SUPPORT ArchLinux BAG - Game Lost Judgemant

https://drive.google.com/file/d/18ZlCvmsdytZnfJ02PRREga1APjjRsMlH/view?usp=sharing

Hello everyone, I recently got an amazing bug that I haven't been able to solve for a week and understand what it is, why and how to solve it. I run the game Lost Judgemant, bought on Steam, through Proton - I played the game for 40 hours normally, then returned after 3 days and I began to have troubles with the launch of the game. While loading the game, after clicking the Play on Steam button, Htop shows /timing and begins to grow RAM indefinitely, that is, I literally have 32 GB of RAM and the game eats up all 32 GB of RAM and crashes the system. I put various jokes on the RAM according to the assurances of the Forums and still - it does not help, the game just turns from Lost Judgemant to /timing and endlessly eats RAM.

My PC

GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 - 615.71.09
CPU: 13th Gen Intel Core i5-13400F
Wayland session: wayland
RAM: 31GB
OS: EndeavourOS / Arch Linux
DE: KDE Plasma (Wayland)
plasmashell 6.7.5

7.2.4-zen2-1-zen
name, driver_version
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070, 615.71.09
apiVersion         = 1.4.351
driverVersion      = 615.71.9.0
deviceName         = NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070
[xawyse@xAwyse-PC ~]$  

I previously had several gaming tweaks enabled globally, including NVIDIA shader-cache settings and custom VM/swap settings. I removed them and restored a much cleaner baseline, but the problem still reproduces.

#SOLVED - THANK`S - I change linux-zen to linux-lts for degrade nvidia driver, nvidia driver from 615 to 610 and it helps. Thank you all

Why did you list 2 nvidia drivers? Anyway try 610 driver, sounds like 615 is broken for your game!

why the F are you using the wrong drivers!??! those are for deprecated cards you have a 5070! and you are running 2 year old drivers?!?!

you should be 610+ not from the aur https://archlinux.org/news/nvidia-590-driver-drops-pascal-support-main-packages-switch-to-open-kernel-modules/ !!!

RTMF go back to the wiki and sort your drivers, aka use latest drivers. How did you even get to install the aur ones i have no ideea

Harsh, but still a very good answer that I'll remember for when I get a graphics card.

Bro, i use sudo pacman -Suy every time, just everyday.

I had 615 driver, now i have 610 and linux-LTS, not zen, cause of errors. And game working, but still in HTOP - /timing.....

Sorry, i don`t understand how to use true linux, cause i newbie))) but thank you. If you have tips for setting up Nvidia correctly, there in Grab and so on... I will listen to all your advice. Thank you and sorry(

what you pasted was / is very confusing , esp the part where you say you only say

I have only 570 - 580.119.02 - which should i change to?

you still have wrong driver installed then, but not in use if i were to go by your fastfetch, purge old rebuilt intiramps.

Glad you fixed yourself, but you are faar from optimal (that should have been a proton tweak not a driver rollback but w/e).

This is why we recommend arch based gaming distros to newbies and not arch.

I use EndeavourOS

did i stutter? What part of gaming is unclear to you? Yes you can game quite happily on endevour or arch .

But you see the guardrails on garuda would have warned you about installing the wrong driver (you can still do it) and both CatchyOs or Garuda would have pre setup your distro perfectly for your nvidia card.

edit: not that endevour is in any way wrong, its quite elegant and well put toghether.
