The Windows kyber_launcher.exe approach under Wine/Proton has two
unfixable problems on Linux: Wine's cmd.exe crashes with STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION
on the long EA OAuth URL, and EA's auth callback uses the eadesktop://
URI scheme which has no Linux handler.
The correct solution is the native Linux port AppImage maintained at
github.com/simonlinuxcraft/kyber-linuxport-unofficial. It bundles Maxima
(open-source EA Desktop replacement) and handles OAuth natively — no shims,
no watchers, no per-Proton-update maintenance.
Script now: fetches latest release from GitHub API, downloads AppImage,
installs desktop entry and ~/.local/bin/kyber symlink.
README: add Gaming scripts section documenting Kyber setup, private server
hosting with bots, requirements, and what does not work.
