  • I've already tried PEAP (didn't work), but I swear Linux Lite had a security option for EAP (which did work).

  • (SOLVED) Games flickering despite running fine on Windows
  • It's not an Nvidia problem (no discrete gpu, already checked both Windows and Linux)

    Edit: Somehow missed your edit, oops

    Also I might try X11, just to see if anything changes.

  • (SOLVED) Games flickering despite running fine on Windows
  • All that seems to do is force the game into windowed mode and cause heavy artifacting (using gamescope -f doesn't show the game at all, but it still seems to be running in the background).

  • (SOLVED) Games flickering despite running fine on Windows
  • Ah, so the issue isn't VRR then.

  • (SOLVED) Games flickering despite running fine on Windows
  • Yea, had to live-boot and figure out where Fedora stores the root filesystem so I could chroot in and uninstall the drivers from there.

  • (SOLVED) Games flickering despite running fine on Windows
  • How do I disable that? KDE's settings doesn't seem to have anything about VRR (searching for it leads me to the display setings, but there's nothing mentioning VRR there either).

    (SOLVED) Games flickering despite running fine on Windows
  • Some laptops come in different configurations so looking up specs may be confusing or misleading.

    Turns out it really is, huh.

  • (SOLVED) Games flickering despite running fine on Windows
  • The command inxi -G should list display drivers.

    inxi only seems to see the integrated graphics, weird. I'm starting to doubt that her laptop even has a discrete Nvidia card inside...

  • (SOLVED) Games flickering despite running fine on Windows
  • I followed the manual and it softborked her install :(

  • (SOLVED) Games flickering despite running fine on Windows
  • So it does! First time seeing a laptop with nvidia graphics, neat.

    Edit: is the Dell website wrong? Her laptop doesn't seem to have anything Nvidia inside it.

    I'm trying to set up a Linux install for my mom (Ultramarine KDE on Wayland), and all her (2) Steam games are flickering. I thought it was from fractional scaling, but that doesn't seem to be the case.

    Her games don't flicker on Windows, and I've already tried multiple versions of Proton. I'm not quite sure what's happening, and any help would be appreciated.

    Specs
    • OS: Ultramarine Linux KDE Edition
    • Host: Dell Inspiron 15 3511
    • CPU: Intel Core i5-1035G1
    • GPU: pretty sure it uses integrated graphics apparently it uses Nvidia? First time I've seen that, gonna have to remember that in the future. Both Linux and Windows are using integrated graphics with no sign of Nvidia anywhere??

    If you need any more information, please ask me

    Edit: other than the flickering, her games run perfectly fine.

    Edit 2: Just learned my mom's laptop model has a discrete Nvidia GPU, gonna troubleshoot that in a bit.

    Edit 3: Her laptop doesn't seem to have anything Nvidia inside, despite the fact that the Dell website says her laptop should, weird...

    > > We met project lead David "Fossfreedom" Mohammed and packaging guru Sam Lane from the Ubuntu Budgie team in Rīga, and they passed on news of a rift – and indeed possible divorce – between Budgie and Enlightenment… and it's caused by Wayland. > > > While Enlightenment does have some Wayland support, in the project's own words this is "still considered experimental and not for regular end users." > > > Thus, the Budgie team has been evaluating options to move forward. XFCE are doing some really great work in this area with libxfce4windowing – a compatibility layer bridging Wayland and X11, allowing the move in a logical direction without needing a big-bang approach. To date, most of the current codebase has already been reworked and is ready for a Wayland-only approach without impacting further development and enhancements. >

    > Plasma 6 looks to be shaping up quite nicely already! Some really nice quality of life style updates, and I'm quite shocked (though the reasoning makes sense) to see them moving to double-click actions by default instead of single-click.
