ogeist , in I'm having trouble finding Lutris on my system

Lutris is a python application, you can do git clone on the GitHub repo and you car run lutris from there. This will also use your config files as they are stored in your home directory.

ogeist ,

On an additional note, install the locate package. It will create an index of ALL the files in your computer. Making searching for files a simple task.

silver_Motoko , in I'm having trouble finding Lutris on my system

Have you considered using Heroic game launcher instead. I think its good as long as you use wine fixes instead of proton ones.

Edit: looks like lutris is installed but corrupted?

What about this command in terminal.

dpkg -l | grep -i lutris

Qvest , in I'm having trouble finding Lutris on my system

Try to look for a .desktop file in /usr/share/applications/

If it is not there, try making one in ~/.local/share/applications/

If there is no .desktop file, try looking for the binary with $ which lutris

If you find the binary, but can’t find the .desktop file, take another .desktop file as an example from /usr/share/applications/ and create a new one in ~/.local/share/applications/ with appropriate Exec= from the $ which command from earlier

Have you tried opening up the command line and typing in lutris?

Moc OP ,

Yes, that does not work either

CorrodedCranium ,
@CorrodedCranium@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

Does it say anything specific?

Moc OP , in I'm having trouble finding Lutris on my system

Edit:

  • Issue persists across system restarts
  • Issue persists across uninstalling and reinstalling Lutris.

What is unknown os?

Evrala ,

OS that didn’t report what it was, probably a mix of ancient windows installs and Linux and other OSs that resist fingerprinting so they don’t tell servers what they are.

Limonene , in Baldur’s Gate 3 countdown: Exact start time and date

Anyone know where the Linux version is? Steam only has Windows and Mac OS versions. GOG only has a Windows version.

I’m assuming there is a Linux version, because this has been posted on old.lemmy.world/c/linux_gaming . If that is incorrect, I can’t understand why it would be posted here.

rodneyck OP ,
@rodneyck@lemmy.world avatar

There is no linux version. Steam/Valve has been updating their proton versions to work with BG3. I would recommend using their ‘proton experimental.’ If you buy from GOG, you can use Lutris, they have a runner that should install everything needed to run BG3, and it also lists some tweaks to make.

SteamDeck is chad.

jazztickets , in Suddenly having funny issues with framerates: Vulkan, Mesa or something else?

GPU: AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT
Monitor Refresh Rate: 165.00 Hz
Kernel Version: 6.4.8

It’s this: gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/amd/-/issues/2657

flimsyberry ,

Indeed, for me going back to an lts version helped me work around this. Currently on 6.1 and that seems to not have this issue.

AlecStewart1st OP , (edited )

Oh boy, that’s certainly a novel issue! Well thanks for the answer and I’m glad I didn’t have to delve too deep in to trying to figure out the issue!

Excrubulent , in Got H3VR working on Pop!_OS
@Excrubulent@slrpnk.net avatar

Can confirm H3VR is necessary for a fully working OS.

How did you get it working? If I could get VR working in general I could consider getting rid of Windows myself.

Also do you find a VM is acceptable for VR and other games performance? How do you set that up?

kelvie , in Help Troubleshooting 8bitdo usb wireless adapter with xbox360 controller

I posted about it here: (sorry not sure how to do a cross-post from its instance) lemmy.ca/post/1123689?scrollToComments=true, but SDL version 2.28 is broken for 8bitdo controllers in Xbox mode, downgrading to 2.27 fixes that.

grandking3 OP , (edited )

thank you. This is the exact problem i have everything in that post is the problem I’m having. going to go through it.

90% fix after following the instructions. only problem now is both d-input and x-input have both and a/b x/y buttons switched idky. will look further into it

mpiepgrass , in Help Troubleshooting 8bitdo usb wireless adapter with xbox360 controller
@mpiepgrass@lemmy.world avatar

Have you made sure it’s in x-input mode?

grandking3 OP ,

it works in switch mode which i think it’s y+start but the a/b x/y are reversed and i have a hard time getting used to. i’ve lost save data among other things that way i’m using it out of necessity but i really prefer to get the x-input mode working which is the one giving the most problem

mpiepgrass ,
@mpiepgrass@lemmy.world avatar

What does dmesg say when you start it in x-input mode?

just_another_person , in Team Fortress 2 launch issues

Verify your game files and clear your shader caches and such. Looks like you might have some corrupted files in there from the looks of those file errors.

Shabamjenkins OP ,

I just tried to clear cache and verified the game files again but I get the same results when trying to launch the game.

just_another_person ,

Try the old uninstall>delete>reinstall, and make sure you manually go and check those riectories it mentions in the logs and clear all that out. It’s throwing ELF errors, and the executable names are garbled. I’m positive you have corrupt files in there.

Shabamjenkins OP ,

I tried uninstalling TF2 from Steam, I deleted the Team Fortress 2 folder (/home/shabamjenkins/.steam/debian-installation/steamapps/common/Team Fortress 2), restarted, reinstalled and launched again. I still get the same errors. Should I uninstall Steam altogether (or was that what you meant by uninstall>delete>reinstall)?

just_another_person ,

I was just referring to the game. Are your logs still throwing the same elf errors?

Can you post the output of: uname -a

Shabamjenkins OP ,

Yup, same ELF errors. I think the jumbled ones are slightly different but mostly the same.

shabamjenkins@ShabamJenkins:~$ uname -a Linux ShabamJenkins 5.15.0-78-generic -Ubuntu SMP Fri Jul 7 15:25:09 UTC 2023 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

just_another_person ,

The only other thing I can suggest is just completely removing Steam and installing the Flatpak release of the Steam client. This has been solving certain issues for people, and was suggested to a few F38 users, but seen others say it fixed issues. Seems like a long way to go, but…

Gaming is the only reason I still bother to install windows on desktop PCs.
