[SOLVED?] When I try to launch Steam, the UI just flickers in and out as shown. (sopuli.xyz)

Framework Laptop 16
Linux Mint 22.1 Cinnamon
AMD Ryzen 7 7840HS w/ Radeon 780M Graphics × 8

I keep trying to restart Steam, and I keep getting this. Strangely, the first time I tried to record what was happening, it successfully opened on that occasion, but ~~I couldn't get it to work again.~~ I lowered the resolution to record.

Edit: Since the main image slot doesn't seem to work, I'll try to add it bellow:

Edit 2: NVM, it keeps changing it from ![](https://sopuli.xyz/api/v3/image_proxy?url=https%3A%2F%2Fi.ibb.co%2FRTjTRgH8%2FSteam-UI-issue.webp) to ![](https://sopuli.xyz/api/v3/image_proxy?url=https%3A%2F%2Fi.ibb.co%2FRTjTRgH8%2FSteam-UI-issue.webp)!!!

Edit 3: REALLY?!? Even if I put the link in an inline code block?!?

Update: Strangely, it works consistently when using the desktop shortcut, but consistently fails when using the menu shortcut.

Update 2: I've commented the contents of the two .desktop files.

Update 3: Changing the main Exec in the .desktop that doesn't work to be the same as the one that does didn't work. Although using one of the "sub-options" from the menu short cut such as "Store" or "Library" seems to work, even though the default launch doesn't.

Do you happen to have multiple copies installed by accident? Perhaps an apt package and the flatpak version?

Doesn't look like it.

Check the targets of the desktop shortcut vs your launcher shortcut and see if there is a difference.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (1 children)

It seems the bad one has Exec=sh -c 'STEAM_FRAME_FORCE_CLOSE=1 steam %U', while the good one has Exec=/usr/bin/steam %U.

I guess I just sudo edit the bad .desktop file? I'll see if that works.

Update: Changing the Exec line to Exec=/usr/bin/steam %U didn't work.

Update 2: It seems to just change it back.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

You left out sh -c

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

That's from the command that doesn't work. Simply typing steam into a terminal seems to work fine.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

According to this, that force close directive just minimizes to tray. So is Steam actually running properly just minimizes to tray when the interface disappears?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Yes. But then Store, Library, etc. doesn't do anything.

It's not running properly. A window keeps flickering in and out and I can't get the interface, unless I launch it in any other way as mentioned.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 weeks ago

Well if that setting keeps getting changed back in the launcher config, my gut tells me there's a setting in the steam settings that is putting it there perhaps.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

I am having this exact same problem with my laptop with an AMD dgpu, but it only happens when telling the launcher to use the dedicated graphics card. Looks like one of your launchers have this setting

Still trying to figure out how to tell if stream games are actually using the dgpu.
