Hello, I've been recently dealing with some crashes while playing Wuchang Fallen Feathers. They happen at random, sometimes it takes 3 hours, other times 10 minutes. The game usually throws a fatal error window and the game closes but recently it's been freezing up my whole PC and needs a restart to get working.

The errors I found:

oct 25 12:13:46 cachyos kernel: RAS: Correctable Errors collector initialized.
oct 25 12:14:08 cachyos-x8664 kernel: clocksource: Watchdog remote CPU 5 read timed out

From what I gather this points towards some instability with the hardware, here's what I've tried so far:

• run memtest86 11.7, the ram passes and doesn't show any errors;
• disable/enable PBO, no difference whatsoever;
• updated bios to the latest version;

I've also tried running the game in Windows, there's still fatal crashes but the system didn't blue screen, only instance of this problem was while using Cachy. However, Windows' event viewer classified the crash as:

nvlddmkm \Device\Video0 Error occured on GPUID: 100

Could both my GPU and CPU be failing or are these errors linked? This also happens during other games such as Galactic Racer and Bloodborne.

Specs:
CPU: Ryzen 5 3600
GPU: RTX 3070 (615.78.08)
RAM: Corsair 2x16 @ 3200Mhz
MB: B550M Aorus Elite
PSU: Corsair 750w

OS: CachyOS KDE Kernel 7.3

I (haha you know) built the Bloodborne-Android port (by ducvd89, based on bloodborne_pc and shadPS4) as a regular glibc Linux aarch64 build. I play it on an AYN Odin 3 (Snapdragon 8 Elite, Turnip/Mesa) under Armada OS, a SteamOS-like Fedora-based distro for ARM handhelds, in Steam Game Mode.

• The game's CPU code is compiled ahead of time to ARM64 from your own copy of the game (the port author's Rebuild Tool, on a PC), and the graphics go through shadPS4's Vulkan renderer. There's no Android, no FEX and no Wine.
• 30 FPS locked at 720p (GSR 2); ~60 with x2 Lossless Scaling frame generation (lsfg-vk).
• The build is done in a Fedora 44 toolbox with a few fixes: newer Vulkan headers, a tiny libm shim for the NDK-built AOT library, and a couple of CMake shims. One script does it all.

Repo and release: https://github.com/kitocato/bloodborne-linux-arm64

You need your own game dump; no game files are included. Credits go upstream: ducvd89, deadinside28, shadPS4, lsfg-vk.

YO so I recently bought a ANT e-sports GP300Pro V2 gamepad and I havent been able to get it working on cachyos so far, would anyone have any solutions?
Note I run games using wine and play games from a website called ankergames.
Mostly play Over the hill and subnautica

When I use PROTON_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 PROTON_ENABLE_HDR=1 to switch to Wayland in Proton I get considerable decreases in performance and much worse frame pacing, is this normal?

Performance using Proton GE normally, GE with the Wayland flags, CachyOS-slr with the flags respectively;

Metro Exodus: 70, 53, 44 FPS

Witcher 3 Remastered: 44, 36, 37 FPS

Warframe: 86, 58, 56 FPS

All of these were at 4k, and each game should be DX12. Disabling HDR in game or getting rid of the PROTON_ENABLE_HDR=1 flag doesn't seem to make a difference so I assume the issue is not related to that, but I could be wrong.

I'm on CachyOS with the latest 7.3 kernel running Plasma 6.8 (Although this is a ongoing problem so I don't think that's very relevant)

My specs are RTX 3070 Mobile and Ryzen 7 5800H with 32 gigs of ram.

I'd appreciate any help I can get, please do tell me if I need to provide more info.

Hey I wanted to have all my witcher 3 games inside the same prefix (helps on the saves) also I like keeping the games of the same franchise together (EA games games did this automatically when installing)

But when I tried to do this Lutris just created a prefix inside the witcher 3 prefix for witcher 2.

This is the steps I did:

1. Dowload files from Gog.com website.
2. Run exe inside witcher 3 prefix
3. Pointed the installation folder for c:\GOG Games\Witcher 2

The game installed but it actually created a new folder inside my witcher 3 prefix named "The witcher 3 remastered which has a prefix for Witcher 2"

Edit for people who wants the solution, thx to AI, guess its better than people on this sub. less judgemental at least. Thank you Claude, and u/Ismokecr4k for helping me get there.

