Getting games to run wine

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 30. Mai 2024 - 12:01

Hi everyone I know WoW has been supported by wine for years. Turtle WoW was great until they patched it. Now you get naked people everywhere can can't talk or logout. I feel there is a problem with case sensitive with there new patch, but other Linux people are running it fine. I am not sure what to do next. Any ideas would be appreciated.

Invert mouse axis horizontally on Wayland

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 30. Mai 2024 - 11:54

Looking for any methods to make it so when I move my physical mouse to the left, the cursor would move to the right.

Wayland. Not X11. I'm not planning on using X11, and xinput is not even installed by default.

So far, I've stumbled upon libinput and libevdev-tweak-device, but I don't believe either of them is capable of reversing a one axis input.

libinput says my mouse doesn't support calibration, according to the list-devices, so I doubt I can change the calibration matrix.

libevdev-tweak-device I've tried this command:
libevdev-tweak-device --abs ABS-X --min 0 --max 0 /dev/input/event15
libevdev-tweak-device --abs ABS-RX --min 0 --max 0 /dev/input/event15
but they did literally nothing.
I've read somewhere that you are supposed to turn libevdev on, before you can meddle with it.
Are we out of Wayland ways to do that?

Help with old nVidia GPU (K1000M) on Xubuntu

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 30. Mai 2024 - 11:10

Hi all,

I just recently bought an old HP EliteBook 8570w with an nVidia K1000M GPU (1GB VRAM) and 16 GB RAM. Using Xubuntu on it works really well, but I am having very low 3D graphics performance..
I installed the 470 driver according to this page: Which driver for a Quadro K1000M notebook - Graphics / Linux / Linux - NVIDIA Developer Forums

The system recognizes the GPU properly, but as said, performance is incredibly low. I get substantially higher fps on my office notebook (a 3 year old DELL with i5 CPU and no dedicated GPU). Even old games like TeamFortress 2 only run more or less playable on minimum Graphics Settings... This cannot be, right?

Any ideas or hints what I could do? Should I switch to another distro? I was reading somewhere that the xfce-Mint or something like PopOS should have better driver handling than Xubuntu, but I have noooo experience in that field...

Any hints would be greatly appreciated!

Issues playing with dualsense via cable

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 30. Mai 2024 - 11:07

Hi all,

More of a query, when I go to plug in my dualsense controller via usb c to my pc, my controller vibrates and doesn't do anything else I could be doing something silly I'm sure so thought best to consult yourselves if theres and easy fix for the issue.

I am using Linux mint cinnamon, the ps5 controller is the regular one not the pro/elite one. I would mention games but as I cannot even get it to work with them doesn't seem to relevant but regardless I'll be playing alan wake 1 and 2 through steam downloaded through the heroic launcher.

If it turns out it won't work wired then that's alright I'll just use my xbox controller instead no harm

Many thanks

Elden Ring EAC Launch Error 261

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 30. Mai 2024 - 10:58

Hey all, I'm a bit lost. Maybe some of you can help out with this mess. A few weeks ago I started Elden Ring again after a longer break and suddenly EAC has problems, showing "Launch Error: 261" on every start. Offline Mode (swapping "*.exe") is running fine.

Elden Ring is installed on a secondary drive (btrfs) with steam library /steam_2tb/steamlib

In my $PREFIX/../EasyAntiCheat/anticheatlauncher.log the following is reported:

... [10:34:51:002] [Windows] [EAC Launcher] [Info] Current progress: 100 (8604900/8604900). [10:34:51:003] [Windows] [EAC Launcher] [Info] Current progress: 100 (1/1). [10:34:52:357] [Windows] [EAC Launcher] [Info] Launcher finished with: 208, 'Launch Error: 261'.

Further down the sub-dirs loader.log reports:

... [2024.05.30-10.34.51] Download Progress: 100 [2024.05.30-10.34.51] Download Progress: 100 [2024.05.30-10.34.51] [Connection] Connect result: No error (0) Response Code: 200 Destination IP: 13.33.187.113 [2024.05.30-10.34.51] Download Progress: 100 [2024.05.30-10.34.51] [EAC Callback] Code: 502. Message: 'Launch Error: 261'.

