BEST LIGHTWEIGHT LINUX DISTRO 2016 SOFTWARE
If you want the bleeding edge distro with all the latest software and not have to add PPAs or look on the web for things, try Manjaro. If you do not want the bleeding edge in everything and want a low mantainance system and are okay with GNOME(although it can be changed later) and have a nVidia card, try Pop OS or MX Linux advanced hardware support edition. The best distro for you depends on whether you want rolling release or a standard release model? Also, which Desktop Environment you prefer? Do you have a nVidia card or AMD card? There is no such thing as a perfect distro, there is only a distro that suits you the best. Even Badlion, a Minecraft PVP client that used to only work on Windows, has confirmed they are working on Linux compatibility! If you're patient enough, the games you want will most likely eventually get Linux support.Ĭheck gaming compatibility lists in ProtonDB and. Whatever the case, if all else fails, just wait a little bit, because Linux is starting to see a huge rise in popularity, and a lot of developers are starting to work on programs and applications for Linux. If that doesn't work either, you can try using Lutris, which allows you to run Windows games on a Linux OS by using over-the-cloud conversions (I don't know exactly how they do that, but it sometimes works), however, sometimes for me it's a bit unreliable due to some games not running properly, but that may be because I did something wrong, since that was when I just got into Linux. I would say probably Ubuntu or Debian, and if the game you want doesn't natively support Linux, you can probably find a user-created port of it somewhere on GitHub (those guys know everything). Is this possible?Įdit: With a few exceptions of games that don't have a launcher attached to them like itch.io games, all of my games are attached to either Steam or GOG.

And if this Wi-Fi tomfoolery happens again, it would be really cool to download and install using Linux, then play using Windows. Linux distro as my main OS and Windows for games that do not work with Linux. Something that I would also like to do, if possible, is to use both Windows and Linux of the same computer. I could back it up to my secondary drive, but that's something I would like to avoid is possible. I want all of my games to be playable in some tolerable way, since I paid for them and wasting even the smallest amount of money is not something I like doing.Īnother concern I have is whether I'll have to wipe my boot drive in order to install it. I own many games both old and new, like Prey, UItimas 1-6, Max Payne 1 and 2, Doom 2016, Arx Fatalis, Skyrim, New Vegas, Half-Life, KoToR, Alien vs Predator 2000, and MANY more, most of which are not installed. The main reason I haven't already switched to Linux is compatibility. I'm sick of this crap, which is why I am considering moving to Linux. So my main question is: What distro of Linux is the best for gaming? The only reason I'm able to make this post is because Windows, in all of its "divine wisdom and glory", has decided to give me back my internet access for some reason only Bill Gates knows.

The latest screw-up I've had to deal with is Windows deciding not to recognize any Wi-Fi networks after the latest update even after rolling back.

But when it screws up, it screws up hard.

Windows 10 has, generally speaking, been very nice to me.
