Hello everyone!

TL;DR: CP2077 worked via Lutris yesterday. Doesn’t work today. No idea how to troubleshoot Linux, need pointers.

I’ve made the switch to Linux three days ago and I’m trying to figure out how to handle gaming. I’ve been recommended to use Lutris on my recent post about me switching to Linux and that’s what I did.

Not gonna lie, I watched a couple videos, read a couple wikis and then jumped in the fire, eager to play, so I don’t fully understand what I’m doing yet.

Yesterday, I told Lutris it could find my copy of Cyberpunk 2077 on my Windows disk. Filled the config panel as instructed by the youtube video (Linux Experiment) and launched the game.

Worked perfectly immediately.

Today, it crashes on launch with a RED error saying ‘Cyberpunk 2077 flatlined’.

I’m on Pop_OS and did some updates yesterday so I suspect it might be related?

On Windows I’d know how to troubleshoot on my own, but here I’m confused as to where to start the investigation. Could you give me pointers for me to go under the hood and figure out what’s going wrong?

Thanks for your help! :)

Summary of info: Pop_OS 22.04 up to date. Cyberpunk installed on different disk in a windows partition. Using Lutris. Need anything else? PC specs useful?

    Do you use the GOG version? If so, they changed something about the drm recently, you need to remove some files from the game directory. Then it’ll start working again. Let me check if I can find the reference to that…
