From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Disabling DXVK is the way to do it in Lutris. It's in the Runner Options tab for the game settings. If you create a new Wineprefix using WINEPREFIX=~/.local/share/wineprefixes/newprefix wineboot, it will use WineD3D (the D3D➜OpenGL converter) by default. It's what Wine uses for all Direct3D APIs up to Direct3D 11. DXVK is a completely separate project to Wine, but Lutris and Proton bundle it and use it by default. Lutris is completely usable without Vulkan, despite the scary warning.
