If a peripheral lacks official/unofficial drivers for Linux, would it not work at all?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 9 Sep 2024 - 4:09am

i.e it just doesn't turn on when plugged in? I have several peripherals that lack support as well as accessories I'm planning to get in the future would also lack support

Is there any way to change the boot priority of monitors?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 9 Sep 2024 - 3:36am

If I remember it goes DVI > HDMI > DP and that's just been the biggest pain. any way to change that at all? The post i saw that had referenced it was made in like 2014 in some random forum so I'm just casting that line out again to see if a decade of development has made it possible or not

R2Modman will not launch Rounds, namespaces not enabled for Steam

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 9 Sep 2024 - 2:49am

error for namespaces

I installed r2modman so I could play modded rounds with some friends. I am running ubuntu 24.04 and I did numerous commands to try and enable whatever namespaces are. The game runs normally when I use the steam app, just whenever I try to launch it through r2modman (vers 3.1.49) it doesn't work. It does not work when launching the game vanilla or modded through r2modman.

I referred to this article to try and enable namespaces but to no avail.

the code I ran:

$ sudo sysctl -w kernel.unprivileged_userns_clone=1 kernel.unprivileged_userns_clone = 1 $ echo 'kernel.unprivileged_userns_clone=1' | sudo tee /etc/sysctl.d/00-local-userns.conf $ sudo service procps restart$ echo 'kernel.unprivileged_userns_clone=1' | sudo tee /etc/sysctl.d/00-local-userns.conf $ sudo service procps restart $ sudo sysctl -p /etc/sysctl.d/00-local-userns.conf $ sudo sysctl -p /etc/sysctl.d/00-local-userns.conf

(all the code was from article), it did not work. I would assume namespaces would be enabled on ubuntu anyways.

another error

I also got this error in conjunction with the other one when attempting to load up the game. don't know if it means anything since I can play vanilla games through the steam app.

CS2 performance issues.

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 9 Sep 2024 - 1:45am

I have a laptop with a 4060 GPU and still the game barely runs at 120fps on ALL graphics settings and with stuttering. I have no idea if it's the nvidia drivers or something I've configured wrong. In other less demanding games such as Dead Cells it reaches 200-300 fps on average, although using MangoHud I have noticed that sometimes on loading screens it drops to 17 fps.

What is the Best Budget Friendly Gaming Laptop to Install Linux?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 9 Sep 2024 - 1:40am

Other than buying a laptop with Linux pre-installed, what is the best gaming laptop that is budget friendly to install Linux? I'd rather find one with Radeon RX graphics, but I would be open to Nvidia. It's just that I have to work around it. The distro I am sticking with is Manjaro KDE by the way.

World of Goo 2 won't run while using Nvidia drivers

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 9 Sep 2024 - 1:11am

Hello all, so I'm running into a rather weird issue when trying to play World of Goo 2. I was previously using Nouveau drivers on my computer, and the game launched fine. However, now that I've installed Nvidia's drivers, I get the following error when launching the game:

/usr/bin/AppImageLauncher: /lib64/libcurl.so.4: no version information available (required by /usr/bin/../lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/appimagelauncher/libappimageupdate.so) X Error of failed request: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes) Major opcode of failed request: 150 (GLX) Minor opcode of failed request: 5 (X_GLXMakeCurrent) Serial number of failed request: 213 Current serial number in output stream: 213

The latter two numbers ("213" here) sometimes change, while the others do not.

I'd really appreciate help here; I can run the game with Wine and it works, though it's a laggy and unpleasant experience. And I don't want to go back to using Nouveau, as that doesn't offer sufficient graphical performance for many of the other games I play (and rebooting often seems annoying).

High Memory temp GPU

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 8 Sep 2024 - 11:25pm

I don't think this is right, I have a RX 7600XT using Fedora 40 Workstation, Mem temps are way too high for idle, is this a thermal pad memory repaste needed? if you're able, can you share your stats so I compare, I'm using LACT to see this stats.

How to show down CPU for a game?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 8 Sep 2024 - 8:44pm

I have an old windows game (Axis & Allies Iron Blitz) that I got running in wine via lutris, but it seems to rely somewhat on the clock speed of the cpu - scrolling around the map is insanely fast. At least that's my guess for the cause of the issue. Is there a way to run the game at a lower clock speed in wine?

Proton games will not run at all

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 8 Sep 2024 - 8:32pm

Some basic system info:

OS: Kubuntu 24.04.1 LTS
KERNEL: 6.8.0-41-generic
CPU: 13th Gen Intel Core i7-13700K
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER
GPU DRIVER: NVIDIA 550.107.02
RAM: 32 GB

Previously I had Kubuntu 22.04.4 running on my system and broke some things after some poor decision making on my part so I decided to do a fresh install. Everything was going fine until I reinstalled steam and a windows game to make sure proton was working. No game that uses proton will launch on the system. Trying to launch a game in steam does get the game to the running state before stopping and closing on its own 10 seconds later with no game window launching. Running steam from the console and looking at the output gives this every time a game is run, while this is the proton log.

What boneheaded thing am I forgetting to install? Lutris games are working fine, so I'm assuming wine and the graphics driver are working fine overall. Steam was installed from a deb package. Games are installed on the same drive as the os as ext4.

(Sidenote I know the pastebins are for two different games. My bad, but the output is the same for everygame with only the name and gameid changing.)

Edit: Guessing it might be the errors below, but looking it up only brings up old wine posts and like I said wine itself seems to be running fine.

How to solve stuttering issues?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 8 Sep 2024 - 8:12pm

I play games on Steam with Proton and see a bunch of stuttering issues.
I know its not nesseasrily a Linux problem, but I think some of them are far worse on Linux.
Most lately , Control was stuttering a bit especially on Dx12 mode. Shadow of the Tomb raider had some hiccups.

And most recently Deathloop is just a total mess. Upon loading the game it instantly uses up 11gb out of my 12gb of vram. Extreme stutters and framepacing is all over the place, goes from 100fps to 30fps every other second. Terrible experience

I am using Proton Experimental (Steam default?)
GPU: GTX 2080ti
CPU: Ryzen 5600x
Memory: 32gb 3200mhz
OS: Arch Linux/KDE Plasma Fully up to date

Any tips? Maybe Deathloop Nvidia is just super broken at the moment, can anyone else confirm similar behavior?

Lost the ability to Run Linux on AMD-specific hardware

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 8 Sep 2024 - 8:04pm

Hey guys, so the issue started when I was casually building a house in my own Minecraft server when all the sudden, the whole OS froze on me. I pressed the reset switch on my PC. I let it boot back into the default boot option, which is Arch that I have installed. After I either select the default boot option in Grub, it just hangs indefinitely on the "Booting into Arch Linux" screen. I try as much as I can as I'm on a wild goose chase trying to figure out the problem. I tried booting from a Linux live USB, same problem. I tried flashing new BIOS/UEFI firmware, same problem I rummage through the BIOS settings making sure that secure boot is disabled. whatever Chatgpt recommends. NOTHING works, but Windows boots just fine. I tried booting the USB on some Intel-based computer. It's completely unaffected by the issue.
