A week ago, my game run perfectly fine. Then I updated my system. While I can start the game as normal and the main menu works as normal as soon as I load into my current campaign or start a skirmish battle vs. AI, the game freezes after a few seconds and does not recover.

Software Versions

• Total War: Warhammer III: v6.2.2 Build 36734.3708877 (windows build)
• Proton: Experimental (10.0 I think)
• OS: Arch Linux x86_64
• Kernel: 6.12.42-1-lts
• Desktop Environment: GNOME 48.4 (wayland)
• GPU Driver: nvidia-dkms 580.76.05-4
• Package manager: Pacman v7.0.0 and yay v12.5.0

Hardware

• CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D (16) @ 5.050GHz
• GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 16GB
• RAM: 64GB

What I have already tried

• Restart my machine
• Repaired the game files via steam
• Again updated all drivers and software on my machine
• Downgrading Proton to version 9
• Run the game in window mode
• Disabled my tiling window extension (Forge)
• Run the game with launch options PROTON_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 %command%
• Switching to Proton-GE: This actually changed something. Now the game freezes for a few seconds, then the screen turns black (sounds still ok), and the game re-renders... for a few seconds then it freezes again. This was going on in a loop for minutes until I closed the game.

Other Information

Other games seem to run as normal. I guess downgrading my GPU driver could solve the problem, but I would rather not do that if possible.

I’ve never used Linux for gaming so I wonder if there is any noticeable performance difference between easier distros like Fedora, Ubuntu or SuSE like distros vs something like Arch, Gentoo or Void Linux. I’m talking about out of the box distro with KDE option.

I’m asking as I’ve seen JayTwoCents video where all games he tested was performing worse on Bazzite (Fedora) than W11. I’ve tested Bazzite on the same 7900xtx and also see few games performing worse than my W10.

Resident evil 4 in particular was running slower. Is it normal? Or there is something wrong with Bazzite, KDE, 7900xtx, RE4 or something else? Many people claim that amd gpu perform better on linux than on windows. I play at 4K if that matters.

Hello everyone,

A question from a fellow linux gamer , those of you who use Nvidia cards , which driver version are you running ?

I'm running latest non beta 575.64.05 on 4060 on bazzite and it's been a huge pain. From some games crashing to severe fps drops / stutters.

yes , I've troubleshooted the case thoroughly, it's nvidia. mostly vram related.

I own the game through GOG and installed with Lutris on CachyOS.

Tried a variety of wine package and used 'proton-cachyos' with "STEAM_DECK=1" environment variable, but I am at my wits end. I also tried the SoC EE cutscenes mod on NexusMods, yet the cutscene aren't loading.

Nothing seems to work, and I never played S.T.A.L.K.E.R. before, would like to have a seamless experience.

Cutscene in question

Does anyone have some suggestions or an outright fix? Thanks in advance.

1. Why do some of you use GE-Proton so much? Is there a benefit I'm missing out on with stock Proton?
2. I'm gonna use Hyprland with this new installation, is there anything I should consider for gaming?
3. Is PipeWire still the best sound server?
4. Should I consider using an alternative kernel or is the performance boost not that significant?

Thanks for any help.

Hi there.

I want to move Minecraft's ".minecraft" folder to a different location on my other SSD. I want minecraft to use the .minecraft folder on the other SSD and not recreate the folder in it's original position when the minecraft launcher is loaded.

I am doing this because I am treating my 2nd SSD as a gaming drive for save files, mods etc.

I'm new to linux in general, so I'm a bit stuck on how to do this.

I'm using Bazzite KDE (if that helps at all).

it really just doesn't work on my system no matter what. i've tried on arch, fedora, and now ubuntu, and it didn't work on any of those. it always complains about pyzstd:

not to remove zstd library, and the run-time zstd library's version
can't be lower than that at compile-time; On Windows, the directory
that has libzstd.dll should be added by os.add_dll_directory() function.
2, Please install pyzstd module through pip, to ensure that compiled
.so/.pyd file matches the architecture/OS/Python.

and i've reinstalled pyzstd in every way imaginable and it did not work. i don't know what to do anymore.

Used to run pop OS on my system back in 2019 and ran games on my windows 10 virtual machine, it was a royal pain to get a script to hook on my GPU but once I got it working it was very cool (switched back to Windows after I couldn't figure out how to fix some audio glitches along with other issues). I'm thinking of making the switch back to Linux, maybe to CatchyOS or KDE but I need Windows to run Adobe creative suite and a few other Windows exclusive stuff. I have a ryzen 9 5900x and an RTX 3090, is it still an option today? Is it better? Is it worse?

The more I have learned computing and satisfied my tech geek, the more I have begun to despise Windows especially once they started forcing telemetry. I been dual-booting with Windows for at least 12 years now and nowadays I just play everything I can on Linux. Been playing a lot of The Finals as it is a competitive team and skill-based shooter that is a blast and devs are committed to keeping Proton support.

Linux is the future the more Windows keeps releasing bloated spying garbage masquerading as an OS. Been using Cachyos after nearly a decade on Fedora and am loving it. I used Arch previously before Fedora for a good 6-7 years. We are living in good times for Linux gaming because I can remember when everything was a struggle to get working.
