So just today my son came to me asking about getting him Minecraft working. Turns out, yet again, some data corruption and maybe some random viruses on his PC. So I said we needed to wipe it again. We seem to have issues that need a reinstall of windows maybe every 6 months or so, some are his doing and some aren't. I made a comment off the cuff how I should force him to install Arch and then he can figure out how to be his own tech support, real quick.

To my utter astonishment, he said he would try it out if it weren't so hard. Well, me being me, I started a rundown of why I use Arch and how it was my first ever desktop distro and how it for Ed me to either learn how things work or have a broken system. He mentioned how he likes how my computer looks but wouldn't want to be forced into the terminal for just basic updates. I hit back with he could go with Kubuntu or Fedora KDE, they use the same DE I use and that it's the DE that makes the look and feel and not as much the distro.

Before I knew it, we were sitting side by side deciding on a distro that uses KDE for him. Since Kubuntu is still on Plasma 5 I said Fedora may be a good choice, or then even bazzite because it's like having a steam deck on his desk. Well, sure as my name isn't Princess Butt Stallion he picked Bazzite and I let him guide himself through the whole install process.

Two hours later he had not just an installed system but also had all the software he would normally use, 99% of it at least, and was on a discord call to his friends playing games and seemed genuinely excited.

He told me that it was actually fun installing something new and figuring out how it all worked. This is why I Love Linux so much. So yeah, my boy has Bazzite installed on his PC now and I'm just smiling to myself at the idea. Wasn't very long ago he was making fun of me for having to "make hacker code just to use your computer" so this makes me chuckle on the inside.

So yeah, as long as you can play games and use a web browser, you don't need much else.

I just figured I would share. It's not strictly gaming related but it was gaming that made this 12 year old boy finally decide enough is enough and that he had it with Windows. Bazzite was what threw me for a loop but I let him make that decision himself and since gaming was his primary concern, it seemed like that was a good place to start to him.

So yeah, fun times! 👍

Jump the Track has a great visual style and a fun looking blend of a comedy visual novel with pachinko, and now it has Linux and macOS support.

Hey there I’m pretty new to Linux gaming . I use the newest nobora os ( games work but I don’t like design of it) and I can’t connect my Xbox controller with the Microsoft dongle. I installed xone ( I think that’s the name) but if I hit „pair „ on controller and stick it won’t connect only flash. I would love to get help

Hey folks, been on Linux for 3+ years (Arch btw). Honestly never considered gaming on Linux until about a week ago. Tried some ASCII games like ninvaders, snake and pacman4console but got bored quick.

Any good games you’d recommend to try on my machine? Native, open-source, weird indie stuff, anything that runs clean.

So I’m running death stranding on heroics game launcher in Epic games and I just got the directors cut upgrade. I went into the base game, exported my current save file, and went into the directors cut edition, but it said no exported files were detected. How can I fix this?

why is this sub way more relaxed than /r/linux, where are nowadays mostly bitter fought flame wars and "I have used Linux for xx time"?

Hi everyone,

I recently purchased a Gigabyte G6 KF laptop (originally with Windows) and installed Arch Linux. The installation went smoothly, but I’m facing recurring boot issues:

First boot after install worked fine. I was able to log in and use the system.

Subsequent boots often get stuck. The system reaches the graphical target (SDDM), but then hangs indefinitely.

System logs show:

ACPI BIOS Error (bug): Could not resolve symbol [_SB.PC00.MHBRI, AE_NOT_FOUND (and similar)

INFO: task (udev-worker): ... blocked for more than 122 seconds (and up to 368 seconds)

Tainted: P DE 6.12.34-1-lts #1

Integrity: Problem loading X.509 certificate -22

SMART disk check passes. No hardware errors detected.

I’ve tried:

Updating system and drivers

Different kernel versions (mainline and LTS)

Checking graphics drivers (NVIDIA)

Checking SDDM and Xorg logs

The system sometimes boots, but often hangs at the graphical interface or during early boot. The issue seems to be related to blocked tasks and ACPI errors, but I’m not sure how to resolve it.

