Tell Gabe to drop all of the support for Windows homosexual.
its more likely that Microsoft is gonna do that
Winget package manager has repos outside of Micorosft Store moron. Gabe must take the initiative.
that doesnt mean Microsoft isnt more likely to shut down Steam than Valve would be to shut down Steam on Windows
Good luck with SteamOS after he dies because he doesn't do shit when he is given a chance then dumbfrick moron.
>Why does Ganker hate it?
Because GNU/males are obnoxious homosexuals.
One has an international team of paid shills
The other has a ragtag group of hobbyist shills
Linux can't compare to poojeet shitposting and the average tech illiterate hears nothing but fud over how hard linux is to use and assimilates windows in some small part into their personality simply because they use it so they get offended too.

good thing troonix sandboxes them
it does no such thing and no one on Ganker is smart enough to write their own selinux policy
Many people see literally nothing wrong about using windows, so when you present another option, they need extra convincing.
For me the easiest dealbreaker with windows was the forced updates that require a total system restart. I could never go back to that; it's a luxury to actually have control over my pc and the software installed on it.
or you can just turn updates off
>just tinker 10h after install so windows isnt completely shit.
Frick off, this a Windows board. Quit pretending Linux users play games.
I'm trying to run vampire The Masquerade Night Roads on lutris but it only gives me a blank screen. On steam it works with these launch options: PROTON_USE_WINED3D=1 PROTON_NO_D3D11=1 %command%
what is the lutris equivalent of this?
doesnt lutris have a runner option to disable DXVK? Try that
that alone didn't solve it
I'll try that, thanks
i don't use lutris but it should be:

it worked

Meanwhile, on windows you have to literally decompile and reprogram the game to get it to run.
Disable vk3d3 enable dxkv, if that doesnt work use a lower version of dxkv and change the os to windows seven (windows config in the button next to start)
I explained it better but this fricking shit erase my post blame Ganker.
Dxkv equals dx9-11 in windows
Kv3d3 equals directx12 use windows 10+
>lutris
Don't use this piece of shit software. Use Bottles, it's much more moron proof.
lutris is better for fiddling with shit
also i don't want 10 wine prefixes

What is the difference and why recommend one over the other? I'm fairly new to Linux.
Only time I think Bottles is useful is for playing RPGM shit.
lutris and bottles are for people that don't go through steam
steam handles all of that for regular users
bottles is basically the troony solution made to grift everything
Bottles suck ass because that's flatpack only. Lutris literally just works. But new ProtonGE will have a Steam-like runtime that will just work without any of those. Also post more Stephanie
Linux's controversial status, especially in gaming communities like Ganker, stems from various factors:
Performance Claims: The assertion that games run faster on Linux can be contentious. While some games might perform better on Linux due to efficient resource use or Linux-specific optimizations, this isn't universally true. Many games are optimized for Windows, resulting in better performance on that platform.
Game Compatibility: Windows historically dominates PC gaming, offering a vast library of games. Linux has struggled with game compatibility, though this has improved with tools like Proton. Still, not all games run smoothly on Linux.
Customization and Complexity: Linux offers extensive customization, appealing to tech enthusiasts. However, for average users, this customization comes with a steep learning curve, deterring some gamers.
Community Perception: The Linux community is often viewed as more technical, which can seem elitist to casual users. The smaller user base means less communal support for gaming issues.
Subjective Experiences: Views on Linux for gaming vary widely based on personal experiences. What works for one user may not work for another, leading to diverse and often strong opinions.
Online Echo Chambers: Forums like Ganker can have vocal, opinionated members, creating echo chambers. These communities may harbor attitudes that don't necessarily reflect the broader opinion.
Linux's role in gaming is multifaceted, impacted by technical, social, and personal aspects. Despite advancements in Linux gaming, these factors contribute to its controversial standing in certain circles.
Thanks gpt poster.
>While some games might perform better on Linux due to efficient resource use
Anon they run better because directx became extremely shitty. DXVK is recommended for some games even on Windows. VKD3D makes dx12 games run better because of the shaders.
>Game Compatibility
Sometimes games (Hunie Pop) refuse to launch on Windows at all without any message. But overall I agree, Linux isn't fully compatible yet
>Customization steep learning
You select skin and hit install.
They said there will be desktop Steam OS but no news since then
Fair points, Anon. DirectX issues and the rise of DXVK and VKD3D do shake things up. They're like the underdogs showing DirectX isn't always king. And yeah, some Windows games do throw a fit for no reason – gotta love those mystery crashes. Linux does have its compatibility hiccups, but it's getting there, slowly but surely. As for customization, true, it can be as simple as picking a skin, but diving deeper into Linux's guts? That's where the real 'fun' begins for the tech-savvy. It's not everyone's cup of tea, but for those who dig it, it's like a playground.
I actually fricking laughed at how blatant GPT this was. Good one anon.

