I have personal experience with BTRFS and Windows. And that experience is that it’s roughly as stable/complete as NTFS is for Linux. 6 of one and a half dozen the other. I can’t recommend either situation for guaranteed stability long term between systems if one really needs to swap between the OS’s frequently while accessing all the same files.
Weird! I’m running Bazzite kde (so fedora based, like Nobara but with different tweaks and it’s atomic), and gamescope gives me zero problems. Might be some weird combination of software versions between gamescope and kde in your system. Or just a general kde config problem. I love kde, but all that customization can absolutely come at the price of stability at times.
Might be worth trying gamescope on another known working game too. Would help narrow down if it’s gamescope itself or the game you’re trying to use it on.
Interesting. I haven’t had any issues with gamescope for a long time… Back when it was new I definitely had issues running things with it… But it’s been a long time since that’s been the case. I can recommend running steam from a terminal and viewing the output after trying to run the game with gamescope. It might point you in the right direction.
Should be something like - “gamescope -W 1920 -H 1080 -f %command%” I will also note that mine tends to crash/not launch if I don’t put Mangohud arguments BEFORE gamescope. The w and h arguments are just width and height resolution, so set those to match your monitor. The “-f” is for full screen.
I run mine with the actual photos on HDD but the database on SSD. So far everything has been near instantaneous for loading, downloading, uploading, you name it.
In my experience this is almost always the compositor not properly syncing display frames with the game render frames. The best solution I’ve personally found is to run the offending game through game scope. It worked for Fallout 4 on my rx 7600xt gpu when I went to lock the fps to 60 (to avoid physics bugs, stupid Bethesda). Without game scope locking the frame rate caused horrendous stuttering despite solid fps.
I can’t even fathom how many layers deep we are in sarcasm.
Oh I never said I didn’t like anything. Chocolate and vanilla are both great. And they certainly must compliment the soup.
Thank you for clarifying. The flavors of the ice cream is really what I was hung up on here.
I can vouch for Bazzite. Been running it on my desktop and laptop (both amd gpu’s) with virtually no issues or hiccups. The desktop is even dual boot, despite that not being advised.
As someone who makes meads/wines in a closet and has done so while renting, I don’t particularly see the relevance as long as your batches are small and contained… Typically, the tools and ingredients aren’t wildly expensive either if you’re keeping things simple (in the US, anyways). Honestly, I don’t see how more demographics don’t get into the basics of homebrewing. It’s dead simple to make something “passable” and with time and effort you can even make something good/great!
