If it's stability you are after I'd avoid slowroll until it's no longer experimental.

Help using Mangohud / Gamemode with Flatpak version of Lutris and Steam in c/linux_gaming

[–] million 1 points 11 months ago

Here is my understanding of this now I've got everything working on my Flatpak install of Steam:

MangoHud

Mangohud is installed as another Flatpak, org.freedesktop.Platform.VulkanLayer.MangoHud
I don't think I ever installed this manually, I believe the Steam Flatpak will bring this as a dependency
To tell a game to use MangoHud you add MANGOHUD=1 %command% to the Steam launch options of the game
Alternatively you can use like Flatseal to add MANGOHUD=1 to the Steam FlatPak to get this working in every game by default

Gamemode

You need to install the Gamemode daemon, gamemoded as a system package
Once that is installed you can add gamemoderun %command% to the launch options to run the game with Gamemode enabled

Yeah going to mine as well. I am both excited and a little scared. Some folks have reports some serious issues when upgrading so let's hope the Tumbleweed folks sit on this until they feel it's ready for general availability.

You know, I am fine with it. One of the reasons I am using Tumbleweed is for the additional testing they do, so if they aren’t cool with shipping it yet I can wait.

How up to date is the Steam Flatpak? in c/linux_gaming

[–] million 1 points 11 months ago

The Flatpak is probably going to move faster but the trade off is it is harder to configure some things until you get a handle on Flatpaks.

Up to you ultimately.

Great tip. It looks like the Flatpak has a newer version then even Tumbleweed, so that answers my initial question, thanks!

Thanks for the heads up. That's a shitty limitation.

Makes sense, I was wondering how that worked when I saw some of those in my list. Is that another layer to the flatpak, like a Docker layer or are Flatpaks allowed out of their sandboxes to talk to other Flatpaks?
