7950X3D second CCD is not completely inactive during games
Linux is configurable. If you don't want it to freeze up, configure it so it wont https://github.com/zen-kernel/zen-kernel

Custom Kernel Code Reviews? (Liquorix, Xanmod, Zen, etc. and supply chain attacks)
What do you mean fingers in the pie? And for liquorix the four people are only the ones involved in the packaging, you'll notice that they just include one huge monolithic patch here https://github.com/damentz/liquorix-package/tree/6.1/master/linux-liquorix/debian/patches/zen and to see what is inside that and whose fingers are in there you need to look into https://github.com/zen-kernel/zen-kernel and you have exactly the same situation as with xanmod with your 13k contributors.
- If your system is installed on dm-crypt and becomes unresponsive when writing/reading a lot of data (like installing Steam games) try disabling dm-crypt workqueues.

Lenovo IdeaPad - regression introduced in kernel 5.19.10 still exists despite fix being included in 6.1
It seems like the zen kernel "doesn't use" the same version as the upstream kernel (default). I think for now it is still on 6.0.12: https://github.com/zen-kernel/zen-kernel

The flashing screen bug seems to be fixed with the 5.19.13 kernel
Officially supported kernels Community support on forum and bug reporting is available for officially supported kernels. Stable — Vanilla Linux kernel and modules, with a few patches applied. https://www.kernel.org/ || linux Hardened — A security-focused Linux kernel applying a set of hardening patches to mitigate kernel and userspace exploits. It also enables more upstream kernel hardening features than linux. https://github.com/anthraxx/linux-hardened || linux-hardened Longterm — Long-term support (LTS) Linux kernel and modules. https://www.kernel.org/ || linux-lts Zen Kernel — Result of a collaborative effort of kernel hackers to provide the best Linux kernel possible for everyday systems. Some more details can be found on https://liquorix.net (which provides kernel binaries based on Zen for Debian). https://github.com/zen-kernel/zen-kernel || linux-zen

How can I get ZEN kernel on Void?
linux5.18-zen $: cd patches patches $: wget https://github.com/zen-kernel/zen-kernel/releases/download/v5.18.11-zen1/v5.18.11-zen1.patch.xz patches $: xz -d v5.18.11-zen1.patch.xz

Is there any database for optimal game settings like the geforce experience?
@OP So yeah on Linux we don't have NVE which i'm kinda glad about for various reasons. But we have gamemode (sorry for the ArchWiki entry on it) and custom kernels like Zen. If you opt to install the Zen Kernel ALWAYS keep a regular Kernel as backup, just in case.

nvme SSD boot time slowed down with linux 5.18
I was afraid that disabling dm-crypt workqueues caused it: https://github.com/zen-kernel/zen-kernel/issues/282

A New Era for Mixed Reality
The "Metaverse" is a complete joke, and among gamers, Valve has a way better reputation than Meta. Why would they want to dilute that brand?
They already have their own platform (Steam), OS (SteamOS), VR headset (Index), their own Windows translation layer (Proton, https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton), their own partnership with cloud gaming (Steam Cloud Play using GeForce Now , https://partner.steamgames.com/doc/features/cloudgaming), etc.
IMO: As someone with thousands of games on Steam, there's no way in hell I'd want that linked to Facebook. I think they eventually removed the requirement to have a FB account to use a Quest, but they still require a Meta account. Yuck.
This reeks of Facebook recognizing the Metaverse as the failure that it was and opening it up because it's no longer relevant...

NTFS messes up
Did you mount it with the correct flags?

How do I use multiple hard drives on Kubuntu for steam?
there is a hack to try and use your existing windows game install from an NTFS drive, but i don't recommend it as steam will try to save file names that are not allowed on NTFS...plus ext4 is faster.

Game crashes within 10 seconds of launching unless I reinstall from scratch
From a quick search, here's what I found. It looks like you're encountering some common issues that can occur with games running on Linux through Proton, especially with the recent updates to games like Satisfactory that might affect compatibility. The log entries you're seeing related to D3DCompile2 failing to compile shader and the issues with Ternary operator and LinearToSrgbBranching not being defined, suggest that there's a problem with shader compilation. This can often be related to the version of Proton or the graphics drivers you are using. Some users have reported that the game does launch with the -vulkan option but with graphical glitches and lower performance, which indicates that the Vulkan renderer is working but possibly not optimally on your setup. From the discussions in the community, users have suggested ensuring that the latest drivers for your graphics card are installed and, if using an Intel GPU, that the Mesa drivers are up to date since Intel XeSS references were found in the logs. If you're using NVIDIA graphics, make sure you have the latest drivers and possibly set the PROTON_ENABLE_NVAPI=1 %command% to enable DLSS if you're under Vulkan. If you're using an Optimus laptop with both Intel and NVIDIA GPUs, make sure your Optimus setup is correctly configured. Some users have found success by specifying DXVK_FILTER_DEVICE_NAMES=GeForce to force the game to use the NVIDIA GPU. It's also worth noting that if you're encountering issues with DirectX 11, you might want to try forcing the game to use DirectX 10 if possible or look into DXVK configurations that could resolve compatibility issues. Lastly, if none of these solutions work, you could try running a trace with apitrace to gather more detailed logs that might point to the specific issue. If you're still stuck, it would be a good idea to report the issue to the Proton GitHub page or seek further assistance in the game's community forums where others might have encountered and solved similar issues. For more information and to find others who might have resolved similar issues, check out the community discussions on GitHub, Steam Community, and the DXVK GitHub page.
