Bingo, yes this is the same issue for what they say. I am connected through DisplayPort though on all my screens. Shame that it is not being worked on but from my testing I assume that when steam moves proton to support wayland natively it will be fixed. Thanks for the info, very interesting!!

Its one of those stylized games where i can not choose resolution, only fullscreen or borderless. And when i choose borderless the screen goes to a small 1080p window.

Thanks for the input! I tried it but no luck, the black blocks are still there and it still renders on 16:9. Thanks though!!

Yes i read that in the documentation but for some unkown reason if i omit either the lowercase or the uppercase the game won’t even start! Only the gamescope instance.

I’m running with the mesa drivers on version Mesa 24.2.0-devel. After some tinkering around it seems its a combination of things and gamescope fixes the black blocks but it still won’t render in ultrawide, so I’ll just stick with wine and lutris for now which seems to work fine.

Thanks for the help!!

I think you are correct assuming it’s an issue with proton not supporting wayland as if i try to use lutris proton still doesn’t work but wine does and so does with gamescope.

I’m trying to use gamescope now as you and the other comment have mentioned but I’m having the issue with this command, if you could help me:

gamescope -w 3440 -h 1440 -W 3440 -H 1440 %command%

It creates a window of the appropriate size but the game is still in 16:9 (Without the black blocks issue, which is already a win, but i’d prefer it to be ultrawide too).

Thanks for the help!!

EDIT: Just tried it with Lutris but it seems to also not work even with their setup on proton. So it might be a them thing. For now I’ll just use lutris to play on wine directly.

A colleague at work said he was running a Raspberry Pi but in the end had to move to a more powerful system because he needed more power. AFAIK he’s use case is lighter than what i plan so i thought it wasn’t a viable solution. What you describe sounds very nice, especially because of the price of the Pi.

Would love to hear more people’s experiences with this setup.

Thank you for the comprehensive answer! I can see that storage is going to be a big issue here for all the media, I’ve been recommended in this thread to go for a NAS but their low RAM/high cost plus having to use their proprietary software is holding me back. Is a mini PC attached to a HDD enclosure a good solution? Won’t the USB speed be too slow or that isn’t an issue for a media server and the other utilities (I’m more focused on the media server as I am assuming that is the more taxing use case)

My worries with a NAS is their very small RAM (on NAS of reasonable price). When running several docker containers i fear that might be an issue if suddenly several *arr are downloading, pihole, tailgate… all running at the same time might mean that the NAS with 1GB (and t these are already expensive, most I’ve seen more on my budget are half of that) of memory might not be enough (i think).

it means you’ve already read the post i think

for me a reliable one is EZTV. Can’t give you the domain name cause it changes every now and then but i think now its .re

is he in a microwave? or are we??

We’ve done out own Reddit, time to do our own search engine!!! /s

a guide to compiler interfaces i think it says in black at the bottom. My japanese is very rusty. On top of LLVM it says something about understanding something with fox-san, the MC i guess.

I remember seeing many books some time ago that explained different topics in this manga style. I wonder where they went and if they were actually useful.

finally will be able to try sea of stars! i’ve been hearing great things about it but the demo was only available on switch until now!!

Oh man i loved the ascent. For a top-down game it is suuuper immersive and i absolutely loved it. Not long ago i saw that they came out with a story DLC and i cant wait to get back into it!!!

The soundtrack is… oh my god so good!! Even after all these years I still listen to it and it makes me remember how the show made me feel and its fantastic!!

Wow these are very nice!! They do definitely have a certain feel to them, cant wait to find some free time to look at them, thanks!!

I’m speechless i don’t even like star wars and I absolutely loved this!! I cant wait to playt this next year. And the aspect ratio of the gameplay was a joy to behold on my ADWF, just amaxing.

I wouldn’t say that a traffic accident without any casualties or injured which only causes commuter delays is “way more important” that a mass shooting where potentially there could be tens of victims no?

Also, still with the effect that you mention it seems like a minor-mid level news that, again, it probably doesn’t even affect the whole country. I still don’t see it as something that should be in worldnews.
