Troubleshooting

Using Steam flatpak with GameHub

Currently, GameHub only searches for Steam's default configuration directory: ~/.local/share/Steam, but not Steam Flatpak's configuration directory: ~/.var/app/com.valvesoftware.Steam/.local/share/Steam.

The current workaround found is by changing the Installation directory and symlinking ~/.var/app/com.valvesoftware.Steam/.local/share/Steam to ~/.local/share/Steam.

To do so, follow the instructions below:

1. Open GameHub, press on the Vertical ellipsis menu at the top right (⋮), and navigate to Steam;
2. In "Installation directory", change the directory path to /home/${USER}/.var/app/com.valvesoftware.Steam/.steam, where ${USER} is your current user;
3. Open a terminal and run the following command:

ln -s ~/.var/app/com.valvesoftware.Steam/.local/share/Steam ~/.local/share/Steam

The command will symlink ~/.var/app/com.valvesoftware.Steam/.local/share/Steam to ~/.local/share/Steam, where GameHub searches for Steam's configuration directory.

4. Relaunch GameHub.
