ProtonGE latest(Wayland, Ntsync) vs Proton 9 Legacy (Xwayland, Fsync): Benchmarks
Gaming on Linux Keeps Getting Better; especially in light of Windows 10 EOL
Trying to run Dark Souls Remastered on Fedora 42 and getting the error on the image
Everytime that i try i get this error. Already tried this comand:
PROTON_USE_WINED3D=1 MESA_LOADER_DRIVER_OVERRIDE=crocus %command%It changed nothing. But i don't know if i put the command on the right place, i am just starting at linux.
My specs are:
4 × Intel® Core™ i3-3110M CPU @ 2.40GHz
Intel® HD Graphics 4000 (Integrated)
4 GiB de RAM
Observations:
1- I put the command above first on the terminal without steam open, and them when i opened steam i tried to use it again;
2- When i tried to run Bioshock (the only game with graphics similar to DS1 that i tested) it doesnt even start now, but when i was using Windows 10 on the same notebook, i could run it;
3- Already tried to change the version of Proton;

Good lightweight 13" or 14" Laptop for light/indie gaming on Linux
What brand/model do you recommend? I want to but a modern small Laptop to install linux on it and do some light mostly indie gaming. I don't need it to be too much powerfull because I mostly play indie games. Maybe I'd like to try something like Elden Ring or Baldur's Gate 3 with medium graphics. But I definitely don't play anything highly demanding like shooters or any first person games. (So it should have an AMD chip better than the steam deck one, but not necessarily that much better?)
Also, I don't want it to have RGB keyboard, just a normal one (a good one, but nothing mechanical gaming stuff, because I will use always a gamepad for gaming), and a good trackpad because I will use it too for some web browsing and school stuff.
The screen doesn't have to be anything great, because I will do most of the gaming in a big TV using an HDMI cable. Thats another important thing: I need it to have great driver support for HDMI ports and Bluetooh. I tried linux on and old pc that I have, but I never manage to make the hdmi or bluetooth to work.
And the price, well not too expensive, but neither necessarily too cheap. Mid range budget I'd say. And I don't live in the US, preferably a brand with big worldwide presence or at least that ships worldwide.
So that's it (Im sorry for the long post). I wanted to ask it here because some of you have a lot of knowledge about the current state of the market. Im a bit lost right now, but I read that Asus was involved in some scandals due to the poor quality of some of their laptops and the guarantee it offered.

Laptop fan speed control options on Bazzite - LACT not detecting GPU fan
I'm using Bazzite on a Gigabyte G5, i5-10500h RTX3060 and have tried using LACT to control my fan speeds but it can't detect any fans.
Is there something I can do to try and have them detected or is there an alternative service I could make use of?
This is mainly frustrating because Bazzite actually enables me to finally fully switch over to Linux, but if I can't keep my fans from maxing out on every game it's unfortunately a deal breaker.

No Music in Risk of Rain 2
Just like the title says. All other audio works fine (sfx, menu noised, etc.) but there is zero music. I checked my settings, tried some different proton versions, nothing so far. Any help would be appreciated, the music is so good in this game! I'm running Bazzite.

I'm in dire need of a new OS
Windows 10 dies in less than 48 hours, I have a weak pc (DDR3 weak) and can't afford any upgrade, any Linux operating systems that have good protection and gaming capabilities that aren't too intensive? I'd also love a user friendly option that is easier to configure and work with.

The Crew Motorfest Error on Bazzite
I've been trying to run the game on Bazzite on Rog Ally X. protonDb website lists this game as playable but I get this error and I don't know how to resolve it. I tried trying different versions of official and community build proton versions. Battleye is also installed through Steam and Ubisoft connect also seems to be launching properly and signing in properly as I see it flash and I see game start, and then this error pops up. Game audio plays by the way (the same audio when game is first installed and started)

Framerate Issues With Mint
Newbie to Linux here, I installed Mint the other day but I'm running into issues with my games either running at crawling framerates or outright freezing my entire machine. I'm running an Nvidia graphics card, and I do hear that this sort of thing is a common problem with Nvidia-do any of you know any means of getting my games to work?
If it's any help, these are my system specs:

Built my own GUI for pacman/AUR/Flatpak – shows the real terminal output
DualSense Adaptive Triggers works but not Haptic Feedback or any sort of Rumble.
I'm running Arch Linux 6.17.1 on KDE Plasma 6, i checked every thread under the sun but without success.
Basically the title, the DualSense controller is updated and connected via USB. In DualSense native supported games (TLOU Part 1 / 2 for example) Steam Input is turned off but i still get a "DualSense vibrations are currently unavailable because the controllers audio is disabled" error.
I tried multiple Proton version (every GE-Proton to 10-10 to 10.17, ClearlyClair versions, other GE Haptics version and the latest proton-cachyos) with no success. I also tried multiple udev rules (even installed game-devices-udev from AUR), audio device profiles switch and changing the name of the DualSense to "DualSense Wireless Controller" or "Wireles Controller" in both Steam and Pipewire both via KDE Plasma settings and wireplumber conf files.
While connected via Bluetooth the DualSense does not show up as an audio source (this is to be expected, i believe) but at least i get basic rumble, TLOU for example allows me to use basic vibrations but not haptics. Via cable i don't get either. What is strange is that Adaptive Triggers works in both Bluetooth (i didn't believe it was possible, TLOU even warns me about it) and wired.
Opening the audio tab in winecfg shows the DualSense as a quadraphonic device, so i believe everything is setup correctly.
The controller speaker's works perfectly, i can use it as audio output source and testing them in the audio tab of KDE Plasma i get vibration on the back ones in the quadraphonic profile. Also i get normal vibration while using Steam Input or while testing the DualSense on https://hardwaretester.com/gamepad .
In a last desperate attempt i even bought a new cable, connecting the DualSense with a USB-C to USB-C 3.2 20Gbps cable, with no success.
I basically ran out of options, i hope someone might find the time to help me.

What is the fundamental limitation on kernel level anti-cheat?
The biggest hurdle to gaming on Linux today is kernel level anti cheat that many games require now. Most other compatibility issues are taken care of by Wine/Proton.
So my question is: what would it take to overcome that hurdle? Would it require the companies that make these anti-cheat to specifically integrate Linux kernel compatibility into their code base? Would secure boot make it further complicated because currently anyone can locally sign their OS in Linux vs. a trusted 3rd party?
What is the most realistic path towards a situation where gaming on linux is not held back like it is today?
