I recently upgraded from Ubuntu 18.4 to 20.4 which worked fine except the fact that all games in Lutris using DXVK no longer run. They do run when I switch off DXVK in the Runner Configuration.
Vulkan works fine (SOTRT runs fine).
Running a game in Proton also works fine.
I am confused. Everything worked with 18.4 and Wine and Vulkan still seem to work fine.
Any Ideas?
Running with DXVK seems to end in some kind of Null-Pointer:
wine: Unhandled page fault on read access to 00000000 at address 00000000 (thread 0009), starting debugger...Unhandled exception: page fault on read access to 0x00000000 in 32-bit code (0x00000000).

But interesting. I just checked and DXVK 1.5.1 (the oldest one lutris lets me pick) works. Nothing newer.
Also:
This is true for wine version lutris-fshack-5.0.
With lutris-5.7 every version was broken.
(I did not try other wine versions)
