steam-for-linux VS SteamVR-for-Linux

Anyone else noticing this? I don't believe I'm going insane. For a while now my download speeds, regardless of chosen server, are always slower in the Linux client compared to in Windows. Is the only appropriate place to post about this here -> https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Steam-for-Linux ? Would be great to know that I'm not the only one being affected.

https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues Its seems to be a problem happening only to Nvidia GPUs. Not only Mint but many other distros A temporary solution is to open Steam from the Terminal using "steam -vgui"

I just spent a few hours working on that problem that Steam takes very long to appear. I did not have xdg-desktop-portal-gnome installed, and Steam is the only application that has that problem, so it's not the one from the update forum post. What my (and probably your) problem is, is this one: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/9780. Some bug where CEF gets stuck in a loop. When I executed steam --reset an error about steamwebhelper and glibc appeared like 50 times, each taking a few seconds.

Hey I had the same issue - are you running this on Linux? On my arch machine I had this problem and was able to resolve it via the advice in this thread: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/9640

Steam crashes at launch with libgudev 238 · Issue #9805 · ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux

When Vulkan drivers are ready maybe the Asahi Linux perhaps also be ready to run some SteamVR apps https://github.com/ValveSoftware/SteamVR-for-Linux/blob/mast...

A guess, but SteamVR can't recover from VR applications crashing causing all future ones to not work, might be Home crashing first. Try turning off Home, and restarting.

steam VR Linux issue tracker

I tried to launch Alyx after the setup, and got a 303 error like described here: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/SteamVR-for-Linux/issues/572

From there I went to the SteamVR for Linux Github to see if any bugs related to this were reported.

Yes, the beta - SteamVR Beta Update also has the same problem, but with extra bugs like this issue for "Shared IPC Compositor Init Failed (303)". The linux_v1.14 - Older build, for Linux users also has the same problem. The None beta version is the only one I can use, as it doesn't show the "Shared IPC Compositor Init Failed (303)" error.

I posted an issue on the SteamVR for Linux Github, but that's basically been abandoned so I'm trying my luck here.
