I have seen several posts about this but most seem to be old or say different and was wondering if someone has a definitive answe to this. I have a PC with HDMI 2.1 out and a TV with HDMI 2.1 in. I want to hook these up and run it in 4K, 60FPS, with HDR and VRR. Is that possible on linux? If not, is there some adapter or something I can buy that will make it work? I know that linux only really supports HDMI 2.0 but everywhere I look I see different answers on wether 2.0 can handle all that.

I'm 37, with a nursing degree and my only experience with computers is basic ,essentially how to install a game and play it. My question is,is it feasible with my age and lack of experience/knowledge? Are there any cheap or events free programs I can begin to work on the basics while I gather scholarships to apply to a college. Any thought on the matter are appreciated. Thank you in advance.

I was doing research and it looks like gamescope can be installed seperately, are there any XFCE distros where I can install gamescope and have it configured to be like SteamOS?

Hiya, I'm a beginner to intermediate at Linux. I am technical enough, I use Linux Mint on my work laptop, build my own PCs and can easily download Linux and Windows onto them, and I have tried using Ubuntu for gaming about 3 years ago. Every few years I put my game saves and files on a hard drive and do a complete wipe of my pc. I am days away from upgrading from a mostly Nvidia system to AMD (before rammageddon started yay) and am due to do this. But with the new surge of Microsoft violating my privacy and putting things I don't want or care for in their OS, I was wondering if it's worth switching to gaming friendly systems like Pop!_OS or Garuda KDE. A grand majority of my games are on steam (and EA a bit) and I have used Proton/Wine mostly successfully in the past, doing all the downloading and debugging on my own. The issue I had was that I was very much a Genshin Impact player, and still am. Know I have heard that, ah, illegitimate support is there for Linux these days for that game, so that's less of a concern as it was in the past. But I have also really gotten into Wuthering Waves, and as a newer game with the same core issues I'm a bit worried about having to do debugging every time I want to play it with the current support it may have. So I want feedback from others who play those games, or are just experienced with Linux running non steam systems, and what Linux system works best for them. I've heard that Pop!_OS and Garuda KDE are best, and that Pop is more beginner friendly while Garuda has better gaming performance, but in terms and my experience and needs I'm a bit torn.

TLDR; I'm not terrible with Linux and like it, but want to play my pretty Chinese games without it being a huge pain, and need others to either reassure or warn me (and recommend a Linux system)

I know there are many problems with the Pascal series and DirectX 12 games (VKD3D), but I'm wondering if it might work well now. I have the latest driver (581.80). For example, I plan to run Assassin's Creed Valhalla.

I recently installed bazzite on to a 2tb external ssd. I have only a couple of games installed with about 1.8tb free. I am now getting cloud errors and disk write errors when I try to start steam. Chown -r fixed it temporarily, but every time I boot the issue comes back. I did add the game library to my windows boot (which probably caused the issue). Is there any way to fix this without a total reinstall?

It is a homage to the classic arcade marble games I really love (mainly Marble Madness, Gyroscope, Hamsterball and Ballance).

Hello,

I have been a vanilla Debian user for a while as well as a steam deck enjoyer.

I have a gaming pc that’s all AMD and compatible with steam OS.

I wonder the advantages of running steam OS vs steam on Debian, from a gaming standpoint. Would the performance be better on steam OS?

SteamOS is attractive since a lot of solutions are tailored to it, including emudeck and others.

Thanks for any advice!

Im back at Linux, in other times I used windows because I needed it for work and games and now Linux seems to work everything or almost everything…

I currently use the newer version of POP Linux

Soo…

Which games should I play to test it? Also what changes should I go with to make more pretty and mine?

Cheers.

Hi r/linux_gaming.

I’ve been posting updates here about Austraoxe, my first-person puzzle game built in Unreal Engine 5. The Situation:

As a solo programmer, I have the core mechanics and physics working. However, to hit the high visual and atmospheric fidelity I’m aiming for (think Portal 2 meets Severance), I need specialists.

Since I recently had to move my development environment to Windows for stability, I am specifically looking for teammates who use Linux daily. I want to ensure our Native build is tested constantly on real hardware.

The Roles Open:

1- 3D Environment Artist: You excel at 'industrial decay.' We need that sterile-but-grimy lab aesthetic. (Blender/Maya -> UE5).

2- Level Designer: You understand puzzle pacing and leading the player with lighting.

3- Sound Designer: The game relies heavily on atmosphere. I need someone to create the ambient hums, footsteps, and mechanical crunches that make the facility feel alive.

The Deal:

This is a Revenue Share project. We build it, we ship it, we split the profit.

If you want to help build a high-quality Linux-native game, please DM me or drop a comment with your portfolio/previous work.
