minus-squareJohannolinkfedilinkEnglish2•7 months agoI don’t have guide I can remember,but some tips: If you don’t have Nvidia. It should be just installing Linux mint. And you are ready to go. Use the package manager to install anything and Google it if you need help. If you have Nvidia it might just work, but you need the proprietary drivers. In steam itself you want to enable proton for all games in the settings. Check the reviews on protondb for hints if sth isn’t working out of the box. Also use protonqup(for proton ge) and protontricks(for debugging some games). Ge will enable some features that steam can’t legally enabled by default.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish1•7 months agoFinally my Radeon works better out of the box than Nvidia? Amazing. Glad to hear Mint is the way to go! That’s the one I already have some very basic experience with. Is Steam necessary? I also use GOG because I prefer no DRM, but maybe that’s not possible in the same way? I’ll Google this one too. Thank you for your help! And for the confidence boost to think this might be more intuitive than I fear…
