Good morning lemmites, I just installed nobara on my aging gaming laptop, hoping to get a few more years out of it and potentially hook it up as a capture device for my desktop. Most of the process has been seamless but there are a few outliers. First being that I had an issue getting the version of Steam working off of the software portal, so I installed the flatpak to work around it being hung up on installing directX.
Now, I’ve managed to get some games working through Proton-Qt but I’ve noticed that it won’t detect what version of Proton I’m using for Mass Effect LE due to me installing it originally on the non-flatpak version of Steam which Proton-QT is still detecting. I uninstalled the old version of steam but am not sure what the appropriate method of cleaning the drive of old content is on Fedora linux or any linux distro, really.
Nobara is just fedora with wine and proton dependencies installed and some other software like discord prepackaged, or so I was lead to believe.
What’s wrong with it? I chose it over arch because fedora has a longer track record since it’s the professional Linux distro. I figured that was a good move.
