I am building a new PC with an amd cpu/gpu. I heard that amd products run particularly well on linux systems, but that performance is negated by the performance impact of Proton.

I could use some insight into whether swapping to linux is worth the effort. Any glaring issues or troubles with gaming? Also curious to know how I would handle driver settings, freesync, and fps limiting without amd software.

Eu já testei diversas formas de habilitar o Mango Hud junto com o Bazzite ao inicar, mas sem suscesso infelizmente. Coloquei as linhas de comando nas propiedades do game dentro da Steam, fui tbm em "editar aplicativo" nas opçoes do KDE e adicionei a linha de comando, tentei pelo goverley e nada. Porém se eu trocar pro modo área de trabalho e iniciar o game no modo desktop o mango hud funciona, mas se eu reiniciar a máquina ou voltar pro modo game ele não funciona, é como se não tivesse configuração nenhuma. Eu só queria travar o meu fps em 40 nos jogos mais pesados.

Just found out the Skyblivion installer needs to verify that both oblivion and Skyrim are installed and genuine. I imagine having them contained in separate prefixes is going to cause problems so time to start experimenting.

I know I can do this on Lutris with the GOG version. So if I need to buy Skyrim again then so be it 🤷‍♂️

Hi, I'm running The King of Fighters XIV on Arch Linux with an AMD GPU (RX 9070 XT). Proton 10.0-3 & Proton-GE 10-25. The game crashes whenever Steam attempts to start. The log shows:

Assertion Failed: Failed to load "libnvidia-ml.so.1"

Is anyone else with AMD experiencing this? Any known tinker steps or fixes? Attaching the relevant log excerpt.

Tyr, the Rust-based driver for Arm Mali GPUs, continues to rapidly progress, and the prototype now runs GNOME, Weston, and even full-screen 3D games like SuperTuxKart! 🔥

Hello,

i'm fairly new to gaming on linux having used it on and off for the past 7 years (mainly mint).

I did a fresh install of Debian 13 with the Linux 6.12.57+deb13-amd64 kernel.

Installed Steam via the official website on my main drive but the games on a separate location (btfrs formated SSD)

The issue: none of my Steam Games (Overwatch, CS2, Destiny 2, Terraria, Paladins, Marvel Rivals, The Witcher 3, Anno 1404 etc.) either dont start at all or the game starts with a blackscreen and cursor and has the music in the background but no video (overwatch f.ex).

The only game that worked through Steam was Counterstrike Source and Counterstrike.

No Proton used.

GPU: Rx6600xt

i dont really know what else could be of use, i would be happy to provide any logs if i'd know how to rad them out.

Hi Linux Gaming ✌️

Ich sag’s direkt: Ich denke nicht wie ein normaler IT-Mensch. Ich denke Probleme dreidimensional.

Nicht linear. Nicht „wenn x dann y“. Sondern: Zustände, Räume, Übergänge. Wie ein kleiner Kernel-Multiverse-Designer.

Und jahrelang dachte ich, das wäre ein Problem. Bis ich Linux installiert habe.

Da hat’s Klick gemacht.

Ich hab zwei GPUs im Rechner: eine Ryzen-iGPU und eine NVIDIA 4070. Und während alle sagen „GPU passt nur einem OS“, hab ich mich gefragt:

Warum eigentlich? Warum kann ein Treiber nicht wandern? Warum darf Hardware nicht in mehr als einem Zustand leben?

Nicht als Hack, nicht als Trick, sondern als Architektur.

Für mich sind Treiber keine festen Blöcke. Für mich sind Treiber bewegliche Objekte in einem 3D-Raum. Verschiebbar. Bindbar. In superposition, wenn sie noch „schweben“. Und genau dieses Schweben habe ich beim Debuggen gesehen.

Ich hab’s nicht gelesen. Ich hab’s beobachtet.

