Current Behavior

Image

Running cs 2 in wayland (set wayland in cs2.sh) it eihter doesnt open at all or opens minimized and you cant unminimize it

Steps To Reproduce

1.Start the game in wayland mode (wayland in cs2.sh) with the launch options : gamescope -w 1280 -h 960 -W 1920 -H 1080 -f -S stretch -- %command% 2. Game starts minimized and you cant open it or game doesnt open at all 3. gg

Hardware information

OS: CachyOS x86_64
Kernel: Linux 6.18.0-3-cachyos
CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 2600X (12) @ 3.60 GHz
GPU: AMD Radeon RX 580 Series [Discrete]
Memory: 5.22 GiB / 15.55 GiB (34%)
Swap: 1.61 GiB / 15.55 GiB (10%)
Disk (/): 119.57 GiB / 445.13 GiB (27%) - btrfs
Driver: Mesa 25.3.1-arch1.3

Software information

- Desktop environment: DE Plasma 6.5.3
- Session type: wayland
- Gamescope version: gamescope version 3.16.17
- Gamescope launch command(s): gamescope -w 1280 -h 960 -W 1920 -H 1080 -f -S stretch -- %command%

Which gamescope backends have the issue you are reporting?

  • [x] Wayland (default for nested gamescope)
  • [ ] DRM (default for embedded gamescope, i.e. gamescope-session)
  • [ ] SDL
  • [ ] OpenVR

Logging, screenshots, or anything else

Running gamescope in the launch options immediately crashes the game before it gets to show up : gamescope -w 1280 -h 960 -W 1920 -H 1080 -f -S stretch -- %command%

Ive tried a bunch of variations and the all either crash the game or the game hangs ,stays minimized and you cant open it. i also tried running hte game x11 to no avail.

Start the game in wayland mode

gamescope does not expose support for wayland client apps by default, you would have to add --expose-wayland which is still pretty experimental afaik

When i do this, the game stays minimized but does not crash. You cant open it though.

what happens with the expose wayland command

Gamescope has various issues with running games on Wayland.

alou-S avatar Dec 27 '25 12:12 alou-S

I can't confirm any issues with cs2 running through gamescope. Tested intel, nvidia - both are working. I think the main reason is your wayland in cs2.sh (don't even know what does it mean):

steam-launch-wrapper: Unrecognised option /home/cone/.local/share/Steam/ubuntu12_32/reaper
[gamescope] [Info] launch: Primary child shut down!
(EE) failed to read Wayland events: Broken pipe
basename: extra operand 'Offensive/game/cs2.sh'
Try 'basename --help' for more information.
Loaded /home/cone/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/Counter-Strike Global Offensive/game/bin/linuxsteamrt64/libengine2.so, got 0x55aedce4d260

make sure launch options are correct.

The issue can be closed, as not a gamescope bug.

UPD: Tested with wayland via SDL_VIDEO_DRIVER=wayland env variable, no script modifications, everything looks fine
