tf2 crashes on arch linux while on other distros like debian and linux mint it didnt, i have the proper drivers for my 1660s and i have a ryzen 5 3600, what could be the problem? I deleted glshaders.cfg aswell and it still crashes
i am using the kde desktop environment and the turing+ nvidia drivers

Try to launch tf2 from command line and see what it prints to terminal when it crashes. Not sure exactly how to launch from terminal but I'm sure it's possible. Then your next bet is to ask on arch or r/linuxgaming forum

toads_tfdowngrade lib32-libx11 to 1.8.1

how do i do this, ive only been able to downgrade to 1.8.2-2, ive tried the steam linux runtime, proton experimental, proton 7.0-6, proton 6.3-8 compatability modes.
How do i downgrade to 1.8.1? I couldnt find a way anywhere.

https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=282586 op here says that 1.8.2-2 runs fine in tf2
but if you really want the older one, here you go: https://archive.archlinux.org/packages/l/lib32-libx11/lib32-libx11-1.8.1-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst

ps if you're downgrading, open up /etc/pacman.conf and add that lib32-libx11 to IgnorePkg line
