I’m not going back arch/bazzite to try this. For two reasons, 1. I can’t enable those things, my hardware doesn’t support reBAR. And 2. My issue sounds potentially different. I could load and run the game, but it would crash regularly. Realistically, if this is the issue my only solution is to roll back to an old kernel (not supported in arch), and I’m not sure if that fly’s in bazzite either. Distro hoping to Mint is then a great solution, even if I didn’t take a rational path there.

I run fedora 40 on my work laptop, and I am blow away at how capable Wayland+gnome is for plug and go multiple monitor support. You could never have done it with X, every meeting you’d want 15min to make sure you can share your screen.

Oh yeh good catch.

I can’t do resizable bar, so it would have been a kernel regression to fix (if that was the issue). I think patched in next release. Although I never got any error messaging in any logs that i could see :(

The nice thing about the deck, at least from an outsiders perspective, is that everyone’s got the more or less same hardware. If you have an issue most likely someone else has the same issue, and already has a fix that’ll work for you.

Slightly more context:

" “I don’t know if we’re going to pull it off,” he wrote, “but looking at our narrative, visual and gameplay plans, I think what we’re working on now will be our best work ever.” "

At first I was like, it’s fine. Then I realised we were comparing the flowing water. I didn’t even notice that the second image is of flowing water too…

“Humans will survive this” - I am unconvinced, I think there are very real reasons to consider the coming climate variations as an existential threat.

I think the microtransactions praise was more are, non predatory marketing / extracting every last cent praise. Didn’t Stanfield have a premium cost to pay a week earlier or something? Is that not a similar concept, albeit nowhere near as shit as microtransactions.

Are we not all tired of being wrung out for our cash? What’s so wrong with just charging what you need so that you can make a game.

Sure.

What i don’t follow is why you’re having this experience, when for the average user is click to install and play out if the box for many many games.

If it’s not the game, because you’ve checked protondb, and it’s not the software, because you’ve installed multiple distros i feel like you’ve either got some super unique hardware challenge or you’re making a unlikely mistake. Heaven forbid people ask you if you’ve done things that are obvious, we’re just trying to help. Nothing sucks more than sinking time into getting a game to work for it to fail.

Regardless, based on highly emotional responses to many posts my guess is that you’re the root cause of your own problems.

Lol, so defensive.

So the games not running is a problem unique to your system then

Do you check protondb?

This would be a stronger argument, if it wasn’t 20 years old already.

I dunno, I’ve been blown away with how stable Arch is over the last 5 years I’ve been using it. I’ve not updated for 6 month + periods, i was worried but I just needed to update the keys first. Also I don’t even have a boot usb, apart from install (and learning some hard lessons about UFEI stubs) I’ve not had to recover a single time.

It’s a stark contrast to 2011 when I decided I just didn’t have time to do my PhD and maintain my arch install and went back to Windows.
