@Tersevs awesome, thanks for the explanation! I wanted something like this for a long while, especially since I usually game in weird places which are far from the computer. Also, I looked on flathub, and both apps are on there, even the server. Why would run the server as a flatpak, I don't know, but I know it's there, so yeah, gonna try this now.

@popcar2 yes, the ntfs problem hit me as well, as I previously commented on other occasions. Also, I didn't think that intel mobile integrated gpu's wouldn't be recognised by opengl or vulkan, but that's how it goes apparently
@MyFairJulia wait, you can run games from ntfs drives with linux? what ntfs driver is recommended for that? is ntfs3g broken? I'm asking because each time I try to do something like that, I do get permission issues, as you say. Worse, each time windows would make a file, the linux side would come up with a permission error when trying to access it. That's why, I don't use ntfs stuff anymore at all
@BloodSlut @ShaunaTheDead hohoho, a good head start! I had to clear some environment variables from time to time as well, especially when it comes to wine stuff misinterpreting some vars I thought are only for some specific programs I use, so it's not the first time such happened to me. Glad it worked for you, also glad you worked out what env var to clear.
@ShaunaTheDead @BloodSlut of course it matters. Environment variables get passed to wine, after which other processes inherit them, simply because they are children of wine. Because wine makes them available to windows calls too, well, you get them in wine processes.
@ShaunaTheDead @BloodSlut what do you mean? you can use different wine prefixes for different applications, so I don't quite get it. Also, outside bottles, I'm not sure you can run wine in flatpak
@ShaunaTheDead @BloodSlut yeah, I don't think that the system wide dotnet will work under wine with the windows dependencies programs want, but yeah, if it does that'll be awesome
@bionade24 @miggs597 @F04118F @JasSmith I'm a bit out of the loop here, but what was the bug actually? Did he do this on livestream?
@setInner234 @deong yes, uninstall gtk-desktop-portal-gnome if you aren't using the gnome desktop, same for the kde variant if you aren't using kde. The gtk portal is most generic, it's supposed to be for any setup which doesn't have its own portals like many, or those who only have the minimum required, those which have something to do with compositor support, for example wlroots based setups. If your desktop has a portal backend, don't use the gtk one as you may be missing in functionality, arch devs should make more specific portal backend packages conflict with the generic gtk one, but o well.
@woelkchen @Bilu47 I recommend that thing would be under the gpl, but to each their own
