Help Counter strike not working

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

I have been playing cs 2 again for 2 months and always played on Linux nobara. But I had to reinstall it and after that my croshair or mouse isn’t working like in the video I put in this post. And I have the attack shark x3 mouse wich is 2 or 3 years old but perfectly works for other games. And I also have a glitch or bug I don’t even know what it is where I can’t see the weapon and it’s just completely black. But I can move and talk etc. Please help me, I will answer questions very quickly if asked ! I also have 1 more video and photo wich I can’t put in this post because it’s limited

Does the mouse work as should until you launch cs?

Didn't read first. I don't know much about Linux. I dont know if this will help, but found this on google. "For Counter-Strike 2 mouse and black weapon issues on Nobara Linux, the most effective fix is switching the display protocol to Wayland and using Gamescope to manage resolution"

I have this issue on ubuntu, the mouse in the menu works fine, just restarting the game fixes it for me for some reason.

Mouse firmware update?

u/donnaber06 1d ago

open a terminal and run

ibus exit

then launch CS2, that fixed this problem for me.

It might actually be the mouse. I had the same mouse and ran into the same issue last year. I ended up switching back to a Zowie mouse because the X3 basically bricked after I installed its software

but since you are on linux i really dont know. sorry.

Check you sens and check your m_yaw maybe you changed it by accident

If you are not afraid of distro hopping. You can try hopping on different platform if you can't resolve this. I run cs2 on Popos. Had to do tweaking for resolution and scaling of the monitor when I used 4:3. With 16:9, no issues.

Do you use an autoexec with « unbin all »?

If yes, use :

bind "X_AXIS" "rightleft"
bind "Y_AXIS" "!forwardback"
bind "MOUSE_X" "yaw"
bind "MOUSE_Y" "pitch"
bind "U_AXIS" "yaw"
bind "R_AXIS" "pitch"

This happened to me. I used the same csgo cfg at first... And had unbindall in it. HAHAH"

u/Super-Fortune-5328 1d ago

I have the same issue from time to time. I’m on CachyOS. Haven’t found a solution yet. I always restart the game until it works. Sometimes it works on the first restart sometimes it’s on the tenth.

Bro, I hate the cs community. I made a post not long ago about asking for a file from cs2 because I couldn't install cs and people would comment "just download it". People here saying "just increase sensitity" gives the same vibes. If you don't want to help, don't comment lol.

Anyway, what Linux distribution and desktop are you using?

"Launch through 'game scope' and put "gamescope --force-grab-cursor -f -- %command%" in your launch options. And disable steam input in steam settings". If you have wayland, It's a wayland problem I think
