I did both - I have steam and steam-run in environment.systemPackages and I have packages.steam.enable = true;

Here’s my hardware config:

  hardware = {
    bluetooth.enable = true; # enables support for Bluetooth
    bluetooth.powerOnBoot = true; # powers up the default Bluetooth controller on boot
    opengl = {
      enable = true;
      extraPackages = with pkgs; [
        intel-media-driver # LIBVA_DRIVER_NAME=iHD
        intel-media-sdk
        intel-vaapi-driver # For older processors. LIBVA_DRIVER_NAME=i965
        vaapiIntel
        vaapiVdpau
        libvdpau-va-gl
      ];
    };
    pulseaudio = {
      enable = true;
      support32Bit = true;
      extraConfig = "load-module module-combine-sink";
    };
    xpadneo.enable = true;
  };

It’s a 2013 macbook air, which is weird because when I had OSX installed it played Stardew fine.

Just tried GE-Proton-9-9 and the play button goes to “stop” and then right back to “play”. I tried launching from terminal using nix-shell and steam-run so I could see the error messages when it crashes. Thanks for looking at your setup to see what was going on.

Apparently, I’m not the only one. https://discourse.nixos.org/t/help-running-stardew-valley-in-nixos/48574

How do you avoid those errors?

Some games don’t work, despite what ProtonDB says, such as Stardew Valley.

For anyone that stumbles on this, try ‘QT_STYLE_OVERRIDE=Fusion QT_QPA_PLATFORM=xcb synology-drive autostart’ for your startup command. That worked for me.

OMG are you fucking kidding me!!! Your comment got me thinking. So I looked at my desktop to see what I had in the startup command and it was ‘synology-drive autostart’ instead of ‘synology-drive start’. #livinthatlinuxlife #killmenow

Sigh… Thank you!!!

I use a bash script because I don’t know of a way to start a program minimized to tray using the hyprland config. If there is a method of doing that, I’d be happy to give it a try.
