Note: Do you need the NVIDIA proprietary driver on Fedora 29 Silverblue for a complete experience? Check out [this blog post][2] for pointers. ### Add the Flathub repository This process starts with a clean Fedora 29 Silverblue installation with a user already created for you. First, go to and enable the Flathub repository on your system. To do this, click the _Quick setup_ button on the main page. ![Quick setup button on flathub.org/home][3] This redirects you to where you should click on the Fedora icon. ![Fedora icon on flatpak.org/setup][4] Now you just need to click on _Flathub repository file._ Open the downloaded file with the _Software Install_ application. ![Flathub repository file button on flatpak.org/setup/Fedora][5] The GNOME Software application opens. Next, click on the _Install_ button. This action needs _sudo_ permissions, because it installs the Flathub repository for use by the whole system. ![Install button in GNOME Software][6] ### Install the Steam flatpak You can now search for the S _team_ flatpak in _GNOME Software_. If you can’t find it, try rebooting — or logout and login — in case _GNOME Software_ didn’t read the metadata. That happens automatically when you next login. ![Searching for Steam][7] Click on the _Steam_ row and the _Steam_ page opens in _GNOME Software._ Next, click on _Install_. ![Steam page in GNOME Software][8] And now you have installed _Steam_ flatpak on your system. ### Enable Steam Play in Steam Now that you have _Steam_ installed, launch it and log in. To play Windows games too, you need to enable _Steam Play_ in _Steam._ To enable it, choose _Steam > Settings_ from the menu in the main window. ![Settings button in Steam][9] Navigate to the _Steam Play_ section. You should see the option _Enable Steam Play for supported titles_ is already ticked, but it’s recommended you also tick the _Enable Steam Play_ option for all other titles. There are plenty of games that are actually playable, but not whitelisted yet on _Steam._ To see which games are playable, visit [ProtonDB][10] and search for your favorite game. Or just look for the games with the most platinum reports. ![Steam Play settings menu on Steam][11] If you want to know more about Steam Play, you can read the [article][12] about it here on Fedora Magazine: > [Play Windows games on Fedora with Steam Play and Proton][12] ### Appendix You’re now ready to play plenty of games on Linux. Please remember to share your experience with others using the _Contribute_ button on [ProtonDB][10] and report bugs you find on [GitHub][13], because sharing is nice. 🙂 * * * _Photo by _[ _Hardik Sharma_][14]_ on _[_Unsplash_][15]_._ -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- via: https://fedoramagazine.org/set-up-fedora-silverblue-gaming-station/ 作者：[Michal Konečný][a] 选题：[lujun9972][b] 译者：[译者ID](https://github.com/译者ID) 校对：[校对者ID](https://github.com/校对者ID) 本文由 [LCTT](https://github.com/LCTT/TranslateProject) 原创编译，[Linux中国](https://linux.cn/) 荣誉推出 [a]: https://fedoramagazine.org/author/zlopez/ [b]: https://github.com/lujun9972 [1]: https://fedoramagazine.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/silverblue-gaming-816x345.jpg [2]: https://blogs.gnome.org/alexl/2019/03/06/nvidia-drivers-in-fedora-silverblue/ [3]: https://fedoramagazine.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/Screenshot-from-2019-03-15-12-29-00.png [4]: https://fedoramagazine.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/Screenshot-from-2019-03-15-12-36-35-1024x713.png [5]: https://fedoramagazine.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/Screenshot-from-2019-03-15-12-45-12.png [6]: https://fedoramagazine.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/Screenshot-from-2019-03-15-12-57-37.png [7]: https://fedoramagazine.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/Screenshot-from-2019-03-15-13-08-21.png [8]: https://fedoramagazine.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/Screenshot-from-2019-03-15-13-13-59-1024x769.png [9]: https://fedoramagazine.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/Screenshot-from-2019-03-15-13-30-20.png [10]: https://www.protondb.com/ [11]: https://fedoramagazine.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/Screenshot-from-2019-03-15-13-41-53.png [12]: https://fedoramagazine.org/play-windows-games-steam-play-proton/ [13]: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton [14]: https://unsplash.com/photos/I7rXyzBNVQM?utm_source=unsplash&utm_medium=referral&utm_content=creditCopyText [15]: https://unsplash.com/search/photos/video-game-laptop?utm_source=unsplash&utm_medium=referral&utm_content=creditCopyText
