Simply put, proton is great for playing single player games or even ones I don’t mind playing offline like dark souls. However I recently purchased rust and am limited to servers with each disabled. I think a good work around is playing in a vm with my Nvidia GPU run through the onboard GPU. Many of the guides I have tried have yielded no results, idk if I’m doing something wrong. Help would be appreciated, I’m using Ubuntu with a 1080ti and a Ryzen CPU.
Which Ryzen CPU do you have? Most of the existing desktop parts for Ryzen don’t have onboard graphics, which could make things difficult for you.
I can’t remember exactly but my mother board is a ROG board and in the about of my system it shows I have two cards. I currently have it set to prioritize the Nvidia card for the limited amount of gaming I can do now.
Interesting. It would still probably be helpful if you posted the output of
lscpu, which should give some information about what processor you have.One other thing that could be important, but I’m not sure about, is that I know in the past Nvidia has been restrictive about allowing consumer cards to do what they consider enterprise level things, like GPU passthrough. It has been awhile since I was looking into it closely, though, so things may be different now.
You were right actually, I then decided to try it on my laptop which has an Intel CPU and when I tried to make Ubuntu use the onboard card it wouldn’t boot. I’m now trying to do it with Manjaro but idk.
Wait what are you trying to do?
Play something like rust on windows so I can actually enjoy the experience with a lot of server options.

Since you are using a debian forked distro i would follow this guide. Watch it entirely first take notes - then rewatch while following the steps.
