Hello guys! Recently re watched Das Boot (amazing film btw for those who haven’t seen it, highly recommend) and that inspired me to install my SH3 from steam. The thing is its the first time I’m going to be playing on Linux, and I’m a bit stumped on how I can install the LSH3 supermod. The instructions for the 2022 version of LSH3 state that you simply run the provided .exe (due to this being steam proton I placed it in the game directory but this doesn’t seem to be required) and run it. However I can’t seem to figure out how I can use an existing proton environment to run an executable which is not the actual steam game for that environment. Can anybody help with this? As a bonus question, because this game is quite old there are quite a few mods available for it, and the best way to activate them after downloading (on windows at least) is through JSGME. However I also cant figure out how to install that in the game directory. I have downloaded its installer but dont know how to actually run it. I have included the link to the LSH3 2022 install manual [https://www.lsh3.com/v22/dl/LSH3-EDITION-2022-INSTALLATION_EN.pdf]as well as a screenshot of my game directory with files related to this post circled. Any insight would be amazing!

As in: making Windows handhelds behave in Linux. During this little postmortem 2-piece series, we will explore just one of the challenges of adding support to Linux: the controller, and reminisce about the 2 weeks we spent with Rich from FanTheDeck in July while adding support for the Ally X. Some would say that Ally X is an iterative upgrade over its predecessor. Therefore, adding support for it should be trivial. How difficult was it to support the original Ally, anyway, if Valve just di...

... and it's much, much better than I anticipated. Proton has solved so many things. I've been dual booting on a smaller partition so far, but this has convinced me to wipe the whole disk and use it for Linux only. I might still keep a dual boot in case there is some edge case, but nothing so far has been an issue. I've been running Pop_Os! which I also have on my laptop since some year back. Previously I've also always had Arch on my laptop, but always stuck with Windows for my desktop just because of gaming issues.

There's a lot of blog posts and news articles being written right now centred around Microsoft's plans for updates to Windows 11, and potential kernel changes, with some thinking this means big things for Linux gaming.

I'm going to be building a new computer soon for myself. (Going AMD for the first time, since intel microcode issue.)
I would say I'm an expert or advanced user, as been using pcs for 25 years and set up arch and slackware in the past. I have tried many distros and would like some feedback.
I mainly use my pc for gaming. I want something customizable, KDE ish, and without bloatware. A good wiki is a plus.
I think that i may end up with arch... is it better for gaming since it's bleeding edge and isn't steamos built off it?
Side question is distro chooser accurate?
