 aidalgol | K900: Now... do we backport this, or too big of a change? | 09:49:36 |
 K900 | Fuck no we don't backport this | 09:49:45 |
 Marie | can i get steam to create a .desktop file and icon for a game?
It didn't create one for factorio and I'm not sure why | 12:34:07 |
 Sandro 🐧 | right click on your library | 12:34:45 |
| Sandro 🐧 | there should be create desktop or something | 12:34:52 |
| Marie | but that just creates one on the desktop | 12:35:02 |
| Marie | and no icon | 12:35:04 |
| K900 | Are you sure it's not just your desktop environment/launcher not picking it up? | 12:35:19 |
| Marie | i have desktop entries for other games installed via steam | 12:36:08 |
| Marie | but no factorio in ~/.local/share/applications/ | 12:36:50 |
| Marie | reinstalling created one | 13:11:45 |
| Marie | counter-strike 2 is now wayland by default 👀 | 22:43:41 |
| Marie | I'm surprised they shipped this without the steam overlaying having wayland support | 23:00:06 |

I'm surprised they shipped this without the steam overlaying having wayland support Wait why does the Steam overlay need Wayland support | 04:14:34 |
| K900 | It's in-process | 04:14:38 |

The Steam overlay currently depends on GLX and X WSI for OpenGL and Vulkan respectively. As a result, when running a Wayland-native application the overlay will not appear.

| K900 | Huh | 05:43:45 |
 olivia | I'm confused why they can't just hook the VKKHRswapchain stuff on vulkan | 06:18:50 |
| K900 | I thought they did | 06:22:42 |
| K900 | And it was just a Vulkan layer | 06:22:46 |
| aidalgol | This explains why it won't come up for some native games that I know are using Wayland. | 09:13:19 |
