Fedora 44 Change Proposal Aims To Ensure A Nice Wine/Proton + NTSYNC Experience
A change proposal filed for next year's Fedora 44 release wants to aim for a nice experience when running Wine or the Proton variants supporting the Linux kernel's NTSYNC driver for better emulating the Microsoft Windows NT synchronization primitives.
A change proposal filed for next year's Fedora 44 release wants to aim for a nice experience when running Wine or the Proton variants supporting the Linux kernel's NTSYNC driver for better emulating the Microsoft Windows NT synchronization primitives. The change proposal amounts to adding a new/usr/lib/modules-load.d/ file for ensuring the NTSYNC kernel module gets loaded. We'll see if this change proposal gets the approval of the Fedora Engineering and Steering Committee (FESCo) in the weeks ahead or if some more selective handling is desired since admittedly only a fraction of Fedora users are running Wine/Proton and thus no real reason to load the ntsync kernel module unconditionally everywhere so would likely make more sense being setup as a dependency of the Wine RPM or similar packages.
