Well, trial and error: Seems it was a runner problem anyway. I tried more than one, Lutris-6.21-6 works. (not the newest ones…) No more any keystroke lag either.
Now I can continue trying it out, maybe I can let my Win10 VM finally go…
Recently bought a new M4 macbook pro so decided to wipe my old mid-2012 mbp and put linux on it. MX Linux with KDE installed flawlessly, everything so far has worked out of the box and snappy. Really liking this distro. Happy to hear about the success getting scrivener working on linux. If I understand right, this only applies with windows licensing, right? I can’t remember but i got a voice in my head saying the licenses are OS-dependent? I have only used Scrivener 3 on macOS before so I’m guessing I wouldn’t have success getting it authorized on linux without buying another license. Somebody correct me if I’m wrong. Good to know there’s options if I ever fully go away from macOS
Yes, you’ll need a Windows licence to run Scrivener legally on Linux.
Whatever the technical ins and outs, you’re effectively using a wrapper (Wine) which recreates the Windows environment in Linux, so only Windows Scrivener version will work, and you need the appropriate Windows licence.
Anyone want to try and make it work for Red Hat 9? Not the fanciest distro but a solid favorite.
