So I'm on the hunt for the best 4k gaming monitor but there are SOO many options out there and I'm lowkey lost. Can experts please give any reccs or advices?

Should I go for a 32 inch 4K monitor or is a 27" fine? Alsoo, is HDR really a game changer? what affect does it have on the gaming performance?

pleasee help out!

Hi I purchased Assassin's Creed: Origins via Ubisoft Connect and it was installed by lutris installer, but it gets stuck on the warning screen. Log:

I tried playing devil may cry on with windows and my Linux distro. The moment I open a browser in the background the performance of the game absolutely tanks and becomes unplayable while in windows, I was playing the game at the same exact settings maybe even lower on Linux while having 2 windows of my browser open while copying a backup of the game files to my pendrive and the performance drop want even noticable. I didn't exactly take benchmarks because I assumed that my system just couldn't run the game until I switched to windows for another reason and noticed this. I use proton GE and Arch btw.

a game i have (flight simulator x) crashes when i select a specific addon, but the logs that PROTON_LOG=1 sends don't have any useful info.

on windows, fsx errors can be easily debugged because they always leave event logs, but i don't know where these are on linux also, i've already confirmed that the crash isn't caused by anything having to do with my wine/proton config; it's most likely some dll causing errors

Title. It's saying it's only available on windows and max, which is very odd because it installs with no issues on my steam deck. I'm assuming there's some sort of setting I need to check to get around this but I can't find it anywhere. Running Nobara Linux 41 KDE Plasma Version 6.3.3, and GE-Proton9-27

Linux Mint using Heroic launcher. I've been unable to join any cross play lobbies. Singleplayer works fine. I can see my friends lobbies, but when I try to join, or if someone tries to join mine it just goes to a loading screen that's stuck at 0%. I'm using Heroic Launcher with Proton GE. I'm fairly new to Linux, but pretty technical.

Rather simple question, to see if other people have tried playing R6S with Lutris.

I'm running Manjaro, and will be avoiding Win11 like the plague... but still miss siege once in a while....
my question is: has anyone been banned from siege while using Lutris? If not, how long have you been using it?

I am on fedora 42 and with the 9070 XT. Steam rpm is really off for some reason. It works but if I close it and try to open it again it completely flips out. What happens is it tries to launch then crashed , then tries to launch then crashed … I have no idea what to do ? Or what even is the issue. I am a newb at Linux so please go easy on me. The only times that it worked well was when I tried to launch it from the terminal. But after I closed it and tried to launch it from the terminal nothing happened and then on my dock it would just try again and again and again to open it but would crash within a second. The only fix was to do a restart

Every few posts I see on here, there is someone in the comments disparaging mint for having older packages. Is that really an issue or is it just a matter of subjective taste?

I've tried using fedora workstation and kde in the past but they've always been buggy for me. Could be because I'm using a 3060. Mint has always been relatively solid for me with the exception of having older stuff.

I have an unconventional setup. My S.O. and I have our computers in the same room, but we wanted to play some roomscale co-op. The budget solution (with a little elbow grease) was to use a 50ft active usb repeater and a 50 ft DP cable running from the office to the front room. Once everything was setup I ran into problems that I think may be fairly common.

My hope is that this post will help those with similar issues to find a fix.

When I started up steam vr, I was getting the following symptoms:

• headset shows on the start screen (as do the base stations and controlers if I connect them)
• there is a popup above the steamvr window that says 'Failed to connect to headset display' with error code '(496).
• a blank black window pops up and refuses to close
• the 'displays' window on the kde settings application showed a small 640x480 'unknown' display (the headset)

The first thing I did of course was double check all of my connections, which were physically fine. All cables were seated properly and I could see the usb with lsusb -t (lists the connected usb devices in a tree format so you can see how things are connected).

One thing I didn't know how to check was the Display Port connection quality (which ended up being the issue). I was able to check this with sudo dmesg and look for failures. I was getting the following message any time I plugged in the headset's DP cable: [12563.709881] amdgpu 0000:05:00.0: [drm] REG_WAIT timeout 1us * 100 tries - dcn32_program_compbuf_size line:138 [12619.750672] amdgpu 0000:05:00.0: [drm] *ERROR* No EDID read. [12620.579032] amdgpu 0000:05:00.0: [drm] enabling link 2 failed: 15 If you have this message, it means that your machine can't identify the headset as a headset on the display port side of things, which is required by steam to work. Apparently this is usually caused by bad cables or by old cables (as EDID is a newer feature of display port). I moved the headset closer to the computer and plugged it in directly, and found success.

I have ordered a fiber optic display port cable that supports edid, so hopefully that allows me to go back to the old setup with the longer cable.

Hope this helps to find or eliminate possibilities for your issue!

I try not to ask for help but I'm stuck I grabbed Doom 2016 on GOG. I use lutris to run my GOG games. I am on Arch/plasma/ all AMD. Kernel is 6.14.2, mesa 25.0.3, vulkan. I typically use system wine (10.5) but tried umu. I've reinstalled Doom 2016. Ive also used the argument "+r_renderAPI 1" but to no avail. Could anyone point me in the right direction? Please and thank you.

my pc is getting outdated and ive been thinking about building an AMD Linux pc. ive read a bit and have some questions about how i should set up the drives. heres how i think it would look:

SSD1 - Nobara

SSD2 - games and programs

HDD - mass storage

SSD3 - DualBoot Windows(because of VR)

Q1: Linux is smaller and lighter than windows, does that mean i could strike SSD2 off the list to save on buying 3 ssd's or is it still recommended to have a separate drive for the OS?

Q2: SSD2 and HDD would be formatted for Linux but could Windows still see them and potentially mess with them or would they be invisible/untouchable?

Q3: i have an external HDD and i dont know what it is formatted as. Would it be impossible to transfer the files if it is in NTFS or something or is it just games/programs that have trouble running from a Windows compatible file system?
