@popcar2 yes, the ntfs problem hit me as well, as I previously commented on other occasions. Also, I didn't think that intel mobile integrated gpu's wouldn't be recognised by opengl or vulkan, but that's how it goes apparently

that's possible, ntfs and linux are known to not work very well, as you probably have seen in this thread.

@MyFairJulia wait, you can run games from ntfs drives with linux? what ntfs driver is recommended for that? is ntfs3g broken? I'm asking because each time I try to do something like that, I do get permission issues, as you say. Worse, each time windows would make a file, the linux side would come up with a permission error when trying to access it. That's why, I don't use ntfs stuff anymore at all

@theshatterstone54 @dvdnet90 yeah, those kinds of games are always reported to have issues for whatever reason

@falsem @Voytrekk because they always want to be remembered in history for something good, and they're desperately trying to make something that will eventually, through no try of their own, end up both good and ethical. Also, they want people to use their stuff more, so that they can eventually make it proprietary or something.

@BloodSlut @ShaunaTheDead hohoho, a good head start! I had to clear some environment variables from time to time as well, especially when it comes to wine stuff misinterpreting some vars I thought are only for some specific programs I use, so it's not the first time such happened to me. Glad it worked for you, also glad you worked out what env var to clear.

@ShaunaTheDead @BloodSlut of course it matters. Environment variables get passed to wine, after which other processes inherit them, simply because they are children of wine. Because wine makes them available to windows calls too, well, you get them in wine processes.
