Compiling #gamescope on #slackware current – a tale of slackpkg+ repo priorities. 🐧

#Meson failed to download stuff (SSL not available) because Alienbob’s python3 package was looking for libssl 1.1 (wtf?).

Fixed it by:
1️⃣ Replacing Python with the official package.
2️⃣ Replacing Alienbob’s lua (5.1) with the official 5.4 to fix missing symbols.
3️⃣ Adding a missing switch case to satisfy the compiler on the HEAD version. 🛠️

Voila – it compiles and runs! 🚀 #linux #linuxgaming

It was all for this…

I installed `gamescope`, `MangoHud` (case sensitive) and `MangoHud-mangoapp` (you need that one), as well as their 32-bit counterparts, just in case.

Then I ran the script from https://github.com/shahnawazshahin/steam-using-gamescope-guide Then I panicked because, while it was doing its thing with #gamescope, the screen went completely blank. But it works now and I have my own #SteamMachine already. SDDM logs in automatically, I can switch to the desktop and #MangoHud works.