>Games run faster on Linux than on Windows
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
>sunk cost fallacy
>inferior free os
never thought i'll ever see this happening
It looks like you're commenting on the debate around gaming performance on Linux versus Windows, with a hint of skepticism about the claim that games run faster on Linux. This topic often brings out a range of opinions, and it's clear you have a specific stance on it. Let's break down some of the points:
Performance Debate: The claim that games run faster on Linux can be valid in certain scenarios, especially where specific optimizations are made for Linux. However, it's not a universal truth, as many games are primarily developed for and optimized on Windows.
Sunk Cost Fallacy: This term refers to the idea that people continue a behavior or endeavor as a result of previously invested resources (time, money, effort). In the context of operating systems and gaming, it could imply that users might stick with what they're familiar with (like Windows) even if alternatives (like Linux) might offer benefits.
Perception of Linux as an Inferior OS: This is a subjective view. Linux is often praised for its security, stability, and flexibility, particularly in server environments and among tech enthusiasts. However, in the gaming world, Windows still holds a dominant position due to its wider range of supported games and often better out-of-the-box compatibility.
Surprise at the Shift in Gaming Landscape: Your comment suggests surprise at the changing perceptions and realities of gaming on different operating systems. The gaming landscape is indeed evolving, with more developers considering Linux-friendly versions and technologies like Proton helping to bridge the compatibility gap.
Your reaction is a reflection of the diverse opinions that exist on this topic. It's a fascinating debate that continues to evolve with advancements in technology and shifts in the gaming industry.

yes but this is the board that unironically defends him with such compelling arguments as "the warning should have been more colorful" and "nobody would read all that"
the package manager should be smarter though, and the error messages should be clearer in terms of pointing the user in the correct direction to actually solving whatever the problem is instead of "WARNING: WE'RE ABOUT TO FRICK EVERYTHING UP ...PROCEED?"
There is no safeguard that will stop a determined moron.
True, but it would be beneficial to everyone for things to produce smarter error messages.
Not if people don't read them. Windows conditioned the sysadmin larpers to think UAC is a joke.
I read them. Competent users read them. Logs exist for a reason. You wouldn't write a compiler that spites out shitty, nondescript error messages (well, you might, but it would be a shitty compiler). I don't want to play guessing games with why something failed. I want to know what failed with as much relevant information as possible so I can fix the problem. The package manager in this case has enough information to tell you what went wrong.
Yes.
Having better error messages is bad for business. If you want it fixed, call a technician.
You and these mythical competent users would probably approach the "Yes, do as I say!" prompt differently. The situation Linus showed was neither.
No
>It's Linus' fault that doing something as mundane as installing fricking Steam leads to a 'Yes, do as I say!' command prompt coming up
Doesn't matter that he didn't read it, what matters is that it popped up in the first place you sanctimonious mongoloids
Pop os maintainers fricked up and then Linus jumped over every barrier to shoot himself in the foot and even then he could have easily gotten his system back
And how would a normalgay like Linus know that you can reinstall the DE? He would just reinstall fresh.
Kys.
A normalgay wouldn't have jumped over all those barriers before asking for help or applying some critical thinking, there's a reason no one else reported having that issue
holy cope

He had no trouble googling how to install Steam before copying and pasting off stackoverflow.
what a dogshit OS
>Linus
>Literal creator of Linux
>Can't run Linux properly
>why is linux so controversial
Because chuds claim it just works and when a normalgay tries it, it doesn't. Then the chud turns around and says "why would you want to do/play/use that" and tiptoes around everything and calls them incompetent.
Because linux takes a small amount of tech know-how to work with and that is too much for most people.
because it WAS bad, and that's the reputation Linux formed. maybe we need a gaming-focused Distro made by Razer or some shit to finally get people on the bandwagon. Razer Linux would still be better than Windows since Windows 7.
Valve made one based on Arch

