Steam input not working with non steam games
I'm currently using Bazzite Gnome with open Nvidia drivers, and I cannot get Steam Input to work with non-steam games at all. I have games from GOG and Epic Games that I downloaded through Heroic Games Launcher, and I tried everything for steam input work with them, but it just doesn't seem to work. Here is what I did:
- I added the games to the steam client.
- I configured the device inputs under "Controller" from the settings menu.
- I made sure that the game I want to play has steam input turned on.
- I disabled the "use desktop configuration in launcher" option.
- I disabled steam input for non-game controller layouts.
- I made sure to enable steam input for all types of controllers.
Non of these steps seem to remedy the issue. I want to make it clear that I did not experience this issue while using the Steam Deck, which is also running a Linux distribution. Any suggestions?
Thank you in advance.
Monitor keeps post login restarting after an update (Help Needed)
Hello guys. I posted this problem elsewhere but I've yet to find a solution. I'm experiencing an extremely annoying issue in which the monitor keeps disconnecting and reconnecting in loop post login after a system update. I've first experienced this issue with fedora after updating my system and installing nvidia graphics card. I then tried Bazzite, same exact issue, but at least with Bazzite I can roll back the update, which is a temporary solution. There are several culprits that could be causing this issue:
-
Kernel update
-
Nvidia drivers update
-
Wayland
-
All of the above
Is anyone else experiencing this exact issue? And if so, any solution besides rolling back the update? Any help is appreciated.
Relevant specs:
-
Nvidia RTX 3060ti GPU
-
Intel Core i5 11400F CPU
-
Asus Prime B560M-K motherboard
-
Samsung Odyssey G5 Monitor (connected through displayport)
I hope they dont go for dolphin or cemu claiming that certain games are in their e-shop for the switch 2 release.
That's exactly what I'm afraid of
I think this also shows how underpowered Nintendo consoles are; the Switch is essentially a slightly upgraded Wii U, which itself was only marginally better than the PS3 and Xbox 360! If Nintendo really wanted to combat piracy, all they had to do was beef up their flagship console to the point where it's hard to emulate.
Why is Nintendo in particular this aggressive against emulators? Why haven't we heard of Sony going after PCSX2 and RPCS3, or Microsoft going after Xenia and Xemu?
The existence of GOG and Steam is why gaming is bearable in 2024
"Unless it's renders the product completely unusable, why spend money and fix it?"
Corporate mindset in a nutshell!
No, I was referencing a scene from the show "Space Force" where the exact same thing occurs.
You missed the main issue my friend, it's not about having a launcher or an account, it's the way their doing it.
No wonder indie games are getting more popular each year
I'm honestly against all the other launchers too, but at the very least I'm able to make an account without inputting false location info, as well as actually buy their games! But with Playstation it's a special case; Sony is the only gaming company that refuse to provide PSN in many countries for some fucking reason!
Well I expected that since I'm posting this on r/Steam it would be full of PC gamers, and usually PC gamers are older and therefore more mature than console gamers. I guess I was wrong!
Yes. Although on AskReddit, this question would've been removed by the automod because it's technically a yes or no question.
Thank you for all the respectful comments. I complained about this on r/Steam on Reddit, thinking they'd discuss the issue like grown ups. All I got though was shit comments after shit comments, the likes of "cry about it" and "whomp whomp", someone even dismissed my rant as a "tantrum"!
What's your thoughts on Sony pushing PSN down on PC gamers' throats?
This is affecting many PC gamers around the world, such as myself, as the last 3 PlayStation releases on Steam have been blocked in many countries. I wanna know what's your take on this. Please be respectful, and thank you. 😊
Flatpak GTK apps not follwing the chosen GTK theme.
Hello. I'm using Debian testing with KDE Plasma 5.27. I'm experiencing a problem where GTK Flatpaks are not following the chosen GTK theme despite giving them permissions to access .themes and .icons folders found in the home directory. I tried the running the following commands in the terminal:
flatpak override --filesystem=xdg-config/gtk-4.0:ro flatpak override --filesystem=xdg-config/gtk-3.0:ro
I even tried to specify a certain GTK theme to be chosen, that resulted in the flatpak changing to an ugly white-adwaita theme. I should note that this is happening exclusively with GTK Flatpaks, QT Flatpaks and GTK deb packages don't seem to have this problem. What am I missing here? Any help would be appreciated.
How to figure out the exact driver needed for the WiFi card to install it on Linux?
I apologize if this seems like a trivial matter, but I have a laptop (a Lenovo Ideapad 3 to be exact) and I can't get WiFi (or Bluetooth) to work on anything other than Ubuntu 23.04 and its flavors. I tried OpenSUSE Leap and Debian 12, both couldn't detect the built-in WiFi card. I also tried Ubuntu-based distros such as Linux Mint, KDE Neon, and Zorin OS, same problem. I tried Kubuntu 22.04 LTS and even that couldn't detect the WiFi card! So for the mean time, I'm stuck with using Ubuntu 23.04. Any ideas to get around this? Can I use Ubuntu to figure the exact WiFi card that's being used then download its driver? If so, how can I do that exactly? Note that my Laptop doesn't have a built-in Ethernet port, and I don't want to buy a USB Ethernet adapter only for it not work out of the box either! Any help would be appreciated!
Can't install or remove using apt.
Greetings. APT is completely broken and I have no idea why. Whenever I try install, remove, or upgrade a package (or packages) I receive this error:
Removing linux-image-6.2.0-23-generic (6.2.0-23.23) ... /etc/kernel/postrm.d/initramfs-tools: update-initramfs: Deleting /boot/initrd.img-6.2.0-23-generic /etc/kernel/postrm.d/zz-update-grub: Sourcing file `/etc/default/grub' /usr/sbin/grub-mkconfig: 12: /etc/default/grub: i915.enable_psr=0: not found run-parts: /etc/kernel/postrm.d/zz-update-grub exited with return code 127 dpkg: error processing package linux-image-6.2.0-23-generic (--remove): installed linux-image-6.2.0-23-generic package post-removal script subprocess returned error exit status 1 dpkg: too many errors, stopping Errors were encountered while processing: linux-image-6.2.0-23-generic Processing was halted because there were too many errors.

I tried researching my problem online but got nowhere. Any help would be appreciated it.
