why not just use Steams wine to run your windows apps? That's what I do. Set env vars (writing from memory adjust for actual path):



[now start the game or app]

wine /path/to/game-or-app.exe

Now it won't crash because you are using Steam's Wine Magic. Happy Hacking

Just 3min. in, I'm so happy that you praise container setups now! I really enjoy Distrobox and Flatpaks.

I installed Ubuntu 24.04 LTS on my gamer PC. I installed Steam with proton experimental, Heroic and Lutris. Then I installed my games on Steam and they all worked perfectly except for Forza 5. Heroic and Lutris made my Diablo 2 and 3 possible and also Epic games. I didn't expect it to run so smooth on Linux, but that's all I did. No tinkering of any kind, all my modern games ran with no issues except the above mentioned.

Bottles is awesome. Been using it for WoW without issue

can't wait for this to be finished. I've been wanting to switch to linux for a while but I always run into strange and random issues all the time that I can't manage to fix even checking on the net

Looking forward to seeing this move forward, got everything I need more or less working on Pop OS for the moment but played with both Arch and Nobara and am not averse to rebuilding my main system to make things a bit less painful in the future.

So.... after 25 years of hoping and trying, seeing GNU/Linux moving so far into gaming is spectacular. Only had a few issues with a few games that I play and am NOT going back to windoze. Is a guy better off continuing to tune my Zorin 17 install, or moving into a Deb/Fedora/Arch distro as we move forward? Great content.

Watching a Titus stream on a specific subject before he takes a 1.5hr detour:

Community: Really? Why?
Titus: Because my brain is a wild jungle full of scary gibberish. "I'm writing a letter, I can't write a letter, why can't I write a letter? I'm wearing a green dress, I wish I was wearing my blue dress, my blue dress is at the cleaner's. The Germans wore gray, you wore blue, 'Casablanca' is such a good movie. Casablanca, the White House, Bush. Why don't I drive a hybrid car? I should really drive a hybrid car. I should really take my bicycle to work. Bicycle, unicycle, unitard. Hockey puck, rattlesnake, monkey, monkey, underpants!"

That is from a scene in Gilmore Girls (my wife loves that show).

By the way I love your detours, it's often where I learn the most from you as they are things others don't talk about as its often considered common knowledge to them. Thanks for being awesome!

1:12:00 Back in the day when I would use Windows XP the whole desktop would lag and windows would get this sketchy effect where you dragged it, it had a 'shadow' of copies of the window, and then I installed .NET Framework and voila no more lag. It's basically in the name. You need .NET SDK in order to create GUI elements in C#, so the SDK is a library while the runtime/framework is a prerequisite in order to have a functional GUI.

im high as fuck wit sum toaster strudels watchin titus tech talk video

[juhapenttila]

Hi Chris. Thank you for your videos, really nice to watch, allthoug i am not a gamer (newer been), i am Linux (Arch, these days) user. I started to use Linux back in 1998 (anyone remember Debian net-install?) beeing tired that i could not modify Win 2000 NT CD to my liking during that time (no tools back then).

[JohnCastleSmokeless]

As a Fedora 40 KDE enjoyer, I heartily welcome this script.

[thomasnuggets]

@TitusTechTalk hey man I love your videos, what are you using to draw on your screen?! I have a lenovo ideapad and the lenovo pen, I planned to use it for taking math notes(calculus sucks!) in excalidraw, but my laptop wont pair with the pen on linux so excalidraw wont let me draw since theres no click to tell it to draw!

[OmnSlash]

Love your work, Titus! so I am understanding this is still a work in progress? can't wait until there's a finished product. I've been slowly trying to migrate away from Win 11 to Fedora 40, but struggling getting certain things working. I haven't even configured Steam/gaming yet, but I attempted to get Davinci Resolve working and am still having AMD issues where it refuses to playback anything I throw into the app. Maybe you can address this in a future video? :)

3:21 As somebody who used to reinstall after futzing up paths in ~/.bashrc, I've learned it's so much easier and faster to fix things than reinstalling everything. If I can /usr/bin/nano ~/.bashrc, I can fix all my path problems myself.

[QuestionTheTruth]

Pegasus Front-End in the gaming section would be nice too. It's always nice with options. ^^

[BamsyTheSergal]

ive been having some issues with nvidia on bazzite idk if its just me or that i need to wait for next update but i have various x11 issues and wayland issues

[darkphase]

I wonder if the new youtube ads will be skippable with using a proxy like twitch ads are?

Chris
I really enjoy your content and would appreciate it if you'd put out Moore Debian content.

[johnsorensen]

Hi Chris. How about adding the "numlockx" as an option, there are some that use it on laptop.
