Quoting: LeopardHe is all against to Linux gaming entirely , only he doesn't know about it.You need to learn how to engage in proper discussions instead of trolling. Your level of discussion is the later, so in most of cases it's a waste of time for everybody who reads the thread.

Quoting: silmethIf the Wine build supports Vulkan, of course. For some reason I couldn’t get Vulkan working on Ubuntu using wine-devel or wine-staging from Wine’s Ubuntu repos. On the other hand Wine 3.4 downloaded from Lutris runners [External Link] has no problems with Vulkan demos and DXVK.It's possible they built Wine without libvulkan-dev installed, so it got disabled.

Quoting: LeopardI still can't believe so much hostility towards Valve.Until they did that, Steamworks was a very practical lock-in. Why would you expect anyone praise such things?

Quoting: LeopardWhen you use your monitor with dvi to vga adaptor or a similar one ; it won't be able to detect your monitor res. ( Windows detects it correctly btw )Good luck with that. I saw enough horror stories with monitor detection on Windows, when you use analog ones (VGA). If you want to save your sanity, don't use VGA to begin with.
Quoting: LeopardIf you have a Realtek wi fi chip , welcome to the world of terminal.Realtek chips are quite poor in general, even on Windows. Use Intel.
Quoting: LeopardScreen tearings everywhere?Sure, don't use blobs (hello Nvidia users). Problem solved.
Quoting: LeopardYou have to configure your gaming periphals?Quite a minority case, most don't have any such peripherals. And gamers who have, are ready to configure them as needed. Gaming on Linux is a special case, we were talking about average Joe, and that doesn't mean gamers.

For most cases you don't need that. Linux works out of the box for the "average Joe".

Quoting: LeopardWindows is there today , strongest. Why? Because of it's apps.Nope, you missed it right there. For the vast majority of users, Windows offers nothing that Linux can't. That doesn't stop Windows from being most used. It's most used because people are programmed to use it, by PC manufacturers bundling Windows everywhere by default, and people buying what's installed. That's about it. Cases of people needing Windows only stuff that doesn't work on Linux are a minority.

Quoting: LeopardSo you're basically saying as long as you don't have to use , you're willing to feed your hated Windows market?I'm saying that as long as you are using Windows, you are feeding the Windows market. Then, if you buy recent Windows only game - you are not expressing interest in Linux version for that developer. That's why I personally avoid it. But that's not what's feeding the Windows market. Usage of Windows does.

Quoting: jensSorry, your discussed quite well till now, but this is just nonsense ;). There are valid reason for dual booting and valid reasons for wine. Both usages should be debatable without excluding one due to the other.It's not so much about reasons, as about critics who don't use Wine, but dualboot. if @Leopard doesn't - good for him.
PS: According to his profile @Leopard does not dual boot ;)
