[SOLVED] Steam fails to start due to a bwrap/mount issue
Hi!
A little bit after recent Arch update to Plasma 6 (horray!) I've noticed Steam no longer starts.
Here's the console output:
❯ steam-runtime
steam.sh[49490]: Running Steam on arch rolling 64-bit
steam.sh[49490]: STEAM_RUNTIME is enabled automatically
setup.sh[49554]: Steam runtime environment up-to-date!
steam-runtime-check-requirements[49656]: E: Cannot run /usr/bin/bwrap: wait status 256
steam-runtime-check-requirements[49656]: E: Diagnostic output:

steam.sh[49490]: Error: Steam on Linux now requires the ability to create new user namespaces.
If the file /proc/sys/kernel/unprivileged_userns_clone exists, check that
it contains value 1.
If the file /proc/sys/user/max_user_namespaces exists, check that its
value is high enough.
This requirement is the same as for Flatpak, which has more detailed
information available:
https://github.com/flatpak/flatpak/wiki/User-namespace-requirementsIt seems like the problem might involve my fstab, so here it is:
# Static information about the filesystems.
# See fstab(5) for details.
# <file system> <dir> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>

# Roling Backup
UUID=a11787a5-de1d-xxxx /mnt/backup btrfs rw,relatime,auto,x-systemd.automount,user 0 2
# Windows
UUID=5C3E42xxxx /mnt/windows2 ntfs ro,noauto,user 0 2Is there anything I could do to fix this?
`# Rolling Backup` is something I mount from a script.
It's not mounted all the time, similarly `# Windows`.
Please help me figure this out.

Re: [SOLVED] Steam fails to start due to a bwrap/mount issue
This also happened to me sometime about 2 (or 3?) weeks ago.
I have a pretty simple plain fstab, so YMMV...
Anyway, I solved this way: removing Steam Linux Runtime and $ steam-runtime --reset (obviously, Steam will then re-download and re-install Steam Linux Runtime, let it do its things).