Und daraus ist etwas entstanden, das ich selbst kaum glauben konnte:

➡️ Linux und Windows gleichzeitig, echte parallele GPU-Übergabe ➡️ 4070 wird live von Linux abgekoppelt ➡️ Windows übernimmt ohne Reboot ➡️ Linux fällt auf iGPU zurück und bleibt am Leben

Kein Reboot. Kein Neustart des Host-Systems. Kein „Kartenwechsel nur beim Booten“.

Sondern: ein Zustand → ein Übergang → ein neuer Zustand. Dynamisch. Mechanisch sauber. Wie ein Raumwechsel.

Für mich fühlt es sich an wie: Ich habe nicht ein Problem gelöst. Ich habe einen Raum entdeckt, in dem die Lösung schon existiert hat.

Und jetzt, wo ich’s einmal gesehen habe, kann ich’s nicht mehr „nicht sehen“.

Ich will das nicht verstecken. Ich will auch nicht angeben. Ich will einfach zeigen, was passiert, wenn man mal nicht 2D denkt, sondern die dritte Achse zulässt.

Unten ist das PoC-Video. Keine Tricks, keine Schnitte. Nur ein Rechner, zwei Betriebssysteme, eine GPU, und ein Übergang, der eigentlich nie hätte funktionieren dürfen.

Peace out — DustInFeel 🐈

Hello, it's time for me to change my RTX 3070 (mainly due to the lack of VRAM).
I decided to buy an RX 9070 XT, which should arrive in a few days.

I have a few questions, as I have always used Nvidia cards and this will be my first AMD one.

Am I correctly oriented and are these the steps:
1. Uninstall Nvidia drivers - sudo apt-get remove --purge '^nvidia-.*'
2. Install mesa (and kisak PPA, as I am using Kubuntu) - sudo add-apt-repository ppa:kisak/kisak-mesa && sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386 && sudo apt update && sudo apt install libgl1-mesa-dri:i386 mesa-vulkan-drivers mesa-vulkan-drivers:i386

I know it's good to have an up-to-date kernel. I am currently using 6.17.8-2-liquorix-amd64. Is it fine?

My other question is related to Flatpak.
I always play my games through Flatpak - Flatpak Steam, Flatpak Heroic, etc.
I like things to be sandboxed.

With Nvidia now, I need to install the following flatpak packages:
runtime/org.freedesktop.Platform.GL.nvidia-580-95-05/x86_64/1.4
runtime/org.freedesktop.Platform.GL32.nvidia-580-95-05/x86_64/1.4
Corresponding to the version of the installed Nvidia driver.

Using an AMD GPU, is there anything similar in terms of Flatpak gaming?

Other thing - are there any special env parameters?
With Nvidia, I often use:
DXVK_ENABLE_NVAPI=1
PROTON_ENABLE_NVAPI=1
PROTON_HIDE_NVIDIA_GPU=0
__GL_SHADER_DISK_CACHE_SKIP_CLEANUP=1

I almost always add these parameters for every game (I'm not sure how up-to-date they are now). My question is, are there any "must have" parameters for AMD GPUs? For example, if I want to take advantage of FSR4, etc.

If you have any additional tips for someone who will be using the combo Linux + AMD GPU for the first time, I would be happy if you shared them. :)

The Nexus Mods app team have rolled out another early release for their in-progress successor to Vortex, with v0.21.1 bringing more improvements.

.

Read the full article on GamingOnLinux.

I thought I had this resolved by updating the kernel to 6.16 and mesa 25 but the game still freeze up.

Has anyone have found a fix with SteamOS? If I switch to bazziteOS will it fix?

Like the title says, I'm thinking about switching. I like Zorin because of is low learning curve coming from W11. I preferred 10, but MS don't care.... I have a decent system, mostly geared for gaming. 7800X3D 9070xt Taichi 64g ram 4tb sad X670e Taichi. I'm a total noob when it comes to Linux besides playing around on an old RaspberryPi2. I an just wondering what kind of issues I will be running into with using my hardware with Linux. Thank you for any info/ advise. The other build in thinking about it Linux Mint.

