Hi everyone, can someone help me activate LSFG? I had managed to use LSFG before, but I had to switch Linux distributions and, after that, I couldn’t activate it again, even when following the same process.

The only way I had managed to install it before was through the GitHub page, building it from source. I followed the step-by-step instructions there, and it just worked. However, after switching distributions, trying to follow the same steps no longer works.

This time, when I got errors again, I had the impression it was working, but when I activated it, no frames were generated — instead, I just got absurd input lag, whether at 2x or 20x frame generation with the immediate preset. When I set it to the vsync preset, the game would lock at 30 FPS. I really don’t know what could have caused this, I spent more than 4 hours trying to fix it and couldn’t.

All of this was tested on the same game, practically on a standard Linux setup without many additional modifications. My graphics card is an AMD RX550. I hope someone can help me, because this time I can’t get it to work, even after trying to repeat the same steps that had worked before.

What the hell are these

Hello there everyone, I wanted to request assistance since it's been a while since i have been playing Minecraft. Entities for some reason don't load, when i mine items, or try to adding mobs in creative, or shooting an error still doesn't show.

Laptop Inspiron-5575

And i have never encountered any issues regarding Minecraft.

For some reason when I'm playing the server lags a lot in singleplayer says like the server is overloaded in the debugging notes.

And i checked the java versions i had installed:

Selection Path Priority Status

0 /usr/lib/jvm/jdk-25/bin/java 3000 auto mode

1 /usr/lib/jvm/jdk-25/bin/java 3000 manual mode

the Linux native build is officially supported only on Steam Deck but it still works on Linux desktop. I'm seeing around a 14% improvement to average FPS in more CPU intensive areas of the game like Rivington and close to identical performance in more GPU bound scenarios like the very beginning of the game on the nautiloid. I presume the deck is likely to be CPU bound more often than my desktop so it's possibly a bigger uplift on there, but I don't have one to test it. All tests were done using Vulkan with ultra settings at 1440p on a 9070xt & 5950x machine.

So I finally switched to Linux and ditched Windows! And decided to settle with CachyOS as I'm willing to tweak the system if needed and I'm primarily using my laptop for gaming. Everything is going great, but I have a question: the laptop is only using and apparently recognizing the dedicated GPU (NVIDIA RTX 4060) and not the integrated GPU (don't know what it is, CPU is a Ryzen 7 7435HS). I have followed a few guides, verified switcheroo is installed and enabled, but only the NVIDIA card is being used. It would be more of a problem the other way, but I'd prefer if for low usage tasks my laptop would use the iGPU.

And while I'm here, when installing Steam it came with two versions: native and another one, and a shortcut has been added to the desktop but I don't know which version it is. I tried to download a game (Subnautica) and Steam installed files alongside it (Steam Linux Runtime 1.0, 2.0 and 3.0). I managed to launch the game, but are the Linux Runtime files related to Proton/Wine? Should I rather launch the game through Proton (don't know how to do that yet) or just settle with this?

Thank you all for your time, I know the switch to Linux will take a lot of time and effort, especially with an Arch distro, but I want to do this.

As the question says, I'm new to Linux (ubuntu), used windows for most of my life got tired with Microsoft turning everything to crap and switched to Linux. Mostly satisfied with everything other than gaming. I saw a few posts saying how heroic or lutris are the best launchers to play windows games on linux but I can't figure out how to make them work no matter what I do. Can somebody help me fix this up?

Looking to make the switch to Linux pretty soon and leaning heavily towards CachyOS. Have decent-ish knowledge of Linux via running my NAS and a little Optiplex server for years. System is a 9800X3D with a 9070XT.

Specific Questions: * I have a HDR OLED Ultrawide. I know that HDR is still pretty hit or miss on Linux, but looks like some flavours of Proton can now get it working via env variables. Are there any other gotchas I should know about? How is the SDR -> HDR mapping in Linux for desktop? I know it's bad in Windows and recommended to leave it off until playing a HDR game. * How's FSR4/RDNA4 support on Linux now? I know it was experimental for quite a while. And by extension - how's Optiscaler with Linux? I know they include some .sh files now to make installation easier. * I use Firefly Luciferin to capture my screen. Anything I should know there (especially regarding HDR)? * How's VR on Linux these days? I understand ALVR allows wireless streaming. I don't play VR games that frequently, and can keep a Windows install if that's gonna be the best answer (at least until Deckard/Valve revitalizes Linux VR). * My other main hobbies/daily uses are: 3D printing/modelling/CAD, FPV drones, video editing. Anything that I should be aware of there which might be an issue? Seems like most of the apps I use are on Flathub/have native Linux support. * Was hoping to use Gnome as something different to the usual Windows UX, but understand it's lagging a bit in Wayland/HDR support. Am I better off just sticking with KDE rather than trying to go with Gnome?

Anyone know if you can change a wine folders' default settings?

I'm referring to wine runner folders that Steam and Lutris picks up from ~/.steam/steam/compatibilitytools.d?

Ideally I'd like to have each of my runners to share default settings when it comes to Wine Config.

It annoys me that runners from Glorious-GE have the Desktop Integration/Folders section set up so that symlinks get created in my home directory.

I'm referring to the Folders section here:

I'd love to unset that globally so I don't have to configure this for every "game" that uses a wine runner in lutris.

Thank you!