I have been using linux for 2 years
palworld broke me, it just won't work
I will probably return to linux once it becomes boring, but I give up trying to make this game work pirated. worst part is I could see people that got it running in protondb, it's simply that piracy is almost impossible through proton
Huh Palworld works without any problem (bledding edge Proton experimental). But I personally got bored of it after like 10hrs.
I didn't really mention it until the end, it's specifically piracy
I can't take the idea of buying a game just because of my OS
>piracy is almost impossible
How strange.
I play games that I downloaded from GOG and they work despite being literally byte-for-byte identical to pirated copies (unless pirates are unironically downloading malware-infected games). How does Linux magically know that I paid for those games?
i think its specific to newer games that have drm. I tried pirating persona 4 golden back around when it came out on steam and couldn't get it to work for the life of me (even tried adding the dependencies to the prefix folder to no avail). Then i bit the bullet and bought it on sale and had 0 issues.
because the last like 30 years of software was made on windows
if linux had 1 1 compatability id use it
but hardware backdoors are a thing so linux doesnt matter
only reason to grab it is if windows gets unusale
win 10 is ok for gaming i had a 1070 pc with locked down win 10 1776
and it was like console smooth frame times
>if linux had 1 1 compatability id use it
Modern "Windows" doesn't even have 1:1 compatibility with the entire library of legacy win32 software.
There are projects tracking compatibility and actively working on support for gaming on Linux.
There are no similar efforts for Windows, because there is really nothing that can be done.

>best option is buy GTX 1080 ti
People who own Nvidia 10 series hardware think Linux is a meme, but this is because their hardware doesn't fully support Vulkan and has to emulate some of its features.
If you want to get the real experience of Linux gaming, you really want an AMD GPU that is GCN or newer.

A few cherrypicked games, yeah.
Otherwise, no.
"Games" are the perfect bait for Malware.
Windows users get burnt by Linux users lies and misleading so they either never use it again or trash talk it and you end up with bait threads on Ganker
People are justified in not wanting to use Linux for gaming. If they like Windows, then there's no problem to fix by installing an operating system.
However, each and every person who is upset about Linux gaming, including everyone who replies to this thread in anger as well as anyone who replies to this post with anything other than the word "based", is mentally ill and needs to be medicated and/or locked up. I mean this sincerely. Having a tantrum over others playing video games the wrong way is grounds for being put in a straight jacket. It goes both ways, by the way. To the extent that you're seething about them using Windows, you also need to be sedated and/or imprisoned for the good of society.
This, but why an enema?
Not every post that's longer than 2 sentences is chatgpt
>but why an enema?
the real question is whether it comes before or after the straight jacket
True that. Just because someone's dropping more than a couple of lines doesn't mean they're a bot. Some people just like to chat, ya know? Not everything's a conspiracy, folks. Maybe they've got more to say, or maybe they just like typing. Let's not jump to the 'bot' conclusion every time someone goes beyond a quick meme or a one-liner
Wayland is still dogshit after 16 years
You can't possibly imagine the amount of shills Microsoft hires. Even though only a tiny fraction of PCs run a Linux OS, it's still seen as an existential threat to the company. It's only been used by a small group of people for a long time but between Linux gaming becoming good practically overnight along with the increasing shittiness of windows (12 especially with the 16gb minimum RAM requirement), more and more people are switching over. If it hits a critical threshold, if one of the distros gets popular with normies, the results could be catastrophic.
So they shill on every website that's even remotely related to tech talk. Hordes of them, mostly Indians, are on Ganker right now, in this very thread, to pay for their next curry meal.
>You can't possibly imagine the amount of shills Microsoft hires.

