Hello @KevinMichaelDaley mounting another partition on top of the home directory of an active use sounds strange. Can you explain why you are choosing to do that after login instead of before?
Steam has support for multiple libraries and you can mount the second partition anywhere and add a current-user-owned folder on that partition to Steam by going to Steam -> Settings -> Downloads -> Steam Library Folders -> Add Library Folder.
Hi,
It is indeed a bit strange but it's never not worked before in any application. I should probably mention that I am using steam from flatpak; this is the only one that works with up-to-date nvidia drivers.
I tried doing that but it keeps saying "drive is read-only", even when I use a folder on the same partition it is installing steam games to.
Sounds like the same Flatpak issue as https://github.com/flathub/com.valvesoftware.Steam/wiki#i-want-to-add-external-disk-for-steam-libraries / https://github.com/flathub/com.valvesoftware.Steam/issues/55. Your issue is with the nature of Flatpak's sandboxing and not Steam.
Regarding nVidia's drivers, what issue are you seeing with them? The nVidia kernel module, 32 bit userspace, and 64 bit userspace need to have exactly the same version to work properly. On Ubuntu, it's not uncommon for libnvidia-gl-460:i386 (changing 460 to match the rest of the driver series) to get missed in a driver update.
Yeah that was it (on both counts). Feel free to close the issue I guess.
