Yup. I know exactly what you mean. I bought Nobody Wants to Die, which is rated platinum on protondb, and it just crashes within 1 second of startup for me. 3h of fucking around with proton versions, launch arguments, even tried lutris, nothing. The only error I could see took me to a stackoverflow thread about vga to dvi adapter issues and the fix was not relevant. My protontricks is apparently also broken which I have no idea why or when it broke.
I got it refunded, it is what it is. I’ll look into fixing my protontricks when I have more time…
Tradition at this point, I suppose.
The entirety of Eastern Europe shrugs emphatically
I have an Nvidia GPU and aside from the occasional lemon of a driver, I’ve had no issues (to be sure, I don’t use Wayland). I play games through Proton just fine. MHW, Elden Ring, Hunt Showdown, BG3, etc. Unfortunately the games he picked are borked or not listed on protondb. Not sure about Minecraft though, I used to play that just fine.
I’ll see if I can enable it in Discover and run updates through that. Thanks for the tip.
Does that have auto updates? It’s kind of annoying to download debs every week.
I’m not super well versed, I’m a Linux casual.
The discord snap is basically unusable for me so that’s the only way I can have discord installed. I’ll probably switch away from kubuntu next time if it inherited this problem.
Remember, do not prepurchase now
You’ll take my split keyboard and dark mode from my cold dead carpal tunnel hands
Same. I have medium-large hands and I’m a big g600 simp
Edit: if you’re thinking about something wireless, the mxmaster mice are super comfy.
I want it to be durable and at a budget of 20-35€
Nevermind. Good luck!
ITT: People getting mad for saying a 3 generations, 4 year old low end gpu is the issue
I mean, then it’s not really linux, is it?
As for the card, I bought it before it became apparent how overpriced it was, and it was a major upgrade from my second hand 970 anyway. And I didn’t splurge, I saved and bought what I thought made sense for me, when I could’ve ‘splurged’ on a 3080.
Can’t speak about the rest but
C2077 ran like a slog at best, if it even started, so I never bothered again.
Works fine on my 3070. Actually worked on release too. I’m on medium-high graphics 60fps in 4k.
When you switch proton versions, it might be a good idea to delete the prefix directory. I find that helps.
What games are you trying? Off the top of my head, I’ve played monster hunter world, hunt showdown, cyberpunk 2077, baldur’s gate 3, norman reedus and the funky fetus, elden ring, deep rock galactic, doom (the new ones), apex, the dark souls games, warframe, and a few more over the years.
The message seems to give you at least what it thinks the solution to the problem is:
apt install nvidia-driver-libs:i386
Nice, wish I had seen this before I sent them a message, lmao. It’s good news that they’re looking into it though.
Kubuntu 23.10
I’d been using linux for work for a couple years and it was going fine. I had a pretty crappy laptop at home with limited storage and I was constantly wrestling with Windows storing update stuff, installing adware during updates, etc.
I’d heard of proton and about how well it was going with it, so I had an idea linux gaming was possible.
Eventually something happened during a windows update that required I reinstall the OS and I just pulled out the flash drive I used to install linux on my work machine and tried it out. Eventually I did have to dual boot (on a bigger drive) for some games, but nowadays I’m all linux everywhere.
