Hey !

I have freshly installed CachyOS on my battlestation to start gaming on Linux. I had already installed it on an old laptop to get used to KDE plasma etc... everything good so far !

However, i have some weird slow moments and quick freezes that should happen during basic office task (open settings, open steam, transfer files etc...). I didnt try gaming so far. It's also a bit slow to boot, even if it got better after some reboots.

I have installed on a freshly installed Curcial P310 SSD 2To fully dedicated to Linux. I have installed gaming packages, new drivers etc...

My specs are :

• CPU : AMD Ryzen 5 7600X
• GPU : AMD Radeon RX 9070
• MB : MSI B650 Tomahawk
• RAM : Corsair Vengeance 32Gb DDR5

Also, it seems a bit slow to download and/or install games (Maybe its my impression, its not a wifi issue as i have 200Mb/s download on Win10). Maybe i missed some crucial tweaks or drivers ? Thanks a lot for your help :)

Hi everyone!

I’ve seen several people struggling to run Disco Elysium on older Linux hardware — but my case is a bit different. I actually managed to get the game running, though I’m facing a weird issue related to highlighting interactive objects.

In Disco Elysium, when you press TAB or right mouse button, the game normally highlights interactable objects (e.g., outlines them). But on my setup, nothing gets highlighted.

I’ve learned that this effect is likely part of post-processing / outline rendering — which seems to be broken or disabled for me.

I found a file:
Settings.json at:
SteamLibrary/steamapps/compatdata/632470/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/AppData/LocalLow/SUN Studio/Disco Elysium/Settings/

There’s a line:
"highlightToggle": false
Changing it to true doesn't help — it resets to false every time the game starts.

Now the game only launches if I run:
MESA_LOADER_DRIVER_OVERRIDE=crocus steam steam://rungameid/632470 (Previously, it worked even with i965, but now that fails) with PROTON_USE_WINED3D=1 %command% in steam, but post-processing didn’t work.

My system info:
OS: Manjaro Linux (64-bit)

Kernel: 6.12.19-1-MANJARO

CPU: Intel Core i3-3110M @ 2.40GHz

GPU: Intel HD 4000 (IVB GT2)

GPU Driver: Mesa 25.0.1-arch1.2

RAM: 8 GB

Proton Version: UMU Proton, tried GE

Any help would be super appreciated — I’ve come this far and would love to fix this last piece. Thank you in advance! :3

No CAP_SYS_NICE, falling back to regular-priority compute and threads.
Performance will be affected.

It appears too frequently, I always need to do:

sudo setcap 'CAP_SYS_NICE=eip' $(which gamescope)

It is really annoying!

I just moved into a new (to me) home and am planning on turning the downstairs basement into a theater room. I’m in the middle of research now, and I came across YouTube videos about bazzite and its ability to run steam, old school emulators, and streaming apps. To me that sounds like a simple solution to run everything from one device instead of buying multiple things to switch between. I’ve never ran a Linux OS before and was wondering your experience with it. Also, will the streaming apps be compatible with an Atmos receiver from a pc? Thanks for any input!!

My question is pretty much the title, IIRC tekken 8 had some issues with crossplay until you edited the /etc/hosts file and was wondering if there were any issues with crossplay on SF6 since I'm thinking about buying it.

I finally got rid of windows on my daily drivers and I don't really want to dual boot just for a few games, any recommendation are appreciated!
