Protontricks cannot access filesystem

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 30. August 2024 - 17:46

I'm trying to install the Fallout: London mod but running into issues with Protontricks not being able to see directories and files in the filesystem. I have tried giving Protontricks access to every part of the filesystem using Flatseal permissions to no avail. Is there something simple I could be missing here? I think it's nothing with the actual installer because it worked on Ubuntu 24.04 a few weeks back (recently hopped distros). Using Fedora 40 now.

Error when trying to run the installer.

Installer cannot view anything in the home directory. Show hidden files is ticked.

Downloading steam games on second drive

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 30. August 2024 - 17:44

[LM 21.3 XFCE] How do you download steam games on a second (non-main) hard drive without receiving error message? Is it a problem with drive permissions? Mounting errors?

I’ve managed to download GOG/Ubisoft/EG games on second drive using lutris, I haven’t figured out how to get them running properly but at least I can install them there

Mechabellum, my favourite auto-battling strategy game launches September 26

Gaming on Linux - 30. August 2024 - 16:57
Ah, auto battlers, at one point they seemed like they would be all the rage, but most quickly moved on. Mechabellum thankfully, feels a bit different, and quickly became a real favourite and it's set to leave Early Access on September 26.

Help me with booting up for the first time!

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 30. August 2024 - 16:37

So, about a month ago, my laptop's radeon GPU broke, leaving me with just integrated intel graphics.
Instead of repairing the laptop for the 5'TH time, a friend of mine convinced me to just build a desktop.
And since last winter, a forced Windows upgrade corrupted my files, I've decided to move to Linux as well.

With the same friend's help, I've managed to acquire this setup at a reasonable price:
Intel Core i5-12400F OEM | MSI PRO H610M-E DDR4 | Sapphire AMD Radeon RX 7700 XT PURE | GeIL Orion RGB 2x16 GB | 2000 ГБ SSD M.2 Team Group MP33 PRO

Now what?
My parts will arrive in about a week. And I would love some instructions with distro installation (I've chosen Ubuntu, as It's the most supported, plus my dad is a software developer on Linux, and most familiar with it), bios upgrade, downloading drivers (I've heard there are some complications with drivers on Linux), and after that, setting up Steam with proton.

Struggling with Witcher 3

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 30. August 2024 - 15:26

Despite having decent specs my PC still struggles with Witcher 3. Everything is either disabled or set to low. Is it Proton's fault? CD Projekt doesn't provide native support for Linux mashines.

OS: Ubuntu
RAM: 8 GB
CPU: Intel core i5
Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650.

Razer Blade 16 (2023) Screen Artifacting/Tearing

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 30. August 2024 - 14:07

Time Appropriate Greetings!

I'm starting to come up with a lack of ideas on handling the issue with my new laptop. So, I have tried out a few OS and settled on Fedora 40 as my primary OS. I do dual boot to Windows for work reasons. For the most part, the laptop is solid, but when I start gaming, I typically find the screen beginning to flicker/tear/artifact after 5-15 minutes into the game! For perspective, I am playing Deep Rock Survival, so it's not the most intense game out there. I have tried both Gnome and KDE, and both experience the same issue. At first, I thought maybe it was because the laptop GPU was getting to hot or going bad, but I switched over to Windows 11 and let it run Furmark 2 for over an hour and not a single issue. In Fedora, the team never passed 60 degrees; Furmark was well into the 80 degrees. So, I have a software driver on Linux.

Current Setup

  • The laptop GPU is set to dynamic graphics (Intel + Nvidia)
  • It's a Mini LED with the 4k and HD panel controlled via the bios, I have it set to 4k.
  • Nvidia 560 drivers are installed
  • . The latest versions of both Gnome and KDE are installed
  • I have tried out both x11 and Wayland, but there is no difference.
  • Kernel 6.10.6-200
  • Not sure if it matters, but Windows and Linux are completely separated each being on their own 1TD nvme.

Any idea how I might be better able to hunt down what is causing the issue?

Does the new Windows 11 24H2 Insider Preview leave Linux completely in the dust?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 30. August 2024 - 12:03

As many of you may know, Linux can be faster than windows in many titles especially with AMD GPUs and the highly flexible and mature Mesa RADV driver. But in the recent events around zen 5 and the conflicting results from YouTube tech-channels and the official ones, AMD began to investigate into zen 5's slower windows performance vs Linux.

Shortly after that AMD has found something really odd in windows, that seemingly holds back the performance of AMD CPUs specifically. After AMD patched a "Specific Branch Prediction Code" in Windows, suddenly AMD's zen 4 and zen 5 gained incredible speeds, in some cases even more than 30%!!!

https://youtu.be/rlfTHCzBnnQ?feature=shared

After the Windows 11 patch for Ryzen 5

This is very impressive to say the least, but brings up many questions. Like why intel CPUs weren't affected by those windows flaws that much. And did those give intel an unfair advantage over AMD CPUs in the past, meaning could the latter have been even way faster than they are already?

However to Linux Gamers the bigger question may be: Is that new Windows 11 24H2 insider preview or KB5041587 Update for Windows 11 23H2 respectively going to give Windows an unassailable lead over Linux? Or are the improvements and finds of AMD also applicable to LInux, so that we can enjoy those performance gains as well? What do you think? Have you already made some updated windows vs linux benchmarks?

Whelp. There goes most of my saves.

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 30. August 2024 - 11:11

This is incredibly disheartening to find out after shredding my hard drives for clean paritions. /.local/share/Steam isn't in my backups at all and I didn't realize until it was too late. It wasn't even in the folders to ignore. I've probably lost 3 years of saves there with no way of recovering. :(
