Flatpak info

Problem description
When I click out of the window and back into it at some point, the web helper entirely goes black and remains black when I try to click on any other web pages (profile, friends, community, etc.).

When I look at steamwebhelper.log, it turns out it's dumping a ton of errors (over 4 million since I installed the Steam flatpak). My steamwebhelper log is nearly 200 MB after only having been installed for 10 days. Here's a few examples:

Webhelper: An X Error occurred
X Error of failed request:  BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation)
Major opcode of failed request:  152
Serial number of failed request:  1072783
Webhelper: An X Error occurred
X Error of failed request:  BadDrawable (invalid Pixmap or Window parameter)
Major opcode of failed request:  156
Resource id in failed request:  0x5e68c0c
Serial number of failed request:  1072784
Webhelper: An X Error occurred
X Error of failed request:  GLXBadPixmap
Major opcode of failed request:  152
Serial number of failed request:  0
Webhelper: An X Error occurred
X Error of failed request:  GLXBadPixmap
Major opcode of failed request:  152
Serial number of failed request:  1072785
Webhelper: An X Error occurred
X Error of failed request:  BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)
Major opcode of failed request:  142
Serial number of failed request:  1072787
Webhelper: An X Error occurred
X Error of failed request:  BadPixmap (invalid Pixmap parameter)
Major opcode of failed request:  152
Resource id in failed request:  0x5e68c0d
Serial number of failed request:  1072788

When I click on my library and then click on something else, it begins to work again.

Does this issue reproduce with native Steam
Have not tested.

Sounds like your nVidia extension is not operating as expected. Do other flatpaks work for you?
