TF2 mods not working
All the mods I install from gamebanana don't work, is it because of Linux?? Not even the HUD I install worked

Finally figured out how to transfer Steam Guard to any device (root required)
So I've been working on this for a while and managed to develop a method to extract Steam Guard and put it on literally any phone or computer using root access. I could write up a detailed guide but honestly just curious if anyone would actually need this first.
Long story short - I needed this for some personal reasons and after trying different approaches, I finally got it working using root tools and SDA. Even wrote my own Python script that connects directly to Steam's servers using SDA's mafiles to generate the codes and handle login.
What I basically did was extract the Steam Guard from my phone and emulate it from my computer - kinda like how SDA works but I can run it simultaneously on both mobile and PC.
This way I can put Steam Guard on any device without having to transfer it the traditional way. Pretty neat imo.
Word of warning though - if you're not careful with these files, someone could potentially get full control of your Steam account. So definitely not something to mess around with if you don't know what you're doing.
I've got videos and screenshots showing how it looks in action. Anyone interested in seeing more or want me to put together a tutorial?
Edit: For those asking - yes this works with any Steam account, not just mine. The method extracts the authenticator data that Steam uses to generate the 2FA codes

Oculus CV1, is it possible?
I'm on Fedora KDE, using an NVIDIA GPU. and VR is the only reason I keep my Windows partition now days.
Has anyone here successfully used the Oculus Rift CV1 on Fedora and can point it the right direction?
If it's just no possible, what VR headset's do work on Fedora/Linux?

CoreCtrl is not showing voltage slider
I installed corectrl on ubuntu 24.04 using following commands:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ernstp/mesarc sudo apt update sudo apt install corectrlThen I followed steps given on setup page.
Still Corectrl does not show me voltage slider:
Currently it installed 1.5.0-dev. Earlier I installed it with just sudo apt install corectrl, that is without adding mesarc repository. It installed older version of corectrl. Still it did not show voltage slider.
What I am missing?

Sleep/Resume issue when game running
Hi everyone! I've just installed CachyOS on my main desktop, to complete my full-transfer-on-linux way, and I stuck with a problem.
I just went to do home stuff and left my desktop running DMC. Computer went to sleep, and after I got back - it didn't respond. Just a blank screen and that's all.
I also found that it could be because of Nvidia drivers.
Is there any fix of this issue? Maybe if I change to Fedora/PopOS/Ubuntu etc.?

Question about the current State of the Arc B580 on Linux
Hello, I'm thinking about getting a B580 for my Linux system. I did some research and found a lot of problems, but all the information I found was from 4-5 months ago. Has the situation improved? Can I use the B580 on Linux now without too many issues? should i stick to AMD?
Fedora + Gnome btw

Gaming mouse configuration guidance
Something ate my post, great. It's probably on the mouse. :v
Anyway. I've looked around quite a bit, and while trying both libratbag (by itself) and Solaar, both of them have the same kind of issue. I couldn't retrieve any info on what buttons are detected on my G502 HERO Logitech mouse, and what I can assign them as.
I do NOT need macros, extra profiles, or dpi changes. I just want the buttons to register as their own thing ("mouse 4", "mouse 5" and so on) so I can map them as needed in whatever I'm playing, or to unused keyboard keys for the same reason. (F13-F24)
The info I could get from button detection with each program was very limited, so I ended up drawing a blank when looking at them. Best I could do was map two buttons to scroll lock and pause through the official software on windows and that was it. There's still 4~6 more buttons I can use and wasn't able to touch yet.

