Doesn’t Arch have an installer these days?

there aren’t that many

Audacious has a Winamp skin, that’s enough for me.

I think what Missphant was asking wasn’t “what is input latency” but was “does flatpak introduce more input latency than a ‘normal’ application”. Unfortunately, after a quick search I didn’t find any benchmarks. (I didn’t look very thoroughly.)

It runs great but the EA app is a pain in the arse.

This takes me back to the Xbox 360 era.

I’m surprised Cyberpunk runs on the Steam Deck as well as it does. It truly is an incredible little machine.

I am continuously shocked that people play things like BG3 or Cyberpunk on their Steam Deck.

When one has no other choice, one plays one’s favourite game under any conditions. When I was little, I played Minecraft at 15 to 20 FPS and the lowest draw distance.

Try cleaning you cache as suggested in this thread: https://steamcommunity.com/app/1086940/discussions/3/4032473436326468727/

It should be located in ~/.local/share/Larian Studios/Baldur's Gate 3.

I have BG3 from GOG and got the Linux binaries from a friend.

I feel like this could be the root of the problem. The icons in the Windows version of the game might be in a different format, so the Linux binary is looking for files which do not exist. Something like that.

I’d suggest also installing the Teams app on your smartphone (if you have one) just in case something goes tits up. It’s (a little bit) less buggy than the web version.

There was an official Linux app but it was discontinued a while ago. There was also an unofficial flatpak which packaged the web version as a stand-alone app. I think it’s unmaintained now.

Yeah, same. Rust projects generally seems to prefer MIT license for some reason. I guess they’ll go the FreeBSD way of occasionally getting some contributions from the big companies.

Secondly, I think I remember that it’s trying to replicate the linux, I haven’t seen any innovations to the typical stack. If I started a kernel from scratch I’d like to implement as many improvements and innovations that has come out since the 2000.

Although Redox is not the most innovative operating system under the sun, it does many things differently than Linux. The biggest difference is that it is a microkernel rather than a monolithic kernel. Yes, Redox is Unix-like, so it looks a lot like Linux in userspace, but in my opinion, this makes it more digestible for the average user and gives it a better chance of catching on.

Redox and SerenityOS are two operating systems that I keep an eye on and root for to catch on (at least a little).

You know you. But my experience from back in uni is that carrying a gaming handheld was pointless. if I have free time between classes I am going to do my homework or hang out with friends. And once classes are over? I am going home (or to hang out with friends again).

I agree. When I was in college, both in between classes and after them I either didn’t have the time, energy, or mood to play anything.

@[email protected], if I were in your shoes, I’d stick with the laptop you currently have. Especially if it’s still in working condition and if it’s light. Get a new laptop only if the current one is heavy – you don’t want to carry around a 20-kilogram gaming laptop everywhere!

If you want to get a new machine and you’re set on getting either the Framework or the Steam Deck, I would choose the Framework. I think they are similar in terms of performance (all I know is that both of them can play Spider-man Remastered), but I can’t imagine doing anything productive on the Steam Deck (even with a mouse and keyboard connected). And hauling two devices around (laptop plus Steam Deck) gets annoying quick.

I tried emulation, but I really struggle with the different button graphics showing when emulating PS2 or Gamecube games. I don’t know which button X is supposed to be. :\

I think it’s gotten better. Turning on offline mode also solves this.

Does Arma run well on Linux these days? I remember trying to run Arma 2 on my Linux box back in the day and failing.

It shouldn’t be that hard. Use Shellcheck to check for mistakes. Good luck!

It might be possible with inotify.
