I was torn between Nobara and CachyOS, I ended up choosing Nobara (just because it looked more simple and it was my first Linux approach) and a week ago I installed it on my primary SSD. For context, my GPU is a 4070 Super.

Performance varies, some games the loss is minimal (Rocket League), some others the performance loss is major (The Finals, 40FPS loss and stutter when an enemy is close), while others get way better performance(up to 50% more, i have no idea how), like Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, until it saturates VRAM and it starts stuttering.

I don't know if this behavior is expected, and I don't know what to make of it, but I know there should be an update around the corner for DX12 games (something about Heap Descriptor in DirectX->Vulkan traduction?) and I'm marvelled how some games can run so much better even under proton.

I really hope many more can come to Linux, because I don't miss Windows one bit, Nobara is snappy, fast, doesn't gobble up ram, file transfer with external sources is chef's kiss.
One strange thing I don't understand is why everytime it asks to elaborate Vulkan's shader but in some games, if it reaches 100% the games crashes even before starting, while if i just skip it it's all good.

Do you have some tips regarding the VRAM problem or the performance loss on some games? :)

i researched far and Wide to get this specific server to work. apparently, i Need to recompile wine to have the registry name "HKCU". does anyone know how to do this? do wine forks like this already exist? or has anyone found a different workaround?

PS: FGunz works perfectly, but i want to run FXP gunz specifically

Hello, I am so sorry, I know this has been asked several times but I really cannot get it working even after spending 4 hours on it and now I am only frustrated. When I open Civ VI it gets stuck on the very first charging page, pc completely freezes and I have to force to turn it off completely and restart it. I tried running the Proton version and after asking me if I want to use direct 11 or 12, it gives me an error with both options saying graphic is not supported. Please explain to me like I'm 6, I know the basic of the basics of Ubuntu and nothing more. Thank you so much

I tried installing sims4 from lutris by installing the EAapp but it kept crashing. I switched to installing from steam and now everytime I try to install the EAapp from that it errors out. it's clearly conflicting with my lutris install because I tried it on another account and it worked perfectly. does anyone know what files might be conflicting or what to nuke from lutris' install files?

I've tried removing the EAapp from lutris and tried uninstalling lutris but obviously that doesn't remove the files that are conflicting

It runs natively on Linux. I personally use ubuntu and it was important for me to make sure that it runs properly on it.

I need a way to turn the touchscreen into trackpad on KDE Wayland (Bazzite). I've already tried touchegg with touche, but it doesn't seem to be working (in all fairness, it says it doesn't officially support Wayland). I'm wondering if anyone knows of a way to turn a touchscreen into a trackpad.

Hello,

I have installed the GoG version of Prince of Persia Sands of Time with Lutris on Debian 13. I play with an 8bitdo Ultimate 2 controller. It worked normally and I could make it ok to 65 percents of the game. But suddenly now the game thinks the left stick is always pushed forward after the first activation of the controller. I launch the game, nothing happens, I push a button on the controller, the game thinks the left stick is pushed and never released. If I go into the mapping screen of the game, the game will immediately assigns the left joystick forward to any button I click on because, hey, the left joystick is pushed forward after all.

It seems to happen within the game. If I go into wine control, everything seems to work fine. Same in Duckstation (my only other game).

This morning I installed the GoG version of Beyond Good and Evil because I want it to be my next game. I fiddled with the Appimage of AntiMicroX, because BGE doesn't support controllers. Maybe this is related, but I'm not sure - I just launched AntiMicroX and didn't do anything in it. I tried deleting everything related to AntiMicroX but no luck.

Any idea on how I can use my controller again to beat PoP ?

I'm brand new to all things Linux. My specs are i9 12900kf, 5070ti, 64 gb 3600 ddr4, 850 PSU. Not sure where to start but my PC keeps crashing with every new update to windows.so I figured if I can find a good alternative then I'd give it a shot. Any help is welcome, thank you.
