GitHub - Furglitch/modorganizer2-linux-installer: An easy-to-use Mod Organizer 2 installer for Linux
MO2-LINT finally allowed me to natively integrate my Skyrim to Ubuntu. Before, I had to create a non-Steam shortcut to my MO2 with a crucial limitation of jury-rigging "Download via Manager" installs from Nexus. Now, as far as I'm concerned, the overall experience is now as seamless as in Windows.
Background: My MO2 profile was originally from Windows that I last touched in 2020. Ported it to Linux in late 2025 and played it for a few months, then tried getting back into Skyrim in Oct 2026.

Does it apply fixes/patches to speed up the game loading time? Large mod lists can take several minutes to load. Another tool for the same task is Jackify which, among other things, can configure the Wine prefix for the game/mod list so that it works in Linux. It also applies USVFS (MO2 feature) patches that improves the loading time of the game from minutes to mere seconds even when large number of mods are used. It also handles installation of Wabbajack lists.

Alternate recommendation (if you're not already in Mod Organizer), I tried Amethyst Mod Manager recently, and it was fantastic. Full support for everything I used to do in MO2, even Jabberwocky lists. Bonus: it also has support for Thunderstore/BepinEx modded games, it's a pretty darn impressive Linux-native all in one modding solution.
Thanks for sharing!
I've had this on my radar for a year or so now and just hadn't bit the bullet yet. I usually just log into my Windows SSD when I want to play modded Skyrim/Fallout 4/Tale of Two Wastelands. I might need to try it out now! :-]
I use this. It's pretty nifty.
The latest update uses a custom compatibility tool that spawns MO2 directly from Steam when you launch the respective game.
I've been running this with FO4 and it just works (after the one time CLI run of mo2-lint). Even the creation kit works.
