PSA: The newly released "Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War - Definitive Edition" works OOB on Linux however the Multiplayer desyncs after a few Minutes every time.

Let's hope the Devs fix that or at least we get help via Proton Experimental or Proton-GE :/

Keyboard "doesn't work" in Escape Goat1,2

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 15 Aug 2025 - 12:15pm

Hey, I have the same problem with the native Linux version of Escape Goat and Escape Goat 2. When I run the game, I get a nag screen about an Xbox controller being recommended and that I should press Start. I press Enter and it lets me through to the main menu, so clearly keyboard is detected.**However**, I can't move the cursor with keyboard to select another menu item, or even press Enter to start the game! I don't know how to fix this. I tried looking for odd messages in the text console where I type the command to run the game, but there's nothing keyboard-related.

I know I could work around this by downloading a Windows installer and then playing the game through wine, but now after finishing everything in Escape Goat except for Heart of Insanity, I'm annoyed. There should be a way to fix this.

I'm currently on Debian 11. I'm running the game from GOG (I don't use any Galaxy middleware etc.)

Is there a spiritual successor for Intel's Clear Linux OS?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 15 Aug 2025 - 11:24am

Now that Intel stopped Clear Linux OS, is there a spiritual successor to it?

What I'm basically looking for is a Linux OS that works as good as Clear Linux OS did with Intels hardware, especially Intel CPU + Intel GPU (ARC)

Auto-mounted drives using Gnome Disk are now super slow

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 15 Aug 2025 - 10:49am

I cannot find a clear answer to this. I want to have the drives auto mount and of course I don't want them super slow.

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 15 Aug 2025 - 10:31am

Hey, just wondering if such a laptop exists? Is it possible to cram a discrete GPU into a small form factor Linux laptop? It doesn't have to be the absolute best GPU ever but looking for better than integrated graphics really.

Ta!

Deep Rock Galactic not responding when its the active window

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 15 Aug 2025 - 9:55am

when i wanted to play DRG (Deep Rock Galactic) yesterday on my laptop, wich uses OpenSUSE Tumbleweed with Gnome on Wayland, it didnt wanna work right.

the game opens, shows the developer logo's and then it just stays at a black screen instead of showing the DRG splash screen.

the splashscreen does appear when i alt tab, but when i try interacting with the game, nothing happens.

the imputs get registered, but the immage itself is frozen.

when i alt tab to lets say firefox and view all open windows, drg works perfectly fine, until i make it the active window and then it goes right back to not working.

i did an update yesterday afternoon, wich fixed the issue, but this morning the issue is back.

i allready tried rebooting, switching off of proton experimental, i tried verifiying the files and even reinstalled the game but nothing works.

any idea's on how to fix this?

Wither 3 poor preformance

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 15 Aug 2025 - 7:22am

I just recently started using arch linux on my dualbooting laptop with windows time now and have noticed that witcher 3 runs way worse on arch than on windows. Even with the lowest graphics preset it run without lagging. I haven't done a lot of research about this, but from what I have read I thought that games that run on linux shoud run better than on windows or at least just as good. Would apprecieate some insight or tips how to get better preformance.

Another roadblock for Linux Gaming down. Dolby Atmos support through pipewire.

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 15 Aug 2025 - 7:11am

I have put together a 7.1.4 virtual surround configuration file and it shockingly works in helldivers 2 and other games that support dolby atmos. This doesn't appear to work in the media players that I've tried(so submit an issue request potentially). Be sure to tune the control values to your preference!!!

Does GTA IV work?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 15 Aug 2025 - 5:17am

Title. I play GTA V a lot, and just finally bought GTA IV to play through that game as well for the story aspect of it.

GTA V has BattlEye, which would ban my online account instantly because it freaks out when it sees Linux. I do NOT want to get banned, as my Rockstar account is already on thin ice for modding GTA V. I've been banned once already.

I want to play GTA IV, but my Windows drive is currently full. If it'll install and work on Linux without getting me banned or setting up any other red flags for Rockstar, then I'll just download it there.

Any advice is appreciated, thanks!
