a wait/force close option and I just have to click wait til it loads. Kinda annoying) community shaders crashes my game immediately and so does ReShade.

Are there any guides or tricks you guys use to get Community Shaders and ReShade working? Any help would be awesome.

Thanks!

On the home screen, the entire screen is black. The same is the case with the background behind the word “Victory” - it is black. How can I fix it?

My software:

- Fedora Workstation 41 (all the latest packages)

- Steam (stable client, version 1738026274) in Flatpak

- Proton Hotfix (doesn't work on other versions either)

- No custom command arguments

HI! I'm being kicked from some servers due to lack of the ping. I did research about no ping and linux bf4 gaming and found a recommendation to set this up in the terminal:
sudo setcap cap_net_raw=epi /bin/wine-preloader
sudo setcap cap_net_raw=epi /bin/wine64-preloader
sudo setcap cap_net_raw=epi /bin/wineserver

My ea app runs in Lutris so I adapted those commands for the Lutris runner, but my ping still hasn't returned:
sudo setcap cap_net_raw=epi /home/user/.var/app/net.lutris.Lutris/data/lutris/runners/proton/ge-proton/files/bin/wine-preloader
sudo setcap cap_net_raw=epi /home/user/.var/app/net.lutris.Lutris/data/lutris/runners/proton/ge-proton/files/bin/wine64-preloader
sudo setcap cap_net_raw=epi /home/user/.var/app/net.lutris.Lutris/data/lutris/runners/proton/ge-proton/files/bin/wineserver

I tried switching to Wine GE, Proton Experimental, etc. and also changing cap_net_raw for them, but nothing worked.
What am I missing?

Thanks for your time and help!

When I run games on Proton, I rarely get more than a few frames per second, even while the launch credits are playing. In-game menus are borderline unusable because the mouse cursor constantly stutters. This isn't limited to the game; if I alt-tab to another window, the mouse is still difficult to use. Minimizing the game helps somewhat, with the cursor alternating between working normally and stuttering.

My computer has an AMD Threadripper CPU and RTX 2070 graphics card, running DraugerOS (based on Ubuntu). I've tried launching with multiple versions of Proton, including ProtonGE9-25, but that hasn't had a major impact. The games I've tried have all been rated as functional on ProtonDB.

I'm fairly new to Linux, and I have no idea what might be wrong.

Does anyone have dawntrail benchmark numbers for the 9080 XT with proton/wine? I was watching the Gamer Nexus video on this card and xiv was a weird outlier performance wise under windows and was wondering if the pattern repeated itself under linux. If anyone owns this card and could run the benchmark that'd be great so I can compare to the gpu I have currently. Mostly making this post since xiv is the main game I play on my computer and wanted to make sure performance would be about on par with my 4080 super that I have now (really thinking about jumping to AMD now that I only really use Linux and could get a decent amount for my 4080 lol)
