SteamOS 3.7.15 "The Sound of Silence" released https://playingtux.com/articles/steamos-3715-sound-silence-released?lang=en #Linux #Gaming #LinuxGaming

Hello,

Has anyone gotten BL2 to not be a complete nightmare on Linux? I'm not new to Linux Gaming having some arduous setup requirements to get going as desired, but everything I do for Borderlands does not seem to help. No matter what, this game CONSTANTLY gets Out of Video Memory errors.

PhysX is set to low [RTX 50xx card anyways, so it wouldn't be supported regardless]

UHD Texture DLC installed/uninstalled

Proton in use since the Linux version is craop

I have tried different combinations of the following launch args: PYOPENGL_PLATFORM=nt PROTON_USE_DXVK=1 PROTON_FORCE_LARGE_ADDRESS_AWARE=1 __NV_PRIME_RENDER_OFFLOAD=1 __GLX_VENDOR_LIBRARY_NAME=NVIDIA
I have also tried setting this in dxvk.conf: d3d9.evictManagedOnUnlock = True, as well as a few other variables... 90% of which causing an instant crash.

UHD is usually the one having the finger pointed to it, but without it installed it doesn't allow windows multiplayer people to join. Not to mention that it doesn't work either way, still kills when loading into Sanctuary with OOM.

I'm just absolutely losing my mind. Please, does anyone have any experience getting BL2 to run without constant OOM errors?

Distro, Arch. Kernel, linux-zen. CPU, Intel i7-14700K. GPU, RTX 5070. Driver, nvidia-open-dkms 580.82.09. RAM, 128GB. Proton Version, Experimental.

I've been trying to get roblox sober to work, and whenever i try to open it up, it'll look like it's opening up, but it's transparent, and it lasts for a second before immediately closing. I'm doing this on a chromebook. Please help.

What's in the title is for an application that needs the exe file. I use Linux Mint and Proton 9.0 worked, the others didn't work, it's Pop, but we tried to use Protonup but it only searches GE, GE doesn't work, it has to be normal anyway.

It has already received major discounts where I live, I would just need to know how the drivers work under Linux and if there are any custom drivers in the case that the support is pulled, I'm currently on a 1050 so it should be a massive performance jump.

I recently discovered while trying to figure out why I can't game on Linux, that my drivers are probably screwed up.

How do you manage drivers on Linux? The CachyOS gaming wiki page just tells you to download a couple packages.

On windows all I had to do was download the Nvidia app and it would handle all the driver stuff for me. I have no clue how to check and make sure that my old drivers are removed and the new ones are active and that none of the various packages conflict with each other.

How the heck are you guys doing this? There's got to be a way to automate this right?

Anybody tested it on desktop ? on Deck ?
Does it include the toolkit ?

This is so confusing, because I had no problems with my steam controller for years, however I was playing BG3 using steam link on my living room TV, and after connecting back to PC no game seems to recognize my steam controller. It works fine in big picture and in steam overlay but just no input is send to the game themselfs. I tried both dongle and wired, big picture and not, changing different controller layouts, nothing seems to work even in games with native controller support. When launching steam from terminal no output in logs seems to be connected to the problem.

I'm using Debian 14, and if there is any more info I can give I would be more than happy to provide, because I'm really running out of ideas!!!

When I was still using dwm on X11, most of the games just worked out of the box. Now with wayland on gnome, many of them stopped working. I either get black screens or they won't start at all. Even a lot of popular games such as Borderlands 2 or Left 4 Dead 2 come up with "Force to quit" messages once I start them. I just ended up with dual booting into my Windows 11 installation all the time. It sucks, but at least things work out of the box and I don't need to spend my time on finding tweaks.

Hi, I’m using Easy Effects for my microphone processing. I’ve double-checked that it works fine in OBS and Discord, but when I launch Dota 2, the mic doesn’t appear in the list of available input devices.

Has anyone else run into this issue or know how to fix it?

I'm having a strange Steam Client behaviour.

If run Steam Client from desktop launcher file, it seem it's working(showing logging in dialog and usual steam processes observed from ps), but steam client window don't show up.

If run from GNOME Terminal when steam client hasn't been running already, window shows up.

I found out unchecking "Enable GPU accelerated rendering in web views" fix the issue and window shows up even from desktop launcher file.

I installed Ubuntu 25.04 to this PC just yesterday. I haven't edited .profile or .bashrc. so I'm puzzling run from GNOME Terminal make any difference.

Installed SAMP Using a portproton video card Rtx 3060 mobile Before I turned off the FPS limit, the maximum was 52. After turning it off, it became 90. I think this is not a normal FPS for my video card.
