Trouble with Lutris

Staudey

Sounds like something that could be fixed by this patch: https://github.com/lutris/lutris/commit/cf8e9107d0812ceec76ebd980f90c15a6e340cff

Nickman

Staudey Would I copy and paste the patch into the terminal or no? How exactly do I fix it with the patch?

Nickman

algent I tried to reinstall them, it succeeded but it still will not load up. I'll try the comment above and see if anything works. If you have any other suggestions let me know. I kind'a have to get Lutris working for a speech in class next week.

algent

Nickman You can't simply copy and paste that patch in terminal, but it has to be backported during packaging which has to be done from our maintainer. Then you will get the fixed lutris in weekly updates or install it from our unstable repo.
Honestly I don't use lutris, but I installed it to check if it is working when you started this issue and it was launched fine.
I suggest you to try to remove these folders to start over:
.config/lutris
.cache/lutris
.local/share/lutris.

Nickman

algent Well I need this to be fixed quickly because I will be giving a speech next week using it. So when I remove those folders, I would reinstall Lutris from the terminal, right?

algent

Nickman No, no need to reinstall, just launch lutris -d, hopefully it will work.

Nickman

algent Would I type sudo eopkg remove before the folder names you mentioned above? I don’t use the terminal that often.

algent

Nickman Open terminal and run:

rm -r .config/lutris .cache/lutris .local/share/lutris
No need for sudo because those are user files.

Then start lutris, and wait it to launch.

Nickman

algent Okay, I typed in that command, but nothing happened to show the files were configured, unless nothing needs to happen. Here's the text
nick@nick ~ $ rm -r .config/lutris .cache/lutris .local/share/lutris
nick@nick ~ $

Now do I type a command in the terminal, like launch litrus -d? Or something else

algent

Nickman Yes just run on terminal lutris -d.
-d stands for --debug it is needed to show debug messages.

lutris --help to see all options

Nickman

algent Here's the text that came up after I typed lutris -d. If I typed it wrong, let me know

nick@nick ~ $ lutris -d.
2021-03-17 14:51:53,235: Loading of DXVK versions failed, defaulting to locally available versions
2021-03-17 14:51:53,247: Loading of DXVK versions failed, defaulting to locally available versions
Unknown option -d.

algent

Nickman lutris -d not lutris -d. . So no dot after -d.

Nickman

algent I typed that in and a pop up came up that Lutris is starting, it’s still doing it’s thing on the terminal, albeit slower than I thought. Probably because I have so many documents on the computer.

Nickman

algent It came with a pop up that said.

Missing vulkan libraries

Lutris was unable to detect Vulkan support for the i386 architecture.
This will prevent many games and programs from working.
To install it, please use the following guide: Installing Graphics Drivers

Here’s the thing with that, before I did the updates, I was able to boot Lutris up and that pop up appeared. So why won’t it boot up now, even though it still is missing the libraries?

algent

Nickman I am sorry, I am out of ideas. I did my to my system what I told you, and lutris is launching.

Nickman

algent I guess the only thing left to do is install the graphics drivers right? Or wait for an update?

algent

Nickman Well if you haven't installed graphic drives you can do that by clicking "Hardware Drivers" in menu.
Make sure to check the 32-bit drivers because you are going to play games.

Nickman

algent Okay, let me try the suggestion from laky first.

laky

Try installing vulkan and vulkan-32bit with all the dependencies, and do a reboot. It is important that you have this, I do and it runs just fine.

Nickman

laky Okay, so what do I type in the terminal to install them?

laky

Nickman You can install them via "Software Center" which is in your menu. Or open a terminal and do sudo eopkg vulkan vulkan-32bit Good luck.
Edit:
You need to enter your password if you are going to use sudo
