I have installed lutris & gamescope as flatpaks, however when I try to launch games (namely gta sa & mod organizer 2) with the gamescope setting enabled, they simply fail to launch. Is there something I am missing?

OS: Linux Mint 21.3 Virginia

Solved: Switched to Wayland and it worked

I think gamescope needs a Wayland session, as it renders games in their own Xwayland “screen”. Mint does not use the Wayland session by default, but the old X11 one. I think Mint added an “experimental” Wayland session recently, so you could try to enable that.
