Quoting: Comandante ÑoñardoBecause umu is just an entirely better system. It's not their fault Lutris has been slow to get support and an update out for it, they can't hold themselves back for someone else's software.Quoting: CaldathrasI don't understand why they want to replace something that already WORKS with something that doesn't works yet..Quoting: Comandante ÑoñardoCan I use it on Lutris without issues?...Not yet. Lutris is still working on implementing ULWGL. Unfortunately, GloriousEggroll stopped updating Wine-GE prematurely (IMO) so we are stuck with 8-26. ULWGL (Unified Linux Wine Game Launcher) appears to have been renamed to or nicknamed UMU launcher. You can monitor it's status at

Someone else should countinue the wine-GE project.

Quoting: XpanderAnnoying, but shouldn't this be what Borderless Windowed Mode is for in games?Games will now leave fullscreen mode when the game window loses focus.Hopefully we will get the option to disable that new behaviour.
This is closer to Windows behaviour and fixes various issues with games hanging on some setups. (PR #2675)
That basically kills the dual-monitor and workspace usage for me. Having to do one more click to bring the game up after focus loss. At least there was hope per discussions on the discord that there might be an option for this in the future to bring old method back again.
Cant have nice things because windows behaviour i guess :(

Quoting: MohandevirEagerly waiting for the stable release. I'm not really familiar with these release cycles, but am I being "delusional" to think it might be soon?It should be soon, since they're in the release candidate stage yes.

Quoting: satorideponInterestingly, it seems they do not work with original Waydroid developers, looking at these [1 [External Link]] [2 [External Link]] GitHub pull requests (also this [External Link], maybe they just can't tell though), and instead developing their own fork?Well, nothing has been confirmed, but like with DXVK people wouldn’t admit it until the Valve announcements remember. All very hush as usual for Valve stuff, but it’s clearly pretty obvious now Valve are involved.

There may be some hope on the horizon after all