>unironically being upset about dorks using a dork OS for dork things, despite not being tangibly affected by it whatsoever
straight jacket and meds
>Even though only a tiny fraction of PCs run a Linux OS,
Using the definition of "PC" Microsoft prefers to use, which essentially excludes every category of personal computing device Microsoft failed to gain a foothold in.
They used to have something of a point when ARM hardware couldn't really provide a 'desktop' experience and was too weak to be anything other than a 'phone', but its a lot more muddled now when there are ARM Linux desktops, and Apple has switched to ARM.
>if one of the distros gets popular with normies, the results could be catastrophic.
3 distros have really gotten popular so far, and none of them have been a fatal blow for Microsoft. But I think Microsoft have consigned themselves to the fact that Linux taking over the home market is inevitable because normal home users don't care what they run. The only real move they have left is to merge Xbox and a legacy-free Windows home platform together and see if it works.
Why does this thread feel like it was made in bad faith to just brew animosity and invite shitposting?
And games aren't universally faster on Linux, overall require more fiddling (some games are click and play, some are not), and a lot of people don't want to bother learning how to use a new system. Linux simply isn't for everyone and done prior are better off sticking to windows.
>Why does Ganker hate it?
I would say most people here don't care one way or another, but there are some schizo(s) coming to most threads and making a lot of noise, then there are people forming an opinion on something they never used by reading other people that might or might not have used it themselves

Oh man, you've nailed the vibe of some threads here. Feels like bait, right? Some people just love to watch the world burn, especially in tech discussions. And about Linux gaming, totally agree. It's not a one-size-fits-all thing. Some games are smooth on Linux, others are a nightmare. It's like Linux is for the tech wizards who love a good challenge, while Windows is for the chill gamers who just wanna play without the hassle. About the hate? Eh, Ganker is a mixed bag.

