A displaceable carriage (10) and a linear guide for guiding the carriage, which includes a first guide path slideway (13, 31) and a second guide path slideway (32). To form the first slideway (13, 31), the carriage (10) includes at least one pocket (13), which slides along the first guide path part (31) and can hold lubricant under pressure to create a relieving force on the carriage (10). The second guide path part (32) includes an island-shaped surface to create a frictional force on the carriage (10). A pressure medium held in the at least one pocket (13, 14, 15) creates the relieving force, whereby the first slideway (13, 31) relieves the load on the second slideway (11a, 12a, 12b, 32).
