Ok, so re-install Steam! 😆
Pretty sure what I got was Snap. I was presented an App installer thing that kinda reminded me of the Microsoft Store (except, way less laggy). I think I remember seeing the word Snap.
Is there a way to verify that I have the right drivers for the video card? When it comes to GUI, I have a very Windows mindset, where I need to install the proper drivers, else I get the basic “well it works” drivers which aren’t good for gaming.
I was under the impression that intel dgpu drivers were in the kernel and part of the mesa library. Not sure what kernel Ubuntu is using but you may want to grab a more recent kernel.
Quick search shows people are using kernel 6.12 and mesa 25 with decent success but not in all games. Could also swap to distro with more recent kernel.
Just don’t install Steam with snap. Many have had issues in the past with it. Either flatpak or grabbing the deb file from Steam
Yeah I agree, snap sucks big time. It’s so sad that Ubuntu decided to go all in on that shit

Yeah, just remove and grab the deb file instead.
