When im playing a steam game, most commonly with dbd and straftat (witch is running nativly) but also with other games occasionally, the game will freeze. Music in game will play but the screen will be frozen exept for my mouse witch i can still move to no effect. I know my system hasnt crashed beacause i can still communicate on discord perfectly fine as though nothing is wrong. But i cant alt tab out of the frozen game or use alt+f4 to fix . Sometimes it does let me tab out but only after several minutes.
Running debian 12 with nvidia drivers on a 4050

Anybody else experience this issue? Only appears on Vs hands. Doesn't appear on anyone else or any other texture. Happens regardless of GPU temp. More evident with scaling on, but still present without scaling.

RX 7800 XT
Arch Linux (Kernel 6.14.4-arch1-1)
Mesa 25.0.4-arch1.1
Proton Experimental

I'm really hoping it's not a GPU problem, though it's still under warranty from XFX.

I've been trying to get this running for days. Using lutris, as per the recomndation of another thread, I tried installing this using the Proton TKG version, but it is telling me I have an invalid wine prefix. Any help with this? Log below

Linux newb here; installed Mint last summer (no money for Windows, and am tired of tech companies being so intrusive) after 30 years of using Windows. Love this OS so much, but I know very little about how to troubleshoot it.

I've been playing Helldivers 2 on my Linux since around Christmas 2024 (so about 6 months). I'm running an Nvidia GTX 1080, and have been doing so with default game graphical settings and had no issues. Now, suddenly, I'm getting a fatal error "Requires a graphics card that supports at least Direct3D feature level 12_0" before immediate crashes. I tried forcing different versions of Proton, but the best I can get is a drop in, a few minutes of graphically laggy gameplay, and then a hard crash that locks up the game. I don't know if it's related, but at about the same time I began to have a C1 client error on Star Wars: The Old Republic (the MMO).

Anyone else having this issue, or have a solution? I miss diving with my friends, and it sucks that I can't play a game I paid for

Hello, I am getting a new nvme to install Linux on, so I'll have two nvmes, one for Windows and one for Linux.

Most of my games are installed on a separate SATA SSD through Steam, my question is when I install Linux and run Steam will it detect the existing games that were installed under Windows or will I have to re-partition the drive and re-download them?

I tried using linux (bazzite and nobara) but both times my steam had to be reinstalled. First time was because of a mistake i did but on nobara i was just playing a game and then suddenly my steam closed. I tried reopening it but it didnt work so i had to install it again. None of my games were installed according to steam but the disc space was still taken. Any idea what caused it and how i can avoid that happening again going forwards?

After alt-tabbing/pausing

Normal gameplay

So, I've been having this problem for a while now and just can't figure out why it happens.

There's this lag spike that follows a pattern in all my games under proton, native runs perfectly fine.

However, there's this strange phenomenon that happens in which when I alt-tab out of a game or just pause it for a while and then return to gameplay, the game runs buttery smooth for like 5 seconds before starting to spike up again. When the game is lagging, I found out that it's not just a frame drop, but the entire game engine slows down before return back to normal for like 1 second and then lagging again.

I've tried to disable ESYNC, and FSYNC, using gamescope, checking thermals, checking I/O and my btop. no help.

Any help or clue on this will be gladly appreciated :)

Alright, so i have spent about an hour troubleshooting an issues I was having. Long story short, all my games launching from Steam using proton reported their max resolution as being 1080P even though I am using a 4K display, I use a 65" TV for all my computing and gaming. I ran through some steps, and I could use gamescope to override the resolutions and it worked, but it's kinda crashy and unstable with my current config. After much faffing about I figured out it was my system scaling options. Turns out that when the plasma setting 'scaled by the system' setting is used games report 1080P sincee I am using a 2X scale for the desktop and when it is set to 'apply scaling themselves' games will properly report resolutions fine.

is there any way to selectively opt something like Steam out of scaling so it launches all games just as they are supposed to be? Browsers and really a boat load of apps don't scale properly even with the GTK env variables and all set properly so system scaling really is the best and foolproof method, just annoys me because remembering to switch it on and off repeatedly is starting to grind my gears so to speak.

Advice is appreciated and thanks in advance.

Using GE-Proton as the runner and ticking Prefer SDL, the dualsense will work great (with xbox button prompts) for around ~5 minutes or so, then the game will temporarily freeze for a few seconds, then after the game unfreezes the dualsense will no longer send inputs to the game. Specifically I tried this with Clair Obscur and The Last of Us 2.

However using UMU-Proton, I don't have this issue at all. In fact, I leave Prefer SDL unchecked and in-game will display playstation button prompts.

Does anyone know why that is? I'm fine with using UMU-Proton, except in some games (like Clair Obscur) in-game videos will not play (probably due to missing codecs)

I have Ubisoft installed through Lutris on my Nobara system, and everything works perfectly. However, when I try to play a game like Far Cry 3 through Steam, it doesn't launch. It says "Launching" for a moment and then closes.

