I have two monitors, one attached to my Nvidia graphics card using HDMI, the other one using VGA (using a DVI-VGA adapter). Most full-screen games (that even recognizes that there are two monitors) uses the secondary monitor. The primary monitor is correctly set when I check from nvidia-settings, xrandr or KDE system settings. My current workaround is to simply disable monitor 2 when playing a game, but that's not satisfying. How can I effectively set the primary screen?

I installed Don't Starve through steam, and this appeared (https://i.sstatic.net/EjSGUPZP.png) It looks like there is a trouble with gpu drivers, i had same problem with kitty terminal, but solved it by installing mesa-amber instead of mesa. How can i solve this problem? lspci -k output:

system: arch, made pacman -Syu this morning(before it game didn't work too)

Where do I need to look for the directory where games installed with Lutris are saved? I didn't find anything in ~/.local/share/lutris or in ~/.wine.

Unreal Engine and other engines support making games for multiple platforms like iOS, Android, Windows, MacOS and Linux. The games are distributed as pre-compiled executables and they all need specific builds targeted to a particular OS. With the number of different Linux distributions, do there need to be different builds for Ubuntu, Arch etc? How can developers ensure that as many Linux distributions as possible are supported?

English is not my native language, apologize, i'll try to summarize as well as i can my problem. My comp is running Ubuntu 24 (fresh install 2 weeks ago). I'm playing 2 games with this computer using Lutris : - Dark Age of Camelot (Eden Server) : installed via Lutris - Diablo 2 mod (PD2) : same Both those game use keyboards input just above the F1 F2 etc : The highlighted input are not working in both the games but what is weird is : - I can't use them to play : the game does not know that i press them - BUT in chat mode to write message they are working (and they are also working here : 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 ) I don't know if it's clear but nothing happen in game. What i tried : - I used an other keyboard : same issue - I googled my issue : nothing alike - I tried to map those keys to other action in both games but when i try to map and press them, nothing happens Anyone got any clues ?

I have a GNU/Linux Debian 12 laptop on which I installed SuperTux Kart using APT. I want two people to be able to play SuperTux Kart on the same computer using two separate keyboards, **with the same keybindings for action/motion keys**. (One keyboard is built into the laptop and the other is plugged in via USB.) This is a challenge because even though I make the two keyboards into separate controllers within SuperTux Kart, the controls still interfere. In other words, both keyboards are treated as a single one, even though they are listed as separate controllers in SuperTux Kart. How do I treat the second keyboard like a separate controller? I don't mind building stuff from source or installing APT packages, but I don't want to install pre-compiled binaries from anywhere else. - **OS:** Debian GNU/Linux 12 (bookworm) x86_64 - **Kernel:** 6.1.0-28-amd64 - **SuperTux Kart version:** 1.4 - **Compositor:** Wayland (X11-dependant solutions won't work)

I'm running a containerized Valheim server built on debian:12.8-slim. The container has a couple of extras installed: openssh-server, curl, tar, lib32gcc-s1. [Valheim Dedicated Server Guide](https://valheim.com/support/a-guide-to-dedicated-servers/) lists libatmoic1, libpulse-dev, and libpulse0 as required packages; howeve,r the server binary seems to run without them installed. Does anyone know if they are strictly necessary or what they do vis-a-vis the dedicated server? Am I good to cut them out of my container or am I risking some unforeseen crash down the road?

I have a brother with intellectual disabilities, and I wanted to set up a PC for him to play some games on. I wanted to get him a mix of emulated games and native games, but most of the launchers I know of, like Retroarch or Emulation Station, are emulator based, and are also a little bit complicated for him. I really just need something that provides a menu of .desktop files that he can pick with a gamepad. What would be a good option for that?

In Debian11/KDE with Wayland I can't launch games anymore with the Dolphin emulator. Created a bug report with some more details here . Don't know if that's due to building a newer version of Dolphin than the version with which launching games worked on this machine, or due to switching from X11 to Wayland. However, because for a while launching games with Dolphin still worked on it but with Lutris it didn't , I think it must be due to a newer version of Dolphin. If there's an easy way to install the version from the Debian repos without parallel to the built version, I'd try if it works with that version. I installed mesa-vulkan-drivers and then in Dolphin changed "OpenGL" to "Vulkan" in Options->Graphics Settings->Backend. When I try to launch a ROM game that used to work before, I get an error message saying Failed to create Vulkan surface. and when I close it also Failed to initialize video backend!. If I have OpenGL set as backend I only get the second error. I don't have a graphics card but the game was working fine with the same hardware earlier. I'm using i915 graphics drivers. The only output in the console is: MESA-INTEL: warning: Performance support disabled, consider sysctl dev.i915.perf_stream_paranoid=0. Has anybody solved this issue or a suggestion what I should try?

