My game starts up invisible and I don't know how to fix it, please help
I'm a newbie to linux and just recently switched to linux mint from windows yesterday. I've managed to get most things working and all stuff regarding browsing and casual usage is all good. It's just that with this game, it somehow just doesn't show up? Like it works, at the very end and the audio and stuff plays. The mouse cursor even changes and I could click around with the UI. Just no window for some reason.
I did manage to find a roundabout fix. I found that I could set it to windowed in the launcher and it would open up fine. Then I could even switch it back to fullscreen when I'm in game and play the game normally.
However, I don't really want to have to set it back to windowed then fullscreen again each time I open up the game. So I was hoping if someone could help me find a way to fix this. I tried installing the steam port of the game but it still had the same issue. I also tried adding it as a non-steam game and still no.
I'm really stumped on this one. If someone can provide a fix, I would really appreciate it! I'm currently enjoying linux so far and I'm quite liking my customizations.

No abre Genshin Impact en Linux
Hola gente como están? e estado intentando entrar al juego desde hace unos días y siempre me pasa lo mismo lo descargué desde Epic Games usando Heroic Launcher y pronton 10 como base y abre el launcher de Genshin pero al darle iniciar juego no lo abre, estoy en Nobara, otros juego de steam funcionan de 10 y otros juegos descargados desde Epic Games usando Heroic Launcher también funcionan, probé descargar Genshin desde PortProton e igual me pasó, e probado usar otras versiones de proton, por ejemplo GE-Proton9-20, GE-Proton10-25, GE-Proton10-33, GE-Proton10-34, entre otra, probé con UMU-Proton y también me fallo, estuve intentando borrando la configuración pfx dentro de la carpeta de Heroic y tampoco funcionó, ¿Alguna idea que me puedan dar?

Audio issues when running games on bottles
Running some games on bottles using my headset (either Analog Surround Output or Pro Audio) and external speakers the game plays this annoying buzzing sound usually on menus and cutscenes. If I start the game using laptop's build-in speaker and then switch to headset it fixes the problem most of the time.
Games that I had problem with are The godfather: The Game, Alpha Protocol, Red Faction Guerrilla Re-Mars-tered and Call of Duty : Advanced warfare (during heavy-action gameplay).

Pulsar X3 Mini not detected in BBB Web Driver on Linux
I’m trying to get the Pulsar BBB web driver (https://bbb.pulsar.gg/) working on Linux but I’m stuck at device detection.
Distro: CachyOS
Browser: Brave (WebHID supported)
Mouse: Pulsar X3 Mini (1K dongle)
lsusb shows: 3710:5402 Pulsar 1K Dongle
What I’ve done:
Added udev rules:
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ENV{DEVTYPE}=="usb_device", ATTRS{idVendor}=="3710", ATTRS{idProduct}=="5402", MODE:="0660", GROUP="input", TAG+="uaccess" SUBSYSTEM=="hidraw", ATTRS{idVendor}=="3710", ATTRS{idProduct}=="5402", MODE:="0660", GROUP="input", TAG+="uaccess"Reloaded rules + replugged device
Verified device shows up in dmesg as multiple hidraw interfaces (hidraw0–3)
Confirmed user is in input group
Switched from Firefox to Brave (so WebHID should work)
Current issue: BBB site loads fine, “Connect Device” button is clickable but it shows "No compatible devices found"
Right now it looks like Linux exposes the device correctly, but BBB doesn’t recognize it via WebHID. I want to confirm if this is a limitation of the web app or if I’m missing something

Valve has developed kernel patches and user-space tools (like dmemcg-booster and plasma-foreground-booster) to prioritize VRAM for foreground games on low-VRAM Linux systems (e.g. 8GB cards), enabling smoother Vulkan/RADV gameplay such as Cyberpunk 2077
[Fix] Cosmic Byte Blitz Tri mode Controller on Linux (No XInput / Rumble not working)
NOTE: only tried it on new tri mode version of controller as thats what i have.
Problem: when connect with 2.5ghz dongle steam shows as generic device
SOLUTION: just hold "BACK + HOME" , it will vibrate and change input mode and it will appear as xbox controller.
what is back button ? --> buton with ". . . " 3 dots on it at left of home button
confirmation that mode changed:
in generic , 3rd LED is yellow
in xbox mode, 2nd LED is yellow

Gaming experinnce
A few months ago I swapped my 7900 XT for a 4090. I frequently hear people complaining about NVIDIA, but my experience has been the opposite — more games run better on NVIDIA for me.
Grayzone Warfare, my favorite game at the moment, ran like crap on AMD. The game stuttered so much that I couldn’t even move my character one meter without it becoming unplayable. After I installed my new NVIDIA card, all issues disappeared. Has anyone else had a similar experience?
Based on my nvidia experince the nvidia hate on linux seems unfounded for me at least its an better experience then amd
offcorse an 4090 is better but still meny games went from unplayebale on amd to playebale on nvidia

Disco Elysium constantly crashes on Linux Mint (2026)
This is my system as of today:
- OS: Linux Mint 22.3 - Cinnamon (64-bit)
- CPU: 12th Gen Intel© Core™ i5-12500T
- GPU: Intel UHD Graphics 770 (integrated GPU)
- RAM/Memory: 8 GB
- Storage: 512 GB
- Steam version is from the official repository (via sudo install command)
What I checked and tried to do:
- Verified the game files
- Uninstalled and re-installed the game
- Tried all the Proton versions for compatibility
- Checked my drivers for updates (its updated)
- Tried to start the game in low graphics
- Tried various commands like "gamemoderun %command%" and "PROTON_NO_ESYNC=1 %command%" etc
I tried to run the game on Linux for the first time a few months ago, it crashed just like it does now. I've since deleted and re-installed Steam, did everything above, and nothing fixed this issue.
Is my hardware the problem here, or is this game just not stable on Linux/Proton? I also checked on ProtonDB and I'm surprised that it's considered a very compatible game for Linux, I've had the opposite experience so far.
- My system info from terminal output: https://pastebin.com/4zm9kkWC
- Steam Proton Log: https://www.mediafire.com/file/bkqa18lutu1t00f/Disco_Elysium_Proton_Log%252C_April_9%252C_2026.txt/file
Any help would be gladly appreciated, thank you.