I obviously checked ProtonDB to see if the game was compatible, and looking at other users' reviews, no one mentioned needing specific launch arguments for Ubisoft or how to make it detect the game when launched from Steam. I also tried installing the games through the Ubisoft Connect launcher, but it won't let me.

I think it's probably obvious that I have Wine and everything necessary for games to run.

If anyone knows a way to solve this, either with launch parameters from Steam or Ubisoft, I would greatly appreciate it.

I recently made the change to Linux mint and i really like it.
But when i play Space Marine 2.
No matter how much i lower the graphic settings, it caps at 40fps.
I've tried changing the proton, disable steam overlay.
Tried using newer Nvidia drivers and screen went all black.
I don't really know what else to try.

Here are specs:
Linux Mint 22.1 Cinnamon
Kernel 6.8.0-59-generic
12th Gen Intel© Core™ i7-12700F × 12
32 GB Ram
GeForce RTX 3060 Ti

Ok, so for the past week now I've had this issue and I can't get anything to work...

System Info: -Asus ROG Rampage III Gene Motherboard. -Intel Xeon W3670 overclocked to 4.0GHZ -12GB DDR3 1866 Memory -Radeon RX 560 (soon gonna have an RX 580) -512GB SATA SSD -Linux Mint 22.1

So, this isn't my main computer, just a collection of old parts i put together. I've been working on this project for a little while now just for fun and a some continuing education in Linux and computers in general. Probably gonna end up giving it away to somebody who can't afford a gaming PC... Anyway, I've been have some serious performance issues, like CS: GO only runs at 20-40 FPS on LOW settings... Seriously, CS: GO can run well on a potato! It's not the GPU drivers, it's an AMD card. Then I thought it might be the CPU governor, but no matter what I do, I can't adjust it, not with cpupower or cpufreq. The GUI versions won't launch at all, so I tried the terminal, but to no avail. I just keep getting a bunch of different error messages all basically saying, "You can't do that!" I tried so many commands, I don't even know what any of them are anymore. I'm all out of ideas at this point, please help! It's not really that important, like I said, it's not my main machine, but I've invested a lot of time and a little bit of money to try and get this thing running as best it can, so I'd like to get it working properly.

Hey I really need help figuring out how to fix this. I'm a beginner on linux and I'm basically clueless so it's probably an easy fix but I can't for the life of me figure this out. I've been playing DayZ on Ubuntu for a while now and after getting over some initial problems its been working fine. A few weeks ago I launched dayz and got an eternal black screen. Since then everytime I try to launch DayZ , either via a script for mods or via the regular launcher , I get a black screen and have to close the laptop with the power button. It doesn't even crash just stays on black screen basically forever and i cant exit it with any key bind. I have tried uninstalling and reiinstaling DayZ , restarting Steam ,verifying game files , switching from using Proton Experimental to other versions , switching the map_count value to something other than 1048576 , using launcher scripts and nothing seems to work. I suspect theres something wrong with steam because before the black screen I always see on console " Unable to acquire exclusive lock on steam runtime sniper(3)" or something like this but honestly im pretty sure I saw this on the console during launching back when it was working fine. I have tried verifying steam sniper and nothing. I cannot uninstall steam runtime sniper 3 or actually any Steam tools like Hotfix , soldier etc. I saw on another thread that i need to remove them from all games to remove them but Steam still wont let me uninstall the steam tools so i can reinstall them... Whatever tips you might have on what I need to do will be very much appreciated. . I didn't change anything from the last time Dayz launched to the first time it gave me the black screen so it's not something i did nor an update cause im sure i would have seen threads with people having the same problem. I will probably completely delete steam and dayz from my laptop and reinstall them but I dread the download times...

I've been using Linux Mint on my 2012 Macbook Pro for a few months now and I'm sold on Linux as a daily computing OS. I was intending on switching my gaming PC over to Mint or Fedora and then discovered the issues surrounding anti-cheat on Linux.

Unfortunately about half of the games I play involve anti-cheat, so that is a deal-breaker for me. But before I move on from the idea of using Linux for my gaming PC (for a while at least), I want to ensure I'm not missing anything.

I know I can't use Linux natively. I thought maybe I can still run Linux but just run a Windows VM when playing those games, but my understanding is that the VM wouldn't have kernel access, which is require by the anti-cheat tools, and would also not work.

This correct, anything I'm missing?

When I try to open HoI4 on Steam, I get directed to the Launcher. When I press play then I get a Error message (exit code 127) with the following details: /home/g/snap/steam/common/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/Hearts of Iron IV/hoi4: error while loading shared libraries: libOpenGL.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I tried everything I found on the internet so far, including reinstalling the game, checking the data via steam, and the usual things like restarting etc. Another thing I wanted to do was to change the rendering settings in the launcher for the game itself, which I know exists, however it is not shown, maybe because its on ubuntu. I suspect that this is the issue, because it is kind of stated in the error specification itself, but I don´t know what to do. Any help is welcome. Thank you in advance.

I loved this game up until they introduced an anticheat which killed the Linux support and did nothing to help against hackers (classic)

What FPS do you guys play that has that Battlefield gunplay while supporting Linux?
