Hi! As the title says, I'd like to play Star Wars battlerfont 2 (2017) but after some unsuccessful tries, I started steam from the CLI and started the game there. After some time I got the following output in the terminal which I think may be the reason why it's not able to start:

GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: 19:15:31.039: g_object_unref: assertion 'G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed Does anyone know how to fix that? I'm on NixOS (25.05, so latest stable version).

I'm wondering if this is Linux specific or game specific? Something that bugs me is how unstabe shadows seem to be. They move and kind of float/flow. Its helped with no upscaling but can still be seen in certain lighting. HDR on/off same results. I see this when looking out at bushes ect. Also seen on weapons. Anyone else? Playing on a 7900xt/7800x3d on Cachy os with Mesa 25.1

I’ve been thinking about getting the Hori Tac Commander (The final fantasy 14 one) but since I’ve switched to Linux outright I wanted to know how easy or hard it may be to map macros on it since it only lists windows compatible on the store page.

I am currently using Windows 11 and Ubuntu in parallel on 2 different SSDs, I just setup honker railway launcher today and it has been working smoothly. However, I have the root folder of HSR on another SSD that Hoyoplay on Windows 11 has installed. Can I change the Honker game folder path to the other SSD using the command on Honker's wiki page? I also want to ask this question for Genshin launcher because the SSD containing Genshin and HSR is faster than the SSD currently installed with Ubuntu

TLDR: Wyrd Waters is a 2-8 player online multiplayer fantasy naval game. We wanted to make a game where friends didn't get left out so we made it on Mac, Linux, Windows and SteamDeck! :D
It's mythological, tactical and quick/easy to pick up.

Our Demo just got released on Steam if you want to try a bite-size version! I'll link it below. And let us know if you find any bugs, it has been especially difficult to find Linux testers hahah.

Hi all,

A few weeks ago I decided to install Linux on another SSD and try dual booting. I have come to fall in love with the the Linux desktop but I have have spent countless hours testing different games with various versions of proton and I just can't make my mind up on whether or not the experience is better or worse than windows where gaming is concerned. After some initial tinkering I got a few games running really well, but there are some things I have noticed that seriously detract from my excitement. For example, Doom Eternal was running at a solid 165fps, but i started noticing some weird screen tearing or artifacts when moving around certain textures and I could not replicate these on windows. I also tried Sea of thieves and despite the in game fps counter telling me I was crushing the framerate, the game looked slightly choppy compared to the game running on windows. Are these just the hang-ups with nvidia drivers on linux right now or is this the type of compromise gamers make on linux in general? Would my experience be better with an AMD gpu? I plan to build a new system in the coming months and would love to make Linux my main operating system, but not if it means I'll have a generally worse experience gaming which is 90% of my use case.

For full transparency my setup is as follows:

Ryzen 7 3800x CPU

Nvidia EVGA 3080ti FTW 12gb GPU

16gb DDR4 RAM

Once again, I have tried a few titles that performed with zero issues which makes this all the more frustrating.

I'm rebuilding my pc and want to switch to linux. I mostly do gaming and video editing (via Davinci resolve). I have already put mint on a USB drive, since I like the interface and default tools etc, but I still have parts on order and want to know if any other distro would be more effective for video editing.

I use linux mint, on proton experimental. The gane crashes after hawaii 12th day during the ingame cutscene that plays. Nothing shows and the gane closes.

The game was fine up until that point on high settings without proton since i forgot to enable it.

Ive verified files, changed proton version but no difference.

Is this because if denurvo?

I plugged and olay, havent tinkered with any settings and just want to continue playing the game.

Anyone dealt with Touchscreen issues with Unreal Engine.

Seems to not work well then stops working as you get errors of running out of indexes.

SDL seems to be sending finger and mouse at the same time with I think confuses Unreal Engine.

Did anyone else come across this particular issue where there's this mouse jiteriness introduced when using a certain mouse? Maybe this subreddit will know more. I am on Fedora 42, tried all kinds of DEs bar Sway.

Mouse in question: I have a wired ZOWIE by BenQ EC2 mouse at 800 DPI that is problematic. I tried my old SteelSeries and there was no problem, everything was perfectly smooth.

How it looks:

https://imgur.com/a/I7pwgwn - you can spot how at random the cursor jumps quite a few pixels, seemingly at random

Pixels are being skipped at random when doing fine adjustments, in 3d games the mouse movement in tandem with keyboard movement causes the edges of objects I am focused on with my aim to be very jittery and this also translates into tracking targets that are 'teleporting' whenever I use mouse, as if I were playing DOOM 1. This is on a 144Hz monitor with over 400 FPS being streamed with frames being fed at a constant 3 ms. Not happening when I use another mouse. Tried on a laptop running the same Fedora build, same issue with the Zowie mouse. Not a thing on Windows.

I love Zowie, they have fantastic quality mice and I'd hate to have to replace it with a new overpriced mouse or an 'underpriced' one of a maker I don't trust, so if anyone has any idea what I could try.

More info: - Fedora 42, GNOME (Wayland, tried all other DEs), up-to-date - Changed polling rate (400 - 800 - 1200 - 1600) with no change - Used all other USB ports. - Cursor itself jitters when on desktop, no matter what app is being displayed or game played - Mouse smoothing is off, monitor frequency at 144Hz, GPU producing steady 400 FPS - Fine on Windows - Fine on other PCs and laptops running Windows, not on devices running Fedora