Always remember that linux has less than 3.5% of users in the world, yet they shit and piss everywhere they go and will let you know they are using it. Literally the bronies of operating systems.
What you don't understand is that the dact you're using Windows affect us directly in a very bad way.
which one would you like first? the straight jacket or the enema?
>remember that linux has less than 3.5% of users in the world
What decade are you living in?
Linux - 44%
NT - 29%
Darwin - 25%
Even looking at "desktop" which deceptively includes ARM Windows but excludes ARM Linux shows Linux at 5.5%, and it is probable that a large number of 'unknown' users are the new version of ChromeOS which makes it easier for normal users to run other Linux software like Steam.
>Joke's on you, we do it for free because Linux sucks that fricking much and you bastards won't stop lying about it.
because /v is tech illiterate. if a software programmer don't know Linux, no one will even look at his resume.
Imagine you are selling a product for decades to millions of people.
Now imagine someone is offering the same product, better and FOR FREE
What do you do?
I shit on the street, wipe my ass off with my hand, grab myself an after-shit ball of rice from the communal bowl, head back into my work, fire up my potato computer and smear feces on my keyboard as I type out furious responses to this thread.
No compatabilty, requires a lot of problem solving. Lots of "distros" instead of one functional variant people add to constantly reinventimg the wheel instead of making it better.
Pos where all virusus come from.
Real software freedom is piracy and knowing how to reverse engineer. If a quarter of linux autism was directed to reverse engineering Windows then Microsoft would have actual cause for concern. But most linux dorks outside of Ganker get into FOSS do it to fight capitalism without breaking the heckin law. Linux gaming encourages being a Steam paypiggie.
piracy works on Linux. Its literally the same as in windows, you just run the installer through wine
>piracy works on Linux
Yeah if it's a GOG game that didn't have any DRM to begin with. Cracks often utilize obscure Windows behavior that Wine/Proton does not fully replicate. There is a reason there are stuff like johncena repacks that had to be specifically designed for Linux.
>run the installer
You don't even know how to Linux well. Use innoextract you fricking moron.
>steam is just popular for the same reason it's popular on windows
But is piracy has popular on Linux as it is on Windows? I would say that it isn't, because of the headache and because Linux culture (outside of places like Ganker) isn't that suited to it.
Goldberg works with the majority of steam games and it works just fine on Linux. Most cracks work on Linux, only exception I know is codex and they obfuscate their shit
i was thinking about Steam Deck for pirac y but then i remembered that it has auto updates and valve are turbo israelites
i just want to be free from globalhomosexual even if i need to use a PS2 and old windows forever
there is nothing stopping you from pirating on Steam Deck though?
yeah but its a portable 1050
with bad game compatability
bad docking and its like 550
why the frick would i pay that kinda money for that lol
i bought a PS5 for 500 and that was dogshit too
gaming is dead the only hope is old consoles preferably hacked
and pcs stripped of ms bs
linux is not there yet imo
yeah well just install regular linux on a PC. SteamDeck works as a portable gaming PC that works for what its designed to do
or i could use windows 7 or 10 and have all games work lol
hardware is nsa backdoored my family are feds
linux is basically just worse windows
when linux can run windows games without the weird screen tear and lag win 10 has in some games then ill switch
>7 or 10
so its already slipping to 10 because you cant actually stay on 7 forever? 10 is gonna be another 7 in only 2 years
If you are fine with shitty OS that you cant modify and you dont know what is actually doing on your system then go ahead.
You will have AI and OS on cloud soon with 16 GB ram requirement for OS only. You will love it
How long did it take to reverse engineer a N64 game? Windows is a much more complex piece of software with decades of crust you need to deal with as well. And piracy works on Linux, steam is just popular for the same reason it's popular on windows: convenience
>Windows is a much more complex piece of software with decades of crust you need to deal with as well.
The Wine project had its first public release capable of running software using Microsoft legacy win32 API 30 years ago.
Today it is the only still on-going effort to provide compatibility with the vast library of win32 software.
Microsoft's last true new version of their win32 compatibility layer was in Windows 10, with Windows 12 shifting to ARM it appears that effort will be fully abandoned.
The main reason that compatibility layer still works as well as it does, is developers who are still supporting their software have updated it to work around issues with Microsoft's compatibility layer.
With Microsoft abandoning their compatibility effort, it seems like only a matter of time before Wine becomes like DOSbox, simply the de-facto standard for win32 software.
>with Windows 12 shifting to ARM
what does this mean for Linux though. Will Windows just invent their own wine?
https://github.com/otya128/winevdm
Modern Windows already uses its own equivalent of Wine. Like Wine, it still depends on running on hardware that is binary compatible.
Windows ARM systems, if Microsoft intends to support win32 software, will need a hardware emulator in addition to a software compatibility layer.
Apple has done this, but it only really works well for more typical desktop software. The dogshit performance of games compiled for x86 compatible hardware is the whole reason for the decline of MacOS in Steam stats and Linux growing to pass MacOS.
However, Gamers are a relatively small percentage of the population, and even most gamers aren't that invested in Steam, or even particular games. Microsoft may not provide a general purpose emulator+compatibility solution for gaming. They've been content to let DOSbox provide that for older games.
Microsoft seems to be betting that their new "Xbox" game experience for ARM hardware and Gamepass will be enough for most users. They probably aren't wrong.
>Modern Windows already uses its own equivalent of Wine
which is?
NT isn't "Windows" in the way you think it is. It is a VMS clone with a win32 compatibility layer subsystem. Basically the exact same way it had a UNIX, and then Linux subsystem.
Although the new Linux "subsystem" is actually a more complete VM, which may be the way they go for a hosted win32 compatibility solution for business, but that would not work for games for obvious reasons.
And then you remember that software relies on dotnet, and Microsoft's c++, and ie, and windows media foundation, and xinput, and DirectX, and wmp, and cef, and and and and. It's not just win32
Modern Wine provides almost all of that. It really is a very complete compatibility solution.
What's the point in using Linux for gaming when you have an inferior experience 99.9% of the time?
be quiet anon, you are ruining this thread with logic
more like 0,05% of the time
holy cope
You don't have to use Winblows
>99.9%
I haven't even played 1000 games on Linux, and more than 1 of them literally just worked perfectly.
>inb4 "noooo even if it works it's still inferior because Windows would give you 247 fps instead of 246 fps if the game weren't capped at 60 fps anyway and plus I hate penguins"
Don't care
My experience is 99% better than on Windows. The only down side is that games rarely need tinkering.
>Simply more customization

>gamescope makes every game alt-tab able with pixel perfect upscale
>no ads

If I would go back to Windows, I'd pick LTSC (the only actually clean Windows) but the problem with that is some games are Windows version sensitive (like Spider-Man doesn't run under a specific version number) and I still would need a better file manager and Openshell.
im kinda interested in ltsb
i have a pc with 1070 and 2018 era win 10 i had set up perfectly but windows defender got connectedto the net now it wont boot past bios
i wanna keep a pc for as long as possible without updating thats like 1070 level
win 10 is a nightmare and win 11 is worse
84% of statistics are made up
and the point is to make Linux better just by having fun with it
you get to play frickton of games because someone else already figured out how to make them work
and for games that don't work yet, you can check if you can help make them work, so that some other fricker will have even bigger selection of games to play
cycle continues, freedom wins

The point is I want to use Linux and also play games. For you, there probably isn't a point and that's perfectly fine.

