Proton 5.13-6 RC Continues With More Cyberpunk 2077 Fixes For Linux - Phoronix[3] Valve and their partners at CodeWeavers have put out a release candidate for Proton 5.13-6 as the latest version of their Wine-based software for running Windows games on Linux via Steam Play. Ocean?s Heart: Top-Down Zelda-Like Action RPG: Review [4] Craving a Zelda-like game? Something from the 2D, pixelated era, like The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past for the SNES, or The Legend of Zelda: Link?s Awakening for the Gameboy? Look no further than Ocean?s Heart, available on Steam since January 2021, and perfectly playable on Proton. Developed by Max Mraz and published by Nordcurrent, the game practically screams Zelda, from the same blue clothing the female protagonist, Tilia, wears that Link wears in Breath of the Wild, the short blonde hair, the sword, the boots, the top-down camera setting, the bows and arrows, the boomerangs, the bombs, the hearts, the magic, the rolling on the ground. Yet, it differs enough to still be a decent game, with different weapons, different characters, a different story, and different artwork. Whether you?re a seasoned Zelda fan or completely unfamiliar with the games in the series, I think Ocean?s Heart will appeal to both audiences. If you dislike the Zelda series though? Well, you probably won?t like this either. [...] Unfortunately for us, there?s no Linux version of the game, which I would imagine be a simple thing to do, since Solarus has cross-platform support, but the good news is it runs just fine on Proton. Occasionally on my end the game crashed when ALT + Tabbing out of the game or when my Series X controller disconnected, so be sure to save the game frequently.

Technical White Paper: Running Applications Under
Technical White Paper: Running Applications Under CrossOver: An Analysis of Security Risks Running Applications Under CrossOver: An Analysis of Security Risks Wine, Viruses, and Methods of Achieving Security Overview: Wine is a Windows compatibility technology that allows a wide variety of Windows Running Windows software to run as-if-natively on Unix-based software via CrossOver operating systems like Linux and Mac OS X. From a theoretical standpoint, Wine should is, on average, much safer also enable malware and viruses to run, thereby than running them under (unfortunately) exposing Wine users to these same Windows hazards. However, CrossOver (based on Wine) also incorporates security features that bring this risk down to almost zero. This White Paper examines the reasons behind the enhanced safety that CrossOver provides. With the increasing popularity of running Windows software on Linux and Mac OS X via compatibility solutions such as Wine, VMWare, and Parallels, users have been able to enjoy a degree of computing freedom heretofore unseen. Yet with that freedom has come peril. As many VMWare and Parallels users have discovered, running applications like Outlook and IE under those PC emulation solutions also opens up their machine to the same viruses and malware they faced under Windows. Indeed, one of the first things any VMWare or Parallels customer should do upon is install a commercial anti-virus package. Failure to do so can result in a host of dire consequences for their Windows partition, just as it would if they were running a Windows PC. Not surprisingly, a question we sometimes hear is whether or not Wine exposes users to the same level of risk.

Windows Legacy Application Support Under Wine

Wine Wine offers a viable offers a viable, inexpensive alternative for keeping alternative for keeping these legacy applications functioning in perpetuity. legacy Windows apps It is a truism that the needs of customers and vendors are often at running in perpetuity. cross-purposes. Nowhere has this been more vividly demonstrated than in the forced upgrade cycles of the Microsoft Windows platform, which have completely reversed the leverage customers normally wield over their suppliers. In many cases, end-users have seen little utility in switching to newer versions of Windows, but have been left with essentially zero choice in the matter. Forced OS upgrades have, in turn, forced the migration of many legacy applications. These older Windows programs—which in many cases are still perfectly functional—must either be redeveloped for a newer Windows platform, or replaced. This places yet another cost on top of the cost of the OS upgrade. However, this cycle, which once appeared unbreakable, now seems to be weakening. For one thing, Windows is no longer as dominant as it once was on the desktop. The rise of both Mac OS X and Linux have begun eating into the monopolistic power of Microsoft to dictate these cycles. Second is the fact that users now have a realistic alternative The MS OS forced- for running their legacy apps.

