Hi,
I’ve been using Manjaro for a year now, but I’m still kind of a newbie, as I mostly use the PC for gaming or entertainment, and I’m not very knowledgeable of the inner workings of Linux.
After originally going through a hassle to get Manjaro installed and properly working with my hardware configuration, everything ran great for a long time, I got Steam Proton working without hassle and could also run games outside of steam most of the time with Wine. A couple months ago I updated Manjaro (which I had mostly not done for a while) and after that Wine broke. At first I thought it was related to one particular game (of which an earlier version had worked just fine) so I guessed the latest version was just not compatible, didn’t really try again and went back to my steam games, hoping the next release would work. However, a couple days ago I tried using Wine for some other games and nothing seemed to run. Launching any game or program via Wine would just do nothing for a while and then the PC would become completely unresponsive. When I open KSysGuard, it just shows the memory usage going up until it reaches the max, after which the only thing that helps is a hard reset.
I’ve usually updated via the Add/Remove Software app since I’m not great with the terminal, so my original thought was to just go and update anything wine-related already installed on my machine. Somehow doing that also updated my Kernel version, which for a while made me boot into a black screen (apparently cause the nvidia drivers dont work?), until I googled how to get to the GRUB menu at boot and select my old Kernel (any help on how to revert that update and automatically boot to 5.8 would be also appreciated 
). Anyhow, the whole update process didn’t solve the issue either. I’m out of ideas of what to type into Google at this point.
The rules forum said that I should include this in my post, let me know if there’s any other command outputs I need to provide.
