Steam for Linux

Steam for Linux

All games fail to launch after recent driver update
Did not install steam via flatpak, running on ubuntu 24.04 with a 2080TI. Everything worked fine until a recent driver update. I managed to get the following logs from protontricks:

I have googled a lot to try and figure out but no solutions work. Installing winehq-staging seems to resolve the wine issues outside of steam. But proton still fails to launch do anything

Hm...did you recently update kernel toward 6.10. ?
I don't know what that all means, but it points a lot toward a kernel missmatch. Kernel 6.10.1 and 6.10.2 are actually reported for causing issues that would be solved on 6.10.3.
Probably you may try another kernel with 6.9.x.
Nope, running kernel 6.8, should probably have included this in the main post. I'll see if I can upgrade to 6.9

There are some errors in the log:

Access error:
protontricks (WARNING): Steam library folder /media/duncte123/games/SteamLibrary not found. Protontricks might not have access to the directory.

Not sure about this one:
protontricks (WARNING): Current Steam Runtime not recognized by Protontricks. x86_64-linux-gnu-capsule-capture-libs: warning: we are assuming "_el_fn_sh_complete" to be private, but it's just a guess

This might need some looking into:
XIO: fatal IO error 9 (Bad file descriptor) on X server ":0" after 19 requests (19 known processed) with 0 events remaining.

Last errors in the log:
00e8:err:winediag:nodrv_CreateWindow Application tried to create a window, but no driver could be loaded. 00e8:err:winediag:nodrv_CreateWindow L"The explorer process failed to start."
Update: I installed kernel 6.9.12, only one monitor worked after that and it inverted all the colours. Ubuntu was not a fan it seems. I tried going back to kernel 6.8.0-38-generic to see if that would resolve the launching issues but it did not fix anything either

You can ignore that first access error, my stream library is on a different drive mounted under /games.

The libcrypto seems to not be an issue as it's ignoring that.

Those x server errors are also my suspicion but I did not manage to find a solution online, hence me posting it here.

Normal wine had the same issue until I switched to winehq-staging
Are your games on an NTFS drive? I ran across the following while reading the linux mint 22 release notes ... https://www.linuxmint.com/rel_wilma.php
NTFS volumes

Kernel 6.8 introduced a regression with NTFS volumes:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ntfs-3g/+bug/2062972
https://github.com/tuxera/ntfs-3g/issues/108

If you're unable to mount an NTFS volume and see 'volume is dirty and "force" flag is not set!' in the dmesg output, launch Disks from the application menu, select your NTFS device, click the cog menu and choose "Repair Filesystem...".

If you're using an NTFS shared drive on kernel 6.8 this may be the problem.
Nope, all my volumes are ext4
was the driver update the nvidia driver? if so, try going back to the prior version that worked.

I've checked, it seemed to be the mesa drivers from https://launchpad.net/%7Eoibaf/+archive/ubuntu/graphics-drivers (I think those are the nvidia drivers, not 100% sure quite new to all this)

Neither upgrading nor downgrading them worked. I switched to these drivers because the drivers that shipped with ubuntu kept freezing plasma.

Native linux games do run of course

unsure about plasma but nvidia driver 525 worked for me when I was using an older ubuntu version (22.04LTS which uses GNOME) when I switched to Linux last year—during active support for the version. 535 gave me a few problems so I had switcged to 525 and hadn't had problems since with steam proton. Since then I switched to debian which has version 525 which was what I was using anyway, no issue (all this for drivers shipped with distribution).

I did face issues with GNOME freezing in the activities tab but upon checking it was a GNOME bug which has been there for years… with LXDE I haven't had a problem since. It could be a combination (possibly—not definite) of a plasma bug with shipped drivers for your distribution and the version of drivers you then used not working well with your distribution. Or it could simply be ubuntu doing ubuntu things (I have grudging pains and only really recommend ubuntu if you do not do manual stuff. Manual stuff like using a driver not shipped with distribution, for example.)

These are the possibilities I can think of.

the mesa drivers are AMD and Intel, the nouveau drivers would the basic linux nvidia drivers. you should have a driver manager somewhere in ubuntu's menus to install the proprietary nvidia drivers, which are best for gaming.

I don't have that menu (likely because I am running kubuntu instead of plain ubuntu), I'll remove that repository to see if that fixes anything.
@Xenophobe THANK YOU

I removed ppa:oibaf/graphics-drivers via the instructions listed on launchpad and everything works again!
I'm glad that worked ... oibaf huh, those can be very touchy in the uninstall process ... really really glad that worked for you.