I already tried:

  • fully updating my system (Arch btw) a few times, no ignored packages
  • Checking file integrity
  • Different versions of Proton (from 6.X to 9.2 GE)
  • Running via Steam Native and Steam Runtime
  • Reinstalling the Game (with former prefix removed)
  • Reinstalling Proton EAC Runtime
  • Deleting the prefix
  • Deleting EAC dir in the prefix
  • Manually installing EAC within the prefix
  • New prefix without steam cloud sync

Sadly, according to this sub and ProtonDB this game should run without problems OOTB (as this was the case a few weeks/months(?) ago). Other games run just fine.

I dont think this is a glibc problem as others on Arch don't experience this and I don't intend on installing such a fundamental package from AUR repo.

AMD Graphics Driver level setting i.e. Adrenaline Software

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 30. Mai 2024 - 10:49

Hey Guys, Looking at making the move to Ubuntu completely but I have a few things holding me back for example the support for graphic driver level customization like Adrenaline Software etc.

I want to be able to use AFMF, FSR etc and adjust GPU settings on the fly.

Are there options available for such things as Windows still has the most support

Also multiplayer games like Xdefiant, how are they on Linux?

System freeze when gaming

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 30. Mai 2024 - 09:44

Hello,

I reinstalled my laptop a few days ago and I'm trying to play different games:

  • Ghost of tshushima
  • Metro exodus
  • Ori and the blind forest
  • Crusader king 3

However, I'm having a major problem where the system freezes randomly, sometimes after a few seconds, sometimes after an hour or more.

My first thought was to look at the log, but nothing conclusive appears: https://pastebin.com/BFU3RVih , the freeze occurs a little before 19h57m18s, before the SysRQ request.

I thought it might be a temperature problem, but after several tests, they occur even when the system seems to be cold: CPU: 55°C GPU: 49°C.

What's more, even when the system is relatively warm, the freeze doesn't occur at the heat spike that can be recorded earlier in the logs.

As far as I'm concerned, but I could be wrong, a problem due to temperature doesn't allow sysrq commands since the system locks up completely.

What I tried:
I increased the vm.max_map_count to 2147483642, without solving the problem.
I’ve added an 8GB swap file.
I’ve installed thermald.
Change the proton version (although this happens in native games like Metro Exodus).

Can't launch games through steam on Bazzite

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 30. Mai 2024 - 07:59

Installed Bazzite Linux just a couple days ago where the only games that launch are native to Linux but not much else. I have installed most versions of Proton, except Experimental, Hotfix, and 9.0-1 (Beta) I tried installing these before but would get a "Disk Write Error" manage to install them to the Home folder and that worked successfully, but no luck on the external 3.5 drive where I have all my games installed with the rest of the other versions of Proton. I also searched the sub and came across some other posts similar to my problem and deleted the folders in Steam Library/steamapps/compatdata as well as run the steam command in terminal and everything there was fine. Oh and I also have Custom Proton-GE 9.5 - 7.20 installed as well.

Anything else I forgot to mention just ask, Thank you!

No good choice GPU

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 30. Mai 2024 - 07:41

Hi, I'm currently looking to build a new rig and wanted to go AMD (7900xtx) for best compatibility with Linux. I'm running a 4k tri screen setup (only the main is used for gaming).

Then I found out about the monstrous idle consumption bug with multiple monitors (~100watts). That's not acceptable, especially living in a country where electricity is very high).

From what I understand I only have these choices : - playing russian roulette with the 7900xtx and pray that my rig will not be affected - buying Nvidia and cross finger explicit sync merge will be the end of the bugs with Wayland.. - waiting till AMD release a new GPU generation

What are your thoughts?

Need help with Crashing Issues <3

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 30. Mai 2024 - 02:42

Hello!

I recently switched from Windows to Linux (Using Linux Mint 21.3) and it's been a pretty awesome experience/change overall but there's an annoying issue that I'm running into that I can't seem to find a solution to. So far, to my knowledge, this hard-crash does not happen while just using the desktop, only when playing games.

Specs:

Intel Core i7 14900k

AMD 7900XTX Red Devil

64 GB DDR5 RAM

Linux Mint 21.3

Kernel: 6.5.0-27-generic

Mesa version: 24.0.8 from Kisak-mesa PPA

X11 Display Server (Wayland currently unstable/testing for Mint)

For whatever reason I'm running into issues with certain games in which my system 100% completely locks up while playing. I checked logs and I did see wine64 do a core dump around 7:56 PM yesterday which is around the time where Diablo IV completely locked up my system. Here's a snippet of the error:

Process 3421 (wine64) of user 1000 dumped core.

