To temporarily use Steam-related tools like <code>steam-run</code> (for FHS environments) or <code>steamcmd</code> (for server management or tools like steam-tui setup) in a shell environment, you can run:

</translate>

nix-shell -p steam-run # For FHS environment

$ nix-shell -p steam-run # For FHS environment

nix-shell -p steamcmd # For steamcmd

$ nix-shell -p steamcmd # For steamcmd

</syntaxhighlight>

This provides the tools in your current shell without adding them to your system configuration. For <code>steamcmd</code> to work correctly for some tasks (like initializing for steam-tui), you might need to run it once to generate necessary files, as shown in the `steam-tui` section.

=== Fix missing icons for games in GNOME dock and activities overview ===

== Troubleshooting ==

</translate>

GNOME uses the window class to determine the icon associated with a window. Steam currently doesn't set the required key for this in its .desktop files<ref>https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/12207</ref>, but you can fix this manually by editing the <code>StartupWMClass</code> key for each game's .desktop file, found under <code>~/.local/share/applications/</code>.

For games running through Proton, the value should be <code>steam_app_<game_id></code> (where <code><game_id></code> matches the value after steam://rungameid/ on the <code>Exec</code> line).

For games running natively, the value should match the game's main executable.

For example, the modified .desktop file for Valheim looks like this:

</translate>

[Desktop Entry]

Name=Valheim

Comment=Play this game on Steam

Exec=steam steam://rungameid/892970

Icon=steam_icon_892970

Terminal=false

Categories=Game;

StartupWMClass=valheim.x86_64

When you restart [[Steam]] after an update, it starts the old version. ([https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/181904 #181904])

A workaround is to remove the user files in <code>/home/<USER>/.local/share/Steam/userdata</code>. This can be done with <code>rm -rf /home/<USER>/.local/share/Steam/userdata</code> in the terminal or with your file manager. After that, Steam can be set up again by restarting.

Games may fail to start because they lack dependencies (this should be added to the script, for now), or because they cannot be patched. The steps to launch a game directly are:

==== Changing the driver on AMD GPUs ====

==== Changing the driver on AMD GPUs ====

</translate>

{{note|This is not recommended because radv drivers tend to perform better and are generally more stable than amdvlk.}}

Sometimes, changing the driver on AMD GPUs helps. To try this, first, install multiple drivers such as radv and amdvlk:

</translate>

Line 324:

Line 348:

</syntaxhighlight>

In the presence of both drivers, [[Steam]] will default to amdvlk. The amdvlk driver can be considered more correct regarding Vulkan specification implementation, but less performant than radv. However, this tradeoff between correctness and performance can sometimes make or break the gaming experience.

</translate>

To "reset" your driver to radv when both radv and amdvlk are installed, set either <code>AMD_VULKAN_ICD = "RADV"</code> or <code>VK_ICD_FILENAMES = "/run/opengl-driver/share/vulkan/icd.d/radeon_icd.x86_64.json"</code> environment variable. For example, if you start [[Steam]] from the shell, you can enable radv for the current session by running <code>AMD_VULKAN_ICD="RADV" steam</code>. If you are unsure which driver you currently use, you can launch a game with [https://github.com/flightlessmango/MangoHud MangoHud] enabled, which has the capability to show what driver is currently in use.

"Project Zomboid" may report "couldn't determine 32/64 bit of java". This is not related to java at all, it carries its own outdated java binary that refuses to start if path contains non-Latin characters. Check for errors by directly starting local java binary within <code>steam-run bash</code>.

Resetting your password through the [[Steam]] app may fail at the CAPTCHA step repeatedly, with [[Steam]] itself reporting that the CAPTCHA was not correct, even though the CAPTCHA UI shows success. Resetting password through the [[Steam]] website should work around that.
