  • All of my TVs have never seen an internet connection. I know the Apple hate is strong, but I’ve been throwing ATVs behind them since they were first released. No ads, no BS. Just a very clean experience that has never changed. I couldn’t imagine thinking putting a Google device from the largest advertising company on the planet would be some kind of upgrade.

  • Thanks for the update. I rolled back immediately as well.

  • Weird freezing on Wolfenstein: The New Order. Only on desktop, not Steam Deck. Is Valve interested in a bug report?

  • FYI

    I don't think testing a 45 GB game is feasible off of a live distro

    Since AMD GFX works out of the box and steam is preinstalled in some live distro’s… simply mounting the hard drive with the game and then adding it to steam will work. Allows you to add the game ( steamlibrary) without having to download. Just a thought.

  • I’ll end it here.

    If you are curious I’d check out the following link and see what version of mesa you are running vs the latest. Maybe you can find more info or other experiences from users on that specific version.

    https://linuxcapable.com/how-to-upgrade-mesa-drivers-on-ubuntu-linux/

    If you want to explore a newer kernel: https://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2023/08/install-latest-kernel-new-repository/amp/

    Finally, I’m curious if you boot using USB into a live distro like Nobara, if you can manage to test the game. Or even actually install Nobara to a spare USB drive drive and test the game.

    Maybe someone else can chime in, but that’s about all I can think of. If you want to find a root cause, you have to run through and find what’s not the issue.

  • I’m not so sure it is either, but since you’re on kubuntu you don’t easily have access to newer mesa/kernel to test software.

    Troubleshooting is not about finding the issue right away, it’s about eliminating by going through all of it and trying it to narrow it down.

    Have you tried a distro with a bit more recent packages? If it also crashes then we know it’s more likely something with your hardware.

  • Have you ever tested your RAM? Like a proper memtest overnight?

    If I ever suspect hardware, I also stress test the cpu with prime95.

  • This is just a guess, but I imagine kubuntu probably has a slightly dated kernel / mesa versions. My understanding is that As much as we wouldn’t like it to be the case, there’s still issues with AMD. It’s not totally perfect and Improvements and fixes are being added to the kernel and mesa packages all the time.

    Maybe someone on AMD can confirm?

    I own the game and did not experience a crash when playing through it on my nvidia system last year.

Add this as a Steam launch option for the game:`PROTON_LOG=1 %command%`

How?

1. Right-click on the game title under the Library in Steam and select Properties.
2. Under the General tab click the Set launch options... button.
3. Enter the above code in.

Logs will be saved to $HOME/steam-$STEAM\_APP\_ID.log, overwriting any previous log with that name.

    If it’s happening on your desktop but not the steamdeck, my first assumption would be an issue with your desktop software/hardware.

    Might want to check OS logs at the same time of the crash as well.

  • Why Prometheus + Grafana over other monitoring options?

    Jump

  • prometheus and grafana … seems to be the universally accepted solution for self-hosted monitoring

    Not exactly. There are many ways to do this. Most of us just use this solution because its easily scalable, highly documented and what we are probably already doing currently at work.

    all built into one container

    It’s nice to separate data sources from the dashboards and alerting platforms. It’s scalable and extremely light weight and gives you more options.

    On top of prometheus not seeming useful on its own …

    Yeah, that’s just not always true. Maybe for you, in your use case.

    Installing a Prometheus node exporter gives you an easily accessible end point with JSON data that can be used however you like. Modularity is a good thing. Being able to swap parts in and out with other parts is a good thing.

    If you haven’t figured it out yet, there is not an exact correct answer here, use what fits your needs. While I have a dash board setup in grafana, it’s not my main use case. Since the data is available from all the node-exporters on all my hardware, I wrote up my own alerting scripts and automations using python.

    That’s the beauty of modularity and standards when self hosting.
