Wait, what xrandr is doing in Proton?

What's that?

It's a tool (and protocol, I think) for managing displays in X11. It's displayed among two Windows tools in the Protonfixes changelog.

Thank you.

i wish he would still update wine-ge as well. the whole umu-launcher situation is quite a mess and it's very unreliable.

not really released yet, still in release candidates

The regressions are what bum me out about playing Windows games on Linux.

Games like Yakuza 5, where Proton worked for awhile, but then broke. So you need to manually use year-old versions for the game to run correctly.

EDIT: Funny I should mention Yakuza 5, because I just tried it on this new version, and it works again. (No wrong audio on cutscenes. No getting stuck on the initial load screen when starting the game.)
