It’s this why I saw the entire wing Commander library for sale on steam? I played the first two and privateer in my old 486, but had to tinker with config.sys and autoexec.bat to clear enough cache and there was no way I could stretch to to play #3

Some of those later ones were like movies with meson drivers mixed in. Mark Hamil, John rhys-davies? I think I remember Christopher Walken giving me friend-or-foe radar at some point?

I’m no help here, but I have been thinking strongly of converting an old windows box to Linux gaming with steam, so I’m hoping someone can help OP and I can pretroubleshoot my own transition. Steam has their own debian-based OS, right? I was planning on falling back to that if proton didn’t work
