If I try exist after logging into root. It goes back to login. System reboot does just reboot, doesn't fix it. Don't know what to do right now. A little help is appreciated, thanks! This happened after I installed proton ge, steam and gamemode, then restarted to windows for some work.

Rocket League and Steam Deck Issues

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 25 Dec 2025 - 8:22am

Hello all! I decided a few days ago that I didn’t want to play casual rocket league through steam share from my brothers rocket league game. So, after installing heroic and running into controller problems (dual shock and steam deck controllers not working), I finally fixed it by installing the newest wine version, GEproton10.27. It was working fairly well, and pretty consistently (for a day and a half ish). Now, here I am, again, repeatedly launching rocket league in desktop mode hoping that it will let my controller through. For those who run rocket league this way, I would appreciate any help or advice and experience in this kind of problem! I’m open to using others ways of running rocket league that are known to be better also. Thank you!

Not sure if this means anything, but I know something recognizes the DualShock input in the start screen because I hear the sound that usually occurs when a start button is activated. Still, nothing happens.

I'm tired of being treated like a cheater by default.

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 25 Dec 2025 - 7:07am

Wine and Proton work better than they ever have. At this point, almost every game on Steam launches and runs on Linux, often with performance that matches or exceeds Windows. Compatibility is no longer the limiting factor.

Despite this, the number of games that refuse to run on Linux continues to grow.

These games aren't broken on Linux. They're blocked. Anti-cheat prevents them from running even though the games would otherwise function correctly. and when we ask about support, the response is the same every time. Linux is viewed as the cheater’s operating system.

I used to play a lot of Battlefield 4. It was the last entry in the series that allowed Linux players, and for a long time it was also widely viewed as the last good battlefield game. With the release of Battlefield 6, the player base moved on. That effectively killed Battlefield 4, and with it my ability to enjoy the series at all. I would rather stop buying EA games than return to Windows, but it still hurts.

All I want is to play games I paid for, on the platform I choose, without being treated like a cheater simply for not using Windows.

Question about wine topology

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 25 Dec 2025 - 6:48am

From my understanding so far the wine topology command i see used in some steam games is mainly used by X3D processors. Does intel have any use with the core ultra processors having p-core,e-core and low power cores? And if so how would I go about knowing what I would set as the value for that launch option on an ultra 7 155h? I only play guild wars 2 anymore and I see a lot of the protondb listings with wine topology enabled.

among us is acting EXTREMELY weird

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 25 Dec 2025 - 6:06am

the animations are replaying, i can't vote, it's running on 2FPS even tho it has 10GB of RAM available. i am not sure what is happening. for some reason, everything replays its animation, and the only way to actually get it to work is by pressing the Windows key (or special i think it's called)

Realistically, If anticheat games introduce support to linux would the overall % of linux users change?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 25 Dec 2025 - 6:03am

Realistically, if major anti-cheat systems added full Linux support, would the number of Linux users actually go up?

A lot of people already use Linux or dual-boot but stay on Windows just for games like Valorant, Fortnite, or COD. If that was no longer an issue, would more people switch to Linux or would most stay on Windows because it is already familiar and works for them? Would this mostly affect gaming on Linux or desktop use in general?

Our indie murder-mystery visual novel Sleuth Saga: Under Starless Skies now has a Steam page! We already support Linux with our itch demo and will support Linux right away when we release on Steam!

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 25 Dec 2025 - 5:47am

Sleuth Saga: Under Starless Skies is a "Sociopathological Western" murder-mystery visual novel adventure game set in a detailed fictional world with a focus on wild political conspiracy and far-reaching intrigue, inspired by classics of the genre like Ace Attorney and Danganronpa.

Earlier this year we posted a demo at sleuthsaga.itch.io/under-starless-skies containing the entirety of EPISODE 1 for free, and since then we've been hard at work on a major update which will also contain the entirety of EPISODE ZERO for free. When we're ready to launch it, this version of the demo will also be on Steam.

EPISODE ZERO is nearing completion and is likely to be ready early in the new year, so if you're interested we'd love it if you wishlisted us on Steam or followed us on any of our social media channels - SleuthSaga on X, BlueSky, YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, and of course, here. We also have a Discord server at https://discord.gg/qmxdXrnzZ3

We really can't wait to share EPISODE ZERO with you, and we're so grateful for all the wonderful support we've had in the six months since launching on itch!

AMD BC-250 USB 3.0 issue

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 25 Dec 2025 - 5:39am

I got the system running and works like a charm. Only problem now is that the USB 3.0 ports aren't working. Linux sees the controllers but nothing I plug into those ports are recognized. Anyone else have this problem?

Crash Bandicoot 4 It's About Time cutscenes run at 1/2 fps, everything else works perfectly fine

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 25 Dec 2025 - 4:54am

I tried with Proton GE (10-27), Experimental, with and without gamemode/game-performance, with and without mangohud, with and without gamescope.

I tried removing the fps limit, disabling/enabling vsync, windowed/fullscreen, nothing.

I'm using the NHANCED mod, same issue with or without it too.

Always same result, the game works perfectly (way better than Windows due to better AMD drivers on Linux, no shader cache stutter whatsoever), I only have this cutscenes issue. I've been using the Battle.net version, I do not own the Steam one.

I'm on CachyOs, R7 5700x and RX 7900XT.

So I just downloaded persona 5 royal from very legit source and everything went well throughout the install but now when I try to play it through Lutris, it just won't open.

Windows Enhance Pointer Precision acceleration on Linux ( libinput fork )

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 25 Dec 2025 - 2:28am

Hey I created a fork of libinput that replaces Adaptive acceleration with Windows' Enhance Pointer Precision.

https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/tehabstract/libinput-epp

You can also use the aur package:

https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/libinput-epp

I only implemented it for mouse, if there is interest I'll implement it for touchpad.

Dynamic env variables in steam ?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 25 Dec 2025 - 2:02am

Is there any way to run a bash script that'd check some stuff and export env variables before the game launches ?

For example a script like this for switching display depending on wether i'm in big picture or on desktop client

sh if [ "$SteamTenfoot" == "1" ]; then export WAYLANDDRV_PRIMARY_MONITOR=DP-1 else export WAYLANDDRV_PRIMARY_MONITOR=HDMI-A-2 fi

I'd probably also want to set some default parameters i'd like to set for all games in 1 place (i can just override them further in parameters), rather than trying to remember them every time i launch game.

Basically what i'm looking for is, "hey before you launch proton launch this script that will set up env vars"

and yes, i'd want it to be in steam, since i want to simply hit big picture mode rather than close and launch whole thing again.

Carx Street won't launch on Linux with Proton

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 25 Dec 2025 - 1:46am

hi guys,

since latest Update i can not start the Game anymore. Normally i use Proton GE-9.7 but i also tried different Version and Experimental and so on. But i only see the Anticheat Loader and then everything stops again. Also tried with "Steamdeck=1" Parameter and its still same.

with native Linux Version i can start Game but i can not use my modded Camera - then i also get just Black Screen after Loading Animation.

As ProtonDB doesn't show up any of this Problems i think its just related to my Settings.

I am on CachyOS btw.
