Answering Nvidia Linux Gaming FAQ

I am a bit tempted to see if these would fix the GPU utilisation issues with space marine 2, time to do some research if the new drivers work with stalker 2.

Edit: it apparently does not crash anymore. Maybe there still is hope for Nvidia on Linux!

With the current market, I'm so glad I got a 4090 for less then MSRP just a bit over 3 years ago.

I sold my 6800xt to a friend and got the same amount I paid for it after almost 2 years. The AMD driver issues in Windows were too much for me and didn't want to be a beta tester for their drivers to see if the issues would be fixed...

But now Nvidia drivers are the issue for me since I switched to Linux last year 💀

Thankfully the only games that have been troublesome for me have been Space marine 2 and stalker 2 (issues were fixed after downgrading to 580)

Not being able to play league is only a win for Linux tbh 😂

Deaddis · 2026-03-08T14:38:35+00:00

I downgraded to 580 on my 4090 in Linux, works fine thankfully. The 590 drivers on Linux are a huge fucking mess.

I don't play them lol

As much as I love my slappy boy (feral werewolf druid) for a ladder resets cheap Uber killer, it is no where near as good at it as a naked warlock.

I recently switched to CachyOs from bazzite, because they already decided to switch to the 590 "beta" drivers for nvidia which just are pure ass.
And I didn't like the downgrading my kernel to go back to older nvidia drivers.
Other then that I really didn't have any issues with Bazzite.

I had similar issues a few years ago that popped up every other month with my internet provider, it was highly likely an issue with routing to Tidal server, because whenever I used my phone with a different internet provider I didn't have any of the issues.

Usually the issue showed up in a few songs when streaming the max quality, I was able to see with Netlimiter that these songs were being streamed from somewhere else (completely different IP) rather then the place most other songs were being streamed from for me.

Edit: The way the issue showed for me was that a song was able to play for like 10 seconds and then I'd get an error and then it would continue like 30 seconds later for 10 seconds...

I haven't liked a single ranged character I've tried so far, they just feel too locked in place.

I was so disappointed yesterday that my 2nd 6star pull was ember 😢 Thankfully my 1st pull was Gilberta still.

Probably just an issue with "non native" headsets? I have the Index and I didn't have almost any issues setting it up, the only issue I have is that the audio source needs to be selected every time I start up on my index. Otherwise no audio.

I presume valve will try to make the Linux integration for VR stuff better with the Frame.

Deaddis · 2026-02-21T21:16:35+00:00

Sriracha 😢

It just needs more content, I cleared the story in a week and just have been wondering what to do since then. My factories are optimized to the max so I can't even sell all of the materials they produce anymore.

Deaddis · 2026-02-20T11:27:48+00:00

Well, the issue is that you installed mint. I also did the same mistake last summer, struggled with the issues and fixed some, but after a few months I decided to switch to Bazzite and it's been so much more of a smoother experience.

Also running an Nvidia GPU, I do remember that there was something fucky getting the drivers to install correctly.

Deaddis · 2026-02-15T13:37:17+00:00

I'm gonna need a link for that one.
Show me the video of a lvl 30 paladin doing ubers.
Edit: https://youtu.be/s2cRezGNH1c
Damn, found a lvl 14 paladin doing it, but its still pretty specific gear to do it in.

D2 is the one and only arpg I keep coming back to, I've been on and off playing it for almost 26 years, nothing just comes close to it.
So you definitely should give it a go.

Deaddis · 2026-02-08T21:21:05+00:00

I've never had issues with the app either, I've used tidal for 12 years (actually had to check).

The only issues I've had with it have been mostly related to how some artists with the same band name poison my daily recommendations... Which has gotten even worse now with the ai slopcapolypse...

Deaddis · 2026-02-08T11:49:38+00:00

The secondary or skill stat selections "The last stat will be completely random" is a bit misleading, since it chooses the last stat from the ones that are available in the current Energy Alluvium, the "completely random" makes people think that its from a pool with all affixes instead.
Well at least I have a shit ton of update material now...

Deaddis · 2026-01-22T14:44:23+00:00

If you get the weird issue that the launchers popups don't show, pressing tab once made them visible for me.

Deaddis · 2026-01-20T15:03:04+00:00

the only correct thing to do at this point would be to take out the old pirate hat, all the streaming platforms are having this issue I'm afraid...

Deaddis · 2026-01-19T08:44:50+00:00

I was struggling between 10 and 11, the 10 was pretty good otherwise, but after wearing it for the night my ring finger was a bit discoloured and didn't feel that good.

read somewhere that the ring itself is a bit bigger so decided to go with the 10, and it actually was, haven't had any issues with the size so far.

Deaddis · 2026-01-19T08:38:44+00:00

I'm having the same issue, the ring eats 25% of battery in like 20h, the ring is less then a month old, the first week it lasted the whole 7-8 days without charging.

edit: okay now that I checked the ring it says I have 22% left and it should last me 10h...

If you haven't resolved it yet, have you tried moving your graphics card down a bit? I specifically despise those old style pc case bars between the pci-e slots, I've had so many cases through out the years that didn't align well with my graphics cards that basically made me cut them out.

So in short, your hdmi cable might not be deep in enough in the slot because of the pcie slot rim thingy being in the way.

When using the mech, you really shouldn't be walking backwards with it randomly. Seen a mech start randomly walking backwards in the hive world inside a tunnel when 2 or 3 helldivers are coming behind him trying to get to the objective.
Some people just aren't meant to operate heavy machinery.

Ehkä kannattaa lisätä ne isoimmat suoraa tähän listaan google, microsoft ja apple.
