Can no longer edit/view/alter games via right click menu. #9300

Your system information

Please describe your issue in as much detail as possible:

I can no longer verify games, set launch parameters or anything else that requires a right click.

Right clicking a game in the library or side menu either locks up and freezes the menu popup or crashes the library view and refreshes/restarts it.

Right clicking a game in the library list = CAPIJobRequestUserStats - No Connection & no schema

If the attempt hangs all logging dies. If the Library view crashes and restarts the logs show: CAPIJobRequestUserStats - No Connection & no schema steamwebhelper.sh[205160]: Runtime for steamwebhelper: defaulting to /home/shed/.local/share/Steam/ubuntu12_64/steam-runtime-heavy steamwebhelper.sh[205160]: glibc >= 2.34, partially disabling sandbox until CEF supports clone3() BuildCompleteAppOverviewChange: 360 apps

(steam:192338): Gtk-WARNING **: 02:30:29.360: gtk_disable_setlocale() must be called before gtk_init() RegisterForAppOverview 1: 2ms RegisterForAppOverview 2: 2ms

Steps for reproducing this issue:

  1. Have more than one XScreen defined in xorg.conf
  2. Run Steam on an XScreen other than 0.0
  3. Note the behaviors above because GTK is broken by design for XScreen configs. GTK no longer enumerates XScreens since 3.2(ish) so when Steam calls problematic GTK functions and XScreen 0.1 or 0.2 is returned it just crashes or hangs. This issue was not present until a recent client update. All functions work as intended if Steam is run on XScreen 0.0.

Interestingly Steam is again functioning. Right clicking only kicks out CAPIJobRequestUserStats - No Connection & no schema and brings up the menu to modify/uninstall/etc correctly again.

Day after reopening a game won't run, I right click to go to properties and check a few things before I remember that's broken and it hangs for a moment then Steam proceeds to draw garbage again all over my screens and I have to reboot to get it to stop. (Reboot because it also screws up my keymap and it's impossible to drop to a tty or launch a normal term to kill etc, can't even reisub.)

I have a similar but not as bad a problem: The steam client library properties (via right-click on a game) no longer allows me to select entries in drop-down menu. (If I should open a new issue on this, let me know)

System information:

In the steam client Library (ie game) properties no longer allow me to select entries in drop-down menus. (check boxes still work). For example I can not change from always keeping a game updated to only updating a game on launch. Or if I choose a specific compatibility tool I can no longer select the proton version in the drop down.

I have tried re-starting the steam client and rebooting my system. I have tested this on several games listed in the steam client library. This is a relatively new issue as I almost always change new games I purchase to update only on launch.

(I tried the steam Linux beta but that would not even start and I had to delete ~/.steam/steam/package/ beta to get back to the non-beta.)

My question is what is your GPU/X config? Are you running Steam on a non 0.0 XScreen? (Are you even running X?)

Hello @88mm, your issue is being tracked at #9273.

I think I am on 0 ...

Your issue is not my reported issue. My issue is Steam queries various GTK functions and GTK is broken my design for XScreen enumeration. So unless you are running Steam on an XScreen other than 0.0 (gnome will be 1 index) you have a different issue. As @kisak-valve said your issue is tracked at https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/9273

Right click and various UI elements are still broken...I love how many tickets I have pushing a year with no fix.

nPHYN1T3 commented 3 months ago

As an update this is still a massive PITA on both my machine and my roommates. She's running XFCE (so not an "obscure" tiling WM) while I'm running CTWM. Steam is nearly impossible to use without tons of tricks and BS workarounds...
