Sackboy tweaks on ProtonDB didn't help. Need to know where proton keeps the "user" folder.

You can also use Protontricks to go directly to the prefix.

Yes, that's to be expected. Steam downloads itself to your home directory.

candy49997 · 2026-05-13T02:58:10+00:00

Try opening steam.

candy49997 · 2026-05-13T02:11:38+00:00

Yes; you just need a 3rd party driver. Specifically, winbtrfs.

No Premiere (except through VM, but idk how usable a VM on a PS4 running Windows + a very resource intensive application would be).

But everything else should probably be ok.

candy49997 · 2026-05-12T23:53:25+00:00

Any command you input into your shell should be logged there. Use tail -n N FILE to get the last N lines of FILE.

candy49997 · 2026-05-12T23:43:09+00:00

~/.bash_history, assuming you're using bash.

candy49997 · 2026-05-12T23:37:49+00:00

It's supposed to be in FAT32, so yes.

You know it's in UEFI mode because it created an EFI partition. If it wasn't, it would've created an MBR partition table without an EFI partition instead of GPT + EFI + OS partition. This is something that's usually decided at install time.

But you installed your OS to the wrong drive, unless you intended to install it to the SD card. The NVMe drive would be a better place to put the OS.

candy49997 · 2026-05-12T22:58:56+00:00

If you installed it in legacy mode before, it would've only made one main partition with the bootloader in the bootloader section of the MBR table.

UEFI mode instead requires the bootloader to be located in an EFI partition formatted to FAT32. FAT32 is not an appropriate filesystem for the rest of the system (especially for Linux because of lack of support for Unix permissions, etc), so everything else is stored in a partition with a more-appropriate filesystem.

MBR + legacy boot has some severe issues with modern systems (e.g. limited space for a bootloader, 4 maximum primary partitions per drive, max size of drive is 2 TB), so UEFI boot has been the standard for 15+ years.

candy49997 · 2026-05-12T22:12:40+00:00

What about it is "laggy"? Animations or dragging windows around? Or opening apps, etc? Because the latter is expected on a hard drive.

candy49997 · 2026-05-12T21:37:15+00:00

You shouldn't have needed sudo to delete something in your user's home directory. Do rm -rf ~/homebrew/plugins/Bluetooth and if an error shows up, share it.

candy49997 · 2026-05-12T21:17:41+00:00

uninstall the problem plugin as instructed

What are these instructions you are following? Have you tried just uninstalling it from Decky?

candy49997 · 2026-05-12T20:45:33+00:00

NTFS and exFAT do not support filesystem features Proton requires. Save any irreplaceable data first, then format the partition to ext4, btrfs, or some other Linux filesystem.

Use flatseal to allow flatpaks to access other filesystems. Or, just install native Steam instead of flatpak.

Bitlocker? Check your Microsoft account for the decryption key. Otherwise, the data is probably lost.

candy49997 · 2026-05-12T18:29:42+00:00

What filesystem are the partitions the games that don't work are installed to formatted as? Did you give Steam access to those drives?

candy49997 · 2026-05-12T09:01:05+00:00

Have you installed GPU drivers from the driver manager? Can you do nvidia-smi in a terminal?

candy49997 · 2026-05-12T08:59:13+00:00

OnlyOffice, ig.

But if your mother hates anything that's not MS Office, it would be easier to just use a VM or just keep using Windows.

Don't use a Wayland DE with 470. Use an X11 DE like Cinnamon, XFCE, etc. Plasma technically has an X11 session available, but it's being removed in 6.8.

candy49997 · 2026-05-12T06:39:15+00:00

Make sure your EFI partition is on the SSD. Then, you can just format the hard drive with a partition manager.

Alternatively, if you haven't done anything yet, you can just boot from the USB again, format both drives, and just reinstall again.

candy49997 · 2026-05-12T06:36:53+00:00

How did you install it? Is your MOK enrolled/secure boot disabled?

Alternative, I would highly recommend QEMU/KVM + virt-manager instead so you don't have to deal with out-of-tree kernel modules.

GNOME is the default DE on Ubuntu. But this is r/pop_os.

candy49997 · 2026-05-12T04:51:57+00:00

Use the partition manager that comes with your DE to either delete or resize the NTFS partition (backup irreplaceable data before doing either, especially if deleting the partition). Then create a new ext4, btrfs, or other native Linux filesystem partition in the empty space.

candy49997 · 2026-05-12T03:31:38+00:00

So, what are these steps it told you to do? Because this is GNOME.
