Stay with experimental for now.
Do other games show a similar behavior or is it limited to KSP?
BG3 should work fine (was just playing it on Linux about 30m ago, but Arch, btw, etc).
You can get some extra logging from steam, if you exit completely and the, in a terminal, run:
steam -d
It’ll start Steam but output a lot of info to the terminal. The bit we’re interested in isn’t the stuff that it generates while Steam is starting. We want the bit that happens when you press play on a game. It’ll output the information about the important bits (like the Vulkan device, driver versions, monitors, etc )
Make sure there’s no obvious account info in the logs (there shouldn’t be, but always check) and post that.
I’m off to bed but I’ll check in with you tomorrow

You’ve fallen victim to the people who need a /s to recognize irony.
The same people that were, only seconds ago, laughing at the same joke.
sometimes nvidia drivers are in a state that breaks display reinit on wake from sleep
That happens so often that I’ve just bound a hotkey in Hyprland to poke my monitors config (toggling VRR off and on again) in order to force a mode change and wake up the display.
OP, I didn’t see if you’d confirmed that you’d enable Steam Play, see this article: https://support.system76.com/articles/linux-gaming
Kerbal Space Program has a Linux native client and a windows client. By default, Steam will try to install the Linux native client, which is using OpenGL and, apparently, doing software rendering.
You could try to troubleshoot why OpenGL is broken, you probably are missing an environmental variable or something to tell it to use a specific device and so it defaults to software. However, this is kind of a moot point. Development stopped on OpenGL in 2017 and so bugs and weirdness will continue to crop up and fixing it won’t resolve your core issue (Which may be that you’re just not using Proton).
If you’re going to game on this system then you should do what most people do and enable Steam Play and let Steam download the Windows version of KSP and run it through Proton (aka Steam’s version of WINE). Often the Windows versions of games are more supported than the Linux native versions and WINE/Proton do an excellent job of translating the underlying windows system calls into Linux-ese. Proton is the primary reason why gaming on Linux works, because it lets you just play the Windows version of games.
Your logs indicate that your graphics card is the default device for Vulkan and so it should just work as soon as you enable Steam Play. If you have any problems with other games (once you verify that you’re using your graphics card) you can look them up on Protondb (https://www.protondb.com/) and see if you need to make any setting changes. KSP looks to have a Gold rating and appears to work with Proton without any changes.
This is the key part that makes it The Onion material:
From, https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/feb/17/miami-shooting-israeli-men:
…one of the injured men reportedly posted “death to the Arabs” in a message on social media after the shooting. “My father and I went through a murder attempt against antisemitic background,” he wrote.
Jewish man shoots at Israelis because he thought that they were Palestinians. Israeli victims claimed that they were victims of an “antisemitic” attack and post “death to the Arabs”.
The deeper irony is that these men were the victims of an antisemitic attack. They were targeted because they were thought to be Palestinians who are also a Semitic people and yet they seem to share the same prejudice as their attacker.

It is a joke, it far overestimates the number of trained individuals…
Mad? If by mad you mean passionately tired of playing the fools while you parade your supposed superiority, then maybe I am. Your reduction of a pointed critique to a feeble attempt at rhetorical dismissal doesn’t even scratch the surface of the issue. It seems easier to label my words as a verbose expression of anger than to confront what they truly represent—a demand for accountability and a refusal to accept complacency as virtue.
You wear your certifications like a shield, but they hardly cover the gaps in your empathy or understanding. Call it intellectual posturing if you wish, but my critique is less about academics and more about challenging a system that thrives on silence and mediocrity.
Maybe it’s time to let go of your petty defenses and acknowledge that passion—whatever form it takes—can be a sign of someone deeply committed to change. Until then, I’ll keep calling out complacency, regardless of whether it dents your ego or sparks some uncomfortable self-reflection.
Grow up? Perhaps. But only if you dare to step beyond your comfortable haven of condescension and join a genuine dialogue about the issues that matter.
👍
Whateley, your constant parade of condescension and self-importance isn’t just laughable—it’s a disservice to any real dialogue about real issues. Every time you dismiss valid frustration with your smug claims of intellectual superiority, you reinforce a tired, elitist mindset that’s utterly out of touch with the struggles most people face.
Instead of taking the high road, you choose to belittle anyone who dares point out the cracks in a system you conveniently ignore. Your rhetoric isn’t an act of mature debate; it’s a display of insecurity, a desperate effort to elevate yourself above others while failing to recognize your own shortcomings.
So here it is, plain and simple: Stop hiding behind your certifications and pompous catchphrases. Grow up by engaging with the issues instead of perpetuating an attitude that’s as juvenile as it is self-serving. If you can’t see the harm in your approach, maybe it’s time for a reality check—a step away from the intellectual posturing and a move toward genuine, inclusive dialogue.
It’s a very important issue.
But I think when you talk about the kind of numbers that I’m talking about, that — because —
child care is child carestudent loans are student loans… It’s something, you have to have it in this country. You have to have it.But when you talk about those numbers, compared to the kind of numbers that I’m talking about by taxing foreign nations at levels that they’re not used to, but they’ll get used to it very quickly, and it’s not going to stop them from doing business with us, but they’ll have a very substantial tax when they send product into our country,
Those numbers are so much bigger than any numbers that we’re talking about, including child care, that it’s going to take care. We’re going to have — I look forward to having no deficits within a fairly short period of time, coupled with the reductions that I told you about on waste and fraud and all of the other things that are going on in our country.

Essentially all of the industrialized world was destroyed in WWII, except the US. Being the only major supplier of manufactured goods for, the entire world resulted in a huge amount of economic growth that we coasted on for half a century.
