Thanks for the response, dreamer, though no technical issue here, I don't even have it yet. I'm just checking before I buy in case there's some known reason I'm not aware of why it would not work. An AMD RYZEN 7 Pro With VEGA 10 for the graphics (a laptop APU) is the best I can go for, so just wanted to make sure it would actually run the patcher under Linux.
I suppose I'd use Ubuntu MATE for my distro, cause I really liked using it on the RPI.
