Please describe your issue in as much detail as possible:

When I launch CSGO from Steam (downloaded from Flatpak and with Proton 7.0-3 enabled) on Fedora 36, the game goes to black screen, I still hear the game audio but the screen stays black.

Steps for reproducing this issue:

1. Launch CSGO from the application panel.

Got the same issue, downloaded it today, tried with -novid -nojoy -full -vulkan and without those commands, it goes to a black screen, no sound no nothing and crashes. Here is the gist

Arch Linux: 5.18.14-arch1-1 GNOME Shell 42.3.1 NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660 / nvidia-open 515.57-9 package AMD Ryzen 5 2600 Six-Core Processor

I don't know if you fixed it yet, I fixed it by changing Wayland to X.org on the login screen. Sorry for the late reply.

@mikajed try the next solution: https://www.protondb.com/app/730#3sdJcdGT5K

Additional libs should be installed. For to install packages libtcmalloc-minimal4 use command: sudo apt install libtcmalloc-minimal4

Go to the your CSGO installation and open the /bin folder. Uses file manage or terminal.......for example: cd ~/.steam/steamapps/common/Counter-Strike Global Offensive/bin

Copy the neded lib to the /bin folder: cp /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtcmalloc_minimal.so.4.5.9 libtcmalloc_minimal.so.0
