I installed the game on Manjaro and unfortunately it doesn't load. All the additional libraries listed on the game page are installed (at least their Manjaro equivalents), but the game won't load.

Has anyone had any success with installing the game on this distro?

Have you tried running the executable directly in a terminal?
The windows version seems to work perfectly under wine on arch, at least so far plaing for a couple of hours. I'm getting a SIGSEGV with the Linux version.

I often have such issues with games where the windows version runs with wine but the Linux version does not work. I wish they would all include a .exe in the Linux install that can be directly run by mono since that seems to help.

Oh well, I'm not too picky as long as something works.

Edit: After playing through, it may not be quite perfect: there are a few pauses for a second or two, rare enough to not be too distracting (just a few times throughout the game I think) and random as far as I can tell. I didn't think to check the output of wine to see if there were any clues about what happened. I've seen a much worse version of this on some games under wine so I think there is a good chance that it is wine related. I'd still recommend playing under wine if you can't get the Linux version to work easily, but just wanted to point out this issue.

Game runs on Arch Linux beside of sound (still working to solve that issue). Make sure to install the needed 32 bit libraries from the multilib repository, which GOG states on the game info site. Gamepad Control was a bit tricky: Solved by installing lib32-libudev0-shim from multilib. You also need that if you do not have any Gamepad/Joystick enabled.

Edit: Anyway, don't know how Manjaro is getting around with that. That distro is a bit different from Arch...

A bit late, but probably wort to mention: I run Dex Linux version on Arch Linux. It works with usual GOG installer out of the box. Indeed, initially sound was not working for me too. The reason was required package "lib32-libpulse". It take me some time to find that out, because game description mention "libasound" and thus suggest for ALSA related problems. Also 32bit and not many resources on the web.

Game version: dex_en_6_0_0_0_build_5553_17130
Work very well, but I'm still at the beginning. Don't know overall.
