From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

This is the most important part of this whole thing to me. Imagine Nvidia watching Steve shitting on them for having horrible drivers on Linux and millions of people seeing that.
My game randomly freezes like once an hour on linux. Thanks, Nvidia!
Idk what wm/de you're using, but disabling gpu acceleration in steam fixed this for me in hyprland
I'm not even running steam, I'm launching directly from wine
Damn that's hardcore, gonna go ahead and assume you've already exhausted all troubleshooting options then xD
The log screams at me about the Nvidia driver and page flipping and stuff and I doubt I can do much at this point
