Hello everyone,

I finally settled with Ubuntu as my OS for my PC I was able to play Squad and Dota 2 for a few days now all ran flawlessly. Then when I tried to play Arc Raiders it was doing a running loop on steam, I tried to change the comparability as suggested on other Reddit post that I have seen but still it doesn't work. I have a dual boot set up when I tried to run it at Window everything ran smoothly.

I attached a picture and video of the issue and some details about my PC.

well this might seem stupid but i dont know how i can extract/unzip a game file i downloaded its a .zip file and every time i try the "extract here" on mint, it tells me "an error occurred while extracting files. command exited abnormally" every other file looks fine except the exe i think i becomes a text file or something. i have also tried the command "unzip" but it only unzips about 2gb and the file is like 100gb. this only happens with .zip files never .rar.

So usually I use proton GE love it. But there seems to be many different versions of proton. The one I am interested in is proton cachyos. How is it different then Proton GE. What are the difference between Proton (default steam, hotflix, experimental or otherwise), Proton GE(the one made by Glorious Eggroll), Proton Cachyos. Recently I shifted to Chachyos kernel on arch linux since people says the bore kernel is really optimized for gaming. I was thinking if I should switch to cachy proton. What are the difference between them and is there any article or guide i can read for more information?

Soni finally decided to sell my gaming laptop and build a pc again (it's been a while) I'm going all AMD and I just want to know if AMD GPU drivers have a control panel like in windows? I know Nvidia is basically useless on Wayland with just one toggle but does AMD have one or should I stick to volt GUI?

Hi, I've recently been thinking of switching to linux, although the game that i play the most is roblox. I heard that Sober is the only current program that lets you run roblox, although it is a mobile roblox version ported to pc, which kind of got me thinking: do games that don't work on mobile work on Sober? Games such as The Wild West don't allow you in.

Basically, I'm not super knowledgeable on the topic of operating systems. What hope there is to run KLA on Linux? Is it "just" really hard or plain impossible because of how wine works? I guess it COULD work o a VM, but to make it work it would require someone to basically do the same things as cheats do: bypass it somehow. So, is there anyone with some knowledge on this topic that knows if there is any hope for the future?

Edit: I mean windows kernel level anti-cheats with wine or a VM, not Linux KLA. Fuck that

Hello everyone,

I finally decided to go from windows 10 to linux. I've decided to go with linux mint for no particular reasons. I am actually having a dual boot with it because I use my computer a lot for both work / gaming. I've heard that for gaming on linux we needed to use proton, especially proton GE which i added for Rocket league but i feel jitterring.

My question is, maybe you would know why the game feels not fluid ? I've searched online already, tried different proton version, right now its proton GE, i have like 32gb ram ddr5, a RTX 5070 and CPU AMD Ryzen 7 8700F 8-Core Processor

I already tried with fullscreen or not, they both have the same in game parameter which is for performances kinda, but playing on linux doesn't feel fluid.

Is there things I didn't think of ? I watched some videos of things to do when starting linux mint so i checked the kernel update, driver update and added the nvdia driver as well but I'm unsure where to look for now... I heard people saying to change the kernel for some Xander or something like that but im thinking if its not overkill
thanks a lot

I ditched Windows in 2016 and used linux(Arch) for more than 7 years till the moment i purchased a new macbook in 2023.

Now in 2026, i have purchased a LOQ with i7 14th gen HX processor and RTX 5070 GPU. Its kinda beast, and i have purchased it solely for gaming, but honestly I don't want to go back to Windows just for gaming. I want to run Arch on it and run almost 99% of available games in the world.

So, i would like to know your personal experiences about serious gaming on Arch or any other distro?

How's the performance compared to Windows gaming, does it support all the things which RTX 5070 offers such as DLSS 4, Frame gen etc?

Hi everyone, i run faugus launcher on Bazzite, i added the rockstar launcher as an app, and made the login, the rockstar launcher works but don't find the game. I purchased it on Epic Games Store and installed from there.
There's something i can do?

The solution was to reset the controller. You have to press the "hidden" button on the backside of the controller.

v0.1.1 full Steam library imports, achievements, and playtime tracking

Hey everyone, just want to let you know about the v0.1.1 release of my game library manager and launcher Theophany.

This release the focus was on adding full Steam library import, which is done through the Steam Web API. You can easily add your API key, make sure your Steam profile and game details are public, and Theophany will be ready to Import your full library.

In addition you are able to view Steam achievements earned and unearned, as well as per game playtime within the details view.

Theophany supports all your emulators, and ROMS as well with IGDB integration for easy metadata / artwork downloads.

You can download the binary directly from the releases page or pull the source and "cargo run". I'm going to be adding to Flatpak and AUR soon as well.

i recently moved from windows 11 to pop os, and the first thing that i noticed, is when i oppened pro soccer online, my mouse had a limit to go, like, a maximum rotation, srry if i cant explain that well, im brazilian and sometimes its hard for me to explain correctly, but in general, is there somehow i can change the graphics card that i want when i play? like in windows you have the nvidia properties, but i cant find a way to do this on linux, i have a 3050, can someone help me?

OBS: i use a acer nitro v15-51, srry for not putting that as an information

update_1: i think that the switching graphics isnt the issue, because i saw that my pc is using the nvidia gc, but the issue is that, idk why, but my game doesnt let me use my mouse completely, and it stutters badly.
