I’m old-naughties internet café crew from around the era of the original Counter Strike through CoD MWF3 and Battlefield 2042.

I use an AMD card, playing on Bazzite. How and when, do i know when its best to use Vulkan or Directx on linux?

Nvidia hope to include their open source kernel driver in the stock kernel in the future. This would mean no more need to make sure that Nvidia driver modules are in sync with the running kernel. And is hopefully a good sign for future open sourcing of the various parts of the driver as a whole.

I just bought a nice OLED monitor and I’m trying to take advantage of it to play my games in HDR. If I run my games in gamescope, then HDR runs fine but my PS4 controller doesn’t work. If I play without gamescope, the controller works, but HDR does not....

I’m Running Linux Mint 21.3 mainly using Lutris and Steam for some native Linux games. It’s so annoying, especially when it sometimes disconnects the gamepad. I’m using an Xbox One S controller connected through a USB cable.

TL:DR; What wireless headset do you recommend (obviously works well with Linux)?...

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).

Nothing too crazy with this release, mostly just importing upstream changes from Valve this time around....

Hi y’all, I’m on EndeavourOS, wondering if I can get Steam to start minimized/tray. I know about launch commands, but I don’t know where to put them in on Linux. I tried right-clicking the app & going into the Properties, then adding -silent to the Arguments under the Application tab, but that did not do anything....
