adding a windows steam library
Alright, here is the deal and the number 1 reason i haven't started maining Linux yet.
I'm using Fedora 42. Steam RPM because sources told me to use it instead of flatpak.
I have mounted the steam library drive on start up using GNOME disks. the drive format is ntfs. which isn't encouraged but works? Fedora can read ntfs just fine by default
and steam can't add a new hard drive with the existing steam library which i installed using windows. I'm not that enthusiastic on either redownload 500GB of games or having two identical libraries.
every time i try to google a solution i get different results due to different linux distros + steam RPM or flatpak. I'm a Linux noobie so I'm at my wits end here.
I know it is possible but i just don't know how to do it. any suggestions?
Steam doesn't tell me anything when i try to add a new library. it just doesn't do anything at all :S nothing promps up or anything. just shows what was there already like it forgot what it was doing
Thanks for reading this and for any help.

WOW troubles
I have wow installed through steam using basically any version of proton. Sometimes I get a steady fps that feels fine and sometimes it feels really jittery (It skips but I dont know how to describe it). So I got mangohud running and it shows this
Is it normal for the timing to be at 5ms and jump to 31ms like that consitently?
Because in the lobby running 60 it looks like this and that seems more normal to me.
It just feels awkward to play and I don't really know what the problem is.

After latest update, elden ring instantly crashes on fedora linux
I’m not sure which update exactly broke it, but after 100h of seamless play elden ring now loads the “initializing…” screen, followed by a white screen and a crash with no report. I tried proton 9, 10, and ge-proton9, and a few launch options. Does anyone know what can cause such a crash and how to fix it? OS: Fedora 42 Workstation Edition Kernel: 6.14.11 DE: gnome 48 CPU: Intel i7-8850H (12) GPU 1: Intel Coffeelake-H GT2 GPU 2: NVIDIA Quadro P3200 Mobile

The Last of Us Part II is not working on linux
Specs: i5-10400, Nvidia GTX 1650, 32gb RAM, OS Bazzite 42
Before I start, I'd like to avoid answering some people who will say that my PC can't run The Last of Us Part II or Part I because it's too slow. On Windows it runs smoothly, with some fluctuations, of course, but it works and is playable (between 30 and 75 fps).
Anyway. I changed my OS to Bazzite because I heard it's good for games. I installed The Last of Us Part II via Steam, but I ran into a series of problems. I can't play it at all.
The problem isn't Steam, I can play other Steam games.
I've started to see differences between Steam's compatibility modes, but nothing that actually changes the 5~10fps slowdown (some have this frame rate in the main menu and others with this frame rate in gameplay).
The compatibility modes I used are: Proton Hotfix, Proton Experimental, Proton 9.0-4, Proton 8.0-5, Proton 10.0-1 (beta) and GE Proton 10-4.
I've tried Wine, but since I'm a layman, I couldn't find it at all. I tried searching on the internet and on ChatGPT, but nothing.
A long time ago, I managed to get The Last of Us Part I to work on Linux Mint, but after updating it, it stopped working and I've never been able to do it again, and I don't remember how I managed to play it on it.
I'm here asking for help, because The Last of Us Part II is my favorite game, I've been having this problem for a long time and I really want to stop using Windows 10, I don't want to have to dual boot just to play The Last of Us.

You Asked for More Strategy – We Gave You 3 Dice and a Weapon System, Please tell me how it feels now !
Hey everyone,
I'm the dev behind Ludaro, a weird little roguelike based on Ludo that we’ve been building for a while. A while back we released the first demo, and honestly... the feedback was brutal. But fair.
Many of you said:
- “Feels too luck-based.”
- “There’s not much to do each turn.”
- “Where’s the strategy?”
So… we went back to the lab.
And now, I’m kinda terrified (but excited) to share what we’ve changed:
- You now roll THREE dice every turn.
- You pick one die to move your pawn… and the other two to trigger weapons – yeah, we added weapons. Not guns or swords, but dice-powered effects that do cool stuff like score points, boost multipliers, or modify tiles.
- Every turn is now a puzzle. The randomness is still there (it’s dice, after all), but now it’s about how you use it.
We’re still tweaking and tuning – which is why I’m here.
Play the new demo here
Trailer if you’re curious
If you’ve got 10–15 minutes and enjoy roguelikes like Balatro, Dicey Dungeons, or just want to see a weird spin on Ludo… I’d love to know what you think.
What’s working?
What still sucks?
Would you play this again?
Thanks for reading, and for being brutally honest last time. You helped us shape this into something way more fun.
— Amit (dev on Ludaro)