I am attempting to install Age of Empires IV on Linux (Gold Status on ProtonDB ).

Age of Empires IV
Failed to find a supported hardware rendering device. Ensure that your system meets the minimum requirements for Age of Empires IV. Verify that DirectX is properly installed and that you have the latest drivers for your system.
OK
Don't show this message for [ 1 ] days

I never play video games and to be fully honest am uncertain what this means. What can I do to verify DirectX is installed? How do I install it? My installation was made utilizing the Flathub version of Steam . Thank you so much for any help you can provide. _________________________________

Something that has been annoying me for a bit is that my caps:escape xmodmap option does not work in some games including Minecraft and Team Fortress 2. When pressing the capslock/escape button, nothing happens; it triggers neither an escape key event nor letter capitalisation toggle. This is consistent across Xorg (i3) and Wayland/xwayland (Hyprland). I can't find a determining factor that is consistent across all scenarios because it does work in Cities:Skylines. Looking at libraries/APIs used, all games use OGL, C:S and TF2 use SDL2 and the bug is present in MC eventhough it uses the LWJGL/GLFW middleware and generally has very little in common with the other two games. What could be the cause and how can I make it use my xmodmap options? (I'm not interested in alternatives to using xmodmap, I'm aware you could achieve a capslock remap through different means.)

Relevant specs from neofetch: OS = Linux Mint 21.1 x86_64 / Host = H310M H 2.0 / Kernel = 5.15.0-72-generic / DE = Xfce 4.16 / CPU = Intel i5-8400 (6) @ 4.000GHz / GPU = NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti / Memory = 2381MiB / 15944MiB Footage of the issue with mangohud (top-left): **I have had this issue across a few linux distros**, some would cause a system-wide stutter and others would have drops in frame rate such as in the video. The one thing these cases had in common was that I would always observe the CPU usage going up as it occurred. These drops in performance have always happened at intervals and are consistent throughout all gameplay, lasting around 20 to 30 seconds, then operating normally for the same length of time. With mangohud enabled on my game I saw that **the CPU usage went up as the GPU went down**, which leads me to believe that this might be some hardware related issue. The weird thing is that when I first installed this OS, the problem seemed to have disappeared, now it's back. This makes me unsure if this is really hardware issue or software related. This happens with every game I play now, be it on Steam or a different launcher, using proton / wine or a game native to linux. Interestingly, when playing the game Deep Rock Galactic and observing the task manager, the CPU usage went from 10% to 60% for the Steam app instead of the game itself. I'm not sure what that means. How can I determine if this issue is caused by hardware or software? Is there a solution? I can share more information if it is needed. **EDIT:** I have already tried changing the driver version. I've used the nvidia drivers 530, 515 and 470, same problem on each one. I have also tried changing the shader pre-cache settings on Steam. I actually had *another 1050 Ti GPU from an older computer*. I put it in my computer and it ran a bit worse than my newer one but *the frame rate problem still persisted*. I also removed the GPU completely and ran Minecraft on **integrated graphics**, *the problem persisted still*. As far as I can tell, this problem doesn't occur while playing on Windows.

I can't launch Counter Strike 2 on my Dell laptop, with Intel Haswell-ULT graphics, running Linux Mint. When I try I get an error telling me to check if my GPU supports Vulkan 1.2+:

Since updated 1.24. the game produces performance issues on Linux. I run the game with one of the latest versions of Proton via steam due to the fact that I've already had an wargaming account before the game released on steam store. I searched through protondb for my issue and I found the WINE_CPU_TOPOLOGY launch argument workaround. But It didn't solve my problem, the game still drops my fps from 100+ to below 20 every 5 seconds. I asked about on the wot discord server and the wot subreddit, they told me that my config is really outdated for it so it's of course the game stutters, but the problem is not related to my rig even tho I myself admit it's really old but I could play wot without any performance issues on medium settings around january this year. Honestly, I really don't know what to do with this. Is there any other fixes or workaround I can try to solve my problem? I'm starting think it's dead end. My config: - OS: Zorin OS 16.3 64bit; https://zorin.com/os/ Zorin OS 16.3 is based on Ubuntu 22.04 LTS compared to Zorin OS 16, which was based on Ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS - CPU: Intel Core i5-6500 3.20 GHz x 4; Intel Ark - GPU: AMD Radeon R7 370 - RAM: 24 GB (DDR3? / DDR4?) Resources: - Minimum / Recommended system requirements list page - Official documentation on running WoT on Linux - Wine lists a Platinum result in testing 1.x (2018) version - Proprietary AMD graphics Linux drivers for Ubuntu 22.04 based OS P.S.: Sorry if this place is not the right one for my issue, but I tried many subreddits to post my question, and none of them managed to make a proper answer for it.

