I switched to EOS Endeavour OS. I don’t think it has data collection

I forgot it once many months ago and never before or after

Rockstar replied to someone’s support request

We certainly understand that you are unable to login to GTA online through Steam Deck after the update.

We would like to inform you that the primary goal of incorporating BattlEye into GTA Online is to enhance the overall gaming experience by actively scanning for cheats and exploits, and preventing players with cheats and mods from entering online. The Steam Deck players will not be able to join GTA Online but should be able to launch single-player without any issues. We appreciate your understanding in this matter.

If you have any further questions or concerns, please feel free to let us know. We are here to assist you.

I can definitely see Microsoft releasing a “gaming os” that will lock down your PC and basically make it a console in all but name. I would be surprised if it’s not in the works already for a handheld device.

I just found this thread as well could not be a good thing for us Linux users.

Yes

are you talking about hunt showdown the game or just playing with gamescope. For Hunt you need to use bleeding edge version of proton. Its in the beta setting of proton experimental.

Edit: as for gamescope yea it has not went well haha

Yes desktop resolution is the same resolution. If I’m understanding the github link it seems to be game specific and fixed for that game now (overwatch) I did not try with another game I was playing hunt showdown witch needs the bleeding edge of proton right now so maybe gamescope does not work? Sorry if I sound stupid not entirely sure thanks for the help though I will try another game today.

Ok you lost me. I don’t want to downscale or do any form of upscaling. I want to still render the game at 1440 p full screen. When I left those arguments blank it rendered the game screen at something small not sure what. My desktop screen resolution is 144. I might be misunderstanding.

No idea who this is but actually a great video.

could be wrong but I think that’s the problem. I was always told do windows first so if you remove the windows drive you don’t really have a windows drive anymore so the install is wrong/buggy or whatever. Keep both drives in and do windows then linux

When you say removed drive do you mean physically took it out of the PC. I have no idea why that would matter but I never did that step. All I did to dual boot mint & win 11 was put in an extra SSD and put mint on it. Now when ever I boot I can choose mint or windows before anything.

I think it will be a long time of ever I will remove my windows boot. I love gaming on Linux but until games “support” Linux it won’t be my only boot device.

After reading this thread I hope this is true I have had 2 laptops plugged in one for like 5 years non stop (this one I deactivated the battery in BIOS it’s old) and the other for about a year…

For me fedora did not handle my 3080 well at all. Switched to mint and only real want is to upgrade Nvidia drivers to the 550 or whatever is the current best one. For me it is not available in the driver settings and not sure how else to get them…

Thanks for your detailed response. I did discover that my GPU load (etc 3080) was maxing out witch is the normal for windows aswell it’s just weird that I get like half the fps for the same amount of work. I don’t really play halo Infinite as much anymore and when I do I just decide to boot windows. I’m not exactly experienced in Linux or what to try to change to make it work better. I do plan on sometime upgrading to a newer os to try a newer Nvidia driver to see if that fixes it or makes it better. I do believe I have mouse acceleration off in my OS unless there are multiple ways to have it turned on.

Thanks again :)

Dang it still works for my friends on windows I can’t seem to get it to work no matter what client I use on Linux

Post has been updated thank you

This might be my misunderstanding but when you say mainstream distribution what do you mean. My understanding is mint is built on Ubuntu similar to how nobara is built on fedora. So for example if something broke or I wanted to something on mint I can follow Ubuntu instructions (kind of) and follow fedora for nobara? Sorry if this is dumb question

omg that link is so cool thanks
