WINE Wayland
Hello, I do not know much about WINE, nor this page, but I have found a really cool project that makes WINE run native in Wayland (without the need of XWayland): https://github.com/varmd/wine-wayland. I am wondering if someone can take care of it and add it in the page.

- This project does not seem to be packaged in Arch. -- Blackteahamburger (talk) 09:49, 23 June 2020 (UTC)
- I added a category for this to the Usage section. Blackteahamburger is right, there is no package in the Repos or AUR, but the upstream dev/maintainer provides PKGBUILDs directly for Arch. Thus it would be quite easy to include it in AUR.
- I also added a new effort to support Wayland upstream.

CreateWindow Make sure that your X server is running and that $DISPLAY is set correctly.
Add to troubleshooting: In case of the following error CreateWindow Make sure that your X server is running and that $DISPLAY is set correctly.: Install the package xorg-xhost

Performance issue due to falling back to RandR 1.0 when using NVIDIA
Using Wine 7 and NVIDIA proprietary driver 520.56.06, opening any program, even just winecfg, renders the whole Xorg extremely laggy if you have monitors with more than one modes. In logs, there are lots of warnings like:
0064:err:winediag:is_broken_driver Broken NVIDIA RandR detected, falling back to RandR 1.0. Please consider using the Nouveau driver instead. 0064:fixme:xrandr:xrandr10_get_current_mode Non-primary adapters are unsupported.
This is due to the fallback logic in Wine to support non-native modes. You can either remove all modes except the ones you use for all monitors, or remove the fallback logic using this Proton patch if this case doesn't concern you.

Usage: How to nicely stop wineserver and all related processes?
When using wineconsole, wine fires off a wineserver process and 7 others processes (among C:\windows\system32\services.exe, etcetera). The information how to stop wineserver is missing in the "Usage" section. Probackup-nl (talk) 11:35, 4 April 2023 (UTC)
Case folding?
Probably needs some words about ext4's case-insensitive feature for folders with special attribute, since this is what most windows apps should expect. There's case-insesitive emulation on wine side, but I suppose it can't completely prevent race conditions due to files created outside of wine environment, and reportedly some poorly written games gain performance improvements with case-folded flag.
