  • I think you are correct assuming it’s an issue with proton not supporting wayland as if i try to use lutris proton still doesn’t work but wine does and so does with gamescope.

    I’m trying to use gamescope now as you and the other comment have mentioned but I’m having the issue with this command, if you could help me:

    gamescope -w 3440 -h 1440 -W 3440 -H 1440 %command%

    It creates a window of the appropriate size but the game is still in 16:9 (Without the black blocks issue, which is already a win, but i’d prefer it to be ultrawide too).

    Thanks for the help!!

    EDIT: Just tried it with Lutris but it seems to also not work even with their setup on proton. So it might be a them thing. For now I’ll just use lutris to play on wine directly.


















  • Thank you for the comprehensive answer! I can see that storage is going to be a big issue here for all the media, I’ve been recommended in this thread to go for a NAS but their low RAM/high cost plus having to use their proprietary software is holding me back. Is a mini PC attached to a HDD enclosure a good solution? Won’t the USB speed be too slow or that isn’t an issue for a media server and the other utilities (I’m more focused on the media server as I am assuming that is the more taxing use case)
