  • 18:41, 25 October 2022 Aragorn talk contribs created page Troubleshooting (Created page with "Your game doesn't work? Here is a list of things to try: * Try another wine version. Wine-GE often works. Other options are Wine-TKG, and Caffe. (For Steam: another Proton version, for example Proton-GE). Using older versions can also help. * Search the internet for a solution (for example with SearXNG, duckduckgo, etc.). Also look in this wiki. * Try fiddling with options.

This can be beneficial if your game doesn't play nicely with your desktop, for example if it doesn't catch your mouse, or if it breaks when loosing focus. You can use Gamescope for downsampling. For example, use <code>gamescope -w 3840 -h 2160 --</code> as command prefix, to downscale from 4k. If you use it in Lutris, set <code>3840x2160</code> as resolution. === Setup === Run <code>sudo setcap 'CAP_SYS_NICE=eip' `whic...") Tag: Visual edit

Think of the differences between Windows 7, Vista, 8, 10, 11. That's the ''Desktop Environment'' (''DE''). The good thing on Linux is, that you have large choice about what to use.

Our last step is to try [https://appdb.winehq.org/ Wine]. Wine is a compatibility layer that tries to translate Window Binaries (.exe) calls into Linux calls.

This page is not about "hardware that can work", but about "hardware that is recommended to buy". Nvidia is not flawless, and just over all not well integrated.
