I don't online game so won't be testing. I'm quite happy with Liquorix kernel for music production, which has similar low latency requirements as gaming. I notice you have made 44 posts in 3 days since you joined. Almost spamming. It would be advantageous to all if you could concentrate on quality posts rather than quantity.

what is your display server? Hopefully for gaming it's x11. What's your graphics card? graphics driver? what desktop environment are you using? compositor? what are the compositors settings? Most of this is answered by comment #13. If inxi had been run from within an X session it would have provided more details, and even more if a more recent inxi version. Current is 3.3.34.

Is there any difference in a hard drive that has been GPT partitioned under a legacy boot as opposed to one GPT partitioned under a UEFI boot? I'm as certain as can be without authoritative confirmation that the answer is no. What can be an issue (very rarely) is how legacy mode handles GPT (it's a compatibility mode, not true BIOS). It does seem like I'm missing some of the things needed in a UEFI boot and that might be part of the problem... Missing what? There's actually not much to it. Anyhoo, if you're willing to consider UEFI boot, look again at my earlier suggestion about using a rE ..read more

It has been a few years since I ran Mate as my main desktop, but I have Debian 12's version in virtual machine for reference. It doesn't have any of these issues, except add-to-panel places the icon at top of screen not bottom. The buttons for open apps are on bottom, though, and work fine. The buttons for Workspace switching are there and seem to be alive, but I've never used so have no convenient way to test. If this is a new install, I suggest you start over.
