DCS can be made to run on linux. You will need to use either wine or proton.
Using Wine
This is most useful for those who are on standalone. You can use Lutris to make installation easier. https://lutris.net/games/dcs-world/
Using Proton
This requires that you have your games on Steam.
As of October 2022 the following steps are confirmed to be working on Kubuntu 22.04:
Enable compatibility mode for DCS in the properties by going into the compatibility tab and enabling the tickbox in the settings. Choose Proton 7 or Proton Experimental as the version
Go to the General tab, and set up the following launch options:WINEDLLOVERRIDES='wbemprox=n' %command%
DCS should now start up normally.
If you get an error with compiling the shaders during startup, you can use to fix that:protontricks 223750 d3dcompiler_47