I have a laptop with both a discrete and an onboard graphics card. I want to run a Game executable file using the discrete GPU but instead it runs on the obnboard one. How can I run it with the discrete GPU? *The game is not installed. It is a folder where I run the executable FILE.* * OS: Pop! OS (Gnome) * CPU: amd ryzen 5 4000series * GPU: NVIDIA GTX 1650 * game: cities:skyline * RAM: 16 gigs * File explorer - Nautilus I get this option for installed apps but how can I get it for executable files?

I'm attempting to install the Multiverse/Hyperspace expansion for the game Faster Than Light (FTL) on my KDE Neon system. I've already purchased and installed FTL through Steam. I found an updated guide for installing the expansion on Linux systems, which can be found [here](https://ftl-hyperspace.github.io/FTL-Hyperspace/install-guides/linux/genericlinux/steam-install) . However, I encountered an issue on step 39 where I received an error stating "hyperspace.xml not found." It seems that the hyperspace.xml file is supposed to be located within the hyperspace.ftl file mentioned in step 21. On my system, the share folder appears to be located under ~/.var/app/com.valvesoftware.Steam/.local/share/, and the FTL folder is ~/.var/app/com.valvesoftware.Steam/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/FTL Faster Than Light/. Below is a summarized version of the steps I followed from the installation guide: 1. Launch FTL to ensure the correct version is running (1.6.13). 2. Download Hyperspace FTL-Hyperspace.x.x.x.zip and Vhati’s Slipstream 1.9.1 for Linux. 3. Extract specific files from the Hyperspace zip file into the FTL data folder. 4. Modify the FTL executable file with certain export lines. 5. Extract the SlipstreamModManager_1.9.1-Unix.tar.gz and move Hyperspace.ftl into the mods folder. 6. Launch Slipstream and patch Hyperspace. 7. Disable Steam Cloud sync and remove old saves to avoid compatibility issues. 8. Step 39 is where I run FTL from steam. I would greatly appreciate any guidance on resolving the error and successfully installing the FTL Multiverse/Hyperspace expansion on KDE Neon. Thank you in advance for your assistance.

