Quoting: Avehicle7887Also you might want to make a backup of your xorg.conf file. In my case I also had to run "Xorg -configure" to create a new one to accomodate the AMD gpu.

You should simply remove the old xorg.conf file. You don't need one for AMD or Intel.

In case you want to fiddle with options (e.g. to enable TearFree), it's better to just create a new file in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/ containing nothing but the device section for the driver.

Quoting: NanobangI love everything about Wayland, except that it doesn't play nice with Nvidia

Surely you mean you love everything about Nvidia, except that they won't play nice with Wayland? :wink:

The protocol is fine.

Quoting: tuubiSeems like they already did. According to the list of runners [External Link] on their site, there's a "lutris-5.21" version of the Wine runner available.

I was following Tanis' updates on the news channel of the discord, I might have missed that but that's great news. Linux translation layers golden age! :D

I rarely have any use for it myself, but Wine has certainly come a long way in the last few years.

The first part was such a fun little romp that this sequel has been on my wishlist for a long time already.

Quoting: Liam DaweIt's made with Java and for the Linux version, it seems to need OpenJDK 8 as it didn't work with later versions. So you can run it directly (on Arch as an example install this and lwjgl) with:

'/usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk/jre/bin/java' -jar 'forests_secret_v2_1.jar'

Same problem on Mint (and Ubuntu I suppose). The game works after installing the package openjdk-8-jre and running with:
/usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64/jre/bin/java -jar forests_secret_v2_1.jar

If you want to run it through the Itch app, just create a simple shell script containing the above launch command in the game's install directory and mark it executable. The app will pick it up automatically.

Looks pretty. The graphical style reminds me a bit of concept art shots for higher budget games. Maybe it's the blue/orange colour scheme?

Quoting: Ehvis

Quoting: tuubiI guess you never played Sierra's classic adventures. Or Grim Fandango with its awesome/awful tank controls. :)

The actual old Sierra classics certainly didn't have tank controls.

Sure. Didn't mean to imply they did.

Quoting: EhvisPress cursor key to start walking in that direction, press it again to stop walking. And with that you had to safely pass under dripping acid. :D

I had tons of fun with these games, but I sure didn't mind when Lucasarts came along with the radical idea that adventure games didn't absolutely need to have fiddly movement and a hundred different ways to die. :wink:

Quoting: dziadulewiczI only hope the game would come also mouse controlled. In a way those classic adventure games are. Moving with arrow keys feels somewhat "off" but maybe it's just me.

Quoting: The_Aquabatthey say that bioses for 450/470 won't come until December I see this as an AMD move to force you to upgrade the mobo.

Surely not. Unless they're also forcing you to upgrade your CPU before December.
