It’s possible your screens electrically disconnect themselves when going to sleep, which makes Plasma refresh its desktop layout, causing flickering.

My Asus screen does this when powered off but not in standby. That used to crash Plasma Wayland back in 5.24 lol

Just tried the Proton-Tkg Wine Master and it works. I get occasional issues in UIs and also have a broken Steam overlay, but it’s good enough for me, thanks :3

To my knowledge said blobs are for Secure Boot support, and can be safely removed if said support is not necessary

May I know which Proton version you’ve used? I tried the CachyOS variant

How about mouse constraints? Last time I tried Genshin with pure Proton Wayland and my mouse kept escaping to my second monitor :/

You can download an APK from the F-Droid website

Are you interested in receiving assistance with your issue?

Flatpak doesn’t support DRM leasing so software can’t access the displays of the headset. Envision is also available as an AppImage: https://gitlab.com/gabmus/envision/-/pipelines?ref=main&status=success

Have you tried Envision/Monado on your Index? I have a Vive Pro and the performance is significantly better, albeit you lose controller rebinding feature and OpenVR (games which require SteamVR) compatibility is meh

“Old” chargers are USB-A. Bundled cables are USB-C to USB-C, so you have to buy a new charger for it, or an USB-A to USB-C cable.

Additionally within the same brand you can have cheap phones with full suite of accessories - a charger, a case and screen protector, but once you go higher with a price tag you get less in a box. Example: OnePlus Nord CE 3 Lite, which is now just a brand of Oppo, comes with a charger, a case and a screen protector, while their higher end model Oppo Reno 12 Pro comes with just a screen protector.

Samsung went even a step further and started making their boxes thicker, suggesting it comes with a charger, but in reality it comes with just a cable inside. Forgot which model was it though, iirc one of their Galaxy M line.

Kinda predictable from a person who claimed their product (Phone 2a) has the best unboxing experience, despite bundling an USB cable to it only.

Iirc there’s a setting for Wireplumber (in case you’re using PipeWire) to disable that behaviour when a BT mic is being picked up

Thanks, it’s a heavily modified VRChat avatar called Rindo, in case you’re curious :3 : https://booth.pm/en/items/3443188

At first I was tipping my toes in Ubuntu but kept coming back to Windows as I kept running into stability issues. Googling my issues very frequently kept sending me to the Arch wiki, and I thought “well if they have so much covered, why not use this distro instead”. That and 196 subreddit (rule) made me try Arch, and my experience was noticeably better. Barely any crashes and improving Proton compatibility made me use it more and more. I kept a windows install for VR and anti-cheat enabled games until late 2023.

During my transition period (both in Linux and gender lol) between 2021 and now, I kept getting comments “why are you making your life harder with Linux, just use Windows where everything works”. Well, nowadays tables have turned and now I get to say “weird it works for me on Linux”. Except VR, it’s still a mixed experience.

3?!? Geez my perception of time is so skewed

Yes, should be PROTON_ENABLE_NVAPI=1 %command%

PROTON_ENABLE_NVAPI=1

It does, you need to enable nvapi through environmental variables

Try disabling the Steam Overlay, and Steam’s FPS counter if you have it on

Look up Forza Motorsport, they already came up with some “Game Services” which make it unbootable on Linux