I have recently installed Debian Stable 12 in an attempt to revive my 2009 Dell Vostro A860 - a laptop with a Pentium DC T2390 CPU, Intel GMA X3100 integrated graphics and 2Gb of RAM. To maximize performance I am using i3wm with no extra DE installed. I have then installed flatpak Steam and flatpak Lutris, as to have the most recent libraries available, and was met with issues when running games under proton and wine, which gave me the following errors: Lutris: 2023-07-24 11:26:57,291: ['glxinfo', '-B'] command failed: Command '['glxinfo', '-B']' timed out after 5 seconds 2023-07-24 11:26:57,462: No available glxinfo output 2023-07-24 11:26:57,463: Invalid glxinfo received 2023-07-24 11:32:30,409: Starting Lutris 0.5.13 2023-07-24 11:32:31,448: glxinfo is not available on your system, unable to detect driver version 2023-07-24 11:32:31,449: GPU: 8086:2A02 1028:029A (i915 drivers) 2023-07-24 11:39:58,233: Runtime disabled by system configuration 2023-07-24 11:39:59,205: Unable to load libGLX_nvidia.so.0 2023-07-24 11:39:59,206: Unable to locate libGLX_nvidia 2023-07-24 11:39:59,353: Runtime disabled by system configuration 2023-07-24 11:39:59,389: Runtime disabled by system configuration Started initial process 42 from gamemoderun /home/kostya/.var/app/net.lutris.Lutris/data/lutris/runners/wine/lutris-fshack-7.2-x86_64/bin/wine /home/kostya/Games/battlefield-1942/drive_c/Program Files/EA Games/Battlefield 1942/BF1942.exe Start monitoring process. gamemodeauto: gamemodeauto: gamemodeauto: fsync: up and running. gamemodeauto: gamemodeauto: gamemodeauto: gamemodeauto: gamemodeauto: gamemodeauto: gamemodeauto: gamemodeauto: gamemodeauto: gamemodeauto: gamemodeauto: 2023-07-24 11:40:21,026: ['glxinfo', '-B'] command failed: Command '['glxinfo', '-B']' timed out after 5 seconds 2023-07-24 11:40:21,026: No available glxinfo output gamemodeauto: gamemodeauto: gamemodeauto: gamemodeauto: X Error of failed request: GLXBadFBConfig Major opcode of failed request: 152 (GLX) Minor opcode of failed request: 0 () Serial number of failed request: 338 Current serial number in output stream: 338 Steam: GameAction [AppID 240, ActionID 1] : LaunchApp changed task to ProcessingInstallScript with "" GameAction [AppID 240, ActionID 1] : LaunchApp changed task to SynchronizingCloud with "" GameAction [AppID 240, ActionID 1] : LaunchApp changed task to SiteLicenseSeatCheckout with "" GameAction [AppID 240, ActionID 1] : LaunchApp changed task to CreatingProcess with "" GameAction [AppID 240, ActionID 1] : LaunchApp waiting for user response to CreatingProcess "" GameAction [AppID 240, ActionID 1] : LaunchApp continues with user response "CreatingProcess" /bin/sh\0-c\0/home/kostya/.var/app/com.valvesoftware.Steam/.local/share/Steam/ubuntu12_32/reaper SteamLaunch AppId=240 -- /home/kostya/.var/app/com.valvesoftware.Steam/.local/share/Steam/ubuntu12_32/steam-launch-wrapper -- '/home/kostya/.var/app/com.valvesoftware.Steam/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/SteamLinuxRuntime_sniper'/_v2-entry-point --verb=waitforexitandrun -- '/home/kostya/.var/app/com.valvesoftware.Steam/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/Proton - Experimental'/proton waitforexitandrun '/home/kostya/.var/app/com.valvesoftware.Steam/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/Counter-Strike Source/hl2.exe' -steam -game cstrike\0 Game process added : AppID 240 "/home/kostya/.var/app/com.valvesoftware.Steam/.local/share/Steam/ubuntu12_32/reaper SteamLaunch AppId=240 -- /home/kostya/.var/app/com.valvesoftware.Steam/.local/share/Steam/ubuntu12_32/steam-launch-wrapper -- '/home/kostya/.var/app/com.valvesoftware.Steam/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/SteamLinuxRuntime_sniper'/_v2-entry-point --verb=waitforexitandrun -- '/home/kostya/.var/app/com.valvesoftware.Steam/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/Proton - Experimental'/proton waitforexitandrun '/home/kostya/.var/app/com.valvesoftware.Steam/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/Counter-Strike Source/hl2.exe' -steam -game cstrike", ProcID 699, IP 0.0.0.0:0 chdir "/home/kostya/.var/app/com.valvesoftware.Steam/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/Counter-Strike Source" ERROR: ld.so: object '/home/kostya/.var/app/com.valvesoftware.Steam/.local/share/Steam/ubuntu12_32/gameoverlayrenderer.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded (wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32): ignored.

I have so far tried installing wine through APT, installing new mesa drivers (both 32 and 64 bit), executing "export MESA_GL_VERSION_OVERRIDE=..." in the terminal, installing lutris specific wine versions through ProtonUp, installing nvidia drivers (to fix the libGLX_nvidia.so.0 error) and obviously a lot of rebooting.

I have researched solutions on the internet, and have not managed to find any that correspond with my specific set of issues. Any help would be greatly appreciated and thank you for taking the time to read through my post.

I'm trying to play a very old [Star Trek BSD game](https://manpages.debian.org/unstable/bsdgames/trek.6.en.html) . It recognises characters that I type, but I occasionally make an error and want to use the arrow keys to correct it. This always fails. The pressing the left arrow on my keyboard makes me type ^[[D and the other arrow keys are similar. I believe that many old packages behave like this. What are the idiomatic solutions to this problem? Are them some old-school keyboard shortcuts that I have not thought to try? Or must I resort to manually modifying the game myself? It certainly seems to not expect Vi movements.

[This video](https://youtu.be/ahsO5bhBUtk?t=622) shows how increasing the polling rate decreases the average input lag for gaming controllers. Unfortunately, the software used to modify the polling rate is called [hidusbf](https://github.com/LordOfMice/hidusbf) and is only available for Windows. I found [gcadapter-oc-kmod](https://github.com/HannesMann/gcadapter-oc-kmod) which can be used to increase the polling rate of GameCube adapters on Linux, but I was wondering how I could modify the polling rate of any USB device.
