Hi, I recently came across a game that's made with WPE and I can't get it to run on my arch Linux. I've tried both regular wine and all Proton versions steam makes available. In both cases it doesn't Show anything of the game and doesn't throw an error.

I've tried searching around, but all I could find Was about compiling the WPE game for Linux, not launching a Compiler game. Any Tips on what else I could try?

So I used to have some issues with installing games on my second drive, after a LONG time of searching, I discovered the fix, and figured out that i had discovered it earlier but I ignored it as I thought it would be outdated, So TO THE FIX!

So basically I had installed steam off of the software store built into gnome, I installed the flatpak and that would be fine if it wasn't for wanting to install onto my second drive, turns out the flatpak version is super messed up for some reason in multiple ways, anyway, for those tryna fix this ima skip this whole part of why its messed up,

Step 1: Delete your flatpak version of Steam

Step 2: Visit Steam and Download Steam's Deb file (or whatever version you need)

Step 3: Right Click the Deb File and select "Open With" then "Software" (or whatever you use to install apps)

Step 4: Your done!

(Notes): This error was on Ubuntu Linux but I believe it should work for most distro's still.

(Other error that may come)

When trying to open Steam from the website it said "Couldn't set up Steam data - please contact technical support"

Step 1: I believe that this was coming from problems with the installation, from another forum I scraped this together, simply do commands in the terminal

mv ~/.steam/steam/* ~/.local/share/Steam/

rmdir ~/.steam/steam

ln -s ../.local/share/Steam ~/.steam/steam

rm -rf ~/.steam/bin

Step 2: It may prompt you to update steam, if it does then follow the steps it tells you to do, if it doesnt attempt to start it again and it should.

Hope this fixed it for you guys! Use the comment section to get help

I'm dumb and dunno how to fix stuff and used forums like this one I just made to make this so hopefully someone more advanced than me can help yall! :D

My system generally performs much better on Wayland than Xorg and was hoping I could fully move away from it, but I still stream on Discord sometimes. Xorg works fine streaming applications, but the button to enable audio for streaming on Wayland does nothing currently. Is there a package or something I'm missing? I'm using Pipewire, if it makes a difference.

[My Specs]
CPU: Ryzen 5 3600x
RAM: 64GB 3200 DDR4
GPU: RX 7600 8GB
SO: Arch Linux

I wanted to play the game again on Steam for a New Game+ Journey, I love this game but it stutters A LOT.
I've tried Proton Experimental, GE-Proton and DXVK Gplasync - https://gitlab.com/Ph42oN/dxvk-gplasync with RADV_PERFTEST=gpl DXVK_ASYNC=1 %command% and the game stutters all the time on each one.

Does anyone know a trick or tip to fix this? Or do I really have to play with Stuttering until the Shader Cache is compiled? Thanks

Hello, I need some help for gaming on Linux mint...

Most games I play are impaired with serious lag and stuttering. I don't think its my hardware, some games that I had installed have very low requirements.

I obviously have Lutris downloaded, as well as Wine 10.0

Here is some general information:

OS: Linux Mint 22 x86_64

Kernel: 6.8.0-52-generic

Shell: bash 5.2.21

DE: Cinnamon 6.2.9

CPU: Intel i7-8750H (12) @ 4.100GHz

GPU: Intel CoffeeLake-H GT2 [UHD Gra

GPU: NVIDIA GeForce FTX 1060 Mobile

Memory: 3259MiB / 15691MiB

Please let me know if any other information is needed.

I am using 570 for my NVIDIA drivers.

Please help, if I don't game soon I might have to touch grass again.

I've had very little issues with the jump other than Discord being shitty

i've tried to play the voidwrought and stonemachia demo and all i get is "An error occurred while launching this game: Compatibility tool failed" same issue with a random demo i found for a game called Erinye, tried with proton hotfix, experimental, 9.0-4 and 8.0-5, same issue every time, all my other titles still work fine

Edit: forgot to mention, im on linux mint 22

I need help I feel like Ive tried everything. Ive been googling all day and trying a bunch of peoples fixes but so far no luck. Has anyone been able to fix this? Ive tried force relative (games doesnt launch) and no cursor confine (it just gets stuck in the corner of the screen and cant move).

Hello,

I have been looking for and using Linux Distros for gaming performance for quite some time. I've used Arch, Manjaro, EndeavourOS, and Debian, but none have quite convinced me.

