    After I switched go the flatpak version of steam and changed the drive from NTFS to ext4 it works. I did both at the same time so I'm not sure which ended up fixing it or if both is necessary

    NTFS?! Yuck.

    But like what was the issue?

    [–] [email protected] 3 points 7 months ago (1 children)

    It's still a dual boot machine. I don't have the time or nerve to switch over on one go. See it as a prove of concept.

    Idk what exactly the issue was. I just know that switching to steam flatpak and ext4 seem to have fixed it.

    Since you are not telling me the issue I cant give you what might have went wrong. You might have learned from that.

    One advice, nobody will like linux who painstakingly has to play catchup on the terminal on a pre-baked OS.

    All the distros I ever cycled through, I always had issues with pre-baked systems. There are always these little things you expect that does not end up happening even if you sweat blood. Then you start looking and you find out that nobody ever had this and there is no documentation whatsoever.

    The only antidote aganist that if you are in control and if it is documented. I only ever liked linux in the advanced form.
