Surface Pro 4 Emulation Machine Best Distro?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 9 Jun 2025 - 7:39pm

Hey y'all. I'm pretty new to Linux. I have an old Surface Pro 4 that I want to turn into an emulation machine. It's the Base Intel Core m3-6Y30 4 GB 128 GB Intel HD 515.

I currently have Kubuntu installed with the Surface kernel, but I'm wondering if there would be a better and more minimal distro to install if it's going to purely be an emulation machine.

I have looked into Lakka but I would like to like to have have the Dolphin emulator to install Wii games and I really enjoy using EmulationStation. Also, from my understanding the gaming mode of Bazzite won't work with my old hardware.

Anyone have any recommendations?

Logitech g13 drivers on Linux

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 9 Jun 2025 - 7:22pm

I'm still pretty new on Linux in general and espically on Bazzite. I have a logitech G13 that I use all the time on Windows and would like to use it on Bazzite. I found this https://github.com/Tetz95/linux-g13-driver But I don't know how to install it since Bazzite works differently from Ubuntu which I'm a little more familar with.

I'm actually starting the question if Bazzite is for me. I've found it very frustrating to install things because it is immutable or whatever. Lots of software that works perfect on Mint either just won't install or is an inferior experience. Might just be me being unfamiliar though.

Need help with my VR

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 9 Jun 2025 - 7:12pm

Alright, so let's get to the point, I need help. I successfully connected my VR headset to my PC via the ALVR for Linux, but, whenever I turn it on to connect my headset I get error 102

https://preview.redd.it/z1jv9iedpx5f1.png?width=654&format=png&auto=webp&s=a47aeed15cbc9cb039073489c854a9cf33e6d975

I've tried searching up old forums but I cannot seem to find anything Linux related, everything is for windows, I'm out of options, It used to work in the past, now it doesn't and I know not what to do.
I'd be grateful for any sort of helpful input

Can Bazzite not run Wuthering Waves or am I just that stupid?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 9 Jun 2025 - 7:05pm

So I recently switched from Windows 10 to Bazzite and decided that I wanted to play Wuthering Waves.

However I quickly ran into a few problems. First, I tried to launch wuwa through steam, but it ends itself immediately upon launch (I've tried compatibility with 'Proton 9.0-4', 'Proton Experimental' and 'Proton Hotfix'). So, I thought: "Okay, then I'll try Epic Games". Upon lauch I was hit with a white/empty application with two buttons on the bottom right, each saying "□ □". Hitting either just closes the scene before reloading itself again.

But Lutris looked like it had many different ways to download it so I tried them. First I attempted "Search the Lutris website for installers" which game me three options: "wine 1.1", "wine 1.5.1.0" and "Wavey Launcher 1.0.1". I tried the Wavey Launcher first which seemed to start perfectly fine but upon being prompted to "Download wine" within the launcher, I received an error stating that there's no available space.

So I tried wine 1.1 which actually let me access the installer. Upon installing wuwa, I was greeted with the classic wuwa launcher but it asked to be updated. Refusing just closes the launcher so I had no choice.
Relaunching wuwa then brings me back to the installation interface. Refusing to install makes it so Lutris can't launch it, so I have to overwrite my installation. This, unfortunately sends me back to the white/empty application with 2 buttons. A dead end.

Finally, I tried wine 1.5.1.0 which, once again, seemed promising. It brought me to the installer but Lutris stated to finish the installation but to NOT enter the game. So I finished the installation and hit X. But upon doing so, Lutris, again, refuses to launch it.
So then I tried to start the game after installing it (ignoring Lutris' request). Which, once AGAIN, brought me to the white/empty application with 2 buttons.

I'm lost and don't know what to do. If there is any tech-wizzard among you that knows the solution to my problem, please help.

Heroes of Might and Magic 3 network play not working

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 9 Jun 2025 - 6:01pm

Hi,

Basically, as in the title. I have been trying to prepare for LAN party with homies, so i quickly bought HoMM3 on GOG and installed it using lutrix (the option with HD+). Unfortunately, the TCP/IP options seems not to work.

If any of you know what could be wrong, or help me to log more info for further debugging, I will be thankful if you write your suggestion down in comments.

I almost thought I broke my rx 9070 xt using the valve index on Ubuntu 25.04

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 9 Jun 2025 - 5:23pm

So as the title said, I almost thought I broke my gpu trying to run half life Alyx, the native build crashes and it crashed the whole os, the weird thing after I restarted my pc it only loaded 500 megabytes vram out of the 16 gigabytes vram (I think the gpu is devided into two sections and I think the 16 gigabyte section froze correct me if I'm wrong) and no matter how many times I tried to restart or shut down my pc my gpu doesn't load in correctly, I tried to unplug my valve index and it actually worked, how is it possible that the vr headset froze my gpu even tho I restarted my pc? Any thoughts? And is this even save or I'm lucky that it didn't break my gpu😅😅? I'm scared to try to run vr again now lmao

GE-Proton: Windowed Mode WoW losing mouse

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 9 Jun 2025 - 5:10pm

Hey All!

I have a Fedora 42 with Gnome 48 machine and having an issue with the mouse disappearing after a 20-30s of being in World of Warcraft using GE-Proton 10.3 or 10.4. It's there in game and I can see buttons changing when I hover over them but the actual cursor is missing. Full screen doesn't have the issue, just windowed mode. Also the title bar for the window looks like Windows 95/98 instead of the normal Gnome title bar.

Swapped to wine-10.9-staging-tkg and it has no issues with it. Just feels a little less smooth than GE-Proton.

Anyone have any ideas to get GE to play better in this situation?

CPU: AMD 5600X
GPU: Nvidia 1070ti
Launcher: Lutris

Thanks!
