My desktop PC runs a dual boot of Arch Linux and Windows 11 (for the few things that don't work with Linux cough Destiny 2 cough - damn it Bungie, and VR stuff). My MacBook runs a dual boot of Fedora 40 and whatever is the latest version of macOS that can run on it (its an older Intel model, Apple dropped support for it a couple of years ago - I think its running Big Sur? I hardly ever boot into macOS).

And then my Steam Deck (its effectively just another x86 PC afterall) of course uses SteamOS.

What about you, OP?

What about you, OP?

my gaming rig runs fedora and dual booting windows 11 (Fortnite and roblox dont need them often why epic why roblox corp and beamng will run poorly under proton) i also tried passing my ssd and booting it on a vm and it gave me a error

[–] russjr08@bitforged.space 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Ah gotcha, I'm sorry to hear the stuff with the VM didn't work out too well. I'm not really familiar with how that type of setup works. I have a friend who uses a looking glass setup to do this, but for me its just easier to boot into Windows on the few occasions I need it haha.

[–] Mwa@thelemmy.club 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I needed the vm bcs somtimes i dont wanna boot into windows to do stuff

[–] russjr08@bitforged.space 1 points 3 months ago (2 children)

That makes sense - it might be worth making a post on one of the various Linux communities here to see if anyone is able to help you with that sort of setup, the ones I'm aware of are:

!linux@lemmy.ml

!linux@programming.dev

!linux@lemmy.world
