What do you use for key rebinding in games?
I’ve just switched over from Windows to Linux for my daily driver in the last few weeks, and after the initial learning curves everything seems pretty solid.

Can somebody help me launch The Rage (2001)? ( www.myabandonware.com )

Essentially giving Linux more space as it replaces Windows as my gaming daily driver. With the eventual plan to move that...

Really Impressed
I was always on Linux since Varsity but two years ago when I bought a gaming Laptop, it had Windows 11 on and worked great. I thought I would give it a chance and it was great especially for gaming. Luckily a lot of the open source software I was used to were available on windows. I also liked some of the Linux tools like the...

Headsetcontrol: max safe polling rate?
I just got myself an Arctis Nova 7X and have been trying to get chat mix to work using HeadsetControl and Nova7ChatmixLinux. The latter uses the former to poll the Nova 7X for the current chat mix balance. The creator set the polling rate at 1/sec which is a little long, but I fear it may be for hardware safety reasons. I got...