Crossover Compared to Competing Emulation Solutions
CrossOver Compared to Competing Emulation Solutions CrossOver Compared to Competing Emulation Solutions CrossOver Compared to Competing Emulation Solutions Overview: Whether you’re running a Linux or Mac OS X machine, chances are you need a way to run at least some Windows applications or games that aren’t available on your platform of choice. And you have your choice of potential solutions to this problem. This page illustrates some of the key Every Windows advantages that CrossOver has in relation to the compatibility solution has other compatibility solutions. pros and cons. When presented with the need to run Windows applications on a Mac or Linux machine, you have basically three main choices: Dual-booting: running two separate operating systems on one PC, and switching between them as needed by rebooting. Applications such as Apple’s Bootcamp allow this to occur on a Mac OS X machine, for example. Running a virtual machine: Emulation products such as VMWare and Parallels allow you to install a copy of Windows within a logical partition within your native operating system. The Windows applications essentially run in a separate “box within a box.” Running Wine or CrossOver: Unlike emulation, Wine is a re-implementation of the Win32 API, allowing applications to run as if natively on the target OS. CrossOver is a commercialized version of Wine. Each solution has its advantages and disadvantages. This document is provided to help identify and evaluate key points of comparison between CodeWeavers’ CrossOver products and some of its key competitors. Technology Approach General Approach Dual-booting is exactly what it sounds like—shutting down one operating system, starting another, and dealing with the file transfer issues associated with same.

Linux on the Desktop: Catching Up, Meeting New Challenges, Moving Ahead
Published in Queue Magazine, May 2004, under the title “Desktop Linux, Where Art Thou?”. Copyright 2004, Queue Magazine. All rights reserved. Contact Queue Magazine for republication or other licensing requests. Linux on the desktop: Catching up, meeting new challenges, moving ahead Linux on the desktop has come a long way – and it’s been a roller coaster ride. At the height of the dot-com boom, around the time of Red Hat’s Initial Public Offering, people expected Linux to take off on the desktop in short. A few years later, after the stock market crash and the failure of a couple of high profile Linux companies, pundits were quick to proclaim the stillborn death of Linux on the desktop. Then a funny thing happened: the GNOME and KDE desktop environments kept getting better, Mozilla and OpenOffice.org reached their 1.0 milestones and a new batch of Linux desktop companies sprang up (Lindows, Xandros, Lycoris). Rumors of the death of Linux on the desktop had been greatly exaggerated. Over the last year, there has been a steady stream of new developments and announcements that have added to the desktop Linux drumbeat. Perhaps most importantly, big IT companies, including Novell and Sun Microsystems, have placed bets on Linux on the desktop. So will 2004 be “the year for Linux on the desktop”? This article takes stock of where the Linux desktop stands and looks at remaining obstacles to broader Linux adoption on the desktop, how Linux can meet the new challenges created by Microsoft’s plans for Longhorn, and opportunities to get ahead of the curve around collaboration-centric computing.

Using Wine offers the best of both worlds—being being able to run the able to run the applications you want on the applications you want on operating system you want. This paper discusses the operating system you Wine as a technology. want. What is Wine? Wine is a technology developed under the auspices of The Wine Project, an open-source community of developers in much the same mold as the developer community that created the Linux operating system in the first place. The Wine Project’s goal is simple—to recreate the functionality of the Windows operating system and make it available on the other Unix-based operating systems. By doing so, operating systems like Linux and Mac OS X will become fully Windows-compatible platforms, allowing their users the freedom to run not only their respective native software offerings, but Windows applications as well. In the fifteen years since the project’s inception, Wine has made remarkable strides towards achieving this overall goal. What’s Under the Hood? Technically speaking, Wine is not an emulator technology. Emulators run an actual copy of the Windows operating system within a virtual machine that is hosted by the target operating system. Wine is not a virtual machine.