Found module ~/.local/share/lutris/runners/wine/wine-ge-8-26-x86_64/bin/wine64 with build-id: b06896eced74105a2ee515c66a1e7d9346ad33fb

Games that have currently crashed/have crashed:
Diablo IV - Only recently started hard-locking my system

XDefiant (this one i'm not that worried about cause it literally came out so understandable)

Borderlands 3 Steam (System package Steam, not flatpack Steam) So far no crashes on lowest settings but disappointing because I can run this game no problem with max settings except for the annoying lock-ups.

Changes I've done to /etc/sysctl.conf:

vm.max_map_count = 2147483642

kernel.split_lock_mitigate=0 (I tried re-enabling this to see if it's causing the crashing but issue persists whether it's on or off)

Troubleshooting steps i've taken:

Roll-back from Kernel 6.5.0-35 to 6.5.0-27 (I noticed this crashing way more when I updated kernel versions so I rolled back, but I'm still locking up)

Try different proton version (GE, lutris default ones, default steam ones for steam games,etc...)

I noticed that lutris likes to default enable DXVK-NPAPI/DLSS which is not needed since i'm on AMD so I disable it.

Applications I typically have open while gaming (may help identify an issue):

Discord Flatpack version

Firefox Flatpack version

Steam and/or lutris depending on which app I use to run the game

Any help and/or questions regarding additional information for diagnosing is welcomed. Thank you so much!

PS: "Just install x distro" is not something I'm willing to do. To me that would be an absolute last ditch effort and I'm honestly liking Linux Mint a lot.

Has anybody had LVM crash their systems while gaming?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 30. Mai 2024 - 01:20

Between recent driver updates and firmware all of my hardware seems to be working properly together on Linux so I decided to pull the trigger and wipe windows to move over to Linux on desktop since I've already done that on my laptop. While I was installing OpenSUSE I decided to use LVM so I could just increase my storage pool by adding drives as I move my Windows data over rather than having them appear separately and managing mount points. All appeared fine until I booted up Helldivers 2 and tried to drop in. The game crashed and the disk was reporting read-write errors and wasn't letting me run any commands successfully. No big deal, probably just something corrupt when I transferred over my configs, so I did a fresh install and tried Helldivers again before transferring everything over with the same result. I decided to try an install on a spare drive with everything identical except traditional partitions instead of LVM and everything worked fine. Never seen anything like that happen before, and I figured LVM is mature enough that problems like that would have been worked out already.

Budget Linux gaming..mini pc?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 30. Mai 2024 - 00:34

I was looking at maybe making a budget gaming Linux PC, when a couple of mini PC options popped up, and for value they seem pretty awesome.

Contemplating perhaps the Beelink Ser5?

Here's what I would like to be able to do for around the $300-500 price range: -potentially dual boot (windows+Kubuntu?) I like to play League of Legends hence the windows. - On Linux I'd like to play relatively simple or old games - nothing too recent. - I'd like to be able to use waydroid to play some Google play games. Seems Wayland plays well with KDE? Hence Kubuntu. Am I getting that right? - Just have a relatively decent work horse that I may use for video editing/ office work etc.

A lot of the mini PCs I'm looking at are pure AMD (CPU Ryzens with built in AMD GPUs). Any driver or kernel issues I should know about?

Anyone using any mini PC brands they recommend for a Linux - gaming -PC?

Keyboard and Mouse recommendations

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 30. Mai 2024 - 00:29

Hey! It's that time of year where I try my hand at Linux again! This time I'm gonna give Kubuntu or Bazzite a try, but one of the things that always trips me up is getting my keyboard and mouse working properly. I play games quite a bit and I've been using a Logitech G915 tlk and a Logitech Pro X Superlight on a powerplay mat. If these are known to work now, then I've got no questions, just here to say you guys rock. Otherwise:

At this point I'm comfortable changing to something different, but with the following caveats:
keyboard: Low profile, tactile feel (Thinking browns, or milky yellows), wired is fine, no preference there.
Mouse: Ultra-light, wireless.

I was hoping to come here and see what people recommend. Budget is no issue (I mean, nothing above 4 digits for the pair, let's be reasonable).

Thanks for your replies!
