Is it a coincidence, or something else is going on, but very few if any racing games for Linux come out DRM-free. I don't think any of the major titles listed above were released on GOG, itch.io or Humble. Unless I missed some of them.

UPDATE: Correction, looks like Humble have the DRM-free version of Distance.

Quoting: scaineUnless you meant that these DEs have an inbuilt way to specify a default monitor, in which case, cool, but still not really my preference to be honest.

KDE has the primary screen setting.

Quoting: MayeulCWorked pretty well on KDE last time I tried. Except for Payday 2.

I usually drag windows to the correct monitor with alt+click if they show up on the wrong one. Some windows require the Steam overlay to be open for this to work.

Also, I think you have less trouble if your primary monitor is on on the left (which has almost never been the case for me, sadly).

If things get messed up consistently for some application, KWin offers quite flexible windows rules for that, which can assign specific window to specific screen.

Quoting: Corbenbest space game ever ;)

Sounds pretty good, but I'm also interested in something a bit less arcade-y and more story focused, but I guess that will have to wait until Star Citizen. So far Linux really lacks games like Freelancer [External Link] (which had a pretty good balance of story and action).

I suspect KDE offers a better experience for it by now.

Quoting: ShmerlVirtual heap allocation is now fixed, so need for the related staging patch for TW3.

What is better. use wine development with patches or wine-stagging for the witcher3? thank you!!

I'd suggest to use regular wine with minimal patches required for the game. Some reported, that full staging makes performance actually worse. But that was a while ago. You can compare for yourself, and choose what performs better.

Quoting: CorbenYep, I was referring to Ashes of Singularity. Their thread [External Link] has now 61 pages :O. Was it enough?

I think it was, if I remember correctly. But I didn't follow it closely.
