cant run counter strike source
hitting launch on counter strike source doesnt work, tried using the linux runtime but that doesnt work either. proton launches but I cant play on servers because it launches in insecure mode. console logs:

you can't play CS:S on linux
it doesn't work w/ VAC in Proton
wow that was quick. really? I saw people playing it on the steam deck
shouldn't be possible, at least not in a secure server
never has been

Counter Strike Source, running native on Linux. This is amazing. What I personally think is one of the best game series running, running NATIVE. Keep it coming Valve, please. I'm loving this.

??????
and it downloads binaries when I use proton so it definitely has linux binaries
yeah i have played CS:S on both my linux desktop and steam deck
Interesting, this has never worked for me
any clue whats going on for me then
TIL
Maybe it's the same as TF2
where you need the patched libtcmalloc
so we're having the same issue lmao
i can see that
source 32-bit games seem to have issues
where would I get the patched libtcmalloc
flatpak steam or that libtcmalloc should be workarounds
if you're using bazzite-arch you have it already
justh have to LD_PRELOAD
LD_PRELOAD=/lib/libtcmalloc_minimal.so.4 %command%
iircsick ill try
make sure that's the correct path
are these source 32-bit games for linux going to always have issues? should i put this in the FAQ document?
until valve patches them, yea
ok so a while then lol
for a company that supports linux gaming so much I swear they ahve the worst native ports
sick it didnt work
did you verify that file existed in the container?
may have pulled the wrong path
yep
nice
am I gonna have to have a flatpak steam install just to run cs source lol
lemme confirm that for you
i got flatpak steam 
it didnt launch
this is crazy
it used to run like months ago even
did a little bit of research
it didnt launch
this is crazy
it used to run like months ago even
did a little bit of research
lib32-gperftools is supposedly needed
oh tmalloc once again
at least according to 1 dude on protondb lol
LD_PRELOAD=/lib/libtcmalloc_minimal.so.4
yeah i kind of agree with this lolbut then why is there an official binary for it?
scroll down lol
good old ABI breakage
requires valve to patch
but then why does it work on steamos???
old packages
because steamOS is behind enough
yea
oh ok
i guess thats the downside of having newer packages. valve will fix this once SteamOS is on par with us
well with us right now
which might not be for another 6 months lol
will this affect games like portal as well?
probably? iirc it's 32-bit source engine games that have this issue
but idk if it affects all of them
I had no issues running portal after the nvidia bug got fixed
then it's not all of them
probably explains why L4D2 runs fine
i think/hope at least
I don't want it to be like I install portal 2 then it doesn't launch
did any of this stuff fix it or do I literally just have to wait it out
is this an anticheat issue?
its definitely an anticheat issue to not be able to play any of their fucking multiplayer games with proton
they make a shit port then dont allow you to use proton either so you're just stuck
they make you use the linux native versions
which are doodoo
do you have issues with gmod or portal games?
VAC won't let you in lol
you're in insecure mode when you run CS:S thru proton
yep
and csgo just doesnt launch
and tf2 doesnt let you click anything iirc
at least CSGO has vulkan via dxvk-native
your CS2 isnt launching?
that's a good port
CS2 works
60 fps, no less
yeah ive launched it before
I havent tried CS2 cuz my steam just erased my download lol
was 20gb in and it erased my download
didnt bother redownloading cuz i have a data limit
I thought people were running portal games just fine on the deck
oh yeah portal works perfectly btw
gmod works too
do use the 64-bit beta
and the patch in just for it
works so much better
that's good
it has better performance
use LD_PRELOAD=/app/lib32/libtcmalloc.so
only for outdated 32 bit source games
64 bit and up to date source games didn't have this issue

holyshit
valve use proton for counter strike source
Got off pc but ill try it after work
💀
Yea and it doesn't work 😂
and some source engine and goldsrc use proton
did valve ever test the multiplayer?
maybe the tester joined non vac secured server?
what?
looks the same as the other source native games
it's what I said in the beginning
so they're using proton for their main build or something? im confused
whys it so fucking bad then
I don't have CSS installed
Valves defaults to using proton
oh on steam deck okay
I'm not on the steam deck
good job valve great testing
they probably just fired up a bot match and were like ok it works !
for steamdeck
yeah
and no one complains because nobody plays counter strike source
same with HL2 Deathmatch lol
the 2 people still flinging toilets at eachother in shambles
does portal work fine with you on the steam deck with bazzite?
No issue with portal has ever been reported besides the one you found with Nvidia specifically
I have both of them on my deck
i don't have steamdeck 😦
I am getting mine quite soon. The steam deck, even the highest tier ($649.99) is relatively cheap compared to many electronic devices these days.
we should have a cs patch in the justfile
I think we confirmed that patch didn't work here
what can we do then?
idk, not gonna bother with it
game is dead
play CS2
or wait for Valve to fix it like they should
they don't even care enough to have it functional on the deck without tweaking
cs2 works? and what about tf2?
tf2 works with patch
CS2 works ootb

it works with flatpak steam
hurray
what's ootb?
out of the box
no tweaking, press install, press play
I was thinking it is some script on github
For me it doesn't wanna run at all 😦
tried from bazzite-arch and from flatpak steam. It just doesn't start
cs source or cs2?
Cs2
Started happening to me recently too but not on bazzite, but yea on linux. I thought i broke it because i was switching betas to get the csgo models and textures for my old map. But yup it doesnt launch anymore even after verifying files. Didn't investigate it with logs yet though
heh same here, way to go valve
ok, for anyone affected
Valve upgraded SDL and forgor to enable wayland support
WAYLAND_DISPLAY= %command% fixes itFor a total n00b, where does this go?
now cs2 is having problems?
yes, globally, for everyone on linux & wayland
fix above you

Put the fix on the ublue website or something (or even in just if possible) so people can get the fix
I would if it was our problem, but this is valve fucking up
let them fix it
I just think more people should see the fix so people can run cs2 on linux
if this lasts after next week maybe loooool. but by the time I PR it and it gets merged, I'll probably be taking it off the docs. it's out of scope for us to do this to be honest. both https://github.com/ValveSoftware/csgo-osx-linux/issues/ and https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/issues exist. And ProtonDB & AreWeAntiCheatYet exist as a community resources for game support on linux. this issue is not exclusive to bazzite, universal blue images, or fedora
glad it is not exclusive to bazzite

And cs2 is fixed
Woooo
that was very quick?
How much you want to bet they lost the TF2 source code and the one guy with a backup is out of office
imagine if that is actually the case
I like that this thread is basically just general CS talk now
cs source is so doomed we might as well just switch topics lmao
