https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/systemd/blob/f39/f/10-map-count.conf I believe if we do it should be shipped in procps; or possibly, gamemode should set that option? ** Also affects: procps (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: gamemode (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2057792 Title: Some Games are crashing linked to a vm_max_map_count too low Status in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in gamemode package in Ubuntu: New Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in procps package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Hello there, I submit this request to improve the gaming experience in ubuntu for all users. Today, Hogwarts Legacy, Star Citizen and few more games are crashing or just not starting because the vm_max_map_count is locked at 65530. If we change this value to a value > 200000, all games are working well and there is no bug linked to maps. Some others distribution like Fedora or Pop OS, have already made the change few month before. It's time to Ubuntu to makes the change also. Thanks in advance for applying this request. How to make this change : One file to modify : /etc/sysctl.conf Add this line : vm.max_map_count=2147483642 Save Reboot and enjoy Best Regards Vinceff To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/2057792/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : kernel-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