QHD Borderless Games + Scaled 2nd Monitor = Wrong Resolution. How do you handle? (Arch/AMD)
Hey,
My Setup:
- CatchyOS (Arch-based)
- AMD CPU & GPU
- Primary Monitor: QHD (2560x1440)
- Secondary Monitor: Set to 150% fractional scaling
- I am using Plasma, echo $XDG_SESSION_TYPE shows Wayland
The Problem: When I use 150% scaling on my secondary monitor, borderless windowed games on my primary QHD monitor often default to, or only "see," 3840x2160 instead of their native 2560x1440.
Gamescope Fixes It: I've found that launching games through Gamescope correctly forces the 2560x1440 resolution in borderless mode on my primary display.
My Question to You: For those with similar multi-monitor fractional scaling setups causing resolution headaches in (borderless) games:
- Do you rely on Gamescope? If so, have you noticed any significant performance impact, especially on an all-AMD system?
- Do you opt to disable scaling on your secondary monitor (and just live with tiny UI elements there)?
- Are there any other workarounds or display/DE settings you've found effective for this specific issue?
I'm trying to weigh the convenience of Gamescope (and keeping my secondary monitor comfortably scaled) against any potential performance hit or complexity.

Best Linux distro for full-time use on low-end hardware
Hey folks,
I’m planning to fully switch from Windows to Linux and I’m looking for advice on the best distro for my setup. While my CPU and GPU are quite old, I do have 32GB of DDR3 RAM, so I’m hoping that helps balance things out.
My specs:
- CPU: AMD FX-6100
- GPU: NVIDIA GTX 750 2GB
- RAM: 32GB DDR3
- Storage: 1 SSD (currently running Windows), 2 additional HDDs
I’ll be using the system for gaming (not just low-end titles), programming, music production (mainly recording vocals), and video editing. I want something stable, relatively lightweight (but not too barebones), with good NVIDIA driver support and decent multimedia performance.
I’m not against using distros with heavier desktop environments if they run well, but I’m open to XFCE, KDE, or even something more minimal if that helps performance.
Any recommendations on distros, desktop environments, or tips to get the best performance out of

How to support open source games?
If you ask me then we only have a few decent open source games such as (but not limited to) Wayland and 0ad.
My question is how can we as a community help making more of those ?

Debian 13 "Trixie" Now In Hard Freeze: MIPS64EL Demoted, RISC-V 64-bit Promoted
Problems with binding ÅÄÖ in games.
Hi all!
I use GNOME on Fedora 42 and recently switched to the dvorak-layout. And I stumbled upon an unexpected issue, the keys (ÅÄÖ) which on the swedish dvorak layout replace QWE, are often unbindable in games. And when I do manage to bind them, they are never registered in game as ÅÄÖ, instead as the ANSI keys they normally replace ([ and : and ').
My first thought was a problem with the layout, but the keyboard layout I have selected shows ÅÄÖ, as does pressing the keys in xev. I did not have this problem on the same games on windows with dvorak, so it seems a Linux issue.
As of now I have to swap to QWERTY every time I want to game, which is tedious.
Does anyone know of a solution?

9070 XT Issues
I was running Fedora 42 and Bazzite using 9070 XT and was running into a few issues that drove me nuts. I had to switch back to Windows for now but plan on going back eventually. The issues I ran into are:
Mouse would lag horribly once I exited a game. I would need to reboot to fix it. Typing was not affecting nor was over all system performance.
When playing Monster Hunter World the in game HDR was disabled even when the system HDR was enabled. I couldn't find a fix for this.
Emulation gaming was stuttering (most notable Dolphin) no matter how low the graphical settings were. Tried the same exact settings on Windows and no issues.
I previously had an older AMD (7900XT) and Nvidia (3070) installed and never ran into these issues. So I'm leaning towards the Mesa drivers need to catch up with the 9070 XT. Is this more of a version 42 issues? Is anyone running 41 having issues while using a 9070XT?

ASUS ROG ALLY Z1 XTREME
Just a question for the community. How many that have either the ASUS ROG ALLY Z1 XTREME or the Ally X have installed Linux on it and by that I mean the non-SteamOS version?
I'm curious to try it out because I want a full version of Linux that isn't the SteamOS variant to be able to live stream to Twitch and YouTube as well!
Thanks in advance!!

Cannot boot Linux
Hello, I've followed guides and tutorials on youtube and the web to install Linux distros (in this case, Nobara.) But I cannot boot it for the life of me. I have used Rufus to put the iso in the USB stick. I cannot find the usb stick in the boot options. Someone please help.
My laptop is similar to this, if anyone needs it. https://rog.asus.com/laptops/rog-strix/2021-rog-strix-g17-series/
