Linux Gaming

So I swapped over to Pop!_os a couple of weeks ago, having never used Linux in my life. Honestly I blame Lemmy, but I am good with it. It has been a fantastic change....

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....

The game launcher starts but when I click on play, whole screen goes black and nothing happens. System becomes unresponsive and I need to hard reset it.

Well I’m hopping around… again. I thought I had a good stable setup going but then something happens upstream that goes against what I want/believe in (looking at you RedHat) and I’m back on the hunt again....

Hi everyone, I just finished writing a guide on everything you need to know in order to game on Linux. It covers Proton (Steam play), using Heroic Launcher (with Wine-GE), and all sorts of tidbits and tips I wish people had told me earlier. I hope this can be useful to someone out there!...

The reason keeping me from switching over to Linux is because I have a low end laptop GPU (AMD R5 M300 series) and every drop of OC is vital to me, I used MSI Afterburner on Windows and I don’t know what to use on linux that actually work and user friendly if possible

It honestly makes me wonder why i keep using windows on my main desktop if proton allows playing most anything i play

I can’t get my DualShock 4 controllers to work on Arch without ds4drv. I am pretty sure this method isn’t required anymore, because the dualshock 4 work just fine on NixOS. What am I missing? Do I need to load modules? Specific kernel or Bluetooth package? I am running the latest zen kernel with Nvidia. Same hardware as my...

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?

TLDR: From my experience, in 2023, the Mesa drivers with an AMD GPU provide an experience that is way better than NVIDIA with their proprietary drivers. And if you’re helping a friend get into linux, and or linux gaming I think you should steer them towards an AMD GPU....

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....
