By now you can safely assume that all games work with Linux. The very few exceptions that don’t are those games that explicitly block Linux gamers.
Space Marine 2 is the only reason I’m still booting on Windows…
Works flawlessly on my steam deck and manjaro desktop
Skyrim still does not work. Try pulling up the virtual keyboard on the Steam Deck while in the game.
That’s a steam deck issue, not a Linux issue though. Skyrim works on Linux
You are incorrect, it is 100% a linux issue: Steam Deck runs Steam OS, which is an Arch linux flavor.
The virtual keyboard isn’t used while gaming in regular desktop Linux. That is a steam issue, specifically a steamdeck issue since a regular desktop would use the physical keyboard to type in Skyrim.
I know about the OS the deck is running and that it’s an arch form, but it’s not a Linux issue, it’s a steam deck issue since non steamdeck desktop Linux pcs don’t have that issue because they use a physical keyboard.
What you are saying is like me saying that the inability to read Chinese is a human issue because I can’t read it and in human. Naaah.
That doesn’t make it a Linux issue. It’s an issue with some component that is in a Linux distribution, but it probably has nothing to do with the Linux operating system. It sounds like it’s specifically some component of the Deck at fault, not a part of Linux.
Sounds more like a skill issue
That’s like pointing at an Android-based smart fridge, saying it doesn’t run Skyrim, and saying it’s a Linux issue, because android is based on Linux.
If you want to play the semantics game, Android does not run a Linux kernel and is only based on it. Which makes it no longer Linux.
Nice try.
A patched and modified Linux kernel is still a Linux kernel

when you open skyrim, go to the mods section, hit left bumper when there to open the search. it will bring up the virtual keyboard.
now just simply exit the menu and start the game. and the keyboard will work without crashing the game.
its a workaround, but I’m used to doing it whenever I load up skyrim.
enjoy! <3
I’ve already tried that, it does not work. Appreciate your help however.
