Getting Lutris on Debian working
Install Debian stable
Upgrade debian stable to sid
install the nvidia driver from the nvidia website (for dxvk it needs a driver newer than the debian repos have)
if you have gnome, you will need to purge gdm and reinstall at least gdm, (likely gnome-core) to get it working.
LightDM is far more stable/dependable with the nvidia driver.
Install lutris (see their website for debian instructions)
Install wine staging from apt (wine-staging I think)
Install runners in lutris.
To get steam for linux working, run apt-get download steam
then sudo dpkg --force-all -i steam*.deb
If you already have the nvidia driver manually installed, the dependencies are all already met.
