Nvidia GPU on Linux ?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 2 Oct 2025 - 4:29am

Hi,

I was using Linux maybe one year ago (Linux Mint) but I still had my AMD GPU. Since, I switched to an Nvidia one and I would like to know how its working on Linux before to switch. AMD GPU was good with internal kernel drivers so I didn't had to do anything apart of updating my system.

Should I switch back with my Nvidia GPU ? And what is the difference going to be compared to my old AMD GPU ?

Thanks

Project Zomboid causes entire system to freeze

  • i7-1165G7
  • Iris Xe
  • 6.15.3-arch1-1
  • SwayWM

PZ is the only game this happens with, Game starts and loads fine but about a minute in everything except audio grinds to a halt and I can't exit, switch workspaces, or do anything for a solid 20 seconds, before returning to normal and eventually doing the same thing again a few mins later, multiple system updates (including kernel updates, mesa, etc) have done nothing and I can't find any other posts of people having the same issue, any idea what this could be and has anyone else also experienced this?

Recent problems with wine

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 2 Oct 2025 - 12:11am

Does anybody else got recently some problems with wine? My friend and I do.

The problem is that when I try to open a game (I've tried Deltarune and Pixel Gun 3D) and whenever I'm opening it it just shows a black screen but I have the sound from the game and I can control it I just can't see anything.

My friend said he fresh installed recently and tried running Deltarune and it gave him the same problem (I think).

When looking at the output in the terminal I'm not sure really what is wrong because I don't have anything about graphics or the GPU but maybe it's because I can't really read it that well because I don't have any pointers at what could be the problem with the graphics.

We both use EndeavourOS and updated very recently.

Does anybody had the same experience recently or have some advice or fix for it?

I'm wanting to have an offline backup of all necessary DLLs/components for wine. Is there a simple download link, or do I have to hunt them all down individually?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 1 Oct 2025 - 11:34pm

Basically, I get random internet outages, and I don't want to have to rely on the internet in order to download things like dr3d, vcrun, and other such things that winetricks can automatically download and install for each game.

I have a large backup of a whole bunch of games on an external drive. But a few times I have not been able to get one up and running during an outage because it was lacking some random one of these DLLs/components.

So I ask y'all. Is there a nice single download link, or list of links I can put into jdownloader, that will give me every one of these things that I could ever need? I would prefer not to have to go hunting for them all one at a time if I can help it. I'm a data hoarder because of the internet, so space is not an issue.

Thank you.

k2er and others keymappers type gg mouse and panda mouse don't work in Waydroid. please fix this.

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 1 Oct 2025 - 10:46pm

Hello, r/linux_gaming folks!

I'm on BigLinux and using Waydroid as my main Android player (because #BlueStacksNoLinux), but I'm having a problem that many in the community seem to have: mediocre to completely broken input mapping in games.

I'm using the K2er - Gamepad Keyboard Mapper app (or another Keymapper like Octopus) to map my keyboard and mouse in games, but the input fails.

The Specific Problem:

K2er (or any Keymapper) launches and activates the on-screen overlay.

I can configure the touch targets on the screen.

But when you try to map a keyboard key or a mouse click, the K2er app doesn't register the input, or registers the input erratically.

In short, Waydroid isn't reliably passing keyboard and mouse input from my Linux system to the K2er mapping application running inside the Android container. This makes it impossible to play games that don't require precise mapping (like mobile FPS games, for example).

My setup:

Distribution: BigLinux

Android environment: Waydroid (which uses containers and the host kernel)

Mapper: K2er (or others like Octopus)

Has anyone found a working solution for this in Waydroid?

Is there a Wayland or X11 configuration that helps force input capture?

Is a third-party solution (like using a scrcpy script or similar) necessary to reliably capture input?

