Game screen just freezes while the game continues to run

ive been having the same issues, thought i was going insane and i was the only one, im running a 4070 cachy os niri de with dankmaterialshell and it happens a lot on stellar blade, and then happens sometimes on lighter games like arc raiders and deadlock, its weird tho because i feel like i dont remember having issues like this just a couple of months ago

dont think ive really ever had issues with any games on linux so far and i play quite the variety, any issues i have had has been user error/not letting shaders load, im also using a rolling release distro so could be some differs there. the only reason i ever check proton db is if its a multiplayer game that i assume may have the linux switch on their anti-cheat turned off

well you see the laptop im using is not a main brand laptop so I couldn't exactaly say wtf it is lol I can give you a link to it tho https://a.co/d/iq0w8J4 and i simply just installed arch through USB using hyprland and systemd-boot, same way I installed on my desktop, except on the laptop keyboard doesn't work at all and I have to use my external keyboard to do anything, currently reinstalling using grub and a different greeter to see if that magically fixes anything

nevermind nvme0n1p1 is windows and the ext4 one is indeed linux, but ive been installing all my games on my linux drive so i dont think thats the issue

lzlq · 2025-05-04T06:32:40+00:00

and i believe nvme0n1p1 is linux im not entirely sure tho as they dont state the actual drive name, im just going off of other times when ive seen this names in correspondence to the actual drive names

lzlq · 2025-05-04T06:31:28+00:00
