I have the Nova Pro Wireless, not the 7’s, but they have the 2.4GHz dongle as well and I’ve had no trouble getting them to work in Linux. The Steelseries GG software I have not had luck getting to work through wine.
TIL about FEX-Emu. This looks absolutely incredible! x86 emulation on Arm64 with this level of performance so early on seems like an absolute game changer.
The problem solves reverting a commit and building Mesa with that change. If I do that I will have to rebuild Mesa everytime I want to update. That doesn’t sound like a solution for me.
What do you mean by peak performance? I’ve installed Manjaro GNOME on my Asus Tuf Gaming laptop and am able to play Steam games with good performance. I set the power saving mode in GNOME settings to minimal, that’s all.
I usually uninstall armory crate and other manufacturer bloat from gaming laptop while using windows and i use high performance power plan on windows. But armoury crate unclocks better high performance modes delivering more power to cpu. Since you have no armoury crate/msi centre on linux you will never know the performance you are leaving behind. Correct me if i am wrong.
You can at least do this by using the performance CPU governor although there is a fair amount of nuance here in that how it’s implemented depends on the CPU and a few other things. In general, it’s a safe starting point, however.
If armoury crate is a CPU overclocking utility, than that is another matter. There is some CPU overclocking support on Linux, although I’m mostly familiar with AMD CPUs and this support differs by manufacturer. This page isn’t a bad starting point if you use an AMD CPU.
Our asus-linux community has implemented support for most of the ASUS ROG models. There’s some TUF support available AFAIK but the focus was mostly on the ROG machines.
Check out asus-linux.org for the software details, there are binary repos available for Fedora and Arch.
Every freaking little indie game can give you an extra Steam key but Blizzard can't? The game was expensive enough already, what the fuck do we even pay for? To be just another cow to be further milked?
From what I remember Linux does t like writing to NTFS formatted partitions, that was the case a few years ago, but maybe that changes since the new NTFS code was merged into the kernel “recently”.
@Silejonu@Natal@pete_the_cat then, how is it that usb keys and drives work with both windows and linux, once they have been formatted? Is there a different filesystem involved in that case? I, for one, didn't have issues writing on a USB drive, is that an uncommon scenario?
Reading/writing multimedia files (videos, pictures, audio, text documents...) on an NTFS partition works without issues. The issue arises when using one as a system partition (to install video games on, or worse, the whole Linux install). I don't know exactly what's causing issues, but my guess is metadata/permissions get messed up on NTFS when used on Linux.
Yeah, every time I tried, I used the latest GE version. Tried regular Wine and Proton too, and the result is always the same, I dunno what’s the deal with it.
