some of my games didn’t launch, complaining about missing stuff.
I don’t know Slackware, but I know on arch there’s the standard steam runtime version, and then there’s the unofficial steam-native-runtime, which uses system packages instead of steam’s own bundled runtime. And if we’re talking native Linux games, which is where the problem is, they tend to not work with steam’s runtime, presumably because they weren’t properly built to target it, and need to be launched with the native runtime (or switch to running the windows version with proton…)
