Hi, I installed expedition 33 on my Linux, I have actually 4 fps in cutscene and like 15 fps in menu. I don't know why, does anyone have this problem? Can it be because it doesn't run on my graphic card?

Config : AMD 7950x AMD 5700xt 32Go ram Arch Linux with latest AMD drivers Tested on Hyprland (Wayland) and openbox (x11)

A few days ago I recorded a gameplay session with some friends, but when I tried to export the video to DaVinci Resolve, it wouldn’t play. I’m not sure if the issue is with the video itself or with the program. I ran some tests with different settings and none of them played properly.

For those who don’t know the issue: DaVinci Resolve on Linux doesn’t support H.264, H.265, or AAC codecs, so recording in standard .mp4 format won’t work if you want to edit in DaVinci Resolve. And I don’t want to switch to another editor since I’m already used to this one.

Any advice?

What distro would you recommend? W11 isn't sustainable for me anymore

I've heard Linux is bannable by EULA, how true is that?

The prompt belongs to easy-anti cheat.

Im using arch, Hyprland , wayland.

I've been trying for 2 days and have no more ideas what to try.

I have seen that games don't seem to run when they are installed on an NTFS partition. I am trying to see if that is the case but, since I used gnome disks to autoboot my ntfs drives I have no idea how to edit the /etc/fstab because I see that I am supposed to have something like this:
UUID=38CE9483CE943AD8 /media/gamedisk ntfs uid=1000,gid=1000,rw,user,exec,umask=000 0 0

While I have this in fstab:
/dev/disk/by-uuid/3E1CDC4B1CDC0037 /mnt/winmaindisk auto nosuid, nodev, nofail,x-gvfs-show 0 0

/dev/disk/by-uuid/AEAC7364AC73264D /mnt/workdrive auto x-gvfs-show 0 0

How should I edit it? And can I use Gnome Disks instead of the command line? (I know it might be easier that way, just couldn't find any way to change this other than digging around in fstab and not everyone might be comfortable with doing that right away)

There's nothing I want more than to just nuke windows and go full Linux.. I've tried it but it didn't work out, why? Well because I like playing star citizen, and getting that game to work on Linux is a pain in the a$$, additionally, I use tobii eye tracker 5 which doesn't work with linux.. but oh boy if it did, I'd switch immediately..

So if anyone knows of a distro great for gaming (specifically Star Citizen) that supports tobii eye tracker 5.. (and hosas), please let me know..

I'm trying to bring down power usage in idle with this card, but it is not effective on Linux. I enabled ASPM in UEFI, and after configuring power saving in Windows, I can see ~10W drop in idle. However I can't reproduce this in Linux. After some digging I found that I should change /sys/module/pcie_aspm/parameters/policy parameter. I changed it to powersave, I did that via kernel cmd line parameter, just to be sure that it is enabled early. And I can confirm that after boot it is set:

~ cat /sys/module/pcie_aspm/parameters/policy default performance [powersave] powersupersave

But power draw didn't change and is still at ~38W when idling. If I try to enable powersupersave I lose display, and later I found following error in journal:

Apr 29 19:21:42 kad-pc kernel: pcieport 0000:07:01.0: Unable to change power state from D3cold to D0, device inaccessible Apr 29 19:21:42 kad-pc kernel: pcieport 0000:07:04.0: Unable to change power state from D3cold to D0, device inaccessible

Does anyone know, what else could I try?

So to get the questions out of the way.
I've tried every version of Proton, my temps are all fine, as of right now only game I have this issue on is Overwatch 2.

Here's my hardware

CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 5700X
GPU: Sapphire Radeon RX 7700 XT (12 GB VRAM)
RAM: 32 GB DDR4 (running at 2933 MHz)

Motherboard: ASUS ROG STRIX B450-F GAMING

I got the display stats on in Overwatch 2, at first the game seems to play fine but then I see VRam spike up to max and it feels like I'm playing through powerpoint, at least the frames are consistent just really low, feels like around 10.
Overwatch is on the same drive as Steam, I'm not using the flatpack version of Steam.

Any way to fix this?
Prefer not to have to restart my game after 1 or 2 matches..

Hi, i'm new to Linux, i'm using Mint. I installed Steam today and none of my games were running, apparently its because they were in my second SSD, i have 1 M.2 Nvme where i keep the OS and programs, and 1 SATA where i keep my games and some other stuff, but the games only run if they're installed in my M.2. Why? Also why does the system treat the SATA SSD as an external drive?

So, I installed the game through Ubisoft connect, Proton DB says it can be played, but I always get kicked from the lobbies.

Any advice?

Hi all,

I've been playing Halo Infinite for the last couple months with zero issues. Recently I've noticed that the game starts and seems to hang when trying to authenticate with the back end services. Eventually it lets me in, but I'm in "Offline" mode. I had been running the game with Proton Experimental with zero issues.

Note: I can still play custom games (by myself) without any issues.

Things I've tried:

• Completely removing the prefix. This forces me to login using my MS account again, which appears to partially work (it downloads my controller config, etc.) but just doesn't connect to the Infinite services
• Switching to Proton 9.0-4
• Switching to Proton-GE-27

343 did recently perform some backend service updates that might be causing the issue. Has anyone else run into problems. I checked the Proton Github issue tracker - nobody has posted about it there, etc. I also checked ProtonDB, and the latest entry from a week ago seems to indicate that everything is working fine.

Any advice/thoughts would be appreciated!
