when on the arch wiki read about it, also saw some youtube videos about it, everyone is saying that it just works about of the box, i also have all the dependencies required or ps4 controller to connect properly, bluez, bluez-util, and others. and the thing is pretty much no one on the internet has his specific issue that i am facing everyone is saying that the controller connects without any issue with the pc but is not getting recognized in pc. mine issue is total different from everyone. read about it even more do i need to add the sony playstation user side kernel module to make it work, i most i dont think i will need it because the kernel works with the controller by default without the need of external modules

So, my PC is pretty good, 5800X3D/7800XT. On windows when i played Fallout76 i had FSR running (Scaled down from 3440x1440) On Medium-high settings and i would average about 30-60FPS depening on the area im in however, on Bazzite im seeing much higher numbers without FSR and on Ultra settings (Between 50-140 in some zones) Whats up with that?

Im just trying to play Plants vs Zombies 2 . Went through the entire hassle of doing waydroid several times with the arm layers only to find the translation layer needed for this specific game is absent. Other arm games work.

Then ... yeah there was GennyMotion but by the looks of it , its just a worse waydroid. Also tried AVD , poor performance , harder and obtuse to setup for this use case.

Across threads ive seen vague mentions of things people say work , but honestly im not doing the whole 5 hour trial and error if i cant know it will work for sure.

So i would like to know , if anyone has a really good setup they found works for most games?

Fedora Silveblue (Ublue Base Latest)
Ryzen 5 5600H

==Edit==
Current setup consists of streaming the game through steam from a crappy windows laptop running bluestacks.

Hello! A little trivia: I have installed Linux Mint on my second SSD just yesterday, and my friend (he’s using Windows 10) wanted to play the new snapshot. On Windows we used Radmin VPN to setup a virtual network and play minecraft on my “singleplayer” world that I opened to LAN. However, I did not find a way to do the same on Linux: I tried installing Radmin VPN through Wine, but I could not create neither connect to a network, so I gave up and booted up from Windows.

So my question is, how do I play with my friend (who lives in a different country and uses Windows) on LAN-hosted server that I host on my PC? Maybe there is a Hamachi/Radmin VPN alternative for Linux that will also work on Windows and create a network link between our computers?

Oh and by the way, buying Realms subscription or using free/non-free host providers is really not an option for us.

Another surprisingly good deal from Humble Bundle here. The Neon Lights Bundle has launched with multiple highly rated games like Ghostrunner and Neon Abyss.

Fogpiercer isn't the only upcoming train combat game around, with Apocalypse Express getting a demo now too but they're both wildly different and worth trying. Apocalypse Express is just chaos and I want more.

I have Ubuntu 24.04 (LTS) and I downloaded Steam's deb. version because the snap version had mic problems (doesn't show your mic and doesn't allow you to use it etc.). Now is the problem that my steam doesn't open unless I give some commands that makes it restart steam etc. When I write steam in the terminal I get this: :~$ steam

steam.sh[49079]: Running Steam on ubuntu 24.04 64-bit

steam.sh[49079]: STEAM_RUNTIME is enabled automatically

setup.sh[49278]: Steam runtime environment up-to-date!

steam.sh[49079]: Using supervisor /home/*****/.local/share/Steam/ubuntu12_32/steam-runtime/amd64/usr/bin/steam-runtime-supervisor

steam.sh[49079]: Steam client's requirements are satisfied

CProcessEnvironmentManager is ready, 6 preallocated environment variables.

Steam is already running, exiting (command line was forwarded).

As you can see it gives back instructions as if the steam is already running but it's actually not on and when I click on the steam icon on my homepage it doesn't do anything. I usually gave some commands like: killall steam and then I clicked on steam icon, which opened steam after like a minute or so? I hope there is a way to solve this.
