Hi everyone, I hope you are all well.
My question is, what are the requirements to play on Salix? I work too much and want to relax. I used to play a lot on spyware windows, but I just downloaded and launched it there.
I have downloaded Wine from Alien (downloaded from slackbuilds has some problem, it gives an error), and also Lutris. I downloaded a game (not a new one, a very old Need For Speed), but I can't do anything with it, I run the "Setup.exe" file with Wine, but it gives an error, and I can't touch Lutris.
I don't mean new games, but retro and classics like older versions of Need For Speed, etc.
PlayonLinux would be a good alternative, but there it complains about Wine, some GPL Error if I remember correctly. I don't know how to install the drivers (AMD integrated GPU), I'm stupid for that.
Can you help me with instructions if possible? Because I don't know how to do this and I'm in the dark. I was thinking about systems like Nobara, but on Salix everything is doable I think, and I hate systemd distributions anyway.
So I should install Wine and the graphics drivers. Can you help me with this?
Thanks in advance, and have a nice day!
Playing On Salix - How?
Re: Playing On Salix - How?
Hi!
I installed PlayonLinux with all its components, so it works. But whatever I do in it, I keep getting the following error in the program -
Code: Select all
Error in POL_Wine
Wine seems to have crashed
If your program is running, just ignore this message
Code: Select all
PlayOnLinux is unable to find 32bits OpenGL libraries.
You might encounter problem with your games

Try the flatpak:

Wine needs 32bit libraries, which are not available in a 64bit installation. You could install multilib, but really, don't do that.

I have installed PlayOnLinux without problems, the problem I think is with Wine. When I typegapan wrote: ↑22. Jul 2023, 20:56 Try the flatpak:

Re: Playing On Salix - How?
Wine should be available through the playonlinux flatpak, you won't find available by its own. So launching stuff from within playonlinux should work.
