Youll also straight up get every sign in the terminal that it should be recognized and it still won't work in any game, not with any flag or whatever added to steam either
Oh I see, if you need to run stuff that is not working out of the box, like gaming peripherals, an immutable distro probably is not the right choice... That's good to know, and probably will always be the tradeoff, but you get a distro that is very hard to break on the plus side...
