Linux Mint 22 is on 550.107.02. Just have to wait for the 550.127.5 update.

You cannot beat the original Resident Evil 2.
Looking forward to this being released and will be playing it on my ArcoLinux Gaming PC. I've finally taken the plunge and moved to Linux full time for gaming, as before relying on Windows. Just played through Uncharted 4 through Proton and can honestly say I am enjoying gaming in Linux. I poo pooed Proton when it first released and thought it would never get off the ground, but that was mainly in it's first year. Since then, with the Steam-Deck release and the amazing work done in Proton and WINE for us to be able to play PC games, from nearly on first day release, is amazing.

Reminds me of V-Rally on the PS1. Many late nights on that game. Graphics doesn't have to be perfect all the time for a game, it's if it's fun or not? 32-bit games were so much fun, came on a disc and you had the full game in your hand. No patch updates, as the Internet back then was not as popular in households as it is now. I yearn for those days back again.

The 6.5.0-14 runs out in August. I'm using Linux Mint 21.3 Xfce edition. Just upgraded using sed -i command. No doubt be updating Kernel up to 6.5.0-16 and so on like the 5.15 ones do? I've had no problem with it at all. Clem and his team know what they're doing.

Quoting: slaapliedje
The only thing missing with AppImages for me is that they don't all seem to create a proper .desktop file automatically.

I create my own, only use two AppImages. Kdenlive and Audacity. Every time an upgrade is downloaded, just change the version number in the .desktop file and of course delete the old .AppImages. I'm old school and believe in DIM (Do It Myself.) That is one of the things that Windows users, when coming over to Linux don't realise, they have to do some technical stuff themselves, to get some things done. It isn't all handed to you on a plate and it is that aspect of Linux I like. Linux teaches you at the same time as using it.

I remember when Snap Packages were just being introduced. At that time I was running Peppermint OS 8 and was helping people out on the Peppermint Forums. The amount of hate for Snap Packages, for them not installing properly, excluding a lot of features, that the original Deb package has. We sent people to Canonical to complain there and directed people to install the original Deb package, as it will take up far less resources and work straight away, along with all the features.

Then about a year later Malware was found embedded in a Snap Package. My hate for Snap Packages evolved from the amount of complaints and for the fact they run slow, take up way too many resources. Flatpaks at least actually work, AppImages are even better in my opinion, as everything is together in one single download file. Kdenlive AppImage for example is made by the KDE team, so you can run the latest version. I wish for a world without Snap Packages, that's why I run Linux Mint Xfce edition.

Nice to see they have Angelina Jolie's face back as Lara. I will be buying these games next year.

I bought this and can only use my PS4 controller. XBOX 360 controller is not calibrated properly, to move character you end up pushing the left stick diagonally. PS4 controller works fine. Disappointed with the response, as this game is a Naughty Dog masterpiece. Though like with every game these days, there are bugs on different hardware. You would think with all the tech we have, that by now Graphic cards would not have to still rely on software to run the latest games. Will they ever build a Graphic Card that has the drivers already built into it? I've been running this game in 2048x1152 resolution and it runs better than in 1440p. Though my builds are not anything to ride home with. Currently saving up to upgrade my CPU to RYZEN 7 5700X 8 Cores 16 threads, Motherboard ASUS B550 -F, Ram up to 32GB. Have been playing this game in Windows, will try it out in Linux soon.

Wish they'd also sort the font scaling out? You load Steam up and the fonts are so small, needing to squint to read anything. In Linux Mint Cinnamon it's fine as you can scale your screen, but in Xfce screen scaling is not so good.

Have reinstalled Linux Mint Xfce Una this time not Uma. Used gparted to format 2TB drive to ext4. Opened it as root in Nemo, as I don't like Thunar, not enough options. Set permissions to myself not root. The new Steam lets you choose on download of game, where you want to download and install it to, so keeping my ext4 drive open, or mounted installed Spider man and it is working like a charm. Steam has automatically set my 2TB drive as the default drive, after download of Spider man. Just got to get OBS installed and the newish Reaper plugins, that are now available for Linux. You don't activate them from OBS apparently, you can symlink your mic to the Reaper VST plugins, it'll work on the fly, whilst using OBS. Thank you all, will be posting video later on today.
