After NVIDIA previously released a Beta script to setup GeForce NOW on Steam Deck, they're about to make it a whole lot better with a native app for full Steam Deck support.

Source: Microsoft's latest search trick: making people believe they are using Google instead of Bing

I am not against Microsoft or any for-profit business. I oppose, like any ordinary user, doing business by cheating on users. Losing the trust of clients is a big mistake.

If Microsoft tricks its users in using Bing in the name of Google, What should we expect from them to grow their Gaming business on Windows? The culture of a company reveals a lot.

It is a good time to remember why Linux transparency is valuable. Thanks for everyone's efforts to witness Gaming on Linux as a viable alternative.

Pretty much what the title says, I recently tried out Zombie Andreas and Gunman Chronicles on Linux with a certain degree of success (some minor bugs with Zombie Andreas) and I was wondering what game do you guys consider that it might not run on Linux?

Let me know!

Cheers!

New Arch install, game worked for one day, now it just says "VAC was unable to verify your game session" and it has been happening for over a week now.

I have already re-installed both Steam and CS2 multiple times, verified game files, started a match offline with bots, changed steam name and pfp, changed ownership of CS files to $USER, etc etc.

Basically, if a fix is available online, I'm pretty sure I've tried it.

I have a feeling it either has to do with a driver, or steam is thinking I'm running the proton version, which I am not. I have quadruple checked that I'm running it natively.

What else can I do here?

Here's my sys info:

• OS: Arch Linux
• KERNEL: 6.12.8-arch1-1
• DE: KDE Plasma 6.2.5
• WM: kwin
• CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D 8-Core
• GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070
• GPU DRIVER: NVIDIA 565.77
• RAM: 32 GB

Hey everyone! I've got a new tutorial for all the Linux Desktop and SteamDeck users out there. I previously posted a tutorial for NFSMW2005+Redux and now I did NFS Carbon with the Redux Mod. The steps should be similar for MAC users as well if you can get lutris.

I've created videos in both English and Spanish, so you can choose the one that works best for you. I hope you find these tutorials helpful!

<ENGLISH: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MAjhDQLkdoI> <SPANISH: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J90xfJjW3kI>

The reason I'm doing this videos is because I really want the linux gaming experience to be more accessible to everyone and for this community to grow, so I plan on doing a lot more tutorials for various games. I'm starting out rn with the ones I like to play (and my potato pc is able to run), but I plan to cover niche cases like CoD BO1,BO2,MW3 Online using the Plutonium Launcher, and MarioKart Wii Online with Retro Rewind.

If you have other recommendations please let me know!

For those that care:

• DLSS 4 announced, generates multiple frames at a time. It can supposedly do AI texture work, decreasing VRAM usage. Blackwell only.

• Reflex 2 with "Frame Warp" announced

• RTX 5070 12GB at $550, your organs for basically everything else(2K for 5090). Claims 4090 performance WITH AI.

• Lots of AI

• Jensen calls people waste.

(Said that automation can decrease waste in GDP then shows an robotic forklift, something usually done by humans. I'm sure he'll get a lot of negative PR from this(not))

Hello, I recently downloaded Halo Infinite and am having an issue. After I sign in with my Microsoft Account, I get the above screen. I haven't figured out a way past it or how to get it to load the proper image/text.
I have tried:

• Different versions of Proton (GE 9-13, Proton 9 and Experimental)
• Verifying my game files
• Searching Proton DB for similar cases
• Selecting all text in the window

No dice with any of these options. My system specs are as follows:

• OS: Linux Mint 21.3
• KERNEL: 6.8.0-45-generic
• CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 7900X 12-Core
• GPU: AMD Radeon RX 7800 XT (radeonsi, navi32, LLVM 15.0.7, DRM 3.57, 6.8.0-45-generic)
• GPU DRIVER: 4.6 Mesa 24.2.3 - kisak-mesa PPA
• RAM: 31 GB

Any help is appreciated; thank you!

Every time I start the game for a new session takes anyway from 5-10 minutes. I looked briefly in protondb but didn't see a mention

so I setup a .desktop file like the Arch wiki says, and added my video and display name to grub kernel params. my steam desktop file calls the following as the exec gamescope -w 3440 -h 1440 -r 144 --adaptive-sync -f -e -- steam -tenfoot

no matter what I get this tearing, I've messed around with the gamescope args, no dice.

I also used Nvidia settings to generate xorg.conf, also no change

Session greeter im using: sddm Nvidia 3080ti Nvidia proprietary drivers dkms

note: everything runs fine including big picture in Hyprland

Bazzite or CachyOS handheld edition? Is their someone who tried this and have some input. Despite people hating on the windows experience on handhelds im okey with it. I just wanna switch since both my Gaming desktop and laptop runs Linux and see no reason to stick with windows on the ally if its not needed. So the question is do i go for bazzite or is their any advantage to go cachy?

Hi everyone,

I've recently start playing Black Myth Wukong and I've decided to try it out in linux as well, the game runs well but nothing compared to windows performance, i couldn't enable Nvidia frame generation, so that's making a big difference, I've tried some of the tinkering steps found in the proton DB page but no luck.

For the graphics both windows and linux are all cinematographic, RT very high at 1440p
DLSS:75

in windows i get like 90-100 fps

in linux, 50-80 (as no frame gen can be applied)

I'd really prefer to play the game in linux as i feel more comftable using it as my main OS, but the difference in performance compared to windows if kinda huge

Am i missing something? Could somebody help me out here?
Thanks you :)

PD: i'll try to add later images of the benchmarking tool comparing both OS in my rig

Some relevant information bellow:

Specs:

Distro:Nobara Linux 41 (KDE Plasma)
Kernel:6.12.7-200.fsync.fc41.x86_64
RAM:32 GB
GPU Driver:NVIDIA 565.77
GPU:NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER
CPU:Intel Core i9-14900KF

Proton version tried

• Hotfix
• Experimental
• GE9-11
• GE9-21
• GE9-22

Launch options tried

• WINE_DISABLE_HARDWARE_SCHEDULING=0 %command%
• PROTON_ENABLE_NVAPI=1 VKD3D_CONFIG=dxr

Recently got a new laptop with decent specs, but I’m struggling with gaming performance, specifically in Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales and *Spider-Man Remastered, (*those are the only 2 games i have tested). Here are the specs:

• OS: Arch Linux (Wayland)
• CPU: Intel Core i7-13620H
• GPU: NVIDIA RTX 4060 (Laptop)
• RAM: 16GB DDR5
• Storage: 512GB SSD

I play both games through Steam with Proton GE, but I’ve been getting pretty poor performance:

• Miles Morales:
  • Max settings with ray tracing: Less than 30 FPS with frequent frame drops
  • Low settings without ray tracing: Less than 40 FPS with the same frequent frame drops
• Spider-Man Remastered:
  • Performance: Around 40-60 FPS with frequent frame drops on both high and low settings
  • I was able to still finish the game like that tho

Here’s the kicker:

• During gameplay, my hardware usage is far from maxed out:
  • GPU Usage: Mostly below 40%
  • CPU Usage: Stays below 70%
  • RAM Usage: Around 9GB
• The only time my GPU hits 100% is when I’m both playing the game and training AI models at the same time. However, even then, the FPS remains the same with no improvement in gaming performance.

I feel like my GPU isn’t being utilized properly for gaming. Could this be an issue with Proton GE(I have also tried proton experimental, no difference), Wayland, or something else? Does anyone have a solution or suggestions to optimize my setup for better gaming performance?

Thanks in advance! Any help would be greatly appreciated.
