Hmm, bazzite is being “advertised” as being specifically for gaming and newcomers. With included drivers and “tweaks” to improve gaming. And the reviews I found said the same thing…

I was able to get it working by installing it in my home directory.

That makes sense, I was able to get the mods installed!

I actaully installed it.

AFAIK You can’t “run” battlenet though lutris, it needs installed for mods at least.

The “data” partition turned to actually be a windows partition, there isn’t any indication that isn’t paart of Linux that I could.

I was able to create a “games” folder under my user’s “home” folder and install battlenet (and Wow) there, So I hoping I can then copy my mods over.

To be continued…

thanks for your help

I have no idea, like any noob user I let it use the defaults, assuming they would work.

So how do I fix it. Do I need to resintall WoW and specifically choose the Data partition it created during the linux install?

This is the correct answer, while it may have more up front costs. It’ll save in the long run, especially if the company has growth potential.

Because China has always held it would start a full-scale invasion if they ever did. So everyone ignores the elephant and keeps the status quo…

While it was true for a long time, I don’t think Taiwan expects to get China back anymore. It’s more not to start WW3 for the last 30+ years

Yeah, Bill Gates destroyed a lot of other companies with his OS monopoly, Dbase (Access) and Lotus 1 2 3 (Excel)…

I’m not sure about the military, but yes a number of researchers used PS3s for cheap computing power.

You literally just doubled down on being one. Computers are here to serve people, NOT the other way around.

I’m done here.

You missed the point, expecting a non technical casual user to type in a bunch of commands that are completely foreign to them. And they don’t understand, is a failure of the OS. Full stop.

“As one example I personally think “sudo apt install name-of-program” is just a more straightforward and easier experience than browsing an app store or downloading an installer.”

Spoken like a true techie cultist that doesn’t comprehend how a typical casual user thinks.

It’s not intimidating it is a archaic unneeded hindrance.

Don’t get me wrong I don’t mind CLI for advanced users and advanced niche technical stuff.

But when an average non technical user needs to open CLI to install the OS, applications, or drivers for standard computing uses. That is a complete failure of the OS in a desktop environment.

Their a corporation, at best they’re baby Hitler…

I find them mildly annoying, but generally tune them out.

The offensive responses, are much worse. Linux users can VERY much be a “boys club” and treat newcomers as lower life forms.

ROFL, I like Linux, but if you can’t install windows 11 easily. The problem isn’t win11…
