Hi everyone, I just finished writing a guide on everything you need to know in order to game on Linux. It covers Proton (Steam play), using Heroic Launcher (with Wine-GE), and all sorts of tidbits and tips I wish people had told me earlier. I hope this can be useful to someone out there!...
I have 2 drives in my machine. Linux right now is installed on 1/4 of the first drive and I am going to start moving parts of my 2nd drive, which is just games on Windows, to a 1/2 combo of NTFS and BTRFS. Essentially giving Linux more space as it replaces Windows as my gaming daily driver. With the eventual plan to move that...
I’ve been seeing a few of this type of post, so I decided to share mine. Now, you might be wondering “why the heck is this guy posting his steam playtime chart in a Linux gaming community, when most of it is windows?”...
Half serious question because I’ve been browsing this for a while, but, is this /c/ really about Linux gaming? Most if not every post is about Steam, Proton, Windows games, and Windows game companies. Feels more like /c/windowsgamingonlinux to me, which I’m not contra to but, I feel it deprives some naming space (good names...

Hi guys! Brand new PC…And I’m trying to install its brand new 7800XT. I’ve chosen KDE Neon, as it was my previous OS, and I’ve grown to like it. I’d like to stick with it if possible…I’m writing this preamble, because when I try to run amdgpu-install from the AMD downloads page, all I get is:...
Getting around 130fps avg frames, sometime dipping down into the 80’s, when playing CS2. Did a recent system upgrade and presumed performance would be better than this for the build?...

Larian Studios has published the official start time for Baldur’s Gate 3, which is a global release and will be available to players around the world at the same time. Release times can be seen below:...
I’ve been using Arch on an old laptop for a few years now, but I use Pop on my gaming desktop. I’ve wanted to switch to Arch for a long while now, but haven’t had the motivation (if it ain’t broke, and all that). I’m finally ready to do it, but I’m a little concerned about my gaming experience. Are there any gotchas...
Question to help me increase my understanding on what’s going on in the Linux desktop stack. I’ve heard Gnome doesn’t support VRR while KDE does....
i’ve been interested in switching to linux for gaming but i’m not sure how the games i play run; i like to play Apex legends and Overwatch 2 competitively. can linux run these games with low latency and high frame rate? i’m looking into the Nobara project and pikaOS distros
SOLUTION: Apparently there’s some sort of bug in xwayland that causes Steam games to flicker, so “downgrading” to X11 solved it (for now). Now all I need to know is how to file a bug report for this....
