For years we've been saying that these days on Linux you don't need the terminal much or even at all on beginner distros. Well, now just to install Windows with slightly less evil, you need the terminal AND a hardware hack lol.

I can't believe LTT can put out a video like this without relentlessly mocking how disgusting Windows is these days.

Hallo, eins vorweg: ich bin kompletter Linux-Noob.

Ich habe Ubuntu 24.04 neu installiert und dabei eine Systempartition und eine Homepartition eingerichtet. Außerdem habe ich einen Administrator und einen "Alltagsnutzer" angelegt. Nach der Installation von Steam und Heroic Games Launcher habe ich versucht, mit meinem Alltagsnutzer (KEIN SUDOER) Spiele auf der Homepartition zu installieren und zu starten. Unter Steam war das möglich und ich konnte auch die Spiele starten. Der Heroic Games Launcher, den ich für GOG nutze, hat die Spiele ebenfalls anstandslos auf der Homepartition installiert. Wenn ich das Spiel aber starten möchte, tut sich...nichts. Ich habe die Spiele dann deinstalliert und als Administrator auf der Homepartition neu installiert. Das gleiche Spiel wie beim Alltagsnutzer. Sie starten einfach nicht. Leider finde ich im Netz keine Hilfe dazu. Muss ich Heroic irgendwelche Rechte geben? Wenn ja, wie? :)

System: Ryzen 2700X, AMD Radeon VEGA 64, 16 GB RAM

Hey Guys and Girls! I want to ask you if you see any interest in my game, because I thought about porting it also to Linux, but I dont want to spend the time if is not worth it.. my wishlists are 99.5% Windows.. so, if are curious to try the demo in one week, let me know, I'll do my best to have it Linux Ready by them!
Game is called Walk and can be found on Steam, a wishlist would help me a lot in taking a decision! Have a great day!

I just installed cachy OS because a lot of people said it's wonderful. I'm running it on a Samsung 4k tv that supports 120hz fresync with VRR. When I turn the refresh to anything above 60hz the screen flickers.

I'm using an AMD RX 6600 with cinnamon DE. I installed the game package software via the hello menu. I believe I have all driver updates installed, I pressed the update tool and it says there's nothing to update.

120hz works perfectly on Manjaro and windows 11. I'm sort of a Linux noob so pardon my ignorance.

If you like the app and would like to contribute to the translation and/or revision for your language, please follow these steps.

For now, the languages that have already been translated are:

• English
• German
• Hungarian
• Polish

Thank you very much!

It happened to me on kubuntu and mint, stuff I found out on google said I need to update drivers, but mint said there were none since I use AMD.

I have an issue where all Retroarch games, any core, any game, launches in the background. I can alt-tab to bring the game to the top but this is undesirable because I use Sunshine/Moonlight to stream games to my TV. This behavior exists on the host whether or not Sunshine is running. I have tried toggling many of the settings, but the behavior seems the same regardless of the settings in use.

System is:

• 12th gen i7
• Nvidia 5070 ti
• Ubuntu 25.04
• Nvidia open header 575 driver

I see a message in the log that might be indicating the issue, but I'm not sure. It does seem to be related:

Cyan Worlds went back to their classics Myst: Masterpiece Edition, Riven (1997) and Myst III: Exile to get them upgraded and also Steam Deck Verified at the same time.

Into the Restless Ruins is a rather different dungeon crawler, one where you build the dungeon over time with a deck of cards you continue to gather and upgrade.

Yes, you read the title right, I am a dumbass, bought Forza Horzion 5 on the MS store, found out it was on Steam later, but it was too late to return. So, back to the main question, is there a way to run the MS Store edition on Linux under Wine or Proton? I have a Windows machine from which I can download the actual game, that is not a problem for me, actually launching the game is.

I have set up a second user account on fedora which is not an root account. And I have a steam library on a second ssd which I want to share between me and the second user. So I chmod the partition and now the second user can access the ssd and see all the games from the shared ssd on steam but he can`t play them.If I or he click start the play button gets for 2 seconds blue and than returns to green.

But if I install a game from the second user the second user can play it but than my root user account can`r play it anymore. It looks like the games install themselfs only for a certain user.

I did install steam with the root account from the gnome software center not as flatpak but as rpm fusion version

Hi everyone,
I’m new to Linux and after countless failed attempts with other distros, I finally settled on Linux Mint Cinnamon – and it’s running great! Gaming works well overall, and even Supermarket Together runs smoothly… except for one very strange issue.

I can launch the game through Steam and play just fine — performance is solid. But when I go into the "Cool People Room" and look at the changing board, the game suddenly starts lagging heavily. If I look away, everything is smooth again. The same thing happens with the TV: once I turn it on, the game starts stuttering, and turning it off immediately fixes it.

Now here’s the weird part:
When the lag starts, I noticed that my GPU seems to downclock. I can hear my GPU fans clearly while playing normally, but the moment I look at the board or turn on the TV, the fans go quiet — almost like I had closed the game. Performance drops hard until I look away or turn the TV off.

My specs:

• Linux Mint 22.1 Cinnamon
• Cinnamon Version: 6.4.8
• Linux Core: 6.8.0-60-generic
• GPU: Nvidia GeForce RTX 3060 Ti (8 GB)
• CPU: 11th Gen Intel© Core™ i5-11400 @ 2.60GHz × 6
• RAM: 16 GB

What I’ve tried so far:

• All available Proton versions (including Proton GE )
• Gamemode enabled
• Nvidia proprietary drivers, confirmed working via nvidia-smi
• System is fully up-to-date, no thermal throttling or abnormal usage

I’m stuck. Any idea why the GPU might be downclocking when looking at certain objects in the game? Or how I can prevent it?

Thanks in advance for any help!

I got this base level Chromebook and I want to do some really intense gaming and streaming. Is that at all even possible? Are there any workarounds for expanding RAM?
