Hi, since I'm getting a new PC soon, I started looking for some gaming-focused Linux distros (I still don't know how to configure them) and found these two. (I know there are others, but I liked these two the most).

Which is the best? Or the one that offers the best performance. I think I heard Cachy was good, but Garuda seemed interesting to me, and I don't see it getting much attention. Sorry if it looks like a dumb question, I'm still new to Linux (I'm using Zorin for now).

The video card it's a Rx 6600 btw-

All of my gamepad’s inputs work fine in Steam’s controller test and in the system settings, but in actual games the triggers act really buggy. I also tried a web gamepad tester, and the triggers don’t register at all.

I’m on Arch Linux with KDE Plasma running Wayland, using an 8BitDo Ultimate Bluetooth Controller connected via Dongo.

Run the ReDream emulator with "Steam Linux Runtime". (distrobox or Lutris runtime might also work too). SteamOS 3.7.15 Beta absolutely ruins the performance of the ReDream emulator but running it with the Steam Linux Runtime fixes the issue.

хотелось бы спросить как вы пользуетесь wine в линуксе и как вы его устанавливали, просто я решил замарочится и создать отдельного пользователя под wine, убрать его подальше от папки home чтобы вирусы под действием wine не проникли в корневую папку, я знаю что вирусы которые писались под винду ( точнее под её совместимости) хотя вирусы которые писались на каком-то с++ могут быть опасны даже на линуксе, хотелось бы спросить какой у вас опыт в этом и как я могу ещё обезопасить себя от вредоносного п.о. ( простите если кринге вопрос).

ENGLISH:
I would like to ask how you use Wine in Linux and how you installed it. I decided to go the extra mile and create a separate user for Wine, restricting access to the home folder so that viruses running under Wine cannot penetrate the root folder. I know that viruses written for Windows (or rather, for its compatibility) can be dangerous even on Linux, although viruses written in C++ can also be dangerous. I would like to ask about your experience in this area and how I can further protect myself from malicious software (sorry if this is a silly question).

I seem to be having performance issues running Silksong with the native linux version on Steam. Does anyone have any idea why this may be happening. I do have the drivers install but for some reason I cannot get it to go above 70 fps at 1080p. I have a RTX 3050 6GB so I know it should be able to run this simple game at 144 fps

For some reason my entire PC will turn off after playing the game after about 10-20 minutes.

My PC might be overheating but I haven't experienced this issue in any other game.

I tried lowering the graphics settings, increasing the fan speeds in the bios, and using different Proton versions (GE, Experimental, and 9.0-4) without success.

My specs are:

OS: Pop OS

CPU: Ryzen 7 5800 XT

GPU: RX 6800 XT

16 GB RAM

Can someone tell me if saves between the Linux and the Windows version of Hollow Knight Silksong are the same files?

Can I just copy and paste them between OSs with no problem? I want to get the game on Gog and possibly use the native version :)

I'm looking to play through the MGS series and I'd like to use 2x frame gen on the older games locked to 30 fps though mainly MGS4 as in that case I'd be CPU bound.

If it helps I'm on CachyOS on an RTX 3060, so no smooth motion for me and a quick google search gave me basically nothing.

While we're all desperate to know what the heck the Steam Frame actually is, Valve released SteamOS 3.7.15 Beta "The Sound of Silence".

.

Read the full article on GamingOnLinux.

Hi All,

Even when not needed, I strongly prefer using FSR 3.1 instead of native AA implementations, also considering some artifacts (in my experience shimmering in games is present even without FSR, but the blurry image offered by TAA covers it). I play at 1440p with an RX 6750xt across windows and linux, and obviously I like my high settings.

The problem I often face is that by using FSR at native reselution the performance hit is very noticeable, but at the same time I find the 1.5x scaling factor of "Quality" mode a bit soft.

I experimented with optiscaler a bit to achieve 2 objectives: use the latest FSR dlls in all games, and play around with scaling factors. I found out that 1.3x would be the sweetspot for me. It usually offers performance a bit better with respect to FSR off, but the improved image clarity of FSR and less noticeable artifacts than 1.5x.

The problem is that in recent games swapping FSR version manually is quite simple, even on linux, but I often face some problem in linux when installing optiscaler (windows is easier for this).

Do you know a consistent way to manually override the scaling factors for at least one scaling preset of FSR without using any external tool? is there a file somewhere among the FSR files I can modify to do so? or maybe it is something modifiable in the game settings files?

Does anyone have an idea?

Hello guys. I am a PC gamer. I used to be using the ps3 controller for some games. However, it had a problem with, "randomly pressing buttons" that seems common with PS3 controllers. You can look this up on Google or Youtube. Now I have also lost the cable used to charge it.

I have decided to buy a PS5 controller for 82 dollars, indeed I have already done it.

Do you think it's going to work with PC?

How bad of an idea is this?

Edit the original post had it mistakenly written that I was using a ps4 controller. I was using a ps3 one.

Edit I want to be using a wired connection

OS: Dietpi Bookworm (Debian 12 I think), Desktop Environment: LXDE

Running a Dietpi Bookworm OS on a VM, tried to install Lutris via `sudo apt install lutris` and it worked, but when trying to run it via shortcut, it says that the shortcut isn't valid

Ok, so I change the path to `/usr/games/lutris` and try again, but now there's a popup that says "Do not run Lutris as root"

So now I'm confused and try running it by cmd (`root@dietpii: lutris`) but is get back as `bash: lutris: command not found`, same thing when I run `ls`, even after `cd /usr/games` and trying to run it again, it gives the same "Do not run as root" output

ATP idk what could be the problem, I have wine installed and working normally, phython3 is installed, `sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade` as been ran i'm not sure how many times, I'm tempted just to give up on this OS

If anyone could help that would be cool

Hi!

I am running fallout 4 using lutris and ge-proton-10-12, and there is no reflections for some reason although all relevant settings are enabled and maxed. There is no light reflecting from the angle of the 10-mm pistol and it ruins it all.

Haven't found anything on the issue myself. Any ideas?

I love using bottles for games on my laptop, its very good and better (in my opinion) then others.
But i have no idea how to play vr on it, i hoped for a miracle that using steamvr would just work, nope! Then i did a bit of digging and also tried alvr, also didnt work. Maybe i have to do something but i cant find anything online. Help would be appreciated :)