Steam Link Controller Passthrough
Hello!
I have a Linux laptop and a Linux desktop. I want to stream a game from my desktop to my laptop. I have tried both Steam and Steam Link (standalone app).
Both are installed through Flatpak.
When I connect an xbox controller to my laptop, I expect the input to be sent to the game running on my desktop. This does not happen. However, I can navigate through the Steam Big Picture mode absolutely fine with the controller and, if I test the controller in the menu, Steam does receive the inputs.
I can play games directly on my laptop/desktop with the controller attached and that works. I assume something is broken in the passthrough? Maybe drivers or permissions or something?

I have tried Debian Trixie. Here is what I think about it as a Linux gamer
Have any of you tried Debian Trixie which will soon be the new stable version of Debian?
I've had my gaming machine upgraded to this version. What I notice is that KDE has been upgraded from 5 to 6 without me seeing much difference. I also notice that Wayland still doesn't work. And that Godot still hasn't made it to version 4.
And everything is working as it should inlcuding all the games I have tested (both native and via Proton 10 beta. As you would expect from Debian.
In other words: A boring version where I can focus on playing games instead of focusing on what OS I am running

The Alters runs good with FSR and Frame Gen on a MiniPC
I have played The Alters on my Minisforum AI X1 Pro, and it runs smoothly with FSR set to quality and the Frame Generation on the medium preset. I really like the concept of this game, and it still looks good with the settings I mentioned.

A lot of native Linux games are on sales. Are you going to buy any of those? And can you recommend some of them?
Some games won't work on Linux Mint
I am on Linux Mint 22.1 and I use Steam and Bottle for Epic Store games. Most games work, however, some behave weird.
Dead Island 2 (Bottle/Epic Store): I can load into the game, interact with menus but once I try to start the campaign it
1) does play the intro trailer (black screen) and when I skip it, it
2) freezes at the character selection screen. Weirdly enough, I can see the buttons to switch between characters. Once pressed though, they dissapear and the screen freezes. But if I click where the button were I can still hear the sound of them being clicked. (The Human Resource Machine, which I also use Bottle for, works with no problem)
Borderlands 3 (Sream): the game itself works fine but when I try to invite my friend to play we both can't connect to one another. I thought this was because it is locally hosted but when playing One Armed Robber it does work to connect to one another (smiliar with other games from Steam.
Is there anything yoi suggest trying? If you need further system information to assess my situation I will happily provide them. Thanks!

Are there other games that prefer the amdvlk drivers over radv?
Doom:TDA released an update yesterday that now offers a simple benchmark tool. Because I read that the game runs better using amdvlk I wanted to test that myself and indeed that seems to the case.
Now I'm wondering. I normally use the radv driver for everything. Are there any other known games that run better with the amdvlk drivers? I imagine it has something to do with the forced ray tracing?
Results using amdvlk 2025.Q2.1

Minecraft 1.8.9 Optifine on modrinth problems
i am using Kubuntu 25.04 wayland, keyboard is Dark Project 87 Fuji (site) cz and us layout, Minecraft is launched with Modrinth, Minecraft version is 1.8.9 with Optifine and i am using laptop MSI Pulse AI 16 C1VFKG. The problem is when i will start pressing key like "w" and want to press "1" or something like that it wont work, when i will stop, then it will work again. In the chat it is working and it isnt working in inventory either. Also i cant edit JVM arguments and Enviroment Variables in Modrinth.
I did research with ai (Claude, ChatGPT) i couldnt figure it out. I tryed two other keyboards, switch layouts (to us) and it didnt work, and tryed using different lancher, didnt work. Then i tryed reinstalling Minecraft, Modrinth, Optifine but still didnt work or remove Optifine and reinstall openjdk and zulu, didnt work. I also asked on 2 communities Ask ubuntu and Modrinth discscord, but noone answered. (On the discord is second video from modrinth not working)
I am trying to solve this thing for 2 weeks, so any help would be apriciated.

How do I enable threaded optimization on Bazzite/Fedora?
I've read that you have to set __GL_THREADED_OPTIMIZATION=1 but I have yet to see a post where to do that? Is it done through terminal or something else?

RADV or AMDVLK
I have an integrated Radeon 780M (not the best but mostly playing online game at MID)
I am using AMDVLK should I switch to RADV for better fps? Does it guarantee more FPS?
In this video it seems not: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UAIzRlhvijU
And Should I also enable the aco shader compiler?