I love their customisable environments and all that comes with their optimisation, but many times, when playing titles like Minecraft or games from Steam and Epic Games, I encounter several issues, specially with Wine/Proton. That’s not to mention the occasional corruptions caused by some rather unstable packages. Worst of all, the Linux kernel is not compatible with Easy Anti-Cheat, preventing me from playing some games I really enjoy.

Do you think there is a suitable Distro for me?

Thank you very much in advance.

Just a baby update this time

HOTFIX:

• update Dragon Age Inquisition xinput patch introduced in GE-Proton9-11 to fix a regression that caused performance issue in Black Desert Online and possibly other games: doitsujin/dxvk#4676 (thanks loathingKernel and Blisto)

I have secure boot off, fast boot off, followed the video tutorial to dual boot bazzite and windows and can't get it to find the bazzite boot drive. I have the separate efi and made a separate partition for bazzite but every time after installing, it just boots to windows and my bios has no option for a bazzite boot.

Hi,

So I'm having this issue - and I have no idea where to begin.
I've posted it on Discord, but I'll post here in case anyone know anything regarding the issue, or can pinpoint it for me in the errorlog - as I have little to no clue where to look / how to find it.

First things first; Setup:

* OS: Nobara Linux 41 (KDE Plasma) x86_64
* Kernel: Linux 6.13.2-200.nobara.fc41.x86_64
* Display (34C801): 3440x1440 @ 144 Hz in 34" [External]
* DE: KDE Plasma 6.2.5
* CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D (16) @ 5.27 GHz
* GPU: AMD Radeon RX 7800 XT [Discrete]
* RAM: Kingston FURY Beast RGB DDR5 6000MHz 32GB
* MOBO: Gigabyte X670 GAMING X AX V2

So far, I've mainly played CS2 with GE-Proton9-23 and 24.
After 15 minutes to 3 hours the system freeze for a bit (sound is still up on Discord), then everything goes black on the monitors, everything seems to reset/close and start up again.

The system doesn't reboot, but seemingly ever / a lot of processes restart, and when the system is back up after ~1 minute, no apps is running - as if I've just rebooted the system.

I'm posting this before having done a thorough troubleshoot, as I've yet to try Proton Experimental - nor have I tested other games properly.

But in hopes that anyone have experienced anything similar, and have the fix - here it is:

https://paste.gloriouseggroll.tv/?acb510c12fa6d3fb#1GjLq35wZDH796rR5gZpEmDhFgJzfz7cE4gCHejb71h

The file that is attached is the first time it happened after installing Nobara from scratch, and the text is after trying a few different 'fixes'.

I'd like to run this for myself (offline) https://github.com/DayZLegacyDev/DayZ-Legacy-Launcher just to relive the very early days to see how the map has changed and to make me appreciate the changes.

ive played dayz on pop_os for the last 5 years just using GE Proton builds. Anyone know how to set this up and running on Linux?

I've seen similar questions asked in the past, but I haven't seen a solution yet. Basically, whenever I launch the game, the cursor isn't glued to the centre of the window, instead it can leave the game window, letting the ingame camera stuck. I'm pretty sure that if I get it to the centre it then sticks, but it's very inconsistent. Is there a way to fix this? I'm using Prism Launcher on Fedora 41, with an NVidia RTX 2060 on a laptop

So I know this is probably a frequently asked question around here but I got myself a PC with an NVIDIA RTX 3080 and an Intel I5 12th cpu I really have liked using Linux in the past and checked out the proton db website for comparability Now I really don't like windows and how much space it takes on my PC also I really enjoy Linux but my and my friends play a ton of online games together not any that use kernel level anticheats (We mostly play counter strike 2) which I know is nativey supported and we started marvel Rivals which I've heard works I'm a little worried about switching cause I'm just worried that not everything will work all the time I know the obvious awnser here is probably just suck it up and stick with windows but does anyone know of any problems just running games on Linux (I usually play single player games just finished half life 2 and playing through 1 now)

'm experiencing problems playing wow classic on linux. Been playing wow on linux for 2 months now and had some minor problems that i was able to solve. But since yesterday my game has been unplayable at times. I would get disconnected from wow and then have problems logging in and staying logged in. it would take me 5-10 minutes to actually get inside the game again, only to be disconnected in less than a minute. This cycle continued for over 2 hours and then fixed itself. I tried rebooting, resetting my router, clearing cache, terminal commands like "sudo sysctl net.ipv4.ip_default_ttl=128" with no luck. Only solution i did not try was use a VPN. I know its a niche question since not many play on linux but would love to hear a solution for this apart from running it on windows :D.

Quiero instalar nobara en mi PC, alguien que me guía como hacerlo. Me sale error al final.
