Hi All,

Been bashing my head against this one, rebuild my OS yesterday, running linux mint and reinstalled steam, but can’t get anything to run on a proton version higher than 5 - i’m sure i’m missing something but don’t know what.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

OS: Linux Mint 21.2 x86_64 Kernel: 6.2.0-31-generic CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 3800XT GPU: AMD ATI Radeon RX 5500/5500M

    It’s possible they installed with sudo or something, which ruined the permissions. First try find /home/lewis/.steam ! -user lewis. That will show if any files got owned incorrectly. If so, do chown -R lewis:lewis /home/lewis/.steam.

    Not sure this is a permission/owner issue though. My guess is /home/lewis/.steam/debian-installation/steamapps/common/SteamLinuxRuntime_sniper/_v2-entry-point: 285: exec: /home/lewis/.steam/debian-installation/steamapps/common/SteamLinuxRuntime_sniper/run doesn’t have the executable bit. try chmod +x /home/lewis/.steam/debian-installation/steamapps/common/SteamLinuxRuntime_sniper/_v2-entry-point: 285: exec: /home/lewis/.steam/debian-installation/steamapps/common/SteamLinuxRuntime_sniper/run.
