You might want to look at just how fast RAM is

...Is this supposed to be a play on the title? IE: The fix is low quality?

there is no proprietary AMD Linux driver

I mean, there is. It just isn't recommended for most users.

FYI: If you aren't aware, Arch has a CLI installer now that is very easy to use, should you ever want to give it a try (archinstall)

Endeavour is basically Arch with a more user friendly installer, a very small number of their own packages, and a coat of paint.

Manjaro is similar, except Manjaro runs their own repositories and delays packages for testing. This can lead to a whole bunch of issues when combined with the AUR. The team leading it has also been shown to be a little inept at times. I wouldn't personally recommend it.

The modlog is public on lemmy

The only downside is it can make web browsing and shopping a bit of a pain. But that’s my own fault for not taking 10 minutes to figure out how to set up split tunneling or just hosting qBittorrent on my media server…

Advice: Look up Gluetun and dockerize your torrent/vpn setup. Makes things real simple (including moving where it is hosted, should you choose to)

That makes the stat worse, not better, no?

Uncounted users means fewer posts per user.

How did you install PCSX2? The fact that you are launching it through Cartridge makes me a little worried that you are using the windows version. Try the AppImage or Flatpak packages and see if you have any improvement (assuming you aren't already using those)

Oh, 100%. In terms of posts per active user, they look to be killing it.

EAC Seems broken on Arch? (lemmy.simpl.website)
submitted 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) by [email protected] to c/[email protected]
 

I recently installed BattleBit Remastered on Steam (uses EAC). Upon trying to run the game, I only get as far as a screen telling me to ensure EAC is installed. I tried their "repair EAC" option in steam, and there was no change (a terminal opens, blinks, and closes again). I tried a system update to see if that would help, but no dice.

Now, when I try to launch Apex Legends (a game which I play all the time), I see EAC loading extremely slowly, then it goes away, but the game never launches (though Steam still shows the title as running).

Is anyone else having issues right now (with an up to date system)? Has anyone else experienced this before?

Edit: Decided to format my OS drive and move to Fedora. Using the same steam library, both games are now working. Clearly some package ended up misconfigured, but I have no idea what or why.
