Hello @leslielg, there isn't a usable hint in that terminal spew.

Please copy your system information from Steam (Steam -> Help -> System Information) and put it in a gist, then include a link to the gist in this issue report. We might get lucky with the extended diagnostics information in there.

Thanks. Unfortunately, that looks like a fairly healthy optimus laptop, with the exception that Steam Linux Runtime - Soldier is having a hard time (https://gist.github.com/leslielg/1a9137cd22c8b89dce5fbed6adf62cf8#file-gistfile1-txt-L787). That wouldn't affect the native linux build of Factorio.

Maybe there's a file permission issue with /home/leslie/Ext/SteamLibrary?

Thanks Kisak, I remount the /home/leslie/Ext/ external disk, now Factorio (native linux game) can work. I also tried proton games, they work well too.
For issue "with the exception that Steam Linux Runtime - Soldier is having a hard time"
Does it matter? How to fix it?

It seems a bug of KDE partition manager, it mounts my external disk without exec option but remount in KDE partition manager with no change of mount parameter solves this issue.

If games using Proton 5.13+ is working, then Steam Linux Runtime - Soldier also has to be working now, because newer Proton is run inside it.
