I just built a new PC and decided to use Linux. Initially when I built it my ssd was going to take a long time to come in, weeks after the rest of the parts. So I installed fedora onto an external SSD that I had and everything was great.
Thursday my new internal SSD came in and so I installed fedora onto it and migrated the files I wanted to keep to my new one. After installing steam I’m getting errors when it launches.
There are several versions, proton hot fix, steam, runtime 1.0 scout, runtime 2.0 soldier, runtime 3.0 sniper.
No matter which one I launch this time around I get “an error occurred while launching this game: invalid game configuration”
Usually I launch it, the icon pops up and goes away several times, I end the process, launch it again and it gives me the aforementioned error.
It didn’t do that till I installed the new SSD.
Have you installed Steam as a Flatpak? In that case, maybe it tries to read the file system on the SSD, but has no permission to access it/its mount point
Not a flatpak and the ssd that I originally used isn’t hooked up.
I uninstalled it this morning and reinstalled it. The issue didn’t pop up when I first launched it, but we’ll see
