Proton Next is between the latest stable version of Proton and Proton Experimental. It gets the latest STABLE updates whereas Experimental just gets all the updates, period. So, with that said, while there shouldn't be any issue using Proton Next 7.0-5, I would just use Proton 7.0-4 just to make absolutely sure there's no extraneous issues.~FLOW~ wrote: Wed Nov 30, 2022 12:07 pm PS.
1. Yout are talking about Proton 7.0-4 or Proton Next 7.0-5

2. Does it matter how you install in MX Linux, Steam ?
from package manager, terminal or .deb(from steam)
So far what I notice is from package manager it's easier to uninstall if needed
As to Steam, I just installed it from the MX Package Installer. I don't know if it really matters since Steam handles all its own updates anyway, but there you go.
So, yes, boot from LiveUSB, install Steam, install the game you want, then try either Proton 7.0-4 or Proton 5.0-10. (Hell maybe also 5.13-6.) If neither of them work... Well, I guess your GPU really is in a weird and bad place due to not having proper Vulkan support I'm afraid. In that case, I might advise you to run Windows 8.1 instead on that laptop with Aero Glass and Open Shell installed to get rid of that awful Metro theme.
