MangoHud disappearing is probably due to pressing F12. that's the standard button for toggling hud visibility. You can change this in the config, it's probably gonna be a new key/combination by default in the next release
Hi. Good job on the HUD but there's an issue with GRID: Autosport that the HUD will dissappears right after you start a race. if you pause, browse menus or watch FMVs the HUD will work.
@@FlightlessMango It still the same. BTW, is the HUD programed to disable itself if it's blocking a big chunk of the game's HUD? One final note: If you're using MANGOHUD_DLSYM=1 mangohud make sure to disable Feral's pre game menu or it will just display a solid white window and you can't get in the game unless you disable that command.
Linux gaming essentials: 1) Gamemode - (CPU Governor =performance, overclocking profiles, IO optimizations) 2) Fsync 3) Disable WM compositor while in game
Dirk Sesterhenn fsync is futex patch for the kernel. Basically improves performance, idk the exact details of it but I understand it's a Fast Userspace Mutex that tries to solve the small overhead when context switching from kernel space to Userspace processes.
@@dirksesterhenn2432 I'd change the Zen kernel to Liquorix kernel. It gives the most consistent frametimes in my experience. Especially for newer games through Proton
Chris: I sure love how you did the organization of the bottom of the video. Man, does this help. Isn't this new? That is incredible, then we can jump straight to part we need.
as a "new" user moving back to linux (again, since I needed windows again for gaming for many years, because i wasn't happy with the gaming compatibility) I am happy at the strides Linux/Steam has made. This is a permanent move finally for me, and I am especially enjoying Pop OS. I appreciate your videos in helping those of us who held out on all our windows systems, because of gaming, finally make the switch! Linux is almost there in the gaming department....and now I check for compatibility before clicking that buy button. It still doesn't work as well on my laptop for gaming (ark ran better on my laptop, and now in linux it has micro stutters) but I am firm in this switch. Again my thanks. I have switched all my systems over.
As a new Linux user - in part inspired by this channel - I am impressed with how far Linux gaming has come. Now if I can only get Total War: Attila to run on Linux...
@@dirksesterhenn2432 it runs on steamplay, but i can't get it to recognize my video memory, so it plays only on the lowest settings. I had the same problem with Rome2, but got it squared away by editing the preferences.script file. That hasn't worked for Attila, so if you have guidance to offer, please do.
You should definitly give it a try before hand. Just install it on a flashdrive and mess around with the stuff you do on a daily. After that try some gaming if that works (running games from a flashdrive can be an issue).
Would you be interested in doing a Manjaro/Arch install of OpenRGB? No solid RGB support (or none that isn't a massive headache) seems to be one of the major hitches in showing my friends a legit Linux gaming rig. It's in the AUR but is anything but thus far, I've had no luck.
I guess both Skyrim launches happened during the same session? When the stuttering in the first run was caused by loading additional textures from disk then the same textures were already present in the file system cache when you launched Skyrim the second time (with different Proton version). So if second run was smoother then maybe it is not because of different Proton version but because of the file system cache.
For people wondering, Gamemode is installed by default in Ubuntu 20.04 (same with pop-os i think) Also is it just me or is the sync between sound and video a bit off in the video?
MSI Afterburner/Riva Tuner does same thing as MangoHUD. Are Afterburner and/or Riva Tuner Windoze only? If so, what apps - if any - do you use to OC your vid card in Linux?
Glorious Eggroll is really glorious. Stuff that doesn't even launch or gives me framerate in the single digits with the default Proton versions that come with Steam easily reach 60fps with GE.
Too bad we can not use it with Lutrix. I got Civ 6 free yesterday installed EPIC GS on Lutrix and then Civ 6, it runs for DX11 or DX12 selection though 2k launcher but when I start to play everything goes gray, with no sound, no cursor nothing.
Next video please about proper FreeSync / VariableRefresh in linux. How does it work - what conditions have to be met. If you have system with several different monitors and only one of them is freesync capable, then how to make it work on this 1 display (without unplugging your secondary displays). How to verify it is actually working? etc.
Thanks for the video. Tried to find the GloriousEggRoll proton files, could not find them. Just a github noob. Could you post the link to those programs?
