Screen Issue

Is there any fix for this discovered? It takes me like 20 quick clicks to get the game to see the input. I have not been able to play for days now. Time to unsub until it is fixed.

I’m debugging it (lightly) for the last 2 days, and it looks like the root cause is Microsoft’s Gaming Copilot and its botched system integration. Take that info with a grain of salt, of course. That’s only my current theory in the debugging effort and it may or may not be the actual root cause.

It seems like a shame CCP does not have a policy to support linux.

Once again, you’re asking for stuff CCP used to do, but no longer does.

Valve is usually ahead of the curve and has supported Linux for a long time—Counter-Strike 2 even runs natively. Carbon may never run on Linux, but it’d be great if it did.

I run Windows 10, and yet, I run into technical issues now and then. Eve seems to be more glitched than other games I have played. My Ubisoft Connect has been glitch free for a very long time now. I play a lot of my Assassin Creed games there without a hiccup.

I have used Linux but more as a business tool and less for games. For example, 99% my network browser activity is on Linux or Android. This is done to keep my email, banking, and online transfers safe. Hackers attack Windows more than Linux. I love it when the scammers call me and tell me my PC is full of the porn. I follow their Windows instructions from my Linux and act confused when it don’t work.

Play your games on Windows, do your important business on Linux.

They never did and unless the company has a Linux version client to download, they never will.

No, they used to.

Support became too much effort for the tiny minority that used it, so they stopped.

That must have been before my time. Most games will claim they run on Linux but offer Wine, Lutris, Proton etc. instead. What you get is a buggy version on Linux instead of a pure Linux executable. It is like those who expect Geforce Now to work with perfection. Google tried that and failed miserably at Stadia. That is why I would never use Geforce Now to replace my GPU.

It really depends on the state of your drivers and what other software you have installed. I’m playing AC Odyssey now and UC Connect has a severe memory leak. If I leave it on for an hour while playing the game, it fills up 64 GB of RAM.

Same, and I can’t wait for Proton to become better so I can ditch Windows completely.

I can’t wait for Microsoft to ditch Windows and join team Linux. Window 10 works for now, I know I can upgrade to 11, but why should I when everything I read tells me, 11 won’t run on my current hardware? I am hearing gossip about 12 is on its way, but by then, I will be shopping for a more modern system. Until that time, I just stick with what works.

BTW I too own the Greek version of AC, still working on beating the story. I fooled around with the web editor and it shows a lot of potential. I might make a saga of my own in future.

They won’t. My profession is programming and I follow what happens in the IT world daily. The current plans for the next version of Windows is even more advertising, spyware and AI slop. They are describing their next OS as “agentic”. Judging by the pure amount of peddling AI slop and spyware, including the recent release of Gaming Copilot, the real experience of the next OS when it comes out can be much worse than anyone is expecting.

The best bet for those who can’t fully switch to Linux are virtual machines. Run games natively in Windows, run everything else in a virtual machine on Linux.

Because Whinedoze 10 isn’t supported anymore, so no more fixes for all the stuff still wrong with it.

I think its almost certainly related to MIcrosoft’s Gamebar.

My suspicion as well. I’ve finally found the fix: Reddit - The heart of the internet

This will remove the Game Bar and any bindings. At least for me, it removed the startup delay and I no longer need multiple clicks to get the focus on the game client.
