Hey everyone, so I'm aware that the game has several issues ofc but I recently faced a problem where the game would only crash on a very specific setup, which is an RTX 50 series GPU on Linux with the latest 580 version drivers, so I had to downgrade to 575 to make it work, I also checked protondb and turns out that its better to recompile shaders in-game every single time you launch the game to not get any stutters, so I tried to do just that but the shader compilation takes nearly an hour which is too long. For reference, my specs are as below:

CPU: i5 11400f GPU: 5070ti RAM: 24GB Distros: Fedora 42

Now Ik that the CPU is obv a heavy bottleneck factor but I dont think the CPU itself is so bad to the point where shader compilation would take almost an hour, no? Specially since for some of my friends and others, it seems to take only about a minute. Anyone have any idea what might be happening and if theres any fix? Thanks.

I’ve been waiting and checking on progress of going full time Linux for decades. I’ve dabbled every year or two and removed for various missing features/functions. Gaming has always been my blocker and showstopper. Over the last couple months I have been soooo elated to come home to Linux and unhealthily distro hop (I’ll call it sampling..) what every one has been up to. After many dozens of dual boot reinstalls, I’ve come to conclude for me it is Arch, Fedora, and their forks work best for me. I love the latest releases but only with snapshots setup- already saved me a couple times!

Real talk, gaming.. tons of Steam games in my library and I want to support them with all the added Proton / Wine magic they’ve been doing for our Linux movement.

Current hardware- 7800X3D, 64 GB 6000, 4090 RTX, 4K OLED Gsync gaming monitor, multiple nVME drives for OSes and/or extra space. I’ll unfortunately need to stick to dual booting due to some proprietary work apps and Secure Boot / TPM 2.0 needs. I’ll probably only install those pesky kernel anti-cheat games on windows with my work Win11 boot option for now. Everything works as is right now, but I’m looking to min-max my Linux setup. Key concern is nVidia not being friendly with drivers and possibly performance in Linux. I’ve debated going to AMD GPUs to go even more all-in here.

4K works pretty well right now, joining the list of folks waiting on DX12 improvements but forcing DX11/Vulkan where possible. I’m debating just staying put with my 4090 till possibly the next AMD GPU series releases with more power to push 4K gaming at high settings or not. So far, seems AMD GPUs by the data can’t compete at high 4K FPS and settings with nVidia higher end GPUs, yet. I want to support AMD for their Linux friendly releases once we’re there.

My question after all that, what would you do if you were spoiled like me to maximize my Linux main boot and gaming options? (First-world problems, I know..) Budget not an issue but avoiding waste.

Hi eveyrone,

I'm not really a Windows 11 lover and I was thinking to switch from W11 to linux since I mainly play single player games on it.

My questions are:

- Does legends or runeterra run on linux? And hearthstone? I think all other games I play will run

- How can I switch between my iGPU (ryzen 7840HS) and dGPU (nvidia 4050) automatically based on which app I'm using?

- For now I would like to keep w11. Can Linux use the games from the game partition without having to install them twice? What about savedata?

How does the game run? Have you experienced any problems and how is the performance?

I am really looking into switching to linux but gaming is my one hiccup.

Also how is it with mods? Any problems with that?

• Intel i5 10300H
• NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650
• 16GB RAM (if matters)

It’s a hybrid graphics system - Intel UHD + NVIDIA. Everything works fine except for games. They just don’t use the NVIDIA GPU at all and instead run on the Intel UHD Graphics. I’ve tried almost everything, but no luck so far.

If anyone has managed to get their GPU working properly on this (or a similar) laptop, how did you do it?

I'm running CachyOS hyprland, I've installed battle.net via steam then installed wow.

Recently I've been running into issues where everything will completely freeze and my PC will crash to a black screen with a blinking underscore.

I then have to hold my PC button to shut the PC down and boot it back up again to get anything to work.

I think this may be a memory leak? But have nothing to confirm that.

Can anyone advise how I can investigate, or if others are facing the same/similar issue?

Hi, I would like to use a Dual GPU setup but there is something I don t understand : how to setup properly.

I am new to this, even if it looks like the old 3dfx days

I am on Bazzite-nvidia flavor.

I have a dual screen setup but I only use one screen (primary) when playing with or without LSFGVK. secondary screen is for reading.

My main GPU is RTX 2070s. currently pluged into both monitors via Display port.

I am planning to buy an RTX 3050 6 Go for LSFG-VK frame generation. bonus question will it run at 3x without artefacts?

here is my trouble understanding how it works.