Question: Has anyone else experienced similar issues with Gigabyte laptops and Arch Linux? Are there known workarounds for these ACPI/blocked task errors? Should I try a different distro, or is there a way to make Arch work reliably on this hardware?

Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Let me know if you want to add more details or logs!

Ive looked online but can only find answers for slightly different models. Is there any way to get an elgato hd60 to work with Linux if I for instance wanted to record an Xbox 360 output and use my Fedora Linux PC as the display and storage for the recording?

For context, this morning I decided to set up dual-booting with Kubuntu, and I decided to test how modded Minecraft runs, however, it wouldn’t run 1.7.10, but it would run the latest version

Upon some investigation, anything before 1.17 (vanilla) crashes with error code 6 IMMEDIATELY before Minecraft can even launch anything past launches fine

All the debug terminal says is “Library initialization failed - unable to allocate file descriptor table - out of memory”

latest.log doesn’t show any errors, it’s setting up texture atlas’ and then Minecraft stops

(Sorry if this is a dumb question, I’m very new to Linux/gaming on Linux)

Thanks in advance!

Edit: forgot to mention that I’ve looked around on Google, apparently it’s an issue on windows too, but I can’t find a fix.

I found this really cute game that had a demo, and I wanted to try it for my laptop "mini cozy room", I run opensuse tumbleweed, and have tried a handful of proton versions, it runs just fine on my deck in both gaming and desktop mode, so I'm kind of stuck qwq

Just wanted to post this since this information is not really on the Internet anywhere. I was experimenting with this game and finally got it launch in a Wayland session vs XWayland. CS2 has an option to do this but no love for Left 4 Dead 2 for some reason. After scouring the net, I came across some launch options that work. However, there are a few caveats. One, this works best/only with Vulkan. In OpenGL, it will work but it performs very poorly and there are graphical bugs/glitches. Two, with Vulkan and you want to use Vsync, you will need to set the game to fullscreen, which puts it in FIFO mode, but this raises the black level (Nvidia issue?). To get the blacks correct, you will have to use Borderless but this puts it in Immediate mode which disables Vsync so you are going to have to make a choice, Vsync or Color Accuracy.

Anyway, here are the launch options below. Please let me know if you have any information that you would like to share beyond what was said above.

STEAM_COMPAT_RUNTIME_SDL2=1 SDL_VIDEODRIVER=wayland %command% -vulkan

Hi,
I am the creator of ProtonPlus and I am currently looking for another project to work on.
I would prefer to create one from scratch and not help another one since I prefer to do things by myself.
I am asking since I want to know if you guys are missing anything that you would like to have.
I don't have any idea so far, but I am open to anything gaming related preferably.
It could also be a new feature idea for ProtonPlus, but I am really looking forward to starting a new project.
That does not mean I want to stop working on ProtonPlus, it simply means I want a project that I can alternate between so that I don't burn myself out on a single project.

Hi! Been trying to get the Steam version of Chrono Trigger working, unfortunately whenever one of my external keyboards is plugged in the game always holds in the up direction, meaning that menus constantly navigate upwards and the player is stuck going up in-game. This issue does not happen whenever my external keyboard is not plugged in, allowing me to use the keyboard controls on my laptop or a controller without issue.

From what I assume, I think what's actually causing the problem is due to the fact that all my keyboards run on VIA firmware, which has some kind of "System Control" interface that gets its keyboards picked up as controllers as well. I asked around on the VIA Discord server this is apparently how media keys work, and also VIA can't remove it since it would require rebuilding firmware. I think that the weird phantom controller that appears whenever my keyboard is plugged in is what's causing the game to always hold up.

I have no actual definitive evidence that this is why, but it would explain why all my external/mechanical keyboards cause the game to act weirdly while the built in keyboard on my laptop does not. Enabling/disabling Steam input does not fix the issue. Is there any way of getting Steam or games running inside Steam to ignore my keyboard's weird phantom controller doo-hickey?

FYI, I'm running on Arch Linux, on the latest version of KDE: 6.4.1.
