Congrats on getting it running then :)
Running it in Proton is so quick and easy, you might as well try it once. You’ve got nothing to lose. All you do is add non-steam game, then force it to use proton if you don’t force proton on all games by default like I do.
I’ve had mine for at least 5 years, probably more. You don’t need any software on Linux, it’s picked up as a normal USB audio device: SteelSeries ApS SteelSeries Arctis 7
I’m no audiophile, but audio quality is great. I had the Logitech G930 before and I like this better. The one USB device actually presents 2 audio devices to the computer because it has this neat dial that lets you mix your game sound and chat sounds right on the headset.
If startx and everything else works fine, my guess is that sddm or whatever login manager you’re using is messed up. Maybe reinstall/reset its configuration files and go from there.
I use the steelseries arctis 7 (I think, it’s the non-pro version). It works great in Endeavor and is very simple. I don’t think I can tell how much charge the battery has but I charge it every night so that’s not an issue. Highly recommend buying a magnetic USB cord for it.
Have you tried just adding your tweaked version as a non-steam game and then running that in Proton?
KDE has a good zoom feature built in, however it keeps the mouse centered which is good for doing precise graphical thing, but maybe not the best for gaming. It’s good for reading if you hold your mouse still. You can absolutely find or make a green cursor. Some guy here said gaming on Linux is janky but honestly I’ve been super impressed for the past year I’ve used it. I only had one game that wouldn’t run out of the box so far and got it running by installing some Microsoft VC runtime or something. Everything else just starts runs without issue. Edit: runs without issue in steam.
The spacing looks fine here, I copied and pasted it into Kate and it worked fine, maybe you’re on a phone or something. Here’s a link to my latest version:
See anything interesting in dmesg after all that starts happening?
DevilsPie is the name of the software I couldn’t remember.
I did a workaround by editing a script I found and don’t understand using xprop, xwininfo, and xdotool. I probably should have mentioned that I’m using X, most of this stuff doesn’t work on Wayland. Here’s my script so far:
#!/bin/bash
xprop -spy -root _NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW | grep --line-buffered -o '0[xX][a-zA-Z0-9]\{7\}' |
while read -r id; do
class="`xprop -id $id WM_CLASS 2> /dev/null | grep TeamViewer`"
if [ -n "$class" ]; then
if xprop -id "$id" | grep -q 'WM_NAME(STRING) = "TeamViewer Authentication"'; then
echo "key Tab
key space
key shift+Tab
key shift+Tab
key Down
key Tab
type {my.username}
key Tab
key ctrl+u"| xdotool -
# wait for the window to be closed
xprop -spy -id $id > /dev/null 2>&1
fi
fi
done
It spits out errors after the window closes because I think it’s trying to get windows properties from the now closed window, but it gets the job done!
Edit: changed the script to be much smaller and not show errors.
I’m doing my part!
That was the thing that drew me toward KDE, super configurable. It seems like gnome tries to hide advanced stuff for users or just not offer it. That and it’s beautiful and full-featured.
My favorite is called “event calendar” so you might not find it if you are searching for clock. It hasn’t been ported to kde6 yet.
The way I explain it is that it’s virtual desktops that you can start and stop at will and run scripts when doing that as well as switching to and from activities. It also has different shortcuts like this other guy said
Bummer :(
Been playing sc2 on Linux for 8 months. They won’t ban obvious and known cheaters, I’m not worried about playing in Linux.
You should report the bugs to the proton devs, not the game dev.
You’re on 5, upgrade to 6 (if possible)!
