I want to make an analogy with cars.

Many people think that driving fast and being rude makes them good drivers because they can control their cars and possibly display how good their reaction time is. Like F1 drivers.

A good driver actually follows the rules, prioritize other people safety. But they look slow? They are even perceived as an obstacle.

Currently following the rules is seen as weak and unsuccessful for some reason.

Financial success should prpbably be measured as how good you are with your budget, paying your taxes... Etc. Dare I say employee retention if you are a business owner.

Instead it is measured with possibly the worse data point, total value of assets.

Honestly going back with my analogy it's as if we measured how good of a driver you are based on how fast you go from A to B while ignoring everything else.

    I installed Linux Mint Cinnamom.

    I'm am hard stuck finding any kind of way of making wine useful. It seems every single attemp of using wine just failed.

    I have tried both 32 and 64, changing settings with winetrick to windows 10 and installed required DLL for each of the following apps.

    TrackIR Software (I can install the sofware but the driver of the camera just won't install, I also tried a linix alternative Linuxtrack but I can't install webqt as I believe it's only for AMD and I have an NVIDIA)

    iCUE (Needed for corsair mouse otherwise I have no other way of changing it's settings)

    MSI Afterburner (I need something to limit my GPU temp)

    Vortex (this one seems like it would be easy but the app just blinks white even after installing .net 6.0 and setting wine to windows 10)

    And lastly the Stream deck.

    I would really really appreciate any help for any of those things. That's a lot of painpoint for a first day on Linux but I'm not giving up.

    I'm not against changing distro if that's a solution. But I would really prefer avoiding VMs.

    Thank you for reading up to here!
