  • I don't exactly remember, but I know that I had the launcher running for the first times, and in it, I disabled it so the game launches right away.

    One thing I had in a different game, was a edge process (certainly to fetch news or something) that failed and that was the process I had to kill so I could see the launcher.
    I use btop in the terminal to show processes and I filter with the approximate name of the process I want.
    If you don't know the executable name, you can filter steam and it'll show steam and the sub-processes that are running.
    From there, you can simply select edgeUpdate ( I think that was that) or DirectXInstall (both used to cause me problem when launching games for the first time) and use the kill button and see if the game launches.

  • I think I recall having issues with Proton Experimental.
    I think I am using the last stable Proton 8.something.
    Tried the last GE-Proton as well but also had some issues.

    Another thing, I think during the first launch, some Directx installs did fail or took long and I killed the processes.
    Though, the game always started fine for me, and I disabled the Launcher at the first occasion, now all is good.

    Also, I had some other issues with Steam lately, and I tried the Beta version of the client, all my issues are fixed, you could try that as well.

  • I submitted a ticket to Steam about some issues I had with their client, and they told be those were addressed in the Beta version.
    And all my small issues I had are gone! So I can use Steam with XFCE without issue right now.
    Pretty happy, really.

    I am switching to XFCE to see how it goes, the fact it is lighter on resources than Gnome is a big plus ;)

  • A lot of input in the comments, I'll just add mine in the mix.
    I guess wanting to change the OS for someone can be good if:

    • the current Windows version is EOL and/or has security issues/concerns,
    • the hardware is too old to upgrade,
    • the current user is fed up with crashes, popups, slowliness etc...

    Now, I would go for Mint anyday instead of Ubuntu, because the default matte desktop feels more confortable when coming from windows.

    As for Scrivener, I don't even know what it is, but Wine is quite good recently, so if you're tech/linux savy, you could try to make it work.

  • I tried during the week-end, and it's a confortable and light experience.

    But Steam (I game a lot on my computer) doesn't work well, it stops showing the store page (it gets all black) when I change the virtual desktop.
    I then have to display my library then click again on the store to see the content again.
    Very annoying.
    If it was not for that bug, I might have switched permanently.

    I kept it installed and will retry from time to time if the Steam issue goes away.

  • Yep, those shorts are dumb, and YT is passive aggresive when closing the tray: "ok, we'll repoen the tray in 30 days". It's like "I don't care you don't want those, I'll feed them to you no matter what..." Piss off YT!

  • If they don't want browsers to access the site, why keeping the site open in the first place? And if only regulated people have to access it, they can just share a ssh key or something to grant access, I don't see big problems here. Am I missing something?

  • I think you can search for the URL of the community from where you're logged in. In the results list, you can then click on it to see it in details and click subscribe on the right. (That's the way I do it most of the time)

  • I can't read your config because the screen shot is too small, you should post block of text with ``` before and after.

     
        
    It'll loke like this.
    
      

    Then, I don't do C++, and I have never encountered this issue, but if you're using Mason in your setup, you might want to try to update your language server, then use the command LspRestart maybe...
