I made a git hub issue, but I want to ask here as well in hope of finding success...

Run SteamVR once, then close it....

I’ve got a new 7840HS laptop, and have noticed some stability issues with games on Steam under Proton that run fine on my desktop with a 5700xt. I know the 7840 line is pretty new and not a lot out in the world yet, but has anyone noticed similar issues?

This game has recently come to my attention and it seems to work fine on Linux for now. But apparently the developers have decided to switch from their current anti-cheat (Easy Anti-cheat) to Faceit in the future, which would make it impossible to play on official servers on Linux....

I’d like to play some games from my nintendo switch in higher resolution. Is the ecosystem for that sort of thing mature, or should I wait for the bugs to get ironed out, first?

Just loaded up Halo Infinite on PopOS and it ran flawlessly. I’m blown away, and am now looking at moving up my plans to switch away from Windows for my desktop. The future of Linux gaming is bright!

So today I installed Bazzite for the first time on my computer. I continued with the pre-installed steam package (which was surprisingly not flatpak)....

Lina is Live again!! As promised I cought her stream much earlier this time. 🐸...

I’m a new Linux user, mainly using it for gaming. Loving it so far but, after playing games for about an hour the game and audio will stutter. Immediately after my wifi disconnects and has trouble or is unable to reconnect, sometimes the wifi adapter is unavailable until I reboot. I’m hoping there is a software fix and I...

SOTTR can now run in proton-experimental (it used to crash due to a missing vulkan feature), but how does it compare to the native version?...

So I’m getting the famous gray screen crash on trying to start the game....

Hiya, quick question! Do you have a system for backing up or game save files? I recently discovered GameVault, but the client seems to be a bit unfinished, from first glance, do correct me if I’m wrong. Are there any other similar clients like this? And or simple solutions for easy finding save files and backing them up?...

Hey guys,...

Note: This is a public beta release and will be updated more regularly with regression fixes prior to the Proton 9.0-1 release....

Proton:...

I was just reminded of how useful this was for me, since i was too lazy to setup fan curves in the cli with pwmconfig. This took me 10 minutes of tinkering and my temps went down a lot under load on my gpu and the machine is a lot more silent when idling.

My setup works perfectly with my old but gold RX580, the only issue is big picture: it recognize my controllers (SteamController or 8bitDo) but the buttons don’t work correctly (for example (B) doesn’t back but open a menu). I’ve tried to reset the chord or guide layout but nothing change.

Basically title. I saw a few reddit threads with this piece but wanted to see if anyone out here had any experience with trying to get Linux set up on this machine....

I already have the original Steam Deck and I’m considering the OLED model in the future. But I’ll consider the Claw if the Linux support is good. What about you guys?
