Yo Skyrim fans, what's up with ENB on Linux? It keeps crashing my Skyrim, either before the game even loads, or less than a minute after it loads (but before I can even start a game).

I'm testing with just ENB and nothing else, to eliminate other culprits. I downloaded it from the site and followed the instructions (copied the files into a clean Skyrim, changed the .ini to enable LinuxVersion). I can see ENB compiling shaders, and then soon afterwards the game closes. Nothing in the logs stands out to me. I have the full Skyrim SE+AE+CC combo. I read some guides that suggested adding a few extra d3d .dlls (d3dx11_43, d3dcompiler_43, d3dcompiler_47 etc.), but none of that seemed to help. I haven't experimented much with Steam command line args, because I couldn't find any guides or success reports.

What gives? Has anybody gotten this to work recently and knows how to do it?

All other modding works great. For example the Tuxborn list (~1600 mods but no ENB) works flawlessly, but as soon as ENB gets into the picture, everything breaks 🙄

Hello,

I switched from Windows to Linux Mint on my old Asus Tufbook and so far it has been fine, but I am not a Linux expert in any sense of the word. I have some old games that I would like to run with DPI scaling so I can see them better, but DPI scaling doesn't seem to work in Lutris.

I read about Gamescope and it sounds like it will do what I want, but it's not in the software manager and the GitHub page lists a bunch of scary commands for building it myself. I can try and find the flatpack, but it seems that won't work with my non-flatpack install of Steam. Is there a PPA somewhere that will make installing Gamescope a little less intimidating?

Thanks in advance for any help!

I want to replace my cheap gamepad and I have some questions.

• Is high polling rate worth it?
• Does Gyro sensor works on Linux?

I'm forced to use all system audio for Game Recordings installed on CachyOS (uses arch linux) and I don't have the option to change away from "All System Audio" which could include any music playing.

Is there any way to get this feature working, does another linux distro support it or is it all linux that can't do this?

Yes, you can expect a good experience playing Sonic Colors: Ultimate at a 3840x2160 (4K) resolution on Linux using Proton. Based on user reports and gameplay videos, the PC version of the game is well-equipped to handle high resolutions and frame rates, and this generally translates to a solid performance on Linux through Valve's Proton compatibility layer.

I've been playing Helldivers 2 on my Linux Mint (21.3) (newbie, have been running Linux for a little over a year now) since about Christmas 2024. Haven't had any real issues to speak of. Recently, however, the game received a new update with new content. Good stuff, it was an enjoyable week or so. But the new stuff was buggy and problematic, so the devs removed some of the new content to patch it. Ever since that post-update patch, my game has had graphical issues unlike anything I've ever seen (game assets not loading, see screenshots). There's little rhyme or reason for what is invisible and what isn't...some background objects are invisible on-ship, but some aren't. Human skin textures load, but not armor. This makes the game hard enough to play, since the enemies are also mostly invisible now. But the last two screenshots show what it looks like when dropping on-planet. There's a mass of white dots everywhere, and the final screenshot was taken right as the game crashed (less than a minute into gameplay).

My question is: Is this something to do with my system, or is it something from the patch?

Things I've tried: Verify graphics drivers are current (and tried older versions), verify integrity of Steam installation files, uninstall/reinstall game, mess with in-game graphical settings. Thinking that maybe a new app installation borked something, complete wipe/reinstall of OS and reinstalled only basic applications but still get the exact same symptoms.

System: I've got an Nvidia GTX 1080, running a 2TB SSD, 32GB of RAM.

I'm completely at a loss; my friends can still play (although performance issues are a problem; the devs are working on that currently). But when I try to play with them, they can see me but I can't see them. I've tried the dev's tech support page, but no replies. Tried their Discord, but the active mod said they didn't have experience with Linux. Tried the sub-Reddit, got no replies at all. I miss playing this game, and I hope that someone can help me get this figured out. None of the other graphics-heavy games I play have this issue.

Flatpak steam can't download games in my hard drive. It always ends with "write error". I've mitigated this issue by using the repo steam. I prefer flatpak however. Also how do i run old games like project igi, the house of the dead 1/2/3, teknoparrot emulation of house of the dead 4/scarlet dawn etc? Lastly do i need lutris if steam can handle all my needs? Thanks and i use endavouros btw.

With the latest SteamVR update, my Meta Quest 3 finally seems to work on Linux. Just yesterday I tried running Alyx and it wouldn’t start at all, but now it actually runs. The only problem is that the image quality feels off — the bitrate seems pretty low. On Windows or when using WiVRn, the image looks much sharper. When I move my head quickly, I notice some heavy artifacts in SteamVR.

Is there any way to force a higher bitrate? I’m only about one meter from a Wi‑Fi 6 router, and speed tests show over 500 Mbit, so bandwidth shouldn’t be the issue.

Hello, folks of r/linux_gaming! This is my first post here. As we all know, Windows 10 support is ending soon, and I don't wanna use Win11. Please suggest some good distros for my regular use (gaming, youtube, coding).

My specs are:

CPU: Intel i5-6500 (6th Gen)

GPU: Intel HD Graphics 530

RAM: 16 GB DDR4

Storage: 512 GB SSD

I mainly use my PC for coding (Java, Python, etc.), browsing, and playing games like Assassin’s Creed (up to Black Flag) and Dying Light 1.

I've been considering:

Pop!_OS (Intel/AMD edition)

Nobara Linux

Linux Mint Cinnamon

Ubuntu LTS

All advice is highly appreciated👍🏼

Need Illustrator/Photoshop for work. I want to have a backup setup to play games not supported on linux by using something like GPU Passthrough (dual booting is too much hassle). Is GPU Passthrough what I should look into, or is there something else I should have an eye on? Currently only have one GPU, 5080, but thinking about picking up another one, cheap but good enough for upscaling, lossless scaling. etc. and of course GPU passthrough.

Title pretty much says it all. Recently setup a windows kubuntu dual boot computer recently and I noticed that when I sign in to the windows boot after opening steam on the linux boot, it forces me to sign in again. Is there a way to prevent this so they can always stay signed in on both OSs?

built a new computer for my friend and i was shocked to see how many of the big "gaming distros" wouldn't boot on his secure boot-enabled bios! i can't even imagine how many new users found themselves unable to even try linux and just throw in the towel early. every little nuisance that gets in the way of installation makes it more difficult.

some distros offer instructions to actively disable the feature... but they shouldn't HAVE to! it's a useful feature especially when paired with encryption and a bios password. outside of the security benefits, it seems like a no-brainer to remove a big papercut in the way of "switching to linux".

also, some PCs don't even give you the option to disable it.

ubuntu, fedora, and opensuse were the only three i was able to get working out of the box. none of the crazy gaming distros and forks that aim to target new users and windows migrants were able to achieve this...

i would prefer people not bring up conspiracy theories or politics and just stick to technical reasons here, thanks. i'm aware a small fee is needed for microsoft to sign SB binaries, is that the reason?

Switched to mint in preparation of Microsoft's chicanery. Installed Cyberpunk 2077 to see how well it performs. Got the following results on the benchmark using the Ray Tracing Ultra preset:

I think the average FPS is rather low for what I'm running, I suspect it is a CPU issue.

Proton 10.0-2 beta, launch options:

Specs:
OS: Linux Mint 22.2

AMD Ryzen 5 3600
RTX 3080 TI
1080p 75Hz monitor
16GB ram
500GB M.2 SSD

As for why I'm running a 3080ti at 1080p: I got it off FB Marketplace for $250

Wanting to make sure there isn't anything else I can do before I decide to upgrade the CPU.
