I recently switched and I have a couple of questions
I'm on Bazzite 43, using AMD both on CPU and GPU.
I have 3 monitors, 1920x1080, 2560x1080, 1920x1080.
My question is that the OS and games are quite bad at remembering some things:
- The middle monitor's brightness. It's constantly set back to 70% (or perhaps even lower)
- I made a change now to 'never dim automatically' for my display brightness, hopefully that will sort it out.
- Which one is the 'main' desktop, I don't really care, but left or middle is my preference. It's moved all my desktop icons around between multiple monitors.
- Many games don't know on which desktop to start (Balatro seems to start on the left one, and then jump to the correct one), but other games are much less reliable on which monitor it will start (I've had all 3)
- Both Steam and Heroic games are doing this

The AMD BC250 powers on when connected but displays no video or keyboard input.
Esa son las especificaciones de la fuente ya he probado con 2 diferentes y no muestra video y el teclado no tiene ninguna señal de estar funcionando alguien sabe que podría ser ? En discord vi otra persona con el mismo problema pero aun no lo soluciona

DirectX bug with S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Anomaly
I really like Anomaly so far but this bug is keeping me from being able to play the game. I'm using the GOG version of Anomaly with no other mods than default and running it through WINE. AFAIK, at some point when a certain object is on screen the game crashes. This is the error message:
Wine C++ Runtime Library (Window Title):
Assertion Failed!
Program: C:\GOG Games\S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Anomaly\bin\AnomalyDX11AVX.exe File: ../wine/dlls/d3d11/inputlayout.c Line: 416
Expression: "iface->lpVtbl==&d3d11_input_layout_vtbl"
The wine debugger doesn't help either. Just says "an unhandled exception occurred." Using other versions of DirectX or turning off support for AVX doesn't help either. I've turned off or lowered every graphical setting I can and nothing. I thought maybe it's a shader and using a shader mod (ScreenSpaceShaders) might help but it only just made things worse.
For anyone who has the game or wants to get it (it's free), I'm crashing around Rostok, in the arena, and coming out of the tunnel to the red forest from Limansk.

Should I switch?
I really want to switch to Linux, but my problem is so many apps are native to Windows and not Linux. I know Wine/Proton will help fix that but it won’t fix everything. I’m just not sure if switching will be worth it….With Linux Market share increasing, will Game developers and more “Windows-only” apps start going Native on Linux? I ain’t tryna move to Windows 11

Screen tearing when multitasking on ubuntu
Im new to ubuntu. Gotten a good bit figured out. But after restarting it for the first time (testing if it will crash like windows 11) it started tearing while playing a game and watching yt both will have screen tearing with both up. If Minecraft minimized yt wont have screen tearing. But minecraft will tear either way with v sync. Anyone got a fix?

Battlefield 1942 multiplayer?
Are servers still active?
This Lutris script failed to fully install the game with Cachyos. https://lutris.net/games/battlefield-1942/
The installation window change to the language selection, but does not complete. This is the final output.

Help please guys: HDMI monitor black screen on hybrid laptop (Intel + NVIDIA 470.xx) - blit failure in Aquamarine
Anyone who has used Millennium for Steam
How hard was the install? For windows it was pretty simple, but it seems vastly more annoying for Linux so i wanted some other opinions before I go ahead and try it.

Help with linux modding on steam
I’m trying to install the italian translation mod on Blue Prince on steam. I tried moving the files I found on https://www.nexusmods.com/blueprince/mods/18 but it doesn’t work and i think it’s because of unity. I don’t know anything about linux (it’s on steamdeck) and I am desperate. I need to make it work! Is there a way?

Is there any chance we will see ARM powered SteamOS handhelds in 2026?
Which improvements to Proton/Linux gaming are you most exited about for 2026?
Steam Machines, Steam Frames, FEX getting it's own spotlight, finally getting Wayland Wine and NTSync into the official Valve Proton versions.
Anything I've missed that is probably getting released in 2026, or anything else that you are looking forward in the realm of Linux and gaming?

Elden Ring Mods with Convergence Mod on linux
I might be ridiculed for this but I've long played Elden Ring with easy mode mod (the one that overwrite your regulation.bin). It is shameful but I do love Elden Ring story and exploration, and the combat is really good (despite the -50% dmg taken from the mod lol). So now I want to try the Convergence Mod, keeping the regulation.bin from /Elden Ring/Games.
When I try opening the mod through .bat file the game seems to load very differently and ignores the regulation.bin from the game folder.
Any ideas?

Should I swap my 4080 for an AMD card?
I know AMD is preferred when using Linux but I'm hoping for some advice looking ahead at upcoming hardware landscape.
I'm just now swapping to Linux (Dual booting on separate drives with windows), and the current consensus seems to be swapping to AMD is preferred.
However looking at the current prices for a 9070xt I'm debating whether it's actually worth buying a card now or if I should wait and see what the next line of cards bring.
My main worry is that everything seems to be rising in price rather harshly and if I wait now I might be stuck with my Nvidia card for the foreseeable future. (I know first world problems.)
Are current Nvidia drivers bad enough in your opinion to be worth swapping now?

Browser video acceleration on Linux still feels weirdly fragile
I’ve just spent the last 48 hours finalizing a fresh CachyOS install on an older Latitude. Overall, it’s been a very familiar Linux experience — except for one contradiction that always catches me off guard.
Getting the gaming side dialed in was almost suspiciously easy. Between cachyos-gaming-meta, Proton-GE, and a couple of FSR tweaks, I’m pulling frames out of this iGPU that really shouldn’t be there. We’re translating DirectX 12 calls on the fly with near-native performance, and it mostly just works. It still feels a little like magic.
Then I tried to watch a 4K/60fps video in a browser without my laptop sounding like it was preparing for takeoff.
That’s where things suddenly feel much less modern. Mesa versions matter. vainfo needs to look right. Then comes convincing the browser to actually use the VA-API path, which usually means digging through about:config entries or maintaining a flags file that feels more fragile than it should.
What really gets me is how delicate the whole setup feels. You finally see intel_gpu_top lighting up the video engine, everything behaves, and you relax — until the next Chromium update drops and suddenly you’re dealing with flickering viewports, GPU process crashes, or one experimental flag stepping on another.
It’s just interesting that the Linux ecosystem managed to coordinate well enough to make modern Windows gaming genuinely viable, while browser video acceleration still feels like a shared responsibility that no single layer fully owns. It’s one of the few parts of the desktop where things still don’t feel quite “set and forget” yet.
