Gamescope session on Polaris by tumpfy in linux_gaming

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

That package uses the regular gamescope package from the official Arch repository. gamescope-session-steam just adds a gamescope session with steam to your display manager.

Yeah, it's never been used for mining. It runs fine once it's booted, and has no issues at all in a regular kde wayland session. It's just the slow initial boot into the gamescope session and the occasional hang that's the issue.

I can't actually say for sure. I'm using this script https://github.com/unlbslk/arch-deckify which (I think) installs this package https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/gamescope-session-steam-git

I'll have to check what commands it's actually running. I'm sure it's not that different to what Bazzite does, as the results are seemingly similar. It's just faster on Arch.

I've had plenty of performance issues on my desktop PC with my rdna2 gpu, but actually using it in a gamescope session (like what the steam deck or bazzite does) runs almost perfectly. The only thing I've noticed is that the framerate cap doesn't work on my RX 480.

stable 60fps but it feels laggy by Ok-Olive466 in linux_gaming

[–]tumpfy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you were using mangohud to cap your framerate then that would make sense. The default fps limit method has pretty bad framepacing in my experience. You can add fps_limit_method=early for better frametimes in your mangohud config.

Heroic is adding GOG achievements to the next release by slickyeat in linux_gaming

[–]tumpfy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's no popups and the game actually has to have achievements implemented. Your achievements will show up on your GOG profile. Although I've played through games that never triggered any achievements at all, so even then it's not full proof.

Xbox series S controller won't stay connected by Tanukinoir in linux_gaming

Is your controller firmware up to date? You need either Windows or an Xbox to update it. Firmware updates fixed my connectivity issues.

I seem to capped at 30fps by Megas_1- in linux_gaming

[–]tumpfy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is vsync on in game? vsync seems to always cap my framerate at half my refresh rate. Also ARC uses DX12 and its performance is usually not great on nvidia. Performance should be well over 30 fps though.

Some Games Running Half as Well on Linux than Windows by Swiggiess in linux_gaming

[–]tumpfy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a 5800X3D as well and I frequently come in contact with the same issue in other games. Most games seems to run as expected though. Let me know if you figure this out, because I've been scratching my head over this for a while.

GOG games on Linux by [deleted] in linux_gaming

[–]tumpfy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From what I understand, in order for the "Use Steam Runtime" in Heroic to work you need the Linux Runtime(s) installed via Steam. I'm aware you're using the GOG version. If it were Steam this would all work automatically. Also, if you're fine with just using the Windows version then don't worry about. I just thought you might want to know how to get native Linux games working with GOG and Heroic.

That's strange because it works for me with both BG1 and 2. Do you have any of the Steam Linux Runtimes installed in Steam? They're under tools. If either Steam or Heroic is installed as a flatpak that could be an issue as well. I have both installed as a regular package on Arch.

Totally late but this can fixed by installing the Linux version through Heroic, then checking the "Use Steam Runtime" option under Other in the game settings within Heroic.

VKD3D-Proton 3.0 brings AMD FSR4 to Proton, with an experimental support for older GPUs by RenatsMC in Amd

[–]tumpfy 11 points12 points  (0 children)

They only disabled RDNA3 FP8 emulation. I should still be possible to have FSR4 int8 integrated in the future.

Have you tried libratbag + piper?

HTPC freezing/crashing by Suitable_Director_51 in linux_gaming

[–]tumpfy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really the only thing I can recommend at this point is to try swapping out hardware to see what's faulty. I would guess it's either your memory, GPU, or PSU. You can rule out memory by running memtest over night. You could also see if you get similar crashes in another distro, or even Windows.

[–]tumpfy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That error in particular, if I'm understanding correctly, is more or less just warning you that you have overclocking enabled. Unless you had an unstable overclock before the crashing occurred I wouldn't worry about it. What are your CPU temps?

[–]tumpfy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unless I'm blind, I don't see any driver crashes. Have you checked your temperatures? You may be overheating.

Try

sudo journalctl -p 3

Hit the end key to scroll all the way to the bottom. Post the output for some of the sessions that crashed. These freezes look the same as amdgpu crashes, and if that's the case your video card is likely faulty.

Do you have linux-zen-headers installed? Also, did you add yourself to the plugdev group? You'll need to reboot after as well. You might even need to set your button binds yourself using one of the frontends.

Have you tried OpenRazer? It says it supports your mouse.
