Fedora 42 Workstation - Games on Steam (flatpak and rpm) - Cursor grabbing issue

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 22 May 2025 - 4:15pm

Hello everyone.

I'm not an expert on Linux, so I'll just say I've been using it for a bit, but I'm not very experienced with dealing with these sort of issues.,

I run a dual-monitor setup - 1920x1080 60hz and a 1920x1080 75hz. Whenever I launch a game that has a cursor (example Tropico 6, Monster Hunter World), in fullscreen mode (i've made sure it was on Fullscreen), the cursor leaves the fullscreen into the adjacent monitor.

My setup is with main monitor on the right and side monitor on the left.

In Monster Hunter something interesting happens. When I'm playing in a fight, where there is no virtual cursor, everything is fine. When i enter a menu, where the game cursor appears, it can leave the fullscreen.

I've searched and mutiple people have this issue with Wayland from my understanding. I've tried several solutions such as the gamescope grab cursor and such commands, but nothing seems to fix it.

I previously ran Linux Mint and didn't have these issues with X11.

Anyone has a solution for this?

Battlefront 2 through steam crashes after starting

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 22 May 2025 - 3:54pm

If I start Battlefront II via Steam, it opens the EA App, runs the EA App installer and then proceeds to open the EA App and show a Windows saying "preparing game". That window then dissapears and the EA App minimizes. One or two minutes later the EA App shortly opens and then crashes.

I have already tried all Proton versions form 6 to 10, GE Proton 7-55, GE Proton 10-3, Hotfix and Experimental, some crash the game earlier, some later.

I also tried using Proton 7 while installing the EA App, then stopping the game and using Experimental to start the game. That actually worked once, but the game didnt detect my keyboard, only my controller and upon restarting the game/trying this again it didnt work anymore.

Running the game/EA App through Lutris isnt really an option as the play button in the EA App is just grayed out and there being no install option due to the game being managed by Steam.

I Also already tried switching from Wayland (Hyprland) to Gnome under XOrg with no effect.

Does anyone know how I can get the game to run consistently?

L4D2 SE Linux warning?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 22 May 2025 - 3:12pm

I've been getting this warning here and there when playing L4D2 on my Fedora40 machine.

Is this indicative of an exploit attempt or just some "glitchiness" in the software stack?

BEGIN========= SELinux is preventing hl2_linux from using the execheap access on a process.

***** Plugin allow_execheap (53.1 confidence) suggests ********************

If you do not think hl2_linux should need to map heap memory that is both writable and executable. Then you need to report a bug. This is a potentially dangerous access. Do contact your security administrator and report this issue.

***** Plugin catchall_boolean (42.6 confidence) suggests ******************

If you want to allow selinuxuser to execheap Then you must tell SELinux about this by enabling the 'selinuxuser_execheap' boolean.

Do setsebool -P selinuxuser_execheap 1

***** Plugin catchall (5.76 confidence) suggests **************************

If you believe that hl2_linux should be allowed execheap access on processes labeled unconfined_t by default. Then you should report this as a bug. You can generate a local policy module to allow this access. Do allow this access for now by executing:

ausearch -c 'hl2_linux' --raw | audit2allow -M my-hl2linux semodule -X 300 -i my-hl2linux.pp

9070XT experience so far?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 22 May 2025 - 2:31pm

I decided to just stick with windows for the first few days so I can test out some of the AAA games I missed out on from the last few years, but windows 11 is already pissing me off left and right and I'm really missing Linux. Im away from home so I don't have any of spare drive to swap in.

I just wanted to find out what the experience is like currently and any tips I should know. I'm making a post because most of the information I'm finding is like days after launch.

I'm partial to EndeavourOS / Arch in general

Xbox Gamepass on Single passthrough VM?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 22 May 2025 - 2:01pm

Xbox Gamepass was a really good option as a broke gamer, i usaully buy my games from Steam, but most day 1 games i couldn't buy it cuz i wouldn't spend 70$ on every game i wanna play, until say it's a year ago now it can have a good discount. So is Single passthrough VM a usable option? I mean for gaming, is even Xbox app detect if it's an VM or not?

If anyone has experienced with this please spread it.
