When I boot up from USB the WineSapOS, I get only the login screen and a cursor, but after that, the login screen disapears, and I see only cursor... forever.....

And I am doing all of that, because I have to break my personal hatred towards linux eventually.

And I hate so many things about the Linux, it's ridiculous.

@LukeAlmighty Have you tried PopOS? They have installer with Nvidia drivers packed in.

@matrix
🤷
Won't kill me at this point...

@matrix
But I did get one OS running already. The problem is to break the newbie wall.

@LukeAlmighty I'm not manjaro playing skyrim SE with SKSE, on a desktop, with nvidia proprietary on 3070. Why is manjaro not working for you, it's worked on all machines i've tried

@Corfiot
Immagine I am a boomer.
Because I know about Linux gaming about as much, as a boomer knows about computers.

@LukeAlmighty okay, so you need some hands on help then :/

@Corfiot
Yeah, Skyrim runs without problems through the Steam.

I will take a look at the rest soon.

@LukeAlmighty I kind of blame it on how awful and stingy nvidia is with its drivers. if you really want to play around with nvidia drivers in linux i'd bite the bullet and go with ubuntu or a gaming-based ubuntu fork. or steamOS.

@Nelenese
And that is exactly what I've been trying...

@LukeAlmighty Also >gaming laptop

@Nelenese
Yes.
Because trying to brickify your main PC first would be dumb.

@LukeAlmighty no i mean gaming laptops are just terrible in general, i wouldn't trust it to do much of anything much less install linux

@Nelenese
Yeah... Well, laptops in general are terrible. But that is the MAIN reason, why I wanted to put linux there.

Even if I fail to make it into a gaming machine, at lease, it won't get stuck on random 6h long system update. (Windows updates kan kill a laptop for a few days, if they were offline for months.)

@LukeAlmighty
On KDE Manjaro, you can easily install Nvidia drivers via the Hardware Configuration menu in the System Settings. Don't know how this would work in other desktop environments. Haven't used anything besides KDE for a while.

As for setting up various PC games, Lutris.net should be your first stop, especially if they're older games.
For Epic Games and GoG, Heroic Launcher works really well.

There are various other tips and tricks when it comes to Linux gaming, but you should start with baby steps for now.
