Linux Mint - NOT "Usable Out of the Box" - Probably switching back to Windows

Live usbs are great, but ive 100% had issues after install before on several distros. Arch of course being the worst. Live distros boots, install, boot loop... But that happened on popos too. Ive also seen other more minor issues like Bluetooth stops working after install despite it being a base install. Like literally install, reboot, and Bluetooth no longer works. Given this is on newer hardware, but it can be hella frustrating to go from a live boot that works to a fresh install that doesn't match the experience.

If you have issues with your controllers with the flatpak I would try switching to the native package. There should be a .deb package for steam. If it doesn't change the behavior, then I would assume something else is causing a problem.
You can also install flatseal and try messing with the dbus setting, should be like half way down the menu for the steam flatpak. Since flatpaks are usually not given access to the entire system I could see it not having the correct permissions.

Thanks! I tried switching to the deb package and it was all the same issues. I think I got it working though. Just forced compatibility in Steam and it eventually worked. Still don't fully understand why.
-
Glad you got it working! I turn that setting on for all my games and I honestly didn't even think about asking if you had it on.
-
No worries! I appreciate the help

OC stated those things 'should be worked on'. What else is it than blaming ppl?
Yes things could be better, but saying things should be better while sitting on their ass and doing nothing is just not correct to say. If you say it should be better then you should take part in it getting better.

Maybe you should take a read on Wikipedia on what gatekeeping is before you insult me. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gatekeeping_(communication)

Would you say your attitude and responses here drive inclusion or increase motivation to join opensource or improve things voluntarily?
-
Would you say pointing the finger at the linux devs and maintainers saying they should work harder does improve anything and drives ppl to volunteer?
-
Yup look at me wagglin my finger over here.
If I decide to put up with this type of attitude any further I'll go get a job in fast food. At least then I'd get paid.
Have fun with your gatekeeping.
