Ok, so as the title suggests, my Laptop absolutely FREEZES!! while playing DOTA2. The background music keeps on playing but that’s it. No keyboard, no touchpad gestures nothing. And there’s no stuttering or lagging before( the thermals are good too) it just goes kaput. I thought Manjaro was meant to be a ‘gaming-friendly’ distro. Each time I’ve had to REISUB. What’s the underlying issue?
