Display FPS, CPU/GPU Usage While Gaming in Ubuntu 24.04 | 22.04

  • The free open-source MangoHud package allows you to add a Vulkan and OpenGL overlay for monitoring FPS, temperatures, CPU/GPU load and more while gaming.
  • Most Linux distributions include MangoHud in their system repositories.
  • To install MangoHud on Debian/Ubuntu based systems, run the following command: sudo apt install mangohud
  • To start a game with MangoHud overlay from the terminal, use the mangohud --dlsym name-of-game command.
  • To make the overlay work when launching from start menu or GNOME overview/app grid, edit the config files for the app shortcuts in the start menu (.desktop files) and replace the "Exec" value with mangohud overlay's successful command.
  • To configure the MangoHud appearance, create a configuration file under .config/MangoHud/ or a game's own directory, or install the graphical tool goverlay by running the command: sudo apt install goverlay
