  • What it sounds like you want is only your home folder encrypted, where it decrypts seamlessly upon login. It sounds like you have encrypted OS root, which is more secure but necessarily requires a password before the system gets to the login screen.

    Other than reinstalling your system, you do have the option of either making your decryption password shorter, and/or enabling auto-login after boot (if you’re the computer’s only user), so you’d only have to type one password instead of two.

    hmm, not sure… i’ve heard it referred to as “wined3d”? when i had a non-vulkan card it usually wouldn’t try to run vulkan so i didn’t have to mess with it. what result does disabling dxvk have?

    in steam you can put PROTON_USE_WINED3D=1 in the launch options, but this doesn’t help for non-steam games

    Yes, directx to opengl (included in WINE) was used exclusively for a very long time before dxvk and vk-d3d came out just a few years ago. for older games you should be good to go, before i had a vulkan-capable card i ran all kinds of older games, usually without having to tweak anything. in a few games i had to change a game setting to use D3D9 instead of 11.
