I made this app to help me keep track of the different games I have on each of my SD cards. If you have 2 or more SD cards that you swap between and you're ever trying to remember which one has which, this app will help you out....

Witcher 3 not launching at all

Witcher 3 not launching at all

Hi everybody,
A few months back I bought the Wichter III complete edition in a steam sale. I finally have time to play it and now it won't launch. Not on my steam deck and not on my Fedora PC. On PC it is just stuck saying "is beeing started" right next to the play button. On my steam deck it is stuck on a blackscreen with a steam loading symbol...

Has anyone else had these problems?

How to backup Lutris before Steam Deck RMA?

How to backup Lutris before Steam Deck RMA?

Hello!

I have to RMA my Steam Deck (one of thumbsticks grinds against the plastic case) and I'm trying to backup my non-Steam games (and their Lutris configs).

Apparently Discovery uses flatpak, so Lutris config files aren't where the internet says they are (~/.config/lutris/games/, ~/.config/lutris/system.yml, ~/.local/share/lutris/pga.db).

Could anyone please tell me where I can find these on the Steam Deck and what else I might be missing? I've already backed up ~/Games but I'd rather not have to re-add the games manually :(

Bonus question is if anyone has any tips for painless Steam Deck backup/restore :)

EDIT:

After a long search, I was able to find it. If anyone else is wondering, the Flatpak/Steam Deck Lutris config files are located in ~/.var/app/net.lutris.Lutris/config/lutris.

For some reason, Lutris-installed native Linux games also treat ~/.var/app/net.lutris.Lutris/ as their home folder (e.g. Stardew Valley stores its saves in ~/.var/app/net.lutris.Lutris/.config/StardewValley instead of ~/.config/StardewValley).

If anyone can say why this happens, that would be very appreciated!

Can't boot recovery image

Can't boot recovery image

So far I have tried a USB stick, a Linux storage gadget, and 2 micro SD cards. Both the USB and emulated storage device booted to the logo then a black screen where the fan spun down then sat there for 3 hours before I tried something else. The weird thing about both the micro sd's is that after booting them once the deck no longer recognises them as bootable drives. I have to reflash the recovery image before I can boot to it again. One of the cards (cheap nameless 16 gig) booted to the logo and sat there for several hours and the other (1TB Sandisk) booted to the logo then a black screen and is still sitting here 2 hours later.

Edit: leaving the 1TB overnight got as far as the touchpads vibrating when touched.

Wouldn't it be cool if we had a Steam Deck dedicated VR headset?

Wouldn't it be cool if we had a Steam Deck dedicated VR headset?

I know it may seem dumb. But I can see the potential of Steam Deck regarding VR. I absolutely hate the VR headsets nowadays for being proprietary. I myself isn't a VR gamer, but it would be great to see Linux on VR.

Possibly a dumb question: What is the point of using Lutris versus just adding a non-Steam game like normal?

It's possible I'm misunderstanding something here, but I'm confused.
