…#16881) # Objective - Updates the linux-dependencies docs to 1) fix problems with nix `alsa-lib`, and 2) include additional documentation to run bevy with nix on non NixOS systems. (nix is a package manager that can be run outside of NixOS). ## Solution 1. the nix `alsa-lib` package doesn't include `alsa-plugins`, which bevy depends on. Instead, use the `alsa-lib-with-plugins` package, which wraps `alsa-plugins` into `alsa-lib`. For more information see: NixOS/nixpkgs#277180 2. using nix on non NixOS systems, software like `nixGL` is required to correctly link graphics drivers. ## Testing - Tested on ubuntu 22.04 with nix.