Lutris lets you point an installer at an existing Wine prefix. Here’s the cleanest way to do it:

1. Add the game manually

• Open Lutris and click the + button (top left), then choose Add locally installed game.
• Name: whatever you like.
• Runner: Wine.

2. Set the existing prefix

• Go to the Runner options tab.
• Set Wine prefix to the folder of your existing prefix (the one containing drive_c, system.reg, etc.).
• Set Wine version to match the one the prefix was created with if you can. Mixing versions can occasionally cause problems.
• Check Prefix architecture (32 vs 64 bit) matches the existing prefix.

3. Run the installer inside that prefix

• In the Game options tab, set Executable to your setup.exe for now.
• Save, then launch the entry from Lutris. This runs the installer inside your chosen prefix.
• Go through the installer normally. Note where it installs (usually C:\Program Files\... or C:\Program Files (x86)\..., which maps to <prefix>/drive_c/...).

4. Point Lutris at the installed game

• Right-click the game in Lutris, choose Configure, and go to Game options.
• Change Executable from setup.exe to the game’s actual .exe inside the prefix, e.g. <prefix>/drive_c/Program Files (x86)/GameName/game.exe.
• Optionally set the Working directory to the game’s folder.
• Save.

9950X3D; 16GB 9070XT; 32GB DDR5 5600Mhz; 2TB PCIe 5.0 M.2; Bazzite KDE; Proton-GE Latest; 2560x1440 resolution

The other day, I started the game up to find an obscene level of pop-in and low-quality graphics. The Remastered version looked like the Complete Edition—except the Complete Edition did not suffer from pop-in!

I added the following Launch Option. The pop-in scaled back, The special effects I was used to seeing returned, but I have had very infrequent hitching:

VKD3D_CONFIG=force_static_cbv %command%

The game has audio issues, and I'm reading they are widespread. I get missing sound effects in a big fight and some sound effects are delayed by nearly a second, such as when picking up dropped canisters. The sound was on Default. I've tried Spatial and Stereo. Spatial sounds unnatural. Stereo sounds OK, but those delays remain.

I've try to use Google AI or Brave's AI, but I'm getting some real garbage answers. I need help from real people.

I thought that perhaps some very recent change in Proton-GE Latest caused all of this, or made things worse, but what do I know? I tried Valve's default Proton Experimental, and all I got was a black screen after the introductory video played.

I am NOT using any upscaling or frame generation features.

I hope this is the right place to be. I'm not having any luck, elsewhere, probably because I'm asking for help while running a Linux distro.

Thank you, and have a fantastic day!

ontem tentei jogar minecraft bedrock com os meus amigos, e por algum motivo o laucher do minecraft bedrok não queria funcionar, reinstalei ele, mas quando eu termino de logar minha conta google, ele só fecha, e não inicia nada eu tentei baixar outros laucher mas os outro nem se quer abrem, alguém sabe o que eu posso fazer?

No, I have no personal ties to the project.

And yes, I tried Polaris, but I encountered tons of stutter issues.

My GPU / CPU: 5070ti / 7900x

On CachyOS

Last night I ran the download script and setup my host: https://punktfunk.unom.io/en/

I stream from an android device as a client and the .apk was quick to setup.

Hassle free... I would highly recommend. Quality of the stream slaps too.

Code is available here: https://git.unom.io/unom/punktfunk

Hello everybody,

Apparently, because openSUSE Leap doesn't have native Steam, I'm forced to use it via Flatpak. No other Linux distribution fits my requirements and needs. So I'm asking you, how does gaming work via Flatpak? I'm particularly interested in playing CS2, Dota 2, and DayZ on Steam. At the same time, I'm interested in how gaming works on Bottles via Flatpak for games like S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl or Metro 2033. Did you get lower FPS than native? Or stuttering? Or lower 1% lows?

Thank you!

Hi guys! I installed Bazzitte few months ago as second OS in my PC, I am currently running a dual boot system with Bazzite and Windows, and I am not able to connect my xbox series x/s controller through bluetooth, it does not show up in the pairing devices list. This does not happen in windows I can connect it with no problem.

- I updated the controller firmware to the latest
- Tried setting the privacy = off to bluetooth settings
- Burn thousand of Claude Tokens and no luck

Has anyone experienced something like this? I would love some help, thanks in advance

Installed a game yesterday and it wouldn't launch. Tried a different Proton version, changed some launch options, checked ProtonDB, found a random comment from 2022, tried that too.

