No worries buddy 👍

Kernel level anticheat. There’s very effective anticheat that is not kernel level and therefore works fine on Linux.

I had something similar happen a few months ago. I went into…I think it’s wine version or something like that, I’ll check when I get home. Anyway I set everything to use the latest version of proton, then went into wine/proton version/download and selected the option to always download the latest version of proton. Seemed to work for me? Not sure if it’s the same thing for you. Someone above mentioned trying to start games with logging switched on. The log should give you a better idea.

So, warm up the downvote finger and man the flame throwers.

Goddamnit… they’re right…

To build off this. Part of why people, who come off as reasonable and decent in person, can get so…very…VERY unhinged online is that

TL;DR - can’t see people being disgusted with what you just said.

Everyone is pro-dictatorship until they realise they’re not the dictator.

No, so Garuda has a kernel switcher GUI. And I had tried switching to the latest CachyOS kernel, that didn’t seem to do anything. AsusCTL still threw the “missing Asus drivers” error. So I went through the process of actually following the instructions and doing it all myself, and hit the roadblock I mentioned above.

Don’t remember the exact messages.

Was following these instructions off the official page.

Got to where the orange line is on the screenshot below, and it started throwing up a load of network errors. Again can’t remember the exact messages, it’s been a month, but it was saying that the Repos were unreachable. And pacman then stopped working entirely until I removed the Repos.

Edit: I’ll run through it again tonight and come back with actual answers

Tried that. Also didn’t work. 🤷

As I replied above, I’ll give it another shot. Maybe I fucked something up? Everything seemed to be working fine until I added the Repos to pacman, then it all went tits up.

Hm. Maybe I’ll take another shot. I was following the instructions, got as far as installing the keys, adding the Repos didn’t work, it broke pacman.

Doesn’t work for kernels newer than 6.13 if I recall correctly. Tried to install it last month. I’m running Garuda Arch, and kernel 6.15, even having the repository active completely borks pacman.

Edit: it’s an active project, so keep an eye on it. Or install CatchyOS as it’s now standard there.

Edit²: I’m going to have another stab at it, possibly fucked something up? Idk, I was following the instructions, and everything was fine until I added the Repos to pacman.

THERE’S DOZENS OF US, DOZENS!!

I DID grow up with Nintendo. The first gaming thing that wasn’t a DOS computer with asteroids and commander keen on it was a NES. Then an SNES. Then an N64. A few months after the N64 we got a Sega Genesis, and a PS1.

All that said?

…fuck Nintendo. Switch 1 games play at a higher resolution and better frame rate ON MY PHONE. I refused to buy a switch, and there’s no chance in hell I’ll get a switch 2. The fact that they say if they “detect” cheating or that your S2 is jailbroken they reserve the right, and built in the ability to, brick your device. Fuck them, get fucked, no fucking chance they’re getting a single cent, pence, fucking whatever out of me. Fuck yourselves well and truly to fuck! 👍🖕👍

Rant over 🥰

If we’re putting the SteamDeck against Nintendo, I’d say the natural comparison is Steam exclusives against Nintendo exclusives.

I disagree. It would be more accurate to say:

If we’re putting the Steam Deck against the Switch 2, the natural comparison is between Switch 1/2 compatible games, without jailbreak, versus any game that works on the Steam Deck hardware be it Linux Native, with wine/Proton and any emulator that runs games minimum original frame rate with minimal issues.

Bear in mind that the Steam Deck is a handheld Linux computer, and anything that will run on the level of hardware it has and plays nicely with Linux will run on the Steam Deck.

Even just with only installing Steam on the Deck, as of mid-May there is 18k Deck Verified games.

Ugh! My work uniform is technically PPE, so I’m required to wear it…black T shirt, black trousers that are too heavy for summer and too light for winter, and a black coat. The labourers get to wear shorts. They don’t use power tools and mostly just run materials around in a truck with AC… bastards…

Since neither OP nor the video they link actually links to the Steam page…for the lazy.

CrossOver actually. Which is a paid packaging for wine, with a per-program configuration, kinda like Bottles…but paid. There’s a load of quotes directly from the CrossOver parent company CEO…