1 AMD GPU has this option directly from kernel driver. You need to add something in your kernel parametre in grub menu. Then use radeon profile or editing couple of text files. There is another option called corectrl. But radeon profile is active and better. 2 Greenwithenvy is the tool for Nvidia. You need to enable coolbits and edit coolbits option to 12 to enable it. You will find video about it UA-cam.
Queued for that Debian from scratch vanilla install. Im interested to see the post install process like which software repositories for latest applications and packages we should use so we don't get stuck with very old versions.
How does Linux cope with anti-cheats and games that are being constantly patched such as Starcraft 2? I remember that I got it to work a few years ago and then some updates broke Linux compatibility.
it would be nice if MangoHUD was able to show up the watts of GPU and CPU. nvidia-smi shows that and nvtop too About CPU watts turbostat does the job. I hope the developer reads this.
After multiple attempts I was finally able to get Mango installed and running. The main reason I wanted Mango was so I could monitor the GPU temp while playing. Mango does not seem to show the GPU temp. Any ideas? Hopefully with quick, easy solutions. As an alternative, I've been using 'nvtop' in the terminal but, an in-game GPU tracking HUD would be much better. Thanks in advance. BTW, I really like your channel.
So you can run steam from the Linux OS? I was thinking of booting mint or ubuntu but I've only just debloated win 10 lol ikr! I just climbed out from under the rock haha
Is there anything that can change too settings in linux. In my laptop in Windows I had changed tpl setting to improve my laptop thermals, so I want something similar in linux, changing offset voltage (I think that's what undervolting is) did not help much, but changing tlp did. So I need that
How to remove mangohud, I once downnloaded corectrl and couldn't remove it, there was no removing command in their gitlab page, normal sudo apt-get remove did not work.
Ok I have 2 question first , How can keep the gamemoded and the mangohub in the same time? And second , I pull the command in the command steam and does't work however in lutris using openGL is work , how can get games with vulkan or drvk? If someone have the answer about that , please tell me how , I really appreciate your answer , thanks
I think hardcore PC gamers will stick with Windows but this is cool. You mentioned you have an RX 580. AMD has been known for continuing to update Windows drivers for older cards to improve their performance; squeeze every last drop of power out of them. The baked in Linux kernel drivers would not have this performance.
There are reguler driver updates for Linux too. Also I really hope Windows dominance in gaming is just temporary. Linux improved a lot in the past couple of years. Sometimes I have better gaming performance on Linux in a native Windows game than I had on Windows.
Plus, Linux won't give you a blue screen every four to six hours to say "ran into a problem must shutdown." From one update that happened a month ago...
so tell me if i'm crazy here. i got a gtx1060 mini that runs hot as hell 72up to 77 up to 80Celsius in some games like Doom Eternal in win 10 under load. Reviewers said it was normal for the card. I switched over to Linux mint and now i'm getting 62 at max and my games run just as well as on win 10.
does anyone else's games just not launch when using Proton GE releases? I have it in the correct folder and the releases shows on steam as well when selecting a Proton version.
BTW, the GEv5.1 think it was plays Dragon Quest Builders 2, just look up my username on github (awsdert), same avatar, have posted some comments on the DQB2 page on proton issues, the exact version I have got it working with is in those comments
When he made his video, Firefox was sucking. Google changed youtube and Firefox got clunky on it. It had no PiP, and they removed the ability for watching in a side panel with UA-cam Enhancer. It now works great on youtube, has better PiP than Vivaldi (they made it full screen on double click recently), it has auto-scroll option in settings (something I missed since switching back to Linux). It doesn't ask me if I want to refresh after enabling a script with NoScript; it just does it. Firefox also uses less ram for tabs.
I mean, the video is a nice help... but don't compare performance with VSync enabled (you can't really tell the difference between 60 fps capped and 60 fps capped). ^^'
For some reason the MangoHUD did not work in STEAM on my Mint 19.3 with NVIDIA GTX 1080 after I installed and rebooted. Tried both recommended command line options with no luck. Anyone have a recommendation. Don't really want to uninstall and reinstall STEAM if I don't have to.
@@deeperlayer Wow! You're my first troll. Thanks for the experience. FYI, I bought the card four years ago. Saw no reason to replace it. The profanity and attitude!