Because it sucks it just sucks way less than windows, but people already know windows sucks so they dont think about it.
Linux can be a lot of work, and I don't blame people for sticking to the default. Windows isn't great and it might even perform worse than Linux, but for your average joe, Windows is the best choice. For things to change, we're going to need better support for your average user. I considered turning some people on to Linux, but I realized that I would have to be there to support them through everything. That's not something I want to do. Let Microsoft hold their hands.
It's kinda like having a sports car and knowing how to maintain it, how to tune it, etc., but when someone asks you for a car recommendation, you say "Toyota Camry", just because you don't want the obligation of having to help them through everything.
no one uses linux and people are sick of these minorities being annoying like vegans trying to convert everyone into their failed cult
>more people than Windows 7
Yet you homosexuals cried for months that Steam was dropping support. Hypocrite.

Gamers are moronic, it's that simple.
linux "gamers" are the vegans of gaming.

Because you can't passively learn how to use Linux just by disabling your adblock the same way you could with Mac or Windows and in a race to the bottom for the lowest common denominator, an OS that depends on people wanting to make their working environment better just can't compete.

I just keep using Linux and my time keeps becoming more valuable.
Sometimes requires a little tinkering, if you enjoy getting to know computers more its nice.
But yeah if you're just an underage brainlet its better you stay on windows.
The Winjeet is blissfully unaware his OS will blindly trust any DLL the application asks for.

See this is a legit point. Usually the intelligence services have to use infiltrators to frick up a movement by introducing terminology and confusion. Linux people do it by matter of course. They love making their gay little thing as insular as possible.
It doesn't because it's just a strawman and is conflating multiple arguments.
There's no terminology or confusion being introduced here unless you only do surface level reading of Ganker shitposts, it's just that different software fits different usecases.
Gnome is definitely shit though.
GNOME is shit, anyone who uses it is a moron and any distro that ships it as default DE is user-hostile.
Also on that topic.
I do find it quite funny that the people obsessed with "freedom" always seem to want to put up walled gardens as to what you can and can't do with a computer.

Half of Linux's problem is skitzo activists.
Not one of them sells Linux as a gaming platform, it is sold as a "frick you globalists" OS.
I have heard more about how "IT DONT US YA DATA" more than how DXVK works and the performance charts.
untill you frick off all the skitzo actvists and poltical bullshit out of the OS. It wont be for gamers.
linux has always been more for servers and programmers, it's only recently with the advent of winehq and proton that it's become a decent gaming platform
running benchmarks is complicated because of the diversity in desktop hardware and the amount of different games, engines... ymmv and all.
bottom line is right now most games run on linux, unless explicitly blocked by anti cheat.
>running benchmarks is complicated because of the diversity in desktop hardware
That does not stop people from testing the fps of games and putting it in to a bar chart with known samples from a Windows OS on the same hardware.
Fricking Linus Tech Tips can run a benchmark and show the output. It is not hard.
>Its hard because Linux gets pedantic about what Kernal to use. And it just becomes an argument over the correct way to hammer a nail.
If you just test standard Arch and say that modifying a Kernel will affect test results and that for replication you list the Kernel version.
There, not so hard is it?
Get working on those benchmarks and come back to market next thread.
The biggest problem that hold Linux back is Linux activists complaining about what flavour of their OS should be listed at the top of the search results. Not anything that is a true road block.

some of them (surprisingly including modern demanding titles), under some specific settings, on some specific hardware, but i guess it's true that it happens sometimes. pretty amusing how a wrapper can be more performant than native solution
until it's not, the game slowly eats up the entire vram and dies (works on the same hardware in linux)
Ganker hates anything that requires more than 1 step
Ganker didn't even install Windows themselves so make it 0 steps.
>worse frametimes

besides this Linux is clearly better but I can't use it for gaming.
I think that's very specific to certain compositors and (like many other things that are gaming related) Valve is pretty much working out solutions that can be widely implemented and upstreamed into Linux distros. Their Gamescope compositor is basically the testbed for this and avoidsall those issues, but it will take some time for them to get it mature and off the Deck officially (unofficially its already available) just like SteamOS Holo (ie 3.x versions based on Arch) itself which makes use of it.
I was called a schizo for complaining about that.

