    CrossOver is actually pretty good for Macs with Apple Silicon, where there is limited choice. But on Linux, you're far better off sticking with Steam + Proton-GE / Lutris + Wine-GE

      If you look at the developers of Proton, Lutris, and wine you will see a decent number of codeweavers employees. I think valve may have even hired them to develop the compatability layer on the steam deck (Proton/Wine).

      It's essentially the commercial version of Wine (although I'm definitely oversimplifying). It's developed by the same company, CodeWeavers.

    I'm going to try the trial version, see if this could let me run the steelseries software on Linux. If it does, I will jump ship from windows to Linux.

    If anyone have suggestions through other means to get it to work, I would love to hear it!

      You could try:

      •lutris

      •play on linux

      •bottles

      I recommend bottles for anything that's not available on steam (i.e. driver software) worked pretty well for me

      There are some alternatives to the official Steelseries software, what are you using it for specifically?

        I have a apex 350 keyboard with lots of macro keys on it.

        I'm looking for software with a easy to use GUI that i can use to setup the keys and control my lights. I assume the media buttons will work on any linux version?
