Hi! Absolutely none game with Steam Proton doesn't works! But when I use Wine-GE with Lutris (or just use Wine-GE instead of Steam Proton) - everything works fine! Where's the issue may be? 🤔

OS: Devuan

...you are arguing that solving the person's issue is irrelevant.

Irrelevant to proving. Context.

...then I'm sure you'll be able to prove that by solving...

See, this is how a stubborn insecure person acts.

You, just now:

You ever tried gaming on a non systemd OS?

I do. It works.

You, 3 months ago:

I have firsthand experience with videogames made for one flavor of Linux not working on my machine due to dependency hell.

You know exactly the problem I am describing that comes along with trying to game on a non systemd OS, because you have experienced it yourself.

You get stuck in dependency hell because all the supporting software that is required for modern gaming... is a large mismatch, by default os config, with what is actually compatible with and developed for non systemd systems, and it requires a massive amount of effort to get anything into a reasonably stable and reasonably working state.

I ask you to provide your experience directly, which could genuienly help this person, and you instead want to nitpick vocabulary in a sophomoric manner so that you can feel you are more correct by virtue of 'well, ackshually'....

...and your approach to trying to solve the problem is robotic, run through standard error output log, identify error... theorize solution...

... even though you personally know that approach will be very time consuming and frustrating.

In conclusion; boy, you must be great at parties.

But if we get a fiasco - I'll try PikaOS.

I know. But I want to solve this. It will gave me some experience in Linux Administration.

In conclusion; boy, you must be great at parties.

Thanks... So I don't visits parties, and I don't sees any sense in this.

Sorry, but that issue had nothing to do with systemd.
