Guide: Installing Sticky Apps :: Monitor Ping on Linux with Steam Proton

This guide describes how to use Steam Proton to play and run Windows games on your Linux computer. Some games may not work or may break because Steam Proton is still at a very early stage.


1. Activating Steam Proton for Linux:
Proton is integrated into the Steam Client with "Steam Play." To activate proton, go into your steam client and click on Steam in the upper right corner. Then click on settings to open a new window. From here, click on the Steam Play button at the bottom of the panel. Click "Enable Steam Play for Supported Titles."

Alternatively: Go to Steam > Settings > Steam Play and turn on the "Enable Steam Play for Supported Titles" option.

Valve has tested and fixed some Steam titles and you will now be able to play most of them. However, if you want to go further and play titles that even Valve hasn't tested, toggle the "Enable Steam Play for all titles" option.


2. Choose a version
You should use the Steam Proton version recommended by Steam: 3.7-8. This is the most stable version of Steam Proton at the moment.


3. Restart your Steam
After you have successfully activated Steam Proton, click "OK" and Steam will ask you to restart it for the changes to take effect. Restart it. Your computer will now play all of steam's whitelisted games seamlessly.


4. Launch Stardew Valley on Linux:
Before you can use Steam Proton, you must first download the Stardew Valley Windows game from Steam. When you download Stardew Valley for the first time, you will notice that the download size is slightly larger than the size of the game.
This happens because Steam will download your chosen Steam Proton version with this game as well. After the download is complete, simply click the "Play" button.

What is Sticky Apps :: Monitor Ping? Features and Description

Sticky Apps :: Monitor Ping is an application to view your network connection to multiple systems on the Internet. This is a great way to monitor your PING/network to game servers, video streaming servers, or your ISP in general.


Sticky Apps :: Monitor Ping is an application to view your network connection to multiple systems on the Internet. This is a great way to monitor your PING/network to game servers, video streaming servers, or your ISP in general. This software is titled "Sticky Apps" as each application can be stickied to your desktop, allowing for easy viewing of information.

MONITOR YOUR PING


  • Monitor your ping to various servers on the Internet
  • Change the number of destinations you monitor
  • Change colors scheme to fit your needs
  • Provide alerts if latency/ping gets too high
  • Provide alerts if packet-loss exists
  • Sticky this anywhere on your desktop
  • Export an image of your ping statistics







What is the difference between this and command prompt ping?
The built-in Windows command prompt ping is more of a real-time latency checker to a single host. This Monitor Ping application improves upon that in several ways:
  • Ping multiple locations at once with a simple click (it saves locations)
  • Has a graphical interface that you can scale in size to give an immediate, visual representation of latency
  • Can alert you if packet-loss exceeds a certain threshold
  • Can alert you if real-time latency exceeds a certain threshold
  • Provides an ongoing log-file of packet-loss and excess latency
  • Tracks packetloss in an ongoing fashion
  • Has options to enable the tracking graph size (eg, 60 seconds of history vs 60 minutes)
  • Is visually pleasing
  • Can 1-click export the graph into an image (PNG)

Won't this use up a lot of bandwidth?
Not at all! Each monitor uses approx. 32 bytes of traffic per second in/out. To put that in perspective, you can poll a server 32,000 times before it uses even 1 MB in/out. By comparison, just watching a single second (1 second) of 1080p video on Youtube uses roughly 100,000 times more bandwidth than each monitor you have running.

Why would I use this?
This is a great way to decide "Is it me?" by doing the following:

  • Set up Monitor #1 to be your router (ie, 192.168.0.1 / 10.0.0.1 or such).
  • Set up Monitor #2 to be your next-up hop of your ISP (do a tracert to determine this).
  • Set up Monitor #3 to be something typically very reliable. I suggest 8.8.8.8 or google . com
  • Set up Monitor #4 to be an online game server you typically play on.

Now let's say you're getting drops from your favorite game server, or experiencing lag. Just by looking at the Monitor Ping app, you can now confirm some very important information.

  • Is it between your PC and your router (such as bad wifi?). Well, just check Graph #1 and that will answer it. No packetloss + steady latency = not a wifi problem.
  • Is it your connection between your home and your ISP such as a cable model issue? Well, cheeck Graph #2 and that will answer it.
  • Is it your ISP backbone? Well, Graph #3 will help answer that.
  • Is it the actual game server's network? Graph #4 will help that.
This application is a great first step in determining network connectivity issues, as well as just having an overall monitor to see how things are operating.
