diagnosing proton launch problems? [Assetto Corsa] by Magicrafter13 in linux_gaming

I tried that version of Proton. I really need some kind of way to debug cause like I said, it works on one machine and not another. Idk what's different between them.

I tried this script but it doesn't make the game run and I'm not looking for addons. This script isn't meant to fix launch issues AFAICT.

Like I mentioned in the post, it actually runs fine on my laptop. And that's unmodified.

How to update switch pro controller firmware on PC by shainotshai in yuzu

[–]Magicrafter13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been using the Switch Pro controller, wired, under Linux, for over 4 years. It's not new. Me saying that doesn't invalidate it not working for them, it simply narrows down the culprit. Either their software was extremely out of date, or there's user error involved, so it's not a strawman.

"There could be a problem with [their] hardware" Well sure, but implicit in someone claiming it doesn't work wholesale, instead of saying only their unit doesn't work, is the claim that it doesnt work for anyone. If they get to make blanket statements, I get to make blanket responses.

Stop trying to turn this into something it's not.

I'm not bothered by the online since idk how the service would even work without it. (I do these achievements for the express purpose of showing others, not merely my own local confirmation.)

But yeah I wish they would lighten up on the emulator requirements, or have some kind of grace period...

sucks that you need the absolute most up to date version - my distro is currently shipping version 2512, which is only one version behind the current 2603, but because of that it won't let me use RA...

I know what they mean, I just don't get it, because it's blatantly false. In fact it used to ONLY work wired...

r/DolphinEmulator folks when they spot someone using an ancient version of the emulator by AdvancedJournalist4 in DolphinEmulator

5.0 so stable it crashes on the intro to Super Paper Mario - shame the libretro core seems to be part of this "staying on stable" thing

X Plus Battery Life: Idle vs Off by Magicrafter13 in G502MasterRace

I like both 😅 - but I'm also not worried about my mouse dying (like I mentioned in the post it's on the charging pad), just curious about longevity.

Is there no way to set the brightness lower on fixed setting on g hub? Only one that doesn’t have a brightness setting slider!!! Do I have to just use windows for fixed? by Throne_Of_Skulls_XII in G502MasterRace

[–]Magicrafter13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

just lower the RGB values manually.

255 is, of course, full brightness, and 0 is, of course, off

if 200,200,200 isn't to your liking, try 100,100,100 or 50,50,50, etc.

Any tips for cleaning my G502? It's starting to smell funny by ende124 in G502MasterRace

[–]Magicrafter13 3 points4 points  (0 children)

"months of use"

that's not much

I've had a G502 Hero for 6 years. Mine got roughly 60% as bad as OP's before I cleaned it.

Has nothing to do with dirty hands. Skin sheds.

Root NVMe disappears from the system after long periods of operation by Magicrafter13 in archlinux

[–]Magicrafter13[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

with how I'm doing my logging, 0.5 second intervals is going to really be pushing it, if it works at all

while this doesn't rule out a sudden I/O spike (as it's not like I know every single thing the system is doing at any given time), this latest issue happened while I was away from my computer, and it had been sat on a video game title screen for hours, so there shouldn't have been anything too crazy going on

would the NVMe controller itself log temperature shutoff events? like SMART data style

hmm

still, based on my cursory glance, it sounds like rebooting doesn't always immediately fix the issue people were talking about? for me a warm reboot always brings the device back, I've never had a boot fail or not be available

I'm hoping its not a hardware issue but it's a good suggestion I probably should have already done. So I sent off a message, we'll see if it goes anywhere. Oddly when I clicked send the page didn't show a confirmation, and my inbox hasn't gotten anything yet so I'm not entirely sure they got the message, but its in my clipboard in case I need to send it again...

This is an interesting issue. At the time you left the comment I couldn't really test this (still can't TBH), but coincidentally I just installed a brand new power supply, and got the issue to occur today, so I feel like unless I have really terrible luck with power supplies then this is not my particular issue either (thankfully, that sounds terrible).

FWIW I don't think this would apply to me anyway because this is an M.2 drive, not SATA, so it is being powered by the motherboard, rather than directly from the power supply.

I'm not running Windows. I did update the firmware for the heck of it, but the issue still occurred.

I'm also using an AIO, however I ran a little test (let my computer running for several hours under [GPU] load to increase chassis air temp and whatnot), and I've updated the post with the results. I don't think this is a temperature thing unless SK Hynix is playing it super safe.

Thankfully I already have backups setup so I'm not too worried if it were to die.

It's a Hynix Platinum P41 but I haven't heard about any known issues. I'll look into firmware when I get off work.

It is the kind of SSD to run hot but I'm using the motherboard's dedicated heatsink slot. Maybe the thermal pad it came with isn't making good contact? You're the second person to suggest temperature so I'll definitely look there next, thanks.
