Nvidia? Which distribution? My experience is on Bazzite with a Radeon 7800 XT and 9070 XT. I've had two amdgpu hangs playing The Finals which were a Mesa bug, this crashed kwin but kwin wasn't responsible in the stack trace. It&#x

I think a lot of cachy performance is placebo, because Steam games use the container runtime's Debian 11 libraries, it doesn't use the native CachyOS ones at all.

This doesn't make much sense, ChromeOS is itself Linux, and those are prime "computers for parents" machines.

I mean, what version of KDE is this? I've had a handful of crashes since 2024, but all of them GPU driver related.

Call of Duty and Battlefield both run at 4K@120 with dynamic resolution scaling, PSSR or FSR. Most single player games (Spider-Man, God of War, Assassin's Creed etc) will allow a balanced graphics/performance which does 40 in a 12

Once it's out you could but EKs are unique and tied to hardware. Using an EK to sign a boot state on hardware that doesn't match is a flag to an anti-cheat tool, and would only ever work for one person. It also means that if you d

This is called the Endorsement Key, and you're correct, it never leaves the TPM. The TPM is a "black box" to the OS.

by tapoxi 9mo ago
The call asks the TPM to display the signed boot chain, you can't fake that because it wouldnt be cryptographically valid. The TPM is that independent hardware.

TVs don't support displayport, so it makes Linux PCs like the Steam Machine inferior console replacements if you want high refresh rates. A lot of TVs now support 4K/120hz with VRR, the PS5 and Xbox Series X also support those mod

You're right because the games run in containers anyway, steam-runtime.

The war is lost. The most popular game that refuses to use kernel-level anti-cheat is Valve's Counter-Strike 2, so the community implemented it themselves (FaceIT) and requires it for the competitive scene.

No, just have the anti-cheat trust kernels signed by the major Linux vendors and use secure boot with remote attestation. Remote attestation can't be fooled from kernel space, that's the entire point of the technology. That way yo

The interesting solution here is secure boot, only allow users to play from a set of trusted kernels.

But ConcernedApe uses Monogame for Stardew Valley, the studios don't use Monogame. Why would they donate?

It's already been done, though. Wine has been around for 30 years and has excellent compatibility at this point.

Their insistence on Snap over Flatpak is just confusing the ecosystem, not helping it. I get it's a lock-in thing for them (Snap is locked to Canonical's proprietary store and only allows Ubuntu runtimes) but that's a harmful

Valve is actually extremely small, I've heard estimates at around 350-400 people. They're also a flat organization, with all the good and bad that brings, so scaling with contractors is easier than bringing on employees that might

Fortnite and Call of Duty are consistently the #1 and #2 games every year. The others like GTA, Battlefield, League of Legends and Valorant also have anti-cheat that blocks Linux. It's not a minor issue.
