Official native GeForce Now linux app

Hi,

an official linux app of GeForce Now is out. It’s in a beta status yet.

Tested it on an ubuntu based distribution:

  • Linux Mint 22.3
  • Kernel: Linux 6.14.0-37-generic
  • Cinnamon 6.6.6

Steps for installation:

  • download the file “GeForceNOWSetup.bin
  • open terminal (or right mouse click on file) and make it executable “chmod +x GeForceNOWSetup.bin
  • run the installer “./GeForceNOWSetup.bin
  • a new shortcut to start the app is created in the startmenu “Nvidia GeForce Now (Flatpak)
  • (optional) check if app was installed as flatpak “flatpak list | grep -i geforce

Runs smoothly without problems. Not noticing differences in comparison with the Windows 10/11 app.

Tested with NRFTW Together update.

Have fun.