Decent guide but I'd recommend not using swap at all and setting this in sysctl.d as well.

Also disabling mitigations is not a real security risk. There's no evidence any of the recently famous attacks (specter etc) have been exploited in the real world, against home or corporate users.
>not using swap at all
might as well in the golden age of zram
I don't think it would play nice with my gentoo box. I already have out of memory compile errors with 32GB.
the memory is compressed
you're getting more for your buck.
zswap+swap > zram
zram is better for machines with very little memory like phones but it's suboptimal on desktops
you especially do not want to combine zram and normal swap because the kernel might not prioritize correctly
original anon that added zram to the convo. the anon I replied to was suggesting no swap at all so zram is the in-between.
zswap can lead to superfluous writes for SSDs and in worst cases compound I/O pressure.
each has their use case.
The whole don't-put-swap-on-SSD thing is a huge fricking meme with no basis in reality.
You want swap, period. But you should pick between zram and zswap+swap. Never use zram AND normal swap.
>no basis in reality.
Writes are writes. I'm not saying you can't have an SSD backing, but it's something to keep in mind for a lot of swapping.
>You want swap, period
Which is why I recommended zram.................
depends on how compressible it is but even if it saves 1% it's like downloading more RAM.
It's become just as cucked by globohomosexual as Windows.

The file itself is .mpg that plays fine in video players. Can't be assed to test if it works in 8.26 or with lavfilters.
Trust me. They are full of shit.
The cutscenes don't work, plain and simple.
There's no video cutscenes in this game, so who's more full of shit?
>trust me bro

Anon I'm not moronic, it just doesn't work.
check the windows version is on win7
also for old games like these don't hesitate to grab an old wine version, new features break old shit and nobody gives a frick
I'm not him but stop doing this "I'm gonna become the hero of stackoverflow with minimal effort!" thing where you just blindly bombard people with random suggestions without knowledge of the situation. An older Wine version almost certainly won't help because older Wine versions were not better at video playback which is mostly hampered by legal issues.
The video doesn't play with Proton 4.11 or later:
>https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/issues/623#issuecomment-944975414
>Firstly, the opening video (before the main menu) does not work. I tried a few Proton versions: with 4.11-13 and 5.0-10, the video is simply skipped; with 5.13-6 and 6.3-7, the audio plays over a black screen.
That comment is old and also mentions some other things that are fixed in Proton 8, but Proton 7 and 8 don't play the intro video out of the box either.
On that note, I almost want to believe it was a bunch of false flaggers lashing out at anon for pointing out a well-documented issue as if he made it up, but I know you guys are just being an embarrassment unintentionally. In the future, try not to fit so well into the Windows shill narrative of Linux users as liars who refuse to believe problems exist.
works for me dumb dog
You're right about Max Payne failing to play a trailer-like intro video on startup, but you're wrong that it's an example of in-game cutscenes not working, because all of the proper in-game cutscenes after the main menu are perfectly functional. (A trailer that plays before the menu is hardly "in-game" and thus, not interrupting gameplay, it doesn't even meet the technical definition of a cutscene, but now I'm being pedantic.)
I recently did a full playthrough of the game on Linux, so you can't lie to me, and literally every cutscene after that one into video works. That should come as no surprise because the remaining cutscenes aren't pre-rendered video, but my point is that this unresolved issue is practically a non-issue. Did you notice that the launch option to skip that intro video is listed under "Essential improvements" on the PCGW page? That video was recognized as a waste of time by Windows users before anything about it failing to play on Linux was added. Everything else about the game works out-of-the-box with Proton 8 as well. The "Reduced color depth (Proton/Linux)" section is outdated; that bug no longer occurs with Proton 8 (at least not on my machine).
Also, phrasing to imply that Proton can't play videos from older games in general is dishonest. Video playback works in plenty of games, old or otherwise. It varies on a case-by-case basis depending on what video format was used, etc., so "Linux can't do cutscenes" is just as wrong as "Linux can't do multiplayer" (see areweanticheatyet.com).

