I am coming from windows and want to switch. Got a new M2, installed mint cinnamon, got it to dual boot, installed the drivers for my 3060 installed steam.
I linked the steam libraries on my other drives (the ones I also use in windows) downloaded proton in several versions and… Cyberpunk didn’t start. When I restarted the system, updated all the software, restarted again.
When started steam again, the UI was gone. I see three icon in the tray on the right, and I can move the steam window, when I happen to find it. But I don’t see the window, I see the desktop background. What can I do to fix that?
Thanks for your time and help
In Mint most people recommend installing Steam directly from the website as .deb. There are dozens of informative threads on the official forums, which also explain some differences of the installation method, for example: https://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?t=427582
Also Valve’s guide on how to use Steam with an NTFS disk (which I assume you’re using) can be found here: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/wiki/Using-a-NTFS-disk-with-Linux-and-Windows
