[RESPONDED] Native Linux games freeze the system

Framework Laptop 16 Linux

It’s not really a full freeze in this traditional sense The system just hitches so bad The the desktop appears Frozen.
So far the games that I’d experienced this with are.

  • XCOM war of the chosen
  • crusader Kings 3

Interestingly, the Windows version of these games running through proton work fine. Nixos is my daily driver but I was able to reproduce the behavior on the KDE plasma spin of Fedora 40 to confirm that it wasn’t a nixos issue

Hi, can you try launching these games in command line see if any error comes up before it crashes?

Before launching the game, click on the “Advanced” tab and more sure “Radeon RX 7700S (RADV NAVI33)” is selected before clicking “Play”
