Under Windows this is an option in the AMD control panel. Not sure how to enable it.
Specifically, this is for a non-native Proton game with FSR support built in. I am not using GE as I need the latest code in Proton experimental to run this game.
Hey Folks,
I had Diablo 4, the Battle.net version, running perfectly fine under Lutris Flatpak. Then randomly one day it just stopped working, I didn't download a new version of the wine runner I was using, I didn't make any configuration changes it just broke. Specifically it boots, the screen goes grey for a few seconds, and then it loads up super slowly, like 1 fps and makes the game interface and Plasma becomes unusable, so I have to drop to a TTY to kill the process. Nothing really interesting is show if I select "show logs" in Lutris.
I was thinking some Flatpak Lutris update broke it, so I tried to install the game using Bottles, also a Flatpak, but ended up with exact same problem. Now I am thinking this may be a Mesa problem since that is a dependency both of these Flatpaks share. I am using the same Wine GE version on both, but it's a version from February and it worked just fine a few weeks ago.
Any recommendations on what I could do or what I could look at to debug further?
I have 2 drives in my machine. Linux right now is installed on 1/4 of the first drive and I am going to start moving parts of my 2nd drive, which is just games on Windows, to a 1/2 combo of NTFS and BTRFS. Essentially giving Linux more space as it replaces Windows as my gaming daily driver. With the eventual plan to move that entire 2nd drive over to BTRFS, and allow Windows to have 3/4 of the 1st drive for games that only run under it.
Curious how folks have set this up. Currently I have Steam, Heroic and Lutris installing to ~/Games
. So it may make sense to mount my new drive there, but I am not sure that in home folder mounts make sense. I also realize I could potentially use BTRFS to make it look like my space is all one mount point vs multiple, but given the complexity of that filesystem I am worried there is a downside I am not aware of.
Any suggestions? What has worked for you for your setup?
I am using the Steam Flatpak on OpenSuse Tumbleweed and when using the Steam interface, specifically when I get a chat message or try to respond to one, the Steam UI will hard freeze, as in a I can't type or move windows or interact with anything and then 30 seconds or so later everything goes back to normal. Plasma is still response when all of this is going on, it's just the Steam UI that freezes.
It's super odd and I have been running the Flatpak in the terminal to see if I can chat any relevant log messages but haven't seen any yet. It's been a little bit since I used the OpenSuse package and I think I remember seeing these freezes occasionally, but they seem much more common on the Flatpak version.
Anyone else get this behavior?
Not sure what happened but I've been running Steam games using MANGOHUD=1 gamemoderun %command%
and it's been working fine with Mangohud. Suddenly, no Mangohud. Mangohud still works with Lutris.
I am using the Flatpak version so I looked at my history and there haven't been any updates to the Steam or Mangohud Flatpaks when the breakage occurred. Nothing relevant is logged out if I run Steam using flatpak run com.valvesoftware.Steam
. Inside Steam there have been a few updates, including an update to the common redistributable and that may have been around the time this broke. The only other thing I see is that Gnome updated some Flatpak stuff recently as well.
System wise I am on OpenSuse Tumbleweed using KDE Plasma 6. Any tips for debugging further?

As the title asks, how does one actually use HDR for games after upgrading to Plasma 6?
This was the feature I was most excited about, and I can hit the HDR button on my display configuration and it looks like the desktop is going into HDR mode, but so far I have had zero luck enabling the HDR feature in games. Every game I've tried had the HDR toggle disabled with no way to enable it.
I am running these games under Proton and I've tried both 8-GE and 9 Beta. Any tips?
Edit: probably important to note that I am using an AMD GPU under Wayland
I was going to going to ask this question because Steam Flatpak was listed as last being updated May 2023, but they just updated it yesterday. That's still about 9 month between updates.
In general if I am on rolling release like OpenSuse Tumbleweed is my Steam package and Mesa drivers going to be more up to date then what the Steam Flatpak provides or are they updating the Flatpak and dependencies more frequently then the Discover app is suggesting?
I've done some Googling on this topic and some folks are saying it should just work and that distro I am on, OpenSuse, used to patch Firefox with support for global menus or that the Plasma extension should give you support but I haven't been able to get anything to work.
Anyone know what is needed / if this is even possible with current Firefox?
Me again!
Using Discord while playing Hunt Showdown and if I alt+tab away from the game into Discord to volume adjust, unmute myself or someone else, the left clicks are going to the game and causing some not so great misfires. Anyway to prevent the left click from propagating into the game window?
Using KDE + Wayland and Discord Flatpak if that effects it at all.
