Farming Simulator 25 not launching

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 4 Nov 2025 - 8:22pm

I have recently set up my PC with EndeavourOS (Mercury Neo 2025.03.19) and Farming Simulator 25 does not boot up from Steam. I installed Steam through Flatpak if that matters.

I tried switching to Proton Versions V9.0-4 (as seen on protondb) and Experimental.

GPU: AMD RX6800XT
CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 7600

When i click on play, it says launching for a few seconds, then it says running. A few seconds later it goes back to not playing, so the launch button turns green again as if it immediately crashes.

Poor Performance on VR in Linux

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 4 Nov 2025 - 8:17pm

So to resume my issue, I noticed that my performance in vr is pretty poor, using VRChat as a game basis, my previous configuration was an RTX 2060 and i9 9900K on W10 and it ran on average at 30-45 FPS, I later on upgrade to an RX 6750 XT and switch to Arch Linux and in most lobbies I end up being caped at 21 FPS somehow, using the latest proton and proton GE RTSP, the settings I use are the same graphically as the RTX 2060

My PSU is 80 Gold 750W Corsair RM750 (pre ATX 3.0)

A little help to get more performance out of stronger hardware would be good

I use Wivrn for the quest link to the PC

It's finally happening! Into The Grid, our indie game about hacking megacorps and exploring cyberspace is launching on Early Access in less than a week! Including native support for linux from day 0. Also, giveaway info inside!

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 4 Nov 2025 - 7:42pm

We have been working on Into The Grid for more than 3 years now with a team of more than 10 people, all friends and family.

The game has been supported on Linux since the early development, including prototypes and demos, and the release version will be no less. And it's actually the main platform I play it on.

If you like card games, or dungeon crawlers, or even tabletop games, this may be your cup of tea!

We are also running a giveaway for 3 keys to the game on release day! :)

If you have any questions I'm always around for a quick chat!

Cheers ;)

Huge issues with Path of Exile

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 4 Nov 2025 - 7:33pm

Hey, I'm running Fedora 42 with KDE Plasma using KWin wayland on a Ryzen 7 5700x3d and a RX6800.

I'm having issues with Path of Exile 1. As soon as there are lots and lots of monster being rendered the game comes to a literal 1 FPS and the CPU frame time goes up to 1200+ MS. For those knowledgeable about POE this occurs every single time I try to run Blight encounters and sometimes even in ritual. This is with the game running on Vulcan (DX12 crashes the mesa driver for me) and I've tried mulitple proton verions and a bunch of launch options with no difference.

Here's a snap of btop while it's going on:

Here's a clip of how the game looks when it triggers (with metrics top right):

Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'd really hate having to install windows for just one game.

Core parking on dual CCD x3d cpu being overly aggressive?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 4 Nov 2025 - 7:16pm

Just bought a 9950x3d and have been noticing some strange behavior on linux with it. It seems like when I'm using gamemode it does automatically pin the game properly to my cache cores, which is good HOWEVER when my game is compiling shaders it literally refuses to use the other 8 cores entirely. The CPU will go up to EXACTLY 50% usage when it's compiling. Is there a way to make this more intelligent, I know the x3d schedule driver is included with kernel 6.14 (I'm on 6.17) and I'm using feral gamemode to activate it, afaik.

If anyone knows another or better way of doing this I'd love to know, sometimes I want my game to use all 16 cores, TY

Just bought RDR 2 and it runs like a crape on my device.

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 4 Nov 2025 - 6:21pm

I'm having a serious issue running Red Dead Redemption 2 on Fedora. I've tried Proton Experimental, Proton 9.0-4 stable, and multiple Proton GE versions, but the problem is the same across all of them. The game boots extremely slowly at first (likely shader compilation) and when it finally loads, the audio plays normally but the graphics are completely broken and corrupted. GPU usage stays at 0% according to MangoHUD.

This is the only game giving me this issue. Cyberpunk 2077, Resident Evil Village, RE4 Remake, and The Last of Us Part II all run perfectly fine on this system using Proton.

My specs:

  • Ryzen 5 8600G
  • Radeon 760M iGPU (UMA Frame Buffer: 8GB)
  • 32 GB DDR5 6000 MHz RAM (dual channel)
  • 1TB WD Blue Gen4 NVMe SSD

Has anyone running Fedora experienced this specifically with RDR2? Is this possibly a Mesa issue with Fedora 42? Any working configuration advice would be appreciated.

EU5 works fine on my Linux box.

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 4 Nov 2025 - 6:10pm

It also works perfectly with ibus (ibus-hangul). I was a bit worried when Paradox announced it as Windows-only, but it runs just fine.
Huge thanks to the Linux community and all FOSS developers!

Nvidia driver: 580.105.08

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 4 Nov 2025 - 5:02pm
  • Added a new environment variable, CUDA_DISABLE_PERF_BOOST, to allow for disabling the default behavior of boosting the GPU to a higher power state when running CUDA applications. Setting this environment variable to '1' will disable the boost.
  • Fixed an issue that caused the vfio-pci module to soft lockup after powering off a VM with passed-through NVIDIA GPUs.
  • Fixed a recent regression which prevented HDMI FRL from working after hot unplugging and replugging a display.
  • Fixed a bug that caused Rage2 to crash when loading the game menu: https://forums.developer.nvidia.com/t/rage-2-crashes-when-entering-the-map-seems-nvidia-specific-problem/169063
  • Fixed a bug that caused Metro Exodus EE to crash: https://forums.developer.nvidia.com/t/580-release-feedback-discussion/341205/53
  • Fixed a bug that allowed VRR to be enabled on some modes where it isn't actually possible, leading to a black screen.
  • Fixed a bug that could cause some HDMI displays to remain blank after unplugging and re-plugging the display.
  • Fixed an issue that would prevent large resolution or high refresh rate modes like 7680x2160p@240hz from being available when using HDMI FRL or DisplayPort.

Reminder that this is a minor release on the 580 production branch, important changes (like the DX12 performance fix) will come in a new beta release.

GOG linux games installer

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 4 Nov 2025 - 2:42pm

Do games that sold on GOG typically install only to a user folder? I am referring to those that states 'supported on linux', which I assume do not require WINE or any emulation.

Do they typically require root and install into system folders?

TIA

Does anyone have solid guide how to install Vortex for modding skyrim on linux (ubuntu/popos)?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 4 Nov 2025 - 2:40pm

I was researching for hours and every guide I could find was incomplete or not working o had disclaimer that for skyrim some other things might be necessary. Is there some robust guide that will work for any modpack? I would use MO2, but I want to install gate to sovngarde modpack which is 1800 mods plus so I'd rather do it as author intended and I'm not familiar with MO2.
