I’ve recently come across an issue with launching games from steam. For now I’ve seen it happen on two games (or rather demos): Crow Country and Sophonce. They launch fine but have some flickering black blocks on the screen that make them unplayable. Here are some images:
This only happens when they go full-screen and on wayland, on X11 works fine. I’ve tried many versions of proton including eggroll variants.
The games work fine when launched with wine without steam in the middle if i do wine <game.exe> . If i do it this way the games detect that I’m running on an ultra-wide screen and play as such but through steam they stay on 16:9 instead.
The HDMI/DP was my wild guess. For now the problem should also go away if you just change in-game resolution for whatever is your screen.
Maybe the problem isn’t being addressed because it was reported to Mesa user-space driver, but maybe the problem is in kernel module. It’s also not 100% always reproducible.
