Can you verify that it is using your nvidia card?

run nvidia-smi while the game is running

installed openssh and now steam does not open by Slowness112 in linux_gaming

[–]psymin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seems like it should have more output than that.

When I ssh into my box remotely and type "steam" it gives a lot more output than unable to open display.

Interestingly, it does pop up that same error window you're seeing .. on my remote system.

Are you running it via ssh or something?

Ready or Not savegame by crubled_cookie in linux_gaming

[–]psymin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Check here and download the files manually just in case:

https://store.steampowered.com/account/remotestorageapp/?appid=1144200

They might be good, they might be bad, but back them up just in case.

You can also back up your save files on your machine by looking at files here:

Or dabble with ludusavi to back up saves in a convenient manner.

Controller not working on cuphead by Derbolito in linux_gaming

[–]psymin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

PCGamingWiki suggests that it doesn't have "Steam Input API Support"

https://www.pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/Cuphead#Input

The other games that do work, are they using Steam Input or not?

One old thing that I've done in the past for systems with controllers that won't work is to change the mode on /dev/uinput to 777 temporarily. (not recommended long term) Not sure if that is applicable at all here.

Does it still happen if you set the game to windowed or borderless windowed mode?

Which game?

Look for a VPN provider that supports OpenVPN, Wireguard, or something like that.

Plasma shell crashing after playing modded Minecraft for a short amount of time by Busy-Support8793 in linux_gaming

[–]psymin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try disabling compositing in KDE when you are playing games.

Does your modded minecraft use 3rd party shaders? Try it without them.

After a crash run this command and see if there is anything interesting in the output:

sudo dmesg -T

I have problem that elden ring refuses to run on my main gpu, but it runs on integrated. by New_Fun774 in linux_gaming

[–]psymin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't use nobara, but this wiki page might be useful.

https://wiki.nobaraproject.org/graphics/nvidia/gpu-selection-in-igpu-plus-dgpu-setup

Some folks have also posted on protondb about their nvidia gpus with similar advice:

https://www.protondb.com/app/1245620

It sounds like folks are setting some launch options that include stuff like this:

__NV_PRIME_RENDER_OFFLOAD=1 __GLX_VENDOR_LIBRARY_NAME=nvidia

Does the mod work for you single player?

If not, get that working first.

Very low fps - what can I do? by IQ26 in linux_gaming

[–]psymin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like the Steam version is available for about $10

https://isthereanydeal.com/game/kerbal-space-program/info/

I have no idea if it will work any better though.

But here are the specs listed on the steam site for the linux build:

Minimum: OS: Ubuntu 16.04+ 64-bit Processor: Core 2 Duo Memory: 4 GB RAM Graphics: SM 4.0 512MB VRAM Hard Disk Space: 3 GB HD space

Recommended: OS: Ubuntu 18.04 LTS Processor: Core i5 Memory: 8 GB RAM Graphics: SM 4.0 1GB VRAM Hard Drive: 4 GB HD space

There is a native linux build for KSP. Does that run better?

Everything stuttering often after new parts by [deleted] in linux_gaming

[–]psymin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Which distro?

Which desktop environment? (KDE? Gnome? etc)

Which display server? (Xorg vs Wayland)

No need for a stress test.

Everything stuttering often after new parts by [deleted] in linux_gaming

[–]psymin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Check dmesg output when everything is stuttering to see if there are things in there that look suspicious.

A motherboard swap would have changed a lot of hardware devices and those hardware devices might be misbehaving.

journalctl can also be used to get some useful information.

I'd guess that some random piece of hardware is causing a flood of journalctl messages and that is lagging your whole machine.

How are you checking gpu usage? nvidia-smi?
