I doubt you need any more games, or perhaps you do, and you fancy some classics. Well the Disney Black Friday Humble Bundle has some fun stuff in it.

A while ago in November, it seems I missed a post from a user in the GamingOnLinux Discord server, noting that the Discord developers finally hooked up screen and audio sharing for Linux with Wayland.

Hey all,

I've been getting some rather strange performance issues in certain games: the 3D 'game' runs fine, but 2D bits - scrolling menus especially - are stuttery and cause freezes of up to a few seconds.

One game (from the depths) has a Linux native version, that version gets the stuttering. Running the windows version through proton removes the stuttering.

Looking at utilization during the stutters, the GPU utilization drops substantially, indicating the game is likely waiting on the CPU. CPU utilization/Temps/etc do not really change.

Many of the games I have noticed issues with use Unity, and most show the issue running through proton (From The Depths excepted).

Nvidia drivers are up to date, system packages are up to date, lowering settings to minimum doesn't improve things.

Any ideas what could be causing this? Or how to begin debugging?

CPU: 3900x GPU: RTX 4090 All games running off a pcie SSD

Why is the performance better when playing Overwatch through Battle.net with Lutris compared to playing it via Steam with Proton/GE Custom? I don’t experience stuttering, and overall, the gameplay is much smoother on my system:

• CPU: i5-4570
  
• GPU: RX 7600 XT OC 16GB
• RAM: 8GB DDR3
  
• OS: Fedora 40 Wayland

So this isn't really made to poke the proverbial bear, but a lot of people promote Wayland because "modern gaming performance" and "doesn't matter Nvidia or AMD". This is added with "X is easily replaceable and has vulnerabilities". But every time I've used Wayland I've had poor performance and my controller shit worked funny (Steam mouse interaction via gamepad).

I did a clean install of Zorin lately on a laptop I changed out the ram and SSD on a 2020 laptop with an Nvidia GTX1650 (thing came stock with 8 GB of RAM and a 500 gig hard drive. I upgraded to 32 gigs of RAM and a terabyte). I tried loading up "Road Redemption" for kicks. On a Wayland session, 14 to 20 FPS any way I cut it. No DE tweaking or swapping.

I switch to an Xorg session and run the same game. 160-180FPS consistently.

My desktop (2014 chip/ board with 2021 graphics card, Radeon) can pull similar. Again, X session, X11 if I recall correctly.

Is this a performance anomaly or puffed dev expectations or what?

Hi

I'm trying to run Sky: Children of Light with gamescpe because it's the only way to have it work on Nvidia Wayland according to protondb

But the problem is that appending gamescope to the launch parameters causes the game to not start at all. Nothing opens, Steam tries to boot up the game and then gives up immediately and nothing shows up.

Right now I'm running this:

gamescope -W 1920 -H 1080 -r 240 --expose-wayland -- %command%

But I've been trying a lot of combinations of settings and nothing ever seems to work

I'm on a laptop with a forced Optimus setup (screen is only physically wired to the Intel GPU) with an Nvidia RTX 2070, on EndeavourOS, using the gamescope-git AUR package (but I've also tried normal gamescope and gamescope-nvidia-git). Running Wayland. With the nvidia-open-dkms driver. No external screens connected. I'm using native Steam, NOT the flatpak. Any tips?

Hello!

I'm thinking of getting the Valve Index to play VR games on my PC. I wanted to know some informations before buying a VR headset, before, here's my specs:

CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 5500 GPU: AMD Radeon RX 6750 XT RAM: Corsair Vengeance Pro 2x8 Go 2666MHz Distro: Arch DE: KDE Plasma 6 Desktop manager: Wayland

Here's my questions: - Since I use Wayland, do VR games are working out of the box or do I need to switch to X11 to play VR games? - How's VR on AMD? I heard it is better with NVIDIA but I could be wrong. - Does exist dedicated communities about VR on Linux? Can you share some?

If you need more informations, tell me and I'm glad to respond!

Thanks!

Hi. I'm looking for an alternative to Steam Tinker Launcher. I like the idea behind STL. In Steam we can choose only STL as a compatibility tool, no custom commands like gamemoderun mangohud %command%, all these additional tools can be selected from GUI in STL game settings. But at the same time STL GUI is a mess. All game settings are on the same window, a lot of scrolling to check mangohud and gamemode. Additionally adding other tools like protonhax to custom command is counterintuitive. There is no window to enter additional commands. Documentation can also be improved.

Are there any alternatives to Steam Tinker Launcher? If not, I'm thinking of writing my tool to integrate tools like gamemode, mangohud, and protonhax. I don't want to enter spaghetti custom commands in Steam game settings.

Atlyss keeps crashing around 30 mins - 1 h into gameplay, constantly, sometimes for unknown reasons it also bricks my pc and i need fo restart, i had similar issues with webfishing, but for some reason it now doesnt crash and also only used to crash around 3 times before running smoothly

Atlyss doesn’t stop crashing, constantly, I figure it may be something with some C++ library, seeing as both Unity and Godot are written in it, when I get back home I’ll try to repair them, but just in case I’m writing this if someone has any ideas or experiences with this, it would be greatly appreciated

Another thing is if someone knows where I can find the crash logs if there are any, that’d be great, and if it’s something to do again with nvidia graphics cards, yes I do have a 3070
