 Sandro 🐧 | Then we need to stop replacing the openrgb in the plugins as otherwise the plugin ABI is broken and just crashed on load | 09:54:40 |
 Atemu | I'm not so sure we should be doing this. Have you talked to upstream? | 10:04:36 |
 K900 | Upstream generally doesn't seem to care about distros | 10:05:27 |
 magic_rb | Then we shouldnt care about upstream /s | 10:17:18 |
|  Makuru 📞(WAAF / 4850) changed their display name from Makuru to Makuru 📞(WAAF / 4850). | 10:29:34 |
| Atemu | Please at the very least explain our situation to them and ask for their input before doing anything downstream. If they don't answer, we can still do it but let's not create conflict when we could potentially trivially avoid it. | 10:31:27 |
|  pentane changed their display name from pentane ⭔ to pentane (DECT CYPT/2978). | 11:23:11 |
| Sandro 🐧 | My hardware is only supported since a few months but they didn't do a release since 2 years or so | 19:57:22 |

 viq | Ha, looks like SDL2-compat doesn't like what steam Dwarf Fortress is doing with it

| misha | Hi all. I have been out of the gaming loop for a long time, and I just had a flashback to Diablo II. So I thought why don't I try to install and play Diablo II resurrected. | 02:26:56 |
| misha | I have tried some of the set-ups I could find online, but none of them seem to work... | 02:27:16 |
| misha | Is there anyone here that has managed to successfully install battle.net on NixOS? | 02:27:29 |
| misha | If so, could you maybe help me figure it out? | 02:27:37 |
 woobilicious | misha: I use Heroic, and point it to proton provided from Steam, it seems to work pretty well for managing prefixes for non-steam games. And it's sort of less ugly than just adding the launcher to Steam at trying to get it to work that way. | 03:19:22 |
|  @normalcea:matrix.org left the room. | 03:42:24 |
| misha | Thanks. | 04:12:07 |
| misha | I tried to install Heroic and steam, but I feel I'm punching a bit above my weight. | 04:12:33 |
| misha | Do you have config files to share? | 04:12:42 |
| misha | My general conclusion after a full night trying to get battle.net working: "it's still quite hard to get games working on Linux 😪". | 04:13:48 |

| woobilicious | Oh you don't already have Steam? might not be the best solution for you then misha as you need an account and Steam only downloads proton as a depedency of games, if you have no games, you get no proton IIRC | 04:52:23 |
 QuadRadical (Ping) | not most games, its really easy to use heroic for epic, gog, amazon, and zoom games | 04:53:27 |
| QuadRadical (Ping) | and steam also works perfectly | 04:53:38 |
