Hello, I'm playing Dark Souls 3 on my Linux desktop PC and noticed it drops frames every few minutes. I still consider myself a Linux newbie but any assistance is welcome! Thank you for your time!

Hey guys,

I'm running a totally fresh arch install with KDE.

My basic setup seems to be fine, performance in games is as expected.

Now to my issue:

I'm playing Company of Heroes 3, a RTS, and I'm using the middle mouse button to drag the camera, meaning I click and hold the middle mouse button and then move the mouse to move the camera.

Now, if the mouse is still when I do the middle-mouse-hold and then move, all is fine.

However, if the mouse is already moving while I dmiddle-mouse-hold + drag, the camera then jumps across the map, the faster the initial mouse movement, the further the jump.

That makes the game totally unplayable for me, as my view is not where I'd expect it to be.

Anyone got an idea how I could mitigate this?

Edit: Mouse acceleration is off in KDE

Hi, guys.

I'm new to the Linux world, and would like to ask for some help with Steam save games. Steam cloud isn't working well and when I open Blasphemous, it doesn't syncronized my last save.

I've downloaded my last save from the Steam cloud as you can see below.

But now I need to know where to put this so I can play the game with my last save from Windows. :c

I've tried to put in two directories:

1. /home/user/.config/unity3d/TheGameKitchen/Blasphemous/Savegames/IDnumber/savegame_2/
2. /run/media/user/HD/SteamLibrary/steamapps/compatdata/774361/

I have a SSD and a HD in my desktop (don't know if this matters). The second try was on HD. And nothing happened. I still can't get the right save.

I don't know what else to do, so, please, can someone help me? Thanks.

As the post says, my FFB is acting all funky. I've managed to test one other game and it basically has no FFB apart from vibration caused by collisions. Any insight would be appreciated

Basically im trying to run Minecraft fabric 1.20.1 on KDE arch linux through curseforge, and whenever I start the game, there's no audio, and when I check my audio settings on my PC itself there's nothing in the applications tab... the weird thing is that it works perfectly fine on 1.21.11. Does anyone else have this issue? And if so is there any fixes?

I have the same issue as the user who posted this:

https://www.reddit.com/r/linux_gaming/comments/1p9gwgw/is_there_a_way_i_can_keep_alive_hdmi_audio_on/

However, that post seems to be abandoned now and the solutions don't seem to work with pipewire.

My PC uses an HDMI connection to a Samsung soundbar receiver, so the sound goes into a suspend mode when not active. That creates a really annoying second (up to about 2 seconds sometimes) that there's no sound when I start media playing. It may sound minor, but it can sometimes be enough to miss the first half of a sentence or the intro to music.

The post I referenced above mentions solutions for alsa. I'm running Linux Mint 22.3 with pipewire, so I haven't had any luck with solutions meant for alsa or pulse.

Has anyone had luck with generating a constant inaudible sound output to keep their HDMI receiver awake on pipewire??

So I really need some help, I’ve decided to leave windows and go to Linux. And I found two I’m leaning heavily towards, Linux mint and pop!_OS, I have all AMD. And I mostly just game and internet. I already know certain games don’t work, and those games I don’t even play. So my question which of the two distros is best for a Linux beginner? Or do you recommend a third?.

Hi everyone!

I recently switched my ASUS TUF F15 to Linux Mint and realized there wasn't a great GUI for controlling fans and GPU modes without using the terminal or generic scripts.

So, I decided to build my own "Command Center" using Python.

Project: NeuroBoost Ultimate It’s a standalone system optimizer designed to replace the core functions of Armoury Crate on Linux.

[Screenshot attached]

Current Features:

• 🚀 3 Native Modes: Silent, Balanced, and Turbo (Directly talks to the ASUS WMI kernel driver).
• 🎮 "AI" Auto-Pilot: Watcher service that detects when I launch a game (Steam, Cyberpunk, etc.) and automatically switches the laptop to Turbo mode.
• 📊 Real-Time Dashboard: Live graphing of GPU Temp, CPU Load, and Clock Offsets.
• ⚡ Safe Overclocking: Simple slider to boost NVIDIA Memory Clocks via nvidia-settings.
• 🛡️ Universal Support: Working on a fallback mode for AMD users (so it doesn't crash if nvidia-smi isn't found).

Tech Stack:

• Python 3
• CustomTkinter (UI)
• Matplotlib (Graphs)
• asus-nb-wmi & nvidia-settings (Backend)

Status: It's currently working perfectly on my machine (TUF F15 FX506LI). I'm just polishing the code, adding an installer script, and making sure it handles different ASUS models safely before I upload the source to GitHub.

Question for the community: Is there anything specific you guys would want to see in a tool like this? I'm planning to release it as open-source once I clean up the repo.

Let me know what you think!

Cheers, Vedant

Hello!

We've been working the last few weeks in adding proper native Linux export a retro engine we've been working on.

Today we've finally managed to integrate everything, it should supports native Linux binaries as well as the AppImage export.

We've tested Kubnutu 25, Fedora and Linux Mint.

Any other major distros we should be testing into??
We're also wondering if supporting .deb and .rpm export would be worth adding or just native binaries + AppImage is enough.

Thanks!!

Hi!

Did some very brief benchmarking, nothing scientific. All FPS are average. All games on max details.

System: 7600 Oced, 9070 XT (2.750 Mem, -75mv), 32 GB DDR5

OS: CachyOS

UE5 gains are quite amazing!

I want to try exporting some models from roblox studio and vinegar used to open before, but now it doesn't. Why? I've tried flatpak run org.vinegarhq.Vinegar and this error message came:

ERR Error! err="setup: exec: \"/home/.../.var/app/org.vinegarhq.Vinegar/data/vinegar/kombucha/bin/wineserver\": stat /home/.../.var/app/org.vinegarhq.Vinegar/data/vinegar/kombucha/bin/wineserver: no such file or directory"

I've read that roblox is blocking wine support even more. The only thing that still works is sober but you can't really open studio with it. What can I do? Is there a different way of getting roblox studio to run?

I installed the flatpak version of vinegar and I'm using linux mint, if that's important to know.

If I launch the same title through Steam it's almost instant (even if there's another launcher in the middle). On Heroic launcher it takes upwards of 2-3 minutes.

i5 13600K

32GB DDR5 6000

PCI-E gen 5 (no, not NTFS, default CachyOS format)

AMD 9070XT

Tried it with all sorts of different proton versions. Nothing really seems to make a difference.

Some games I need to use Heroic launcher for (i.e. Epic games titles like Fall Guys) because running them through Steam won't work (I get an authentication error).