Been using nobara and it's been great to say the least Now i want to understand in simple terms which package for which apps (disregarding the ones in welcome app)

Like when should I use a flatpak or rpm (dnf) or appimage Is there a better one for all? I've searched but didn't have straight answer Please explain like im a complete incoherent moron

Thanks to all of the playtesters from this subreddit, Pitchforks and Daggers is now out on Steam with a native Linux build.

Pitchforks and Daggers is a court politics drama, that branches based on your decisions.

You will navigate treacherous lords, scheming family members, and angry peasants- all while trying to secure your kingdom’s future.

If this seems interesting to you, please help me by buying and reviewing the game on Steam: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2762740/Pitchforks_and_Daggers/

Thank you to everyone who supported me so far!

Hello everyone, I recently installed Bazzite on my main mini-PC because I've been in a long way of searching the best setup for a desktop-TV gaming environment. I didn´t want to switch to Linux because of the launcher and games compatibility, and because I had all my library well managed on Playnite, but the Playnite full-screen environment was simply not usable enough for me: whatever I tried, it was laggy, and it was uncomfortable to use on the TV.

Well, now I am very happy with how Bazzite works and I think it is perfect for my gaming necessities. I mean, my PC is in a mid-range tier and I cannot play recent releases and heavy AAA games (and normally I am not that interested). But I REALLY miss how easy was the library management on Windows. Just configure Playnite, search for a game and install. This process is much harder on Linux.

I will tell you what I've tried so far:

- Lutris: in paper, it is what I need - connect my gaming libraries, install a game and then add it to Steam for playing on the big screen. Sounds cool, but EA, itch and Ubi connections seems to be broken (at least, I cannot really connect to them or launch the app in Ubisoft case). Also, have near to 0 search or tagging capabilities.

- Heroic: Works a little better, but as far as I know, cannot connect neither ubisoft, EA or itch services

None of them offers the experience that Playnite or GOG Galaxy does. So, the question is, which is the best alternative or what do you use in a daily basis? My dream solution should have these features:

• see all of my game library and search non installed games (steam, epic, gog, amazon, itch, ea and ubi)
• if possible, downloading and installing
• tagging, filtering and advanced search

I could live without the last two points and just use an alternative to search in my whole library. With all the free games, steam purchases and steam family games, I often forget which games do I really have in my collection. The Steam gaming mode is so good that I don´t mind if I just use a library manager, then install my games manually via Lutris, Heroic, Bottles or whatever works, and then add them to Steam.

There is so many options and information and I am a bit lost. I know I can run Playnite and GOG Galaxy via Bottles, but some people say they ran poorly, and I can imagine that it is not the best way of installing and playing a game on Linux. I have also seen some web-based apps (I use Backloggd regularly), but none of them actually seems to be able to connect with all my libraries such as Playnite (and no way I am importing all of these games manually). In addition, I have not found solution to my Lutris problems and it seems like no one really recommends using Cartridges (just adding more examples).

I am just a noobie linux gaming user, I installed this 3 days ago. Just looking for information and something that could be similar to that Playnite desktop environment. But I am open to other alternatives. So feel free to tell my how do you experience Linux gaming, maybe it suits my needs.

Also worth mentioning: the platforms where I have the most games, in descending order, would be: itch.io, Steam, GOG, Epic, Amazon and then I have like 20 games combining EA, Ubisoft, Humble and Battle.net

Thank you!

Hey there :)

I’m Krisz, a solo indie dev, and after 3 years of development, I'm finally releasing TerraForge 1.0 on November 20th.

TerraForge is a relaxing mining simulation game mixed with a bit of shop management. You dig for ores, master crafting items, research new blueprints, improve your shop, sell your items and slowly grow your own little mining town.

It might be a game you can enjoy or relax into after a long day. Hopefully :D If not, that's totally cool. I just tried my best to create a kinda fun relaxing game.

You can check it on Steam if you're interested:
