Maybe this is a dumb question

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 7 May 2024 - 3:37am

Would this be the correct file path for cuberpunk 2077 on gog/lutris?:

Home/games/gog/cyberpunk-2077/drive-c/users/name/savedgames/cd project red/cyberpunk2077

When I click all the way through the path I end up in a directory with around 20 separate auto saves and manual saves. I assume this is correct. Im upgrading my ssd to a new drive and want to move my game save to the new drive after a fresh install of OS and lutris and cyberpunk.

Installing Bazzite on an Alienware m17 R5 (AMD), SteamVR question

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 7 May 2024 - 3:09am

Following this guide to install Bazzite, my only other Linux gaming experience is with the Deck. Installation file for Fedora Media Writer is named bazzite-stable.iso straight from their homepage.

Pre-Installation

I'd almost made a huge mistake and installed it over my laptop's SSD with Windows installed (which as much as I'd like to move off, will most likely need to keep for a few niche uses). Luckily I caught that the only visible drive in the installation screen was 1TB and the drive I'd installed in the 2nd SSD bay was this model of 2TB. I tried swapping SSD bay ports, going into the laptop's BIOS upon reading suggestions to switch hard drive modes to AHCI (only to find that the only available option in that menu), cloning the laptop's 1TB M.2 SSD to the 2TB drive, and trying to switch installation media from a portable SSD to a 256GB USB 3.0 thumbdrive but failing to get FMW to cooperate with said thumbdrive -- nothing could get the installer to detect the SSD. I'd purchased this SSD some time ago with the laptop, intending to use it at first as a second storage drive and then as a second boot option once I learned about the possibility of Bazzite, but had just recently purchased a bunch more storage and found that despite the lesser brand and price, this model of SSD is detected just fine. I'd purchased it just to have as external storage with an enclosure, so hopefully I'm making a good call by swapping around the initial purpose I'd gotten these for.

SSD Weirdness

"Install bazzite-40" is the only main install option from my installation media (SanDisk Extreme Portable 2TB SSD connected w/USB-C), it doesn't pass the "check" option upon initial boot but I'm not sure what else to try at this point since the only suitable USB stick I have at the moment isn't cooperating and the install option starts as intended, although I have not tried running the installation yet. At first I had the WD_Black SSD I had initially purchased for the laptop as the installation media itself, not realizing I needed a separate device like when making a fresh Windows install. At one point I'd formatted the WD_Black SSD to NTFS, but this didn't get it noticed by the Fedora installer either. It dawned on me that there's probably one of several partitions on the laptop's Windows 11 drive making it detectable, but I have no idea how that could be the case for the KingSpec SSD being detected right out of the box while the WD_Black is undetected no matter what. I'm probably missing some critical info about SSD specs that I couldn't glean from the respective product pages.

Bazzite versions

Whatever way I'd set up that SSD as installation media before realizing my mistake included many more install options like bazzite-gnome and bazzite-deck. The Bazzite homepage suggests bazzite-deck for an experience closest to Steam Deck that can apply to Home Theatre PCs, and I would like to at least have the booting into Game Mode part of that, but I recall reading elsewhere that this is a bad thing if not installing the distro on actual Steam Deck hardware. The install guide refers to entering Steam account info to make Game Mode possible upon initial boot so hopefully if it's not enabled by default it's a simple enough setting to change if it's something included in this bazzite-40 install (I've searched and founding getting the opposite, i.e. automatic boot to Desktop Mode on actual Steam Deck hardware is a lot more trouble). Maybe some Linux whiz can share how to set it up for an even better HTPC experience than a SteamOS lookalike -- not that I have any complaints about the appearance of Valve current's offering, although operability has been a different story sometimes.

SteamVR question

Would also like to know if anyone has tried SteamVR with Bazzite or a similar distro and has anything to share about that experience. The reason I ask:

I have a rather stupid but funny and interesting idea to use my Valve Index I got a few years ago with the laptop on my back instead of tripping over the the stupid cable hooked up to my desktop PC or hanging it on some ceiling-suspended abomination (would buy a mesh backpack like this and DP cable adapter so it's easier to make holes for it to breathe and see the mess of cables inside). I need a portable battery with AC outlets to power the headset anyways, so not sure if the default power setting in Bazzite will affect performance in VR. I have a portable battery that could decently accomodate both the headset power cable and laptop plugged in, but the huge power brick adding to the weight of the backpack will make it even more of workout to play than just the laptop and portable battery.

