Steamuxulation redux

Tried to play with Steam again, but no game works anymore. Here is the example of Half Life 2 Death Match, which always used to work:

Code:

I only see errors related to recording.

So what does that mean? The thing is that the game won't start. When I press the green "Play" button, something seems to happen, it changes to the pause symbol (II) for a second and then it goes back to the play symbol (white triangle) again.
 
Hi,

I just did

portsnap fetch update
cd /usr/ports/games/linux-steam-utils
make deinstall
make reinstall clean

After several attemts of starting
steam
the client finally started running, but still the same problem, sorry.
 
Cool, thanks for testing. I pulled the latest changes from Git last week and also having the same issue; log similar to the one you posted. I guess the fix is not working or incomplete. Hopefully shklhn will find some time to revisit this and push another fix.

If Steam launches bwrap for you, override it in compatibility settings.

What is bwrap? How do I know it is lauched? And how do I override it in compatibility settings? I don't see any menu entry " compatibility settings" anywhere?. So what is the menu path, to find it? Is it Steam -> Settings -> and then what?
 
By override compatibility settings, do you mean select or de-select proton? It's happening for Linux native games, I don't have anything selected in compatibility. Selecting Steam Runtime does not help. Also, I get bwrap: Can't read /proc/sys/kernel/overflowuid when steam is starting too (proc is mounted), before even launching any games...and get the same error when launching games as well.

Is there an env var we can to set to override it?

Thanks shkhln, that works! Well, works as in the games are launching now...I tried both legacy and sniper 3 runtimes, but performance is very bad. Is a performance hit expected with LSU chroot or is this something specific to my system with the nvidia fermi graphics?

Performance wasn't great before, but now it's just not playable in most games I used to play before (Super Night Riders, Classic Sport Driving, Horizon Chase Turbo; all three are Unity games). Between then and now I've also updated to FreeBSD 14.2, so not sure if something in that update maybe be contributing to the performance hit. Anyway, I'll poke around to see if I can find the cause for this if it's not LSU chroot related.

Thanks again for your help!
 
When I try to set up the test chroot from that link, it fails here:

sysctl: unknown oid 'dev.drm' , old nvidia driver issue? I need to leave now and probably won't get back to this for another couple of weeks until next year. thanks for all your help, will see if I can at least get this test running when I'm back. Happy New Year!
