lol same, i'm on pop os now because i broke mint in some way
but yeah i didn't fiddle with the index, it worked straight away. have you tried it in windows? just to eliminate hardware issues

yeah it works fine on my weaker and older windows pc. if the desire to slice and dice flying cubes is overwhelming, i setup everything on there. disappointing but not the only use case for my windows pc.

hmm maybe a clean reinstall with another distro is justified after all (or the same again, but without messing up lol) the hassle of redownloading all the games again doesn't bring joy tho