As I understand :

-When using the system WITHOUT lsfgvk enable (like normal 2d games or normal system usage) I must plug my main screen to the 2070s and secondary screen to the RTX 3050.

-When using the system with framegen turned ON the RTX 3050, I must plug my main screen to the 3050 and 2070s to the secondary screen?

There is something I am missing/ not understanding.

Higly unusable ? or using more displayport / hdmi cables to connect both cards on both displays?! ?

Please explain like I am five, I am new to using linux as my main machine, liking it !

Take for example games like Fortnite / Apex Legends where the server is responsible for handling up to 100 players. Both of these games worked on linux at one point and technically the base games still do under proton. However, they are intentionally blocked on linux due being unable to enforce client-side kernel level anti-cheat protections.

In these games, all players update the game server with their current coordinates on the map. The server in-turn updates all clients with the coordinates of all other players on the map. The client's game then performs the logic on the client-side to determine which players should be visible and should be rendered onto the screen. Wall-hacks exploit the data from the server to also render players who would normally not be visible (such as those behind walls).

What is the reasoning behind why a server cannot withhold sending enemy player coordinates to the client until that enemy player is supposed to become visible? What are the implication of using this as a strategy to prevent wall-hacks?

Hi guys! I don't know what happened, but I can't set my gpu power limit lower than 305W. Previously it was 250w. i have 0xffffffff in grub but it doesn't help

I have an old, low-spec laptop, I installed Endeavor OS because it's lightweight, but I want to know if there's a specific distro for gaming that works well on my laptop and I only plan to play Minecraft, Hollow Knight, or NFS MW. Which distro do you recommend to get the most out of it?

I'm currently using Bazzite, and I really like it. But I think I'm ready to try something a little more challenging, and I want to migrate to CachyOS. Importing my whole home folder seems impractical and unnecessary, everything I want to preserve can be easily backed up to a separate smaller disk... except my Steam games. So, I have an idea, and I want to put it out there before I just go and do it in case I'm missing something or neglected something important.

I'm thinking I should shrink down my current partition, I have plenty of free space left over to do it atm, and then create a new, temporary partition just to put my games on. (I'm not sure if making it a Steam library through the Storage settings menu is the right idea here or not.) Then, once I've installed CachyOS, I just drop the games into my fresh Steam install, nuke the temporary partition, and then expand CachyOS's to encompass all the free space.

This seems like a good, clean solution to me - but I'll freely admit I lack the knowledge and foresight to know if this is a good idea. I just don't want to redownload all my games again. What do you guys think?

In games that use Vulkan they seem to refuse to use all of my GPU, I can max out settings, remove the frame caps and get around 60% utilization max with around 90w being the max power draw.

I tried another, albeit much less graphically intense game that runs in OpenGL and it was able to hit the max frame cap allowed by the game of 300fps and sit there with utilization increasing when needed. I am using feral gamemode, have tried changing the power profiles using ctrlcore and lact, set my KDE power state to performance and so far nothing has changed unless I play a game with OpenGL instead.

I have a 5800X CPU and a 7800XT GPU.

Hello, I used Mint for about a month and have lots of previous coding experience so I said you know what let’s save some time and I skipped straight into Arch. Currently I’m running KDE plasma 6, newest version, and I’ve seen a very strong trend of —-> want to play game —-> watch guide —-> download runner (wine and proton more of a one time thing nonetheless) ——> eventually get to the point of it not working because the guide didn’t tell me I needed this 32bit system installed or this special proton release. In general I’ve installed all “base packages” (I hope and think) wine, proton, steams all set up, (currently stuck and fixing Ubisoft connect on lutris this is one example on not being told about certain needed things) and I’m hoping someone can tell me based from experience what drivers I will need to play popular games, what packages do I need? I’m pretty familiar with everything and I have multilib enabled so my repository isn’t limited I’ve installed everything, seems to be a constant issue for me around the corner and till I get enough money for another storage device I don’t want to dual boot on this one device, rather I want to dual boot separately on two devices one for each of them. (Because I don’t want to experiment any issues with time shift possibly wiping windows on my drive and other things). Sorry for the long paragraph maybe I’m not reading up on everything correctly, but steam works fine w/proton (I used proton-QT to update anything) but I’m struggling with Lutris.

Since the recent hotfix in September I cant get the script extender to work properly anymore. The dll and setting json files are in the bin directory and I have the launch command in steam. Anyone else have this issue or know of a fix?
