Lutris Wine

This project allows you to easily run your favorite applications and games for Windows on almost any Linux x86_64 distribution using a specially configured Wine/Proton and RunImage container.

Requirements:

• Supported architectures x86_64
• The minimum recommended Linux kernel version is 4.18+ with support for user namespaces, but 5.0+ would be better.
• FUSE (but not necessarily, because it is possible to work in unpacked form without FUSE mounting)
• Driver for your graphics card (In most cases, Mesa will be enough, but not for Nvidia xD)
• Some kind of desktop environment (but not necessarily, since if desired, you can install the desktop directly into the RunImage container)

Installation:

curl -sL lwrap.github.io|bash

• or with wget:

wget -qO - lwrap.github.io|bash

Usage:

• The launch of your Windows games and applications is carried out from your file manager or from the built-in LW file manager or from the application menu when creating a shortcut for the EXE

Terminal usage:
