We are in a family crisis here, can any of the solutions run roblox after their botched anti cheat update?
I think so, but the solution may be convoluted. Waydroid users can spin up an Android container to run Roblox post-Wine ban: https://youtu.be/E0BLQCEU8ZI

#134Basically a free clone of CrossOver, which has used “bottles” to refer to separate Wine prefixes for 20 years. (disclaimer: I work for CodeWeavers)
I don’t work for codeweavers and will still say that this is unfairly benefiting from the existing terminology created by codeweavers. They could have literally picked any other name.

My laptop is all AMD (AMD Ryzen 6800HS) and I think people have rose-colored glasses of the AMD situation. I certainly prefer it for many reasons: it's driver stack is open source, it has full DRI2 support, it works with Wayland, etc. That being said, it has plenty of it's own problems and I've run into many of them with Proton/Wine. I would dare say, more than my Nvidia laptop did (though, this was before Steam Deck…
It's not just on Linux though. My wife and I had literally identical setups with the one difference being the video card. I had an AMD card, she a NVidia. And the compatibility issues are real. For a specific example, Nvidia cards and Grim Dawn just don't (or didn't at least) get along, even on Windows - with about a zillion threads of such in the Steam forums for it, indicating it wasn't just e.g. a hardware failure…

#136Just use Lutris. It can fetch various flavours of wine and manage your bottles. https://lutris.net/
On one hand, this is also what I use, and it kind of works. On the other hand... Wine and NVidia seem to not like each other... at all. Every game will require tinkering with Wine and a bunch of things that are supposed to wortk with various NVidia drivers and video adapters. And there's non-zero chance that it simply won't work. Or won't work with your display manager / desktop manager / monitor connection etc. For…
In wine for arcdps to work, a dll-override is needed somewhere in the wine settings in some really weird place.

#137Cool, but after reading "All the gaming platforms you already know, right here" and searching for Xbox Game Pass or Forza Horizon and finding nothing, I gave up.
I have found that most open source projects like this tend to oversell and underdeliver.

#139Can this run MS Teams is my question?

No, MS Teams for Linux launched in 2019 and unlaunched a few months ago. All we get is a flakey PWA now on Linux. https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/microsoft-teams-blog/... https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/microsoft-teams/end-o... Bing Chat is also crashing in Firefox on Linux when I go to use it, just the tab itself crashes :c Microsoft is coming full circle with their most recent embrace, extend, extingu…
Bummer! That sucks as a freelancer with customers frequently relying on MS out of laziness. OTOH, at this point it's just another nail in the coffin for the Linux desktop that ceased to be usable anyway, even for work supported by the few age-old apps it has. Sadly, I can't even say I'm surprised, with Linuxers busy for well over a decade now to dutifully and sheepishly bring their workloads to "the cloud" and Chrome…
Not sure what nail you are talking about.
