Description
I have had this issue with wine overall before, but this time around happens only with Steam Proton. I'm running on a dual GPU(Nvidia/Intel) laptop with Pop!OS 22.04.
The terminal output: steamproton.txt
EDIT:
steam-1449850.log
What I've tried so far:
1.Reinstalling NVIDIA drivers
alperen@pop-os:~$ grep "X Driver" /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[ 8.657] (II) NVIDIA dlloader X Driver 525.85.05 Sat Jan 14 00:47:44 UTC 2023
- Installing missing 32 bit dependencies
alperen@pop-os:
$ cd/.steam/root/ubuntu12_32$ file * | grep ELF | cut -d: -f1 | LD_LIBRARY_PATH=. xargs ldd | grep 'not found' | sort | uniq/.steam/root/ubuntu12_32/.steam/root/ubuntu12_32$ sudo apt install libnvidia-*-525:i386 mesa:i386
alperen@pop-os:

Start with steamproton.txt, steam-1449850.log, xorglog.txt, and systeminfo.txt; compare the failing X11/KDE setup with the working Wayland/GNOME setup described. Reproduce on the listed Pop!_OS 22.04 dual-GPU configuration and identify a confirmed fix or minimal diagnostic next step for launching the game without a window.
