You google the game to see if smarter people have done the investigating.

If not, you parse logs and errors best you can and try to determine what needs enabling. If you get it working, share it on protondb.

Generally though, enabling "everything" doesn't come with any direct drawbacks. This is basically what bottles will do when you tell it you want to run a game, which will then allow most games to work fine.

The latest version of GE is generally what you want, too, as wine/GE isn't supposed to have regressions requiring the use of an older version with some games.

Ah OK, that "everything" solution sounds perfect for me, thanks!

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
