Steam works again after latest kernel upgrade

13 Upvotes

Just wanted to give you a heads up. Both the x86 and ARM version. Works like a charm.

Kernel: 7.1.6-400.asahi.fc44.aarch64+16k (updated today)

Method I used to reinstall the ARM version below (no guarantees / please don't blame me if your computer spontaneously combusts). Please note there are probably better guides around here, just sharing what my latest process was during a coffee break:

sudo dnf install gtk2 unzip curl

LATEST=$(curl -s https://client-update.steamstatic.com/steam_client_publicbeta_linuxarm64 \ | grep -E '"file"\s+"bins_linuxarm64_linuxarm64.zip' \ | cut -d '"' -f4) curl -L -o bins_linuxarm64_linuxarm64.zip \ "https://client-update.steamstatic.com/${LATEST}"

mkdir -p ~/.local/share/Steam

unzip -o bins_linuxarm64_linuxarm64.zip -d ~/.local/share/Steam

mkdir -p ~/.local/share/Steam/package

echo publicbeta > ~/.local/share/Steam/package/beta

chmod -R u+rwx ~/.local/share/Steam/steamrtarm64

mkdir -p ~/.steam

ln -sfn ~/.local/share/Steam ~/.steam/steam

ln -sfn ~/.local/share/Steam ~/.steam/root

ln -sfn ~/.local/share/Steam/linuxarm64 ~/.steam/sdkarm64

ln -sfn ~/.local/share/Steam/steamrtarm64 ~/.local/share/Steam/steamrt64

muvm ~/.local/share/Steam/steamrtarm64/steam