Linux is great if you want an OS where you spend more time trying to do something instead of actually doing it. Or if your time is so worthless you really don't mind spending a few hours trying to get the OS to do a simple task.
I'm sorry for your IQ
Typical linux troon.
>"This shit doesn't work and none of you can explain why."
>"SOUNDS LIKE A YOU PROBLEM!!!"
Cool, now explain why a game stops working overnight with no changes to the OS or any other files. I'll wait. And don't try the "Maybe your HDD is dying" bullshit the linux gays on the steam forums tried. Win10 and S.M.A.R.T. both say the drive is flawless.
Black person, unix is like 30 commands big and takes a week and a half to learn. You post some real vauge shit that sounds like a you problem and blanket the idea windows must just be better based on your moronic experience. I'm sorry you're an idiot that gets frustrated with any resistance and I'll pray for you.
It doesn't.
Rebooting however moves shit around. especially if you have an OS that does background updates.
As for your game, reinstalling doesn't always fix everything simply because most games and steam cache shit. You need to clean that up too.
>Rebooting however moves shit around. especially if you have an OS that does background updates.
Didn't reboot, just turned monitor off. There were no changes, but the game stopped working. Like I said, no one seems to be able to explain this shit.
>installing game through Steam
>REAL VAUGE SHIT
Top kek. I know you can't explain why Linux is broken shit, but you are reaching hard if you are trying to claim installing a Steam game through Steam is some obscure edge-case use of the OS. Steam compatibility is literally what you Linux troons brag about when saying Linux gaming is good these days. So which one is it homosexual, a feature you all can't wait to talk about, or some obscure edge-case literally NO ONE uses?
Because it's not a thing, computers don't act randomly. Something changed.
Are you using a NTFS drive? Given that you're going around testing it on windows that's likely the problem.
No, I originally formatted the drive to EXT4 for Linux to use. I've used Red Hat back in 2000, and Knoppix in 2010, I know full well Linux has never figured out how to use even FAT32 without breaking shit.

Why are you using gnome?
The only reason I haven't fully switched to Linux on my main PC for gaming is because of the lack of support for custom mouse acceleration curves.
The instant someone makes a GUI version I can easily edit I will fully switch over until then my only option is to stay on windows.
Why would you want any sort of mouse acceleration while gaming?
sounds like a moved goalpost made out of sour grapes
making a GUI frontend for changing some files should be easy
I'm sure thst there are already some projects that do something like this
anon just needs to hear about them
>making a GUI frontend for changing some files should be easy
It is, but the problem with things like this is that the people who could make such a GUI frontend wouldn't need it, and open source software is all about working on stuff that you yourself use.
>I'm sure that there are already some projects that do something like this
There are projects but to be honest but none of them have a GUI and alot of them are have to do with kernel edits and i'm to fricking stupid to do it myself.
I use Linux on my work PC and Laptop i'm just pointing out that it is a deal breaker for me when it comes to gaming.
Most people always ask me the same question when I mention I play with acceleration.
I play on a super low sensitivity that accelerates to almost 4x when swiping fast its very good for tracking in shooters while also being able to flick to targets if you get used to it and have a very predictable mouse acceleration curve you can get the benefits of having a high sensitivity and low sensitivity at the same time.
The build in mouse acceleration generally within Windows / Linux is ass since you cannot customize it and has tarnished the name of mouse acceleration for years back in the arena shooter days a lot of people used mouse acceleration curves but has fallen back as people stopped using it.
In windows I use a 3rd party program to set a custom curve.
https://github.com/a1xd/rawaccel
"Professional" shooter players usually play on low sensitivity period.
On linux you can manually write some configs, don't know if there's any GUI frontend.
https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Mouse_acceleration
Here. You need libinput >1.24 and it probably only works on xorg. Also evdev supports custom curves but the documentation is hard to find.
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/libinput/libinput/-/merge_requests/775
If you knew how to program you could implement one and share it with others. Me it's the lack of customization for joysticks that made me implement one.
Its users are pretentious and the "Freedom" you receive ultimately boils down to "You make it work, homosexual."
>In the future, try not to fit so well into the Windows shill narrative of Linux users as liars who refuse to believe problems exist.

what the frick is going on? in some games i do reach 99% usage, but it still shows "power throttle".
i never touched any gpu settings once.
it always shows throttling, because that's what the gpu does when you don't need it.
how am i reaching max clock with lower wattage than needed? and why isn't gpu utilization at 99%.
i mean in this case im in the menu, and there's a cap of 144fps. but in game, i reach 100 fps and gpu stays at 70-80% usage.
