I downloaded left 4 dead 2 [fit girl]. Fit girl does provide Smart steam loader. But I got steam isn't running error. I don't know is ss emu works on lutris. I know L4D2 is just 2$ but I'm from Myanmar and I don't have credit card.

why is this cool?
for many reasons.

1. Valve is proving they have a windows->arm->wine pipeline. You can play your windows STEAM games on ARM (which is the cpu type that your phone runs)

2.Valve has claimed the ARM device can run android games, which proves they have a workflow that is likely better than the current linux workflow for running android emulation.

3.SBC (single board computer, aka gaming handhelds) gaming fan? Many cool handheld gaming devices with snapdragon/other processors have been releasing lately.
Android has been it's weakpoint in ways. Winlator is a great project.....but if steam OS via arm is viable it is a much more open platform that doesnt require all hacks winlator does.

the reason many handheld makers have been targeting Android is because so far it has been the most efficient proccesor for performance and much better at power consumption.

1. one of the weakpoints of windows/linux handheld devices is power cosumption and resume from sleep. valve has made this better with steam OS.

Many people are saying the Steam Machine will cost something like $600 to $800! That would make sense if Valve were buying these parts at retail! I think it will cost much less, something like $400, because the hardware used is very cost-effective, and has other characteristics that make it cheap!

First of all, Valve doesn't buy at retail! They buy in bulk and directly from the factory!

Valve doesn't need to make a profit on each device! But I believe they shouldn't subsidize them either!

It doesn't even need to have the retail price! They will sell it in their own store (Steam) like the Steam Deck! Not even Microsoft, Sony, and Nintendo can say they'll save money on that!

Similar AMD CPUs to the Steam Machine are around $60 to $70! That's in retail! Valve can get it much cheaper! Possibly for half the price! Another characteristic is that this processor is a byproduct of more powerful processors! Some processors in the factory are manufactured with defective sectors, so this sector is isolated and this processor is sold with fewer sectors than the main one and much cheaper!

The GPU used also seems to be an RX 7600 GPU with defective sectors! Reducing from 36 processing units to 28 units! This difference is due to the isolated units. This GPU is close to the RX 7400, which has 28 processing units, but the RX 7400 runs at a much lower TDP than the GPU used in Steam Machines.But to compensate for some of this power loss with the isolation of defective areas, it seems to me that this CPU and GPU will be overclocked because of the robust cooling system!

The APUs in other consoles can't be that cheap since they use units without defects!

The 512GB NVMe drives bought in bulk directly from the factory cost around $20.

The RAM they're using is the cheapest, very different from the GDDR7 that will be used in the next generation of consoles! DDR5 is even cheaper than the GDDR6 used entirely in consoles, and DDR5 is better for CPUs because it has less latency!

And everything else seems to be simple parts, nothing extravagant!

And the Steam Machine doesn't have a media reader either!

I'm trying to get my game to launch in my secondary monitor. Currently, I have a TV connected via HDMI cable to my laptop. Using the bash command I get this:

1: +HDMI-1-0 1920/160x1080/90+2560+0 HDMI-1-0

I have been unable to launch Counter Strike 2 on my Fedora 41 system recently. It was launching before, but haven't played in a while. I actually have been unable to launch any game off steam, but I was specifically using CS2 because supports linux natively. I tried using proton, updating my drivers, uninstalling and reinstalling CS2.

Any ideas would be great!

Here are my logs for when I try to launch CS2

Long story short, I used Limo to set up some mods for Skyrim AE a few months ago and it worked great. Now I am trying to set up new mods, but somehow the Skyrim app and its deployers got removed, so now Limo crashes any time I try to import a mod. I don't see an option to add Skyrim back to Limo. The wiki says on first launch, I will get a dialog to import the game from Steam, but this is not the first launch. How can I trigger the add app dialog? I'm running Linux Mint. Where are the config files for Limo stored? If I nuke those, will Limo start as a new app?

I'm sorry if this is not a new issue, but I am fairly new to Linux. I recently put Zorin OS 18 (Gnome) on my laptop to test gaming on Linux (before I eventually move off Windows 11 permanently).

I've just installed Faugus Launcher so I could launch Battle.net games. Every time start World of Warcraft, it starts in full-screen windowed mode on a 1440p laptop monitor, but at a 1080p resolution. That has the effect of having the window off-centre, so when I try to adjust the resolution using the mouse, it's a process of slowly trying to move the mouse around so the buttons highlight and I know I'm in the right spot, then setting to windowed mode and then back to windowed fullscreen. After that it's fine ... but that's every time I start the game.

Any idea what's happening here? Is there a way to force WoW to open in full-screen?

I read people saying that Linux doesn't support kernel level anti cheat nor do I want it to. However Steam's store pages will have a warning if a game uses kernel level anti cheat. It doesn't specify this as being OS specific.

For example, Dayz works on Linux but the store page warns that it uses kernel level anti cheat. It doesn't say anything about only on Windows.

PC Specs • CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 7700X • Cooler: Thermalright Peerless Assassin 120 SE • Motherboard: Gigabyte B650M Gaming Plus WiFi (mATX, AM5) • RAM: 32GB DDR5-6000 CL30 (Teamgroup T-Create Expert) • Storage: 4TB Crucial P3 Plus NVMe SSD (PCIe 4.0) • GPU: Sapphire Pulse Radeon RX 9060 XT 16GB

I have most of these parts laying around, i just need to buy the graphics card and a case, i am wanting to get into Linux for a media console like pc for my living room. I have never done this before so im just asking what OS I should use (was thinking about steamOS not sure though) and I am wanting to know if the parts I have selected will be compatible. I have read that AMD graphics card are better for Linux due to compatibility

For clarity, it will be used to play games like RDR2, it takes two, far cry, etc. Dont want any other use than as a gaming console with more power.

I've tried searching and not found any posted way that has worked, I think because most hits were methods that I guess don't work on recent Proton versions. I want to add a navigation map side program to Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 launching on Proton via Steam, but the maps app requires direct memory access to the game itself so I can't just run it separately like a standalone app. Nothing I've tried so far has worked.

Hi, and thanks for any help upfront.

I've very new to Linux, and have bitten the bullet and installed it.

I'm really struggling to get total war games running. Over 2 days, I've got warhammer 2 running once...

I've changed compatibility to proton experimental (this enabled the launcher to run as not even that loaded beforehand).

I can normally get to the main menu, but doesn't load, just freezes, or black screen then crashes.

Thanks

Hello, I just installed bazzite to my main pc today and upon launching OBS the regular windows features were missing like “twitch chat, activity, and set status/etc” there is no option also to add my own docks.

How do I fix this? I’m fairly new btw.

This is just a video demonstrating the difference in behavior between Steam Flatpak and Steam Snap when creating a .desktop file.

And no, the problem isn't just where the .desktop file is created; the command used would also need to be changed to call Steam Flatpak, because Flatpak doesn't act the same way as Snap, where the Snap's name can be the command that calls it.
