Hey everyone! I just switched to Linux and installed openSUSE Tumbleweed with KDE, and I’m facing some gaming issues. While Team Fortress 2 launched (though part of my screen went black initially), switching to Wayland seemed to fix that. However, now I’m having trouble launching other games like Deadlock and Overwatch. Has anyone figured out how to resolve this? I’m running an all AMD build. Any help would be appreciated!

It sounds like Overwatch and Deadlock don’t natively support Linux and might be using Proton for compatibility. Try adding this to the Steam launch options for both games: `PROTON_LOG=1 %command%`. Then run the games and check the logs. That’ll give us more info to help troubleshoot!
