The forum

Hello to everyone.I will just say that i am a total noob with Linux(I am using Ubuntu 14.04 LTS)I recently switched from Windows 7 Ultimate to Linux.I installed League of Legends through PlayOnLinux briefly after(I have latest Wine version also).When I had Windows on I had never had fps drops.I used to have 60 FPS or more ALL the time with ABSOLUTELY all settings set on very high.On Linux I get FPS drops to like 30 on medium settings.I have searched in the forums and i found a guy with the same problem as me.He explained how he fixed the problem but the thing is that I am a complete newbie with Linux and I can't follow with his instructions clearly.My PC information:

OS Type:Linux

GCC Version:4.8 (x86_64-linux-gnu)

CPU Model:Intel(R) Core(TM) i3-2100 CPU @ 3.10GHz

RAM:7958 MB

Graphics Card:AMD Radeon HD 6670

Sound Card:AMD HDMI Audio Radeon HD 6000 Series

 

 

I would appreciate any kind of fix/recommendation/advice(etc..)Thanks in advance!

 

 

When I had Windows on I had never had fps drops.

It isn't Windows. ;) That comparison is moot. lol

Drivers installed? 32-bit libraries for your graphics driver? Open source or closed source driver? Debug logs? How about native games and do they run fine? Let's start with that, and see if we can narrow down what the issue is. I will be honest, this game can be very picky about running through Wine (which is not Windows, and unfortunately, doesn't always offer the same performance). Worst case, you can dual-boot. I do it all of the time, though people make it sound like a nightmare (sorry. I mispoke; if you own a Windows license, it isn't bad. Unforuntately, a dual-boot solution requires a valid license.). hahaha. :D

Okay i thought about that.I tried installing AMD drivers but it just showed a bunch of errors halfway installing.I didn't have a valid license of Windows and i know i can fix the problem without dual-booting."32-bit libraries for your graphics driver? Open source or closed source driver? Debug logs?" I have no idea what any of this means (sorry) I have really never tried a native game i guess I will try one(I am 101% sure there would be no probs)I hope by native you mean a fully tested and supposedly well running linux game.

Have you read the wiki at all? All of that is addressed there. ;)

Yes, by native, I mean a Linux game, made for Linux. You can't be 101% sure, because you don't even know if you have 3D acceleration enabled, because you don't know if you got your graphics drivers installed and configured correctly. lol. That is something that needs to be looked at first, as well as the 32-bit graphics libs for your card (check the wiki). Again, LoL can be grumpy, but once we know that your graphics libs are set up right, then if you are still having issues, there are other things to look at that may boost performance.
