My understanding is the Mesa driver is userland so Flatpaks can include it. I just assumed Steam would include it for slower moving distros.
I am new to Flatpaks and still trying to understand, any correction is welcome.

What about mesa drivers and other dependencies like Mangohud?
Good to know, thanks for the clarification.
Good suggestion; haven't dived into the world of Gamescope yet.
The game is under Steam proton, so I would expect that to use Wayland; unless all that stuff is XWayland?
Really enjoying Tumbleweed so far. The extra testing cycle they do versus Arch has a measurable effect on stability and need to fiddle with things after a routine system upgrade.
Nice! I imagine it doesn’t work with Firefox sync though?
I saw, very exciting!
Follow up, have both the Flatpak version and package steam up and running. Moved my game library to ~/Games/Steam
. I added ~/Games/Steam:rw
(and later ~/Games/Steam:create
) to my Flatpak permissions and tried to install a game that already existed to make Flatpak Steam realize it was there, Steam instead gives me a "Disk Write Error". Did you hit this at all, any idea what it may be?
EDIT: Fix it, or it magically fixed itself. I removed the Steam library and re-added it and that seemed to make it happy.
I am tempted to wait as I should be getting Plasma 6 soonish (on Tumbleweed)
Basically :)
Looks cool, don't want to start using user repos for it though. Wish they had a Flatpak.
