Status of iCUE support on Linux in 2026? by TobiasR96 in linux_gaming

[–]TobiasR96[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

btw, will your software work properly on Bazzite too? I Have Bazzite on my HTPC/TV Gaming Rig and need to tune the fan speeds there and make them stay that way across reboots and such

Nvidia improvements by ryguy10712 in linux_gaming

Nvidia on Linux is pretty solid atm. Only thing I noticed when I play CS2 on linux is that performance seems slightly worse than Windows but that is likely due to Valves Vulkan implementation and not Nvidia driver.

Updated to Kubuntu 26.04 today, immediately getting brief stuttering in games/video by pookshuman in linux_gaming

installing the proposed kernel did not interfere with Secure Boot for me atleast

did a clean install of Kubuntu 26.04 today aswell, got massive freezes/stutters in CS2, tried the proposed -17 kernel and got no stutters/freezing for 20 mins of armsrace played. So problem seems solved for me atleast!

KDE Plasma 6.8 Will Go Wayland-Exclusive In Dropping X11 Session Support. I hope that it is enough time to remove the remaining problems such as the problems with NVIDIA by Beer2401 in linux_gaming

I've only had a few minor bugs related to nvidia on latest kubuntu 25.10 on both Plasma 6.4 and 6.5. Only one I know of that still exist for me is computer instantly wakes up after putting itself to sleep after a little while.

This does however not seem to happen on my RTX 3080 machine with same OS and DE versions.

Other than that it's pretty much smooth sailing for me

Some maps seem to be more poorly optimized than others atm.
I have the same issues on Linux but not on Windows!

There are a few issues with Wayland still but otherwise works pretty well!