Any experience or tips would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Trying to play efootball

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 1 Oct 2025 - 10:39pm

Hi guys. I used to be a gamer a couple years ago. But now I'm just doing casual gaming. My problem relies in that I recently installed steam and wanted to try out efootball, but first when the option panel starts it doesn't recognize my controller, so I decided to try the keyboard. After that the game just didn't start, I keep having just a black window and my computer sounding like trying to fly. Please somebody knows if I have to do something in the steam settings or have happened to anybody else?

Plants vs zombies GOTY crashes

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 1 Oct 2025 - 10:15pm

So this game has been killing my pc putting it into a "fatal machine error" every time I try to run it. I'm being serious I was trying to see what errors come up this time, instead it just froze the game and crashed.

My pc:

ASRockModel: H370M-HDV

Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-9700K CPU @ 3.60GHz

Ubuntu 24.04.3 LTS (64 bit)

This is the journalctl from game launch to crash:

Struggling to run bl4 on my arch Linux set up

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 1 Oct 2025 - 10:06pm

So I have what I think is a really decent system, and I've heard of others with similar hardware faring much better, so I'm so curious why I can't seem to hit 60fps, even on performance FSR (which looks like total dog water btw)

I have a ryzen 5 5700, 32gb 3200 RAM, and a RX 7800xt, and. 500gb nvme SSD

I'm running arch Linux kernel version 6.18.8

I've tried proton hotfix, experimental, and GE 10-15 and 10-17, I've tried setting gamemode with launch options, and have a engine.ini tweak, and still best I can get in combat on the low preset with far performance is 30-45 fps, without turning on frame gen, which looks and feels awful

Is there just something I'm not doing right? The game doesn't even push my GPU past 80% utilization, If anyone has experience with running this game on linux I could really use some help.

Fixing Resolution for Skyrim

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 1 Oct 2025 - 9:57pm

Total noob to linux - I'm running an Arch based distro. I can't set my monitor resolution for skyrim, tried through the games launcher directly and it's not displaying my monitor size & then I've tried through the SkyrimPrefs.ini and that didn't do anything.

OS: Omarchy 3.0.2 GPU: Geforce RTX 2080 Ti Monitor Resolution: 3840x2160

Any help will be greatly appreciated, thanks!

Should I switch to Linux? (I am only using the pc for gaming)

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 1 Oct 2025 - 9:43pm

For context: I am a software engineer and recently I’ve been itching to give Linux a try - the only reason I haven’t yet is gaming... On top of that I am about to vomit at the thought of installing windows 11 and all its spyware. I’ve never liked windows since the end of windows 7 but right now it feels like it’s actively trying to make me throw my mouse through the screen every few minutes.

I just bought a new system and am seriously considering just switching to Linux. I don’t play games that require anti-cheat. I mostly play single player titles and I play a mix of old, new, AAA and indie titles (so I guess a bit of everything 😀). I don’t mind tinkering a bit with a system but I imagine if I have to spend a few days to get a new title “mostly” working that would frustrate me.

TLDR: How good is Linux for gaming right now?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 1 Oct 2025 - 9:41pm

This distro is very good for games too. Too top.

Good news! MARVEL Cosmic Invasion has a native Linux build (demo available now)

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 1 Oct 2025 - 8:28pm

We’ve got to give credit to the devs and publishers when this happens. Sure, the game would’ve run fine on Proton, but instead of taking the easy route, they built a native Vulkan version for Linux. Props to Dotemu and Tribute Games for the support!

What's the current state of mods in Linux gaming?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 1 Oct 2025 - 8:27pm

I run Bazzite on one machine, and CachyOS on another, but I have never really been a person that plays game mods. But I saw someone post a video of a GTA IV mod today that seemed to fix a lot of issues that the PC version of the game had, and it got me wondering. What does modding look like on Linux? Is it even possible? If so, what does the process look like to add mods to a game? I know this is a big topic, so I understand that there's no single way of steps to "do mods" but I wanted to get a general sense of what the process is like if you're gaming on Linux. Thanks!
