Bugs that I've encountered while trying to install video games

This covers both Linux and Windows video games

Linux

Magic the Gathering Forge

Behavior

When starting a the game from the start script, nothing happens.

Encountered on

Fedora 40

How to solve?

I made sure to install the javac compiler. Once javac was globally available in the terminal, then starting the game would work.

Distance

Behavior

When starting the game, I would encounter a dark blue screen for a couple of seconds, before the application would crash.

Encountered on

Fedora 40

How to solve?

I installed wine on my system. This seems to have fixed the issue (please note that I also installed the Steam client via flatpak as well, which might have been the actual fix. I don't know which of these solved the issue)
