This sounds dumb and also sounds like it's not even related to this sub but, what if there was a moddified Linux kernel (such as Linux-LTS or Linux-Zen) but that let software to execute at kernel level? That would make possible to run any game on Linux and (for security reasons) people could dualboot a distro for kernel-level anticheat gaming with their common distro.

Could that be done or is It impossible or a bad idea?

I have seen a lot of videos now of cyberpunk player super well on this gpu! Saw a guy getting around 90fps with FSR on Quality, RT Psycho and ultra settings (no path tracing). This is on windows though, and with a 9800x3d.

My setup is with a 5600x. But i can barely hit 55 fps on these settings? Am i doing something wrong?

Im running CachyOS on Hyprland. With the ASUS TUF RX 9070 XT amd 5600x 32gb 3200mhz ram

I tried installing the ultra+ mod but that didnt really give me any boost in performance.

Have also tried updating to mesa-git and tried both AMDVLK and RADV, but the difference is minor. Does Cyberpunk just run alot better on windows?

A lot of benchmarks on youtube seem to say Linux is actually better?

My gpu maxes out at 98%

I've been using BaziteOS for over a year now after switching from Windows to a full Linux setup. It’s been great for gaming, my Steam games all worked out of the box without any extra setup, which is why I stuck with it for so long.

But now that I’m starting working more on my machine with programming and writing automation scripts, I’ve hit a wall. BaziteOS being an immutable OS is starting to get in the way. Specifically, I’m trying to use pyautogui, and Wayland is causing compatibility issues. I attempted switching to Plasma X11, but it keeps crashing with a black screen on login.

So I’m looking for a distro that’s:

• Easy to set up and use like BaziteOS (no need to install or config any drivers)
• Very easy of use for gaming
• Flexible enough for development work and scripting

Any recommendations? I’d really appreciate your suggestions—thanks in advance!

A week ago, my game run perfectly fine. Then I updated my system. While I can start the game as normal and the main menu works as normal as soon as I load into my current campaign or start a skirmish battle vs. AI, the game freezes after a few seconds and does not recover.

Software Versions

• Total War: Warhammer III: v6.2.2 Build 36734.3708877 (windows build)
• Proton: Experimental (10.0 I think)
• OS: Arch Linux x86_64
• Kernel: 6.12.42-1-lts
• Desktop Environment: GNOME 48.4 (wayland)
• GPU Driver: nvidia-dkms 580.76.05-4
• Package manager: Pacman v7.0.0 and yay v12.5.0

Hardware

• CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D (16) @ 5.050GHz
• GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 16GB
• RAM: 64GB

What I have already tried

• Restart my machine
• Repaired the game files via steam
• Again updated all drivers and software on my machine
• Downgrading Proton to version 9
• Run the game in window mode
• Disabled my tiling window extension (Forge)
• Run the game with launch options PROTON_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 %command%
• Switching to Proton-GE: This actually changed something. Now the game freezes for a few seconds, then the screen turns black (sounds still ok), and the game re-renders... for a few seconds then it freezes again. This was going on in a loop for minutes until I closed the game.

Other Information

Other games seem to run as normal. I guess downgrading my GPU driver could solve the problem, but I would rather not do that if possible.

I’ve never used Linux for gaming so I wonder if there is any noticeable performance difference between easier distros like Fedora, Ubuntu or SuSE like distros vs something like Arch, Gentoo or Void Linux. I’m talking about out of the box distro with KDE option.

I’m asking as I’ve seen JayTwoCents video where all games he tested was performing worse on Bazzite (Fedora) than W11. I’ve tested Bazzite on the same 7900xtx and also see few games performing worse than my W10.

Resident evil 4 in particular was running slower. Is it normal? Or there is something wrong with Bazzite, KDE, 7900xtx, RE4 or something else? Many people claim that amd gpu perform better on linux than on windows. I play at 4K if that matters.

Hello everyone,

A question from a fellow linux gamer , those of you who use Nvidia cards , which driver version are you running ?

I'm running latest non beta 575.64.05 on 4060 on bazzite and it's been a huge pain. From some games crashing to severe fps drops / stutters.

yes , I've troubleshooted the case thoroughly, it's nvidia. mostly vram related.

I own the game through GOG and installed with Lutris on CachyOS.

Tried a variety of wine package and used 'proton-cachyos' with "STEAM_DECK=1" environment variable, but I am at my wits end. I also tried the SoC EE cutscenes mod on NexusMods, yet the cutscene aren't loading.

Nothing seems to work, and I never played S.T.A.L.K.E.R. before, would like to have a seamless experience.

Cutscene in question

Does anyone have some suggestions or an outright fix? Thanks in advance.
