Wine/Proton doesn’t even work

26 Feb 2026 - 9:30am

I tried to download wine (also I tried cachyos optimised version and staging) via package manager and via lutris, logs just say that some driver cant draw a window (i installed all depens for my card). Also I tried to launch GD (but it cant run any game\soft) on steam via proton hotfix, experimental and 9, but no one work, in a logs wine trying to write something in kernel. But in a arch Linux its worked fine

i use cachyos, and ye i tried a "wiki for gaming" but it's dont do anything. also i tried using X11 (qtile) and Wayland (Hyprland, Mangowc)

Genshin on Linux

26 Feb 2026 - 8:58am

I've been playing Genshin on linux with minimal issue for the last 7 or so months. Unfortunately, it's suddenly completely stopped launching on my computer after 6.4 released. I was originally using the Heroic launcher, and tried a couple different versions of proton with no success. I read somewhere that I should try to use the Anime Game Launcher to get it working, however it has the same problem.

Is this related to my specific computer, or is this a known problem? It also happened when 6.3 released, however it had fixed itself by this point.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

I'm using Fedora 43

Linux (cachyos) with nvidia RX5070 - works smooth, but with extra power draw.

26 Feb 2026 - 8:53am

Comparing same game (wow) with same settings, I get weird power consumption in linux, approx 20W more than in windows. Could someone give me ideas what I can change?

I had too high power draw in idle mode (without games), it was cured by disabling adaptive sync in KDE. Still in games the problem persists.

Marvel Cosmic Invasion Streamrip file

26 Feb 2026 - 6:24am

So I downloaded Marvel Cosmic via streamrip and I couldn’t for the life of me make it run on my steamdeck due to it having a game.exe and a launcher.exe. Does anyone know how I can resolve this?
