Guide: Installing Krita on Linux with Steam Proton

This guide describes how to use Steam Proton to play and run Windows games on your Linux computer. Some games may not work or may break because Steam Proton is still at a very early stage.


1. Activating Steam Proton for Linux:
Proton is integrated into the Steam Client with "Steam Play." To activate proton, go into your steam client and click on Steam in the upper right corner. Then click on settings to open a new window. From here, click on the Steam Play button at the bottom of the panel. Click "Enable Steam Play for Supported Titles."

Alternatively: Go to Steam > Settings > Steam Play and turn on the "Enable Steam Play for Supported Titles" option.

Valve has tested and fixed some Steam titles and you will now be able to play most of them. However, if you want to go further and play titles that even Valve hasn't tested, toggle the "Enable Steam Play for all titles" option.


2. Choose a version
You should use the Steam Proton version recommended by Steam: 3.7-8. This is the most stable version of Steam Proton at the moment.


3. Restart your Steam
After you have successfully activated Steam Proton, click "OK" and Steam will ask you to restart it for the changes to take effect. Restart it. Your computer will now play all of steam's whitelisted games seamlessly.


4. Launch Stardew Valley on Linux:
Before you can use Steam Proton, you must first download the Stardew Valley Windows game from Steam. When you download Stardew Valley for the first time, you will notice that the download size is slightly larger than the size of the game.
This happens because Steam will download your chosen Steam Proton version with this game as well. After the download is complete, simply click the "Play" button.

What is Krita? Features and Description

Krita is a powerful digital painting application, made for illustrators, game artists, concept artists, animators, comic book artists and everyone who wants to draw and paint.

Krita is an open source drawing, painting and animation application designed for illustrators, concept artists, comic book creators, animators, game artists, matte painters and more. Krita is used daily by artists all over the world from professionals, to students, to enthusiastic hobbyists.

Krita offers many features, including industry standards and innovative designs, which make painting more fun and productive. There are powerful brush engines for sketching and painting, stabilizers for smooth freehand inking, assistants for constructing a complex scene, a distraction-free canvas-only mode for painting without clutter, multiple types of layers and masks for non-destructive editing and, frankly, too many other features to list! You can also exchange files with other applications in a variety of different formats.

Another thing that makes Krita truly stand out is that it's being developed in coordination with an international community of open source enthusiasts with the unified goal of making a great digital painting application that's available as widely as possible. There are no activation codes or mandatory monthly subscription fees, because as members of the digital art community, Krita belongs to all of us--to use, to modify, to design, and to share.

In other words, the Krita community is the lifeblood of this project; none of this would have been possible without the generous contributions of our users, and together, the sky is the limit. Our transparent and collaborative process is empowered thanks to the support of our users, and by buying through Steam you will be directly supporting Krita's development.

Buying through Steam also delivers the convenience of easy installation on all your supported devices and automatic updates each time a new version is released.

Finally, because Krita is a community-driven project you can also download it for free from the Krita Foundation website. Part of our mission is to create a potent tool for artists everywhere, free from most of the socioeconomic boundaries typically associated with professional art software. If users cannot afford Krita or are still unsure about supporting our work, we encourage them to try it out first, supporting us only because you want to. However, you won't have access to the benefit of automatic updates through Steam.

Have some questions? Need some help? Feel free to stop by the support section of Krita-Artists for both official and community support.

  • A great online manual, and a fantastic, growing community.
  • Need some help? Have some questions? Stop by the support section of Krita-Artists for both official and community support.
