Koffiato , in Counter-Strike 2 System Requirements for Linux

I wonder if it has a native Vulkan renderer now or it just has DXVK baked in. If the latter, bad news is it halves my framerate İN CS2LT on Windows.

Chewy7324 ,

Source 2 has native Vulkan and DX11 suppport. CS2 on Linux uses Vulkan.

Even without the ‘-vulkan’ launch parameter?

    Yeah, this kinda gives the impression of this old stereotypical Linux image as a gaming platform where we all just play Tux Racer and weird Solitaire clones.

    Newbies for what though? I’d be surprised a Linux newbie would find themselves on this page, I’m not really sure who this is for

    If I was a newbie shopping around for a DE, I would probably be perusing websites like kde.org to get a feel for the visual style and features and such

    bionicjoey ,

    I agree. It’s bragging about a bunch of things that either aren’t part of KDE or aren’t really gaming. It’s like if MS made a “Gaming on Windows” page to advertise solitaire, minesweeper, pinball, and Steam.

    Really excited to switch from Win7 to Linux!

    luciferofastora ,

    Did the same when faced with the choice “Lose support, move to Win10, or jump ship entirely?” and installed Ubuntu only. It was a daunting leap for sure, but I’ve only looked back for one particular program that I don’t actually need usually and can run inside a VM.

    Yeah, seems like it is preferring the ALSA backend. Sound initially worked for me because I had pipewire-alsa installed, but I couldn’t do anything to change the volume.

    I recently learned about Sysrq + f to kill running processes making the computer hang. Before finding about this I had to manually restart the PC via power button. I wonder if KDE should make it easier to enable this feature considering they have something to kill processes already but it’s less powerful than Sysrq.

    I was doubtful that the Steam Deck would take off enough for game devs to even make *considerations" to think about any decisions that would improve their game’s compatibility with Proton.

    Im really glad I was wrong

    Even as a decades long Linux user, I never thought it would sell like it did. And that the editors followed is even more surprising.

    I got one early on, even though I really have a hard time using a controller interface for the first time. So I end up not using it as much as I’d like.

    root , in Linux interoperability is maturing fast thanks to SteamOS

    I built a new gaming PC almost a year ago and decided to jump into the deep end by installing only Linux. 3 reinstalls later and Linux is still the only OS installed. So far so good. :p

    By 3 reinstalls do you mean you were distro-hopping, if so which did you use and what did you like?

    For flatpak steam, you need to run this:

    flatpak override --user --filesystem=/run/user/1000/pipewire-0 com.valvesoftware.Steam

    Then -sdlaudiodriver pipewire launch option will work.

    This is happening with dota 2 as well, probably it was messed up on the engine level.

    You should also be able to set the SDL_AUDIODRIVER environment variable to pipewire to get this effect globally.

    Oh, dope, thanks! I hope this doesn’t fuck up anything that’s hardcoded to expect Pulse or something, but I guess I’ll find out.
