Sea of Thieves Xbox login white screen

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 15. April 2026 - 10:19

Any fixes to this? Alt tab shows the name as "Sign into the xbox network". Doesn't crash, if I close the box then it goes back to the initial menu. Upon verifying files, it asked if I wanted to do another integrity check. 2nd picture is what appeared after.

I'm on Proton 10.0-3, Wayland (labwc, no window decoration), Void Linux, running through Steam.

Proton 9.0-4 showed a small error box saying to contact the devs and crashed.

Now with the low vram patch, should I switch to the open source Nvidia drivers?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 15. April 2026 - 10:08

hey I'm running cachy os with a gtx 1650 GPU with 4gb of vram, and yeah it's been a journey...

I always knew that the low vram causes all of this so guess how much excitement I got when I got the news about the patch, but then as always Nvidia gets it last and the proprietary drivers are an afterthought (not because of the community of course)

the question is is it worth it to move to the open source driver considering I'm running niri mainly

is the gaming performance on the open source driver good enough on my GPU to make the switch worth it?

I've downloaded Death Stranding 2, added RenoDX and Optiscaler mods to it before even checking if it works, to my surprise no matter what proton version I'm using, the game just doesn't want to work with me, it launches but nothing happens, and it doesn't crash either, its just stuck at the game is launched step without nothing appearing, anyone else had same issue and fixed it?

Steam games are black screened, none of the other fixes I can find seem to work?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 15. April 2026 - 09:00

Hi friends! 👋 I'm on Ubuntu 25.10 (Linux 6.17, 64-bit, Wayland), and I'm having an issue with many games on Steam: when I boot them, the screen is all black, but I can hear the sounds and sometimes see my mouse cursor.

Looking at Steam settings (Help -> System Information) it seems to miss my video card entirely, an Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090 (Ubuntu sees/uses it fine from Settings -> System Details). Steam is instead listing the integrated one of my CPU. Also of note, when I open Steam, it shows a popup saying it can't find 32-bit NVIDIA drivers for the host system, instructing me to run:

`sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386

sudo apt update

sudo apt install libnvidia-gl-595:i386
`

the last command fails, unable to locate a package for this driver version in 32-bit ([the linked doc page](https://github.com/canonical/steam-snap/wiki/FAQ#32-bit-driver) shows that the package name is auto-populated via the version of the 64-bit drivers). I've looked around various NVIDIA docs and forums, I don't know if I can find specifically 32 bit drivers for the 595 version of the drivers?

I've tried reinstalling at 590, but that ended up just borking things; `apt` failed the command and when I rebooted I had to purge and reinstall the drivers back to 595. I've also tried Proton compatibility mode.

Do y'all have any suggestions for Steam recognizing my proper graphics card? Or otherwise fixing the black screen? I've been able to play certain games just fine (_Outer Wilds_, _Excavation of Hob's Barrow_, _Celeste_) but I'm trying all three _Witcher_ games and running into issues I think are related to this.

Thanks 🙏