MangoHud is basically MSI Afterburner+RTSS Very Lite edition... Which is a good thing. FRAPS hasn't been used in over a decade by people who wan't to monitor every aspect of their hardware in an overlay lol
@gilkesisking Yes, the Vive/Index and probably Pimax works but not WMR or Oculus headsets. While I have one of each (OG Vive with DAS, Lenovo Explorer and Oculus Quest) I am having a hard time setting up the Vive in my room regardless of OS disussions since all power sockets are on one side of the room and I'd have to always put extension cords across the floor as well as readjust at least one basestation. That's why Linux still fails for me when it comes to VR.

@@scottie_oh Eh, after two years I really don't remember. v19.3 showed some major bugs on my Intel i5-2k, though, so I reverted back to v18.3: no RAM leaking anymore, the windows CAN be finally minimized, and even if the system glitches here and there and I have occasional crashes, it runs well. I think any issue I may have with anything I do is that I'm usin' an EoL version on a 12-years-old system while using an NVidia, which seems to have adopted a "let's try to be a hassle with drivers for Linux users", so my drivers are the default ones - old, and possibly bugged. Sadly, where v19.3 has some annoying problems, v20 looks like it has been assembled by an incompetent psycho - at least on my PC. Probably that's why, though, the majority of things don't work for me: an OS that is too new for my PC; or an OS that is too old and not supported anymore. I've basically given up tinkering completely. The only thing I'd need is v18.3 kernel on, maybe, a newer version, but considered kernel apparently packs drivers and all, eh. This, though, prevents me from being a reliable source about technical feedbacks.
I wish you would use your knowledge and take a more educational route with your videos. I don't want you to tell me what's best, essential or crap, I want you to show me alternatives and tell me why they're better than what I use. A lot of us are Linux users, we're here to learn and explore new things, not get told what's best, essential or crap without explaining why. You've seen this in your vlc video.
Fps matters when you're only getting 15-20. No fps=garbage gameplay. What I don't get are the people who are obsessed with graphics, which can heavily bog down fps. I'm with Nintendo when they said gameplay over graphics.
Yeah I consider it essential as I really like looking at fps a frametimes when installing a game for the first time. If I see a bunch of frame jumps, I'll swap out the proton version or change esync settings til I get the buttery smooth performance. Just depends on what you want 😉

Anticheat work on Linux with proton 😔😔
Why vivaldi browser ?
It's Opera but not Chinese.
Personally Vivaldi is not comfortable for me so I switched to Firefox (if someone cares :-) )
Wine works fine for me :D
What? Did I miss something in the videos I didn't watch? Why does an Arch guy have a linux mint desktop in the background?! I am shocked! ;)
Because he's tutoring and many are on Mint. His main is Arch. Did you miss his video about distros don't matter?
Man if you haven't seen the linux mint for beginners videos (which are uploaded recently) then you have missed 3-4 videos.
MangoHUD appears to be a visual clone of MSI Afterburner, fwiw.
Agree.
Audio out of sync
Add in GreenWithEnvy for us nVidia scrubs that like to OC.

I wish you would use your knowledge and take a more educational route with your videos.
I don't want you to tell me what's best, essential or crap, I want you to show me alternatives and tell me why they're better than what I use.
A lot of us are Linux users, we're here to learn and explore new things, not get told what's best, essential or crap without explaining why. You've seen this in your vlc video.
Mangohud doesn't work. Useless program
wat, 4 views ????!
EDIT1 : wat, 1232 views ????!
The number 1 thing Linux users need for gaming is windows. Sorry.
Why the F would i need mangohud? Crazy people all concerned with fps.
Is my game playable on decent setting? Yes? Okay lets play.
FPS is the last thing it's useful for. It's great for problem solving, which component is the bottleneck, what temps are you getting under load, etc.
Fps matters when you're only getting 15-20. No fps=garbage gameplay. What I don't get are the people who are obsessed with graphics, which can heavily bog down fps. I'm with Nintendo when they said gameplay over graphics.
Yeah I consider it essential as I really like looking at fps a frametimes when installing a game for the first time. If I see a bunch of frame jumps, I'll swap out the proton version or change esync settings til I get the buttery smooth performance. Just depends on what you want 😉
