Hi! I recently installed tomb Raider GOTY edition from epic on my PC running arch, through heroic launcher. Tried different ge-proton, proton and wine setups but the game doesn’t even launch. I’ve tried launching it through heroic, added it to steam and launched from there with same outcome. I didn’t even get an error nag....

Yume Nikki has a Platinum rating on ProtonDB but I’m having some trouble trying to get it to work....

Im trying to get into using linux so that I can leave windows bloated mess but ive tried flashing nobara 37 & 38 to a usb, only reaches the grub screen and then gets stuck on a black screen. ive tried with the fedora workstation distro and it does the same. Then I tried popos and it runs perfectly fine? so im not sure what the...

Anyone can help me? I wasn’t able to find any solution for this. The controller works via USB-C just fine but I only have a very short cable, I borrowed the controller from a friend to try it and don’t have the original cable but I was intending to play via Bluetooth anyways....

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?

I’m on Fedora and I use the xone driver for a wireless Xbox One X/S controller. Every time I update the kernel the xone driver disappears so I need to reinstall it constantly (I assume it’s because of how Fedora handles backup kernel versions). It was not like this back when I was using an arch based distro so is there a way...

Hi everyone! Yesterday I bought Hearts of Iron 4 on Steam but it didn’t run at all on wayland. I tried using Proton Experimental, Proton GE latest, Proton 8.0.2 but none worked (even though on ProtonDB people say it works with proton 8.0.2). Then I switched to Xorg (which I never use and I would like not to), and it suddenly...

Hi, I would like to now if there is any closed source nvidia driver (the better one for gaming) for Nvidia Quadro FX1800. I wanted to show my brother some of linuxon my old laptop and I don’t want to make him bugged off by lack of gaming on it.

Hi all. I been searching and testing things all day and haven’t had luck....

Hey all, anyone else running Chimera or HoloIso (I’m not opposed to switching) through an AVR with any success? For some reason the audio drops frequently even after a new HDMI....

I’ve never played any Baldurs Gate, but am interested in playing the upcoming one. Checking proton db, it looks like the previous games had good Linux support (even native support?)....

I have played that game a lot in my old days on Windows, but under Linux I have a lot of crashes. I have installed the game via Steam and it starts in to mainmenu. But mostly when I try to start a game, it crashes. After reading some tips, I have changed proton to GE-Proton 8.3. with that crashes occur a little bit rarer, but to...

I run to Ubuntu or Linux Mint on everything except my gaming PC. Every year or two I try out Linux for gaming and usually go back to windows. With steam deck out it seems like Linux gaming is the best it’s ever been. With that said I’m still a bit frustrated with freezing (halo mcc) and Bluetooth being super flakey on my...

Text descriptions, neofetches, photos; it’s all fine!

I know this is clutter but the music legit has some hypnotizing nature to it, lol

I recently installed BattleBit Remastered on Steam (uses EAC). Upon trying to run the game, I only get as far as a screen telling me to ensure EAC is installed. I tried their “repair EAC” option in steam, and there was no change (a terminal opens, blinks, and closes again). I tried a system update to see if that would help,...

This is a copy of my comment from Reddit....

I just noticed that the recently updated version of Battle.net cannot be installed correctly on PopOS anymore. I can still launch and play Overwatch 2 with a previously installed version. However, if I try to install it from scratch, it would get installed but won’t run in the foreground. There is a background process and...

The only thing keeping me pinned on Linux is my Flight Simulator setup, where I main MSFS2020 alongside several add-ons. Has anyone here been able to get a functioning setup off of windows with this game? Would love to finally ditch the windows partition once and for all.

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?

Does anyone here have experience with gaming on immutable distros like Fedora Silverblue, Fedora Kinote, OpenSUSE MicroOS or any other general desktop variants? I know SteamOS 3 and ChimeraOS are both immutable, but they come with all kernel mods and libraries baked in....

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!

This is a recent issue, and I don’t know what has changed to cause it. There seems to be no rhyme or reason as to which games work and which ones don’t. My monitor’s resolution is set to 2560 x 1440 in the display settings, but some games don’t recognize it....
