my laptap is a thinkpad 14e without a discrete graphics card,when i run my win11,it will be very slow,even cant play the minecraft,so i install the ubuntu on my laptop.What surprised me was the speed of MC running on Linux, because on Win11 my MC only had 8 frames, while on Linux it ran to 100 frames.I saw that the performance of playing MC could be improved so much, so why don’t I download a steam to play the games in my library, so I downloaded a steam, but problems also appeared.

the first problem is,i do not have enough storage space，because when i install the linux,i only allocated 70g to it,now the system has only 10g of free space, so I need to expand the Linux.So I return to win11 and use the disk control to make 200g unallocated space.Then I use the bootable usb drive to enter the ubuntu live environment.Which tool I use is the gparted,this can put the ext4 on the 200g unallocated space,making the linux can recognize the 200g space. Then the problem become to how can I use the 200g?

My solution is to mount the 200g space to my home directory,it's safe and eazy.I use the blkls and memory the uuid of my new "disk",to make it automatically i use the instruction sudo nvim /etc/fstab

then put my uuid on the bottom of it,the instruction like :

UUID=f0e1d2c3-b4a5-6789-0abc-def123456789 /data ext4 defaults 0 2

ok,we have enlarged the space,then the most awosome comes,we need to add this new hard drive to the steam library folder,this is also the step that gives me the most headaches. I have been looking for strategies on the Internet for a long time,because when I try to add it directly in steam, it always prompts me that there is a disk write error

After looking for strategies,I finally find the problem the makes disk write error,the steam I installed in my home directory could not directly recognize the new space I mounted, so I created a soft link in my home directory pointing to my new space.

Finally, I succeeded! I successfully made steam recognize my new mount space！Now I can play freely the factorio,stardew valley,terraria and the dont starve together,yoho!

Any way to change this behavior? It’s just I have to move it to the center or away to get the menu bar of the game to disappear every time I launch it. I already tried grab cursor command but nothing.

How do I enable the Steam Overlay manually, if the game isn‘t detected automatically?

i can only find 2-1 year old posts about it so i want to ask again i’ve tried to get it working on lutrix but it doesn’t launch what specific wine version should i use if it does work? im a bit skeptical of “the certain launcher” for this game so i want to try getting it to work on the official launcher first

genshin works with no problems but idk i’ve heard star rail might not work so well

Anyone having this same issue? right after finishing the power plant mission I get into the car, drive a bit back to town and it freezes if I do anything after some time, either on combat, inside the car, running arround, it doesnt last 2 minutes before it freezes and the audio also gets stuck in time.

I am running it with proton experimental through steam (already tried diferent version, GE proton with faugus launcher, same results), dx12 (dx11 wont let me start the game), no other launching arguments. The game was working just fine for hours till this happens. Could it be the need for the new nvidia drivers? 581 is still not available for linux. There are no background programs, recording nor streaming going on while playing etc.

Hi all,

I'm a noob to linux and recently figured out how to run Linux Mint in Wayland.

Since I booted in Wayland, I've noticed better performance in my games, however I've run into a couple of issues that I'm struggling to get my head around and was hoping someone could please assist?

I run World of Tanks through Lutris, and for some reason the mouse cursor will not stick to the window of the game, in fullscreen or borderless mode. If I try to look to my right, the mouse will appear on my secondary monitor and the game will lose focus.

I found people suggesting gamemode and steam overlay for this problem but these did not resolve the issue for me.

The other weird issue is less of a problem but perhaps a symptom, I now have a window for Lutris' Wine System Tray, when that used to appear in my standard system tray. Just curious if this means anything?

Also my monitors seem a bit messed up, I've set my landscape monitor as my primary but all of my desktop icons are still on my secondary monitor, as well as my panels for each screen being reversed.

Anyways thanks for reading

Hi everyone, can someone help me activate LSFG? I had managed to use LSFG before, but I had to switch Linux distributions and, after that, I couldn’t activate it again, even when following the same process.

The only way I had managed to install it before was through the GitHub page, building it from source. I followed the step-by-step instructions there, and it just worked. However, after switching distributions, trying to follow the same steps no longer works.

This time, when I got errors again, I had the impression it was working, but when I activated it, no frames were generated — instead, I just got absurd input lag, whether at 2x or 20x frame generation with the immediate preset. When I set it to the vsync preset, the game would lock at 30 FPS. I really don’t know what could have caused this, I spent more than 4 hours trying to fix it and couldn’t.

All of this was tested on the same game, practically on a standard Linux setup without many additional modifications. My graphics card is an AMD RX550. I hope someone can help me, because this time I can’t get it to work, even after trying to repeat the same steps that had worked before.

What the hell are these

Hello there everyone, I wanted to request assistance since it's been a while since i have been playing Minecraft. Entities for some reason don't load, when i mine items, or try to adding mobs in creative, or shooting an error still doesn't show.

Laptop Inspiron-5575

And i have never encountered any issues regarding Minecraft.

For some reason when I'm playing the server lags a lot in singleplayer says like the server is overloaded in the debugging notes.

And i checked the java versions i had installed:

Selection Path Priority Status

the Linux native build is officially supported only on Steam Deck but it still works on Linux desktop. I'm seeing around a 14% improvement to average FPS in more CPU intensive areas of the game like Rivington and close to identical performance in more GPU bound scenarios like the very beginning of the game on the nautiloid. I presume the deck is likely to be CPU bound more often than my desktop so it's possibly a bigger uplift on there, but I don't have one to test it. All tests were done using Vulkan with ultra settings at 1440p on a 9070xt & 5950x machine.
