Few days ago i switched back to LM 21.2 and everything worked fine. Installed Steam (native), gamemode (or was already installed), mangohud, xone, newer kernel, kisak-mesa, protonup-qt.

Everything worked fine and i played The Witcher 3, Hogwarts Legacy and WoW. Only thing i noticed was, that steam started very slow (some logs said somerhing with the webhelper).

Today i received a few updates (dont know exactly what). After this, first i noticed, that steam was starting normaly again - so i was very happy. But then my xone for wireless xbox-controller stoped working, then i noticed, that Hogwarts Legacy wont start anymore (game is starting, marked for few seconds as running and then stoped). I was able to start The Witcher but then i noticed in mangohud, that gamemode isnt running anymore too…

My game launch extensions/options are „gamemoderun mangohud %command%“ which worked before.

WoW also had some problems but few hours ago i read about this problem and a fix with Proton Experimental (latest-edge). For WoW this fixed it. So i thought trying this also for Hogwarts Legacy but nothing changed. Even without the launch options it wont start.

Can someone help please. It would be highly appreciated! This following things appeard today:

-gamemode not working (but gamemoded -t wont show errors)

-xone not working (fixed it with reinstalling it - dont know if it is still working after restart)

-Hogwarts Legacy not starting

I also can offer logs or more infos if needed (do have some things but googling that found nothing what helped and right now im on mobile)

My system

CPU: AMD Ryzen 7950X3D

GPU: AMD Radeon RX6950XT

OS: LM 21.2 Cinnamon with X11

Just going to ask this just in case: have you tried doing a full update and reboot? If you updated and have not rebooted, sometimes drivers get messed up.

Ok i found a few things.

Hogwarts Legacy wasnt able to start because an error with the automatic backup of the savegames. When starting steam from terminal it showd some errors and so i tried to move the backup folder away from there and after this it worked again

But mangohud still shows that gamemode isnt running. So i searched a bit and it seems that gamemode IS running but mangohud just shows a wrong stat. With gamemoded -s i get the info that it os running. How can i get mangohud to work again correctly?

Thanks for the help.

Unfortunately, I don't have experience with mangohud. Does Legacy work without it? And does mangohud work with other games?

[-] Makoto009@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

Mangohud on its own seems to work. Just the Gamemode Info ist shown wrong. Maybe trying to reinstall it.

But thank you very much for your Help.
