- Steam Download Speed Slow on Linux Compared to Windows 10/11
-
Very slow download speeds in Linux but normal in Windows..
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.
- Steam ignores the "Later" button on client updates

steam can't load
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"
- Problems Downloading Steam
-
Stable update today - Please read the forum post
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.

New Steam Update, can't locate any of my previously installed games.
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 Deck
I haven't used it myself but steamtinkerlaunch is definitely your best bet. It lets you easily set up Mod Organizer 2 or Vortex directly on your Deck. The quite extensive wiki will provide more information than I possibly could.

Man New Vegas looks so good on here! Forgot how great this game was. Still can't believe I'm playing this on a handheld.
Tinker Launcher is the easiest way to do it. There is also a third party Linux "port" of MO2 you can install. Tinker Launcher is my preferred method. ProtonupQT is not where you get it from. https://github.com/frostworx/steamtinkerlaunch/wiki/Installation

Does vortex collection work on lutris?
Another app / set of scripts I have found is https://github.com/frostworx/steamtinkerlaunch.
- FSR appears to have no effect on Geometry Dash (Steam game).
- 1k ⭐
- Can't create mixed-case collections ("Vortex")