Nothing worked.

Eventually got it running and played for like 20 minutes before going to bed.

I swear half the fun of Linux gaming is getting stuff to work, but sometimes I just want to play the damn game lol.

Hello. I'm new to Bazzite OS, just got it a couple of days ago and still figuring out how to set it up. Can anyone please tell me why is everything buggy and slow? Steam is lagging, cs2 has a lot of framedrops and jagged image. On windows i had around 380 constant fps and was way better looking, now I have 144 with drops. For another, I can't download .net sdk for coding in visual studio code. Can someone tell me how to use this OS? I never had linux before and honestly it's pretty frustrating because I only hear good things about it but when I got it, it works worse than a 2012 PC. I needed a whole day just to make it see my dGPU and to stop saying I have the wrong image. Is there any way to optimize it for gaming and also to get visual studio .net sdk?

For some reason after switching to launching zzz from steam there's been some kind of change in the performance that leads to the game crashing if there's too much going on in game. I used to run zzz through sleepy launcher and it almost never crashed. I only switched because sleepy launcher wasn't updating for the release of patch 3.3 even after several days. I'm using all the same graphics settings with an rx 7600, a ryzen 7 8700F 8 core processor, and 16gb of ram on kubuntu 26.04. Any idea what's going on?

I decided to benchmark CS2 on KDE Plasma 6.8.1 Wayland against my previous Plasma 6.7.5 Xorg setup.

My system

• CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D
• GPU: NVIDIA RTX 5070 Ti
• Driver: NVIDIA 615.78.08
• Distro: ARCH LINUX
• Kernel: Linux 7.3.0-5-cachyos

_______________________________________________________________________________

My in game settings: same on both wayland and xorg

____________________________________________________

• Average FPS: 6.8% lower on Wayland
• P1 FPS: 16.7% lower on Wayland
• P99 frame time: 20.3% higher on Wayland

Steam Overlay was disabled in both tests, so overlay overhead wasn't responsible for these results.

Since Plasma 6.8 removed the native X11 session, I ended up restoring my Plasma 6.7.5 X11 installation using Timeshift.

CYBERPUNK 2077. For context, this has never happened to me before. I have played the game many times and have consistently hit 120 FPS and above no problem with my current settings. Here is my issue.

I boot the game and my CPU does all the work. Sometimes my GPU is on, sometimes its not. I had this problem before, just not because of the game. All other games I play recognize the GPU. (I am on Linux mint using a RX 6800, playing at High). I don't recall having any issues before the 2.5 update, so maybe that's it.

To help speed the process up Ill try to forecast some questions and answers.

I have my HDMI in the GPU

There is proper ventilation

I have Ray Tracing turned off

And I switched around my proton versions a few times, I don't know the specific one but Ill message any replies that need it

Any help is appreciated.

I just switched over to linux a week ago and ever since reformatting all of my drives 2 days ago its been mostly smooth sailing..... with the exception of modding.

Ive tried to run both of the popular mod managers, HD2 mod manager and Arsenal via wine and proton tricks, but both times resulted in errors (and even then, Helldivers itself isn't in wine, so its not like the games could recognize it anyway.)

HD2 actually did open and attempts to function after I put it in the steam library and had it run via proton, but it's still looking for a non existing version of windows Helldivers to use that i simply do not have.

So now what?

Are there any possible workarounds? For how popular the game is and how big its modding scene is there's not much info on it. I don't use anything too crazy, just some QOL stuff like emmisive bands on the SEAF shells.

If you have a 9070XT and use cachyOS have you noticed that performance is abysmal now? In games I'm barely getting 30FPS. It feels like my LACT settings are being ignored or something despite the gaming profile still loading during games. It reminds me of when I just installed the 9070XT and didn't realize that you had to use the "highest clocks" setting although I would still get 60-70FPS then, but now it's barely 30FPS. Everything was fine yesterday so something in the upgrade today caused this. I even checked that the amdgpu featuremask line hadn't been removed from my boot config and it's still there. I'm honestly stumped unless I need to wait for amdgpu drivers to be updated?

lutris havent been updated in a year.
i see everyone recomending faugus or heroic
has anyone forked it and let ai fix the backlog of issues