Even if this ridiculous idea doesn't work I'll at least have a beefy gaming laptop with a Linux distro that hopefully suits it well.

Few more laptop specs:

  • RX 6850M XT 12GB GDDR6
  • Ryzen 9 6900HX
  • 32GB RAM

Input latency when playing games on wayland

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 7 May 2024 - 2:47am

I don't know if it's just me because I'm using an RTX 2060, but I've asked some other people who use NVIDIA, and they say "I've never experienced any input lag" I don't want to say that I might be more sensitive to it because I have a few thousand hours in CSGO and another few thousand hours in fortnite, because the input lag I'm experiencing should be 100% noticeable by everyone. It might also not be input lag I have no idea what it is.

I now aiming in some games feels weird. This mainly includes games that require some form of aiming, games like Dota 2 or something simliar doesn't feel as bad. I guess it could be because I'm not using a Variable Refresh Rate screen with Gsync or Freesync.

I will say I basically see this problem when playing on wayland and on X11, although X11 gives me the option to turn off the compositor which does practically make the issue not noticeable it is noticeable, but it's very small. I don't know how to measure this or if it's even input lag. The frametime seems perfect on most games. I don't know what it could be. Anyone got any suggestions? I would really like to use wayland.

Currently on windows and I’m playing a lot of gray zone warfare. It’s not compatible on Linux but I wouldn’t mind switching it out with another tactical shooter that’s compatible with Linux once I do make the switch (hopefully soon).

(using minecraft as that is the way I found out this info, but it is for every game and maybe even the whole OS)

I am using Mint Linux with a ryzen 5800x and a 3070, but i am getting double or even single digit frames in ever game. My GPU does not appear and instead it is saying Llvmpipe and Mesa (not really sure what that is). How would I make it run off of my normal GPU. In the driver settings it says it recognizes my gpu and has the drivers for it. This is a issue on both the NVIDIA drivers and nouveau

Black screen launching Baldur's gate 3 on Steam

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 6 May 2024 - 11:24pm

Hello everyone,

I've been struggling with that issue for a while now and tested many things but can't get it to work unfortunately :/

I'm running a Arch Install on a Alienware M16 R12. I've deactivated the Intel card and now I should be fully running on the Nvidia card.

[root@kin-alien ~]# glxinfo | grep NVIDIA server glx vendor string: NVIDIA Corporation client glx vendor string: NVIDIA Corporation OpenGL vendor string: NVIDIA Corporation OpenGL renderer string: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Laptop GPU/PCIe/SSE2 OpenGL core profile version string: 4.6.0 NVIDIA 550.78 OpenGL core profile shading language version string: 4.60 NVIDIA OpenGL version string: 4.6.0 NVIDIA 550.78 OpenGL shading language version string: 4.60 NVIDIA OpenGL ES profile version string: OpenGL ES 3.2 NVIDIA 550.78

Cyberpunk 2077 runs well but when I launch Baldur's Gate 3, whether on DX11 or Vulkan, I get a black screen, the mouse cursor changes to the gauntlet and that's it. I changed Proton version and it's not helping.

Here are the logs, issue keeps looping.

Constant redownloading of steam library when dual booting.

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 6 May 2024 - 8:52pm

I'm running a dualboot setup where my main OS is Universal Blue Aurora (basically Fedora 40 Kinoite) where I'm gaming using an arch-based distrobox container referencing a steam library hosted on a separate 4 TB SSD.

I'm also distrohopping through a bunch of secondary distros trying to find one where my Valve Index and SteamVR will actually work. The current one I have installed is Bazzite. Regardless of which other distro I've got in play though, as soon as I connect my steam library to it it will immediately redownload something for every game in the library, with some of the components being more than a gigabyte in size. If I then reboot into my main distro it does it all over again.

Basically every reboot between distros I'm downloading something like 20-30 gigs of patches. Is there any way I can moderate this behavior?
