Not sure if its the proper flair but please help. Will be installing Zorin or Ubuntu soon. I play Warcraft 3 and Age of Empires 3 DE. How can I properly install them and get them to run smoothly? Also, due to a negative amount of money 💰, I cant get the official game from Steam so to repacks we go.

Is it even possible to play a repacked game like AOE 3 with Ubuntu or Zorin? Please help

Hello, I'm building a custom PC to be used as a HTPC for gaming/media. I am going to be using the steamos style game mode on bazzite. I am trying to decide between NVIDIA and AMD for 4k game play(on a tv). I would like to get a 4090 but a while ago I remember reading that NVIDIA cards cannot handle game mode. Is this still true or is it still being worked on?

So, I've been a Windows user for a long time and recently upgraded my PC and switched from Windows 10 to Windows 11 (I thought well, it can't be that bad now and I will have to do that anyway before October). Unsurprisingly, I hate the shit out of it and can't stand it anymore.

With the recent updates to Linux, it really became an obvious choice to switch to so I finally decided to actually go for it. However, I would like some opinions about a few things.

This isn't my first time switching to Linux, I used Ubuntu for some time back in 2018 on my work laptop and it worked great but I switched to Windows because my laptop was better hardware wise and I couldn't play games.

I'm not sure what Distro to switch to, there are a gazillion distros and I'm still in the process of researching, but would like some direction.

So far I'm leaning towards Fedora KDE (Plasma). I made this decision based on the following:
- Similar Windows environment and won't feel alienated.
- Customizable and not a lot of bloat like Mint or the other custom distros.
- Will do the job just fine for web-dev stuff (I'm currently learning web development).
- Community support.
- After checking ProtonDB, Fedora KDE seems to run a lot of things smoothly after tinkering a few settings.

I'm fairly comfortable with the terminal, I'm not a pro by any means, but I do like a challenge and have always enjoyed the challenges that Linux gives me from time to time and the terminal doesn't scare me so I'm not picking distros based on difficulty, etc.

My Rig:

AMD Ryzen 5 7600
32GB DDR5
XFX 7800XT
1TB WD SN5000 M.2 Gen4

A bunch of HDD for storing non-intensive stuff, will get another SSD soon though.

Thoughts?

So I play WoW via Lutris & use WAs when raiding. One of those WA's is LiquidWeakAuras which will use the games TTS feature to announce mechanics & other stuff. Now, if anyone has used this on Linux, you will notice that the default voice is very bad (kinda sounds like Stephen Hawkings), and I wanna add additional voices so that it's a bit clearer & provides a better user experience. However, I am unable to find where WoW gets the voices to begin with.

I use Arch Linux with KDE, but I have no available setting in Accessibility to turn on TTS or change voices. I am guessing that Lutris sets it up somehow when installing Battle.net, but I don't how exactly.

Anyone have any experience with this?

Please, in the name of Torvalds, if anyone has any ideas why VRR might be breaking on an AMD GPU during certain events like tabbing in and out, opening menus, or experiencing frametime spikes, and then typically resolving itself by doing the same thing that caused the issue in the first place (i.e., opening or closing a menu, frametime spike, etc.), please help. It happens in several games.

Video of the issue: https://streamable.com/y2i9fo

In general all steam games works fine but this one its been a pain trying to open it. Get the game starting in the eac screen and on 0% crashes giving me this message. i also check protondb and its suppose to work even with online now but i cant make it start https://www.protondb.com/app/454650 . I have install the proton eac runtime tool btw so not idea of why doesnt leave me in. also try on native runtime but not luck. pd: never run an eac game cause dont play usually online so no idea if its only this particular game or if its a problem with eac in general.
