Gamescope crashing on CachyOS specifically(link is external)
Does anyone know why gamescope doesn't work on CachyOS specifically? I was using Debian Testing before, and gamescope worked wonderfully. However, recently I distrohopped to CachyOS, and everything is fine, except gamescope.
I'm using a laptop with AMD CPU+NVIDIA GPU. I used CachyOS a few months ago too, and I couldn't run gamescope back then too. I thought that maybe, there was something wrong with my installation, or that they just fixed it, but it seems like the issue is still there. I tried posting on their forum link(link is external), and it seems I'm not the only one. Perhaps it's only affecting NVIDIA cards, since it does run on the integrated GPU?
I tried "linux-cachyos-bore-lto-nvidia", "linux-cachyos-bore-lto-nvidia-open", and "nvidia-open-dkms", but none of them worked. I even tried using distrobox to run it, but that didn't work either.

Linux and Windows help(link is external)
I got some money saved for a M.2 SSD and I wanted to do a little change on my PC. Currently I have a 250GB SSD with Windows, Steam and so, and a 1TB HDD with games.
My plan is to add a 500GB / 1TB M2 but keeping the other 2 and I need help on how to organize it. I was thinking on having windows on sdd and linux distro and bootloader on m2 and use the hdd for data shared for both os, but will it cause trouble with NTFS?
Other option is to user the sdd for linux, hdd for data managed on linux and m2 for windows and its data, or use the sdd and hdd for windows and m2 for linux and its data.
My last option is setting up a KVM with windows using the first configuration and maybe the NFTS problems will be solved.
Any suggestions?

Alternative to steelseries.gg(link is external)
Hi, im kinda new to linux in general and i want to switch from windows to linux. While im waiting for Steam os (cuz i mainly use my pc to play videogames), im trying some distros, but there's a single program i need the most, SteelSeries .gg with the "moment" and multiple audio tracks that allow to do a little edit and cut before create a clip. I know about Obs and im waiting for multi audio tracks on the steam clip function. In the end i want know if there's an alternative without using wine...cuz i don't like rely on it for that type of function i need. Thank you in advance

Why is it so difficult to install a game on Debian?(link is external)
I'm afraid of breaking my OS by installing too many applications that totally change the default settings. I already have to install Steam and I couldn't, what can I do? What are the best ways to preserve my OS without having future problems?

How is driver support for the B580 currently?(link is external)
Hi there,
I'm planning to get a PC to finally not have to deal with the NVIDIA driver issues I had on my laptop (NVIDIA Quadro M2000M, driver was breaking all the time...), and I'm torn between the AMD Radeon RX 7600XT and the Intel Arc B580.
AMD does have great Linux support from what I've heard, but the Intel GPU would be quite a bit cheaper (if I manage to get one at MSRP) at pretty much the same performance.
Looking around it seems that the Linux drivers had a few issues at launch, have those issues been ironed out now that it has been out for 1.5 months/are they in a good enough state to recommend getting the B580, are there any noticeable performance differences compared to Windows?
Thanks in advance :)

Low fps and jumping image(link is external)
Hello,
Since a few days I have several problem on my pc. After my research, it may comes from the GPU but I have no idea what to do. It's my first gaming pc.
- Recently when I launch a game (any game) sometimes it runs at 15-20 fps max. Sometimes a reboot is enough to fix it, sometimes it's not.
- Also recently, I have flashes when I watch a video online (youtube, netflix...). Green or black flashes, and the image jumps.
- I got a typo problem on my browser (I tried several brother), I don't know if its related. Sometimes, some letters don't appear, as if they were the same color than the page's background. Sometimes it's scratch or highlited, or some letters are bigger, or strange characters appear on top of the text.
- My monitor doesn't detect the signal from my pc when waking up after a sleep, I have to reboot it completely.
I am so lost that it stress me out. It's my first pc and I have no idea what to do to fix it. My pc is new from late August and it worked fine since the first day, except for the waking up thing. Do you have any suggestion ? I'll be so grateful, thanks

Linux migration(link is external)
Good Morning gents, It's with a great pleasure I announce you I have join the Linux community. Yesterday, I've installed Mint and it works ! I've came here several months ago to get some advices but didn't installed it because of the time required to reinstall everything.
I still feel like a monkey because I don't really understand what I'm doing but so far, I don't have encountered any major issue.
The wifi works, Discord works, Steam works. Im currently downloading my games but my first try with Crusader Kings 3 was successful. I still have another partition with a fresh Windows on it but I'm more than happy to get rid of that Spyware...
Now, I still have to find why Solaar doesn't detects my Logitech headset but I'm confident to be able to play this evening.
Thanks for your help !
