Hello all. I’ve recently installed Fedora 42 on my laptop, it’s a microsoft surface laptop studio so it’s running with the custom surface kernel. The feature matrix on their github page says that everything should be supported for my laptop and that’s pretty much been my experience so far but I’ve been having issues when testing out games.

The laptop has a 3050TI and is more than capable of running most of the games that I usually play on windows, and I’ve almost gotten it working on Fedora. They’ll launch and run just fine, everything even looks pretty decent graphically, but it just has really bad stuttery input lag, even in more lightweight games that I’ve tested such as balatro and stardew valley.

I’m not sure what would be causing this, as far as I’m aware I’m running the right gpu driver, I’ve double checked that they’re using the dedicated gpu rather than the integrated one with nvidia-smi, but honestly that’s about the extent of my knowledge. Does anyone have any thoughts / suggestions? It would be much appreciated.
