Shadow on Ubuntu 20.04
Hey there, I switched today from Windows 10 to Ubuntu 20.04 and got some problems with Shadow. There is already one thread here on reddit, but nothing helped so far (https://www.reddit.com/r/ShadowPC/comments/gey96n/ubuntu_2004_lts/) I always get a R-300 problem, even after I installed the newest geforce drivers... Also I've tried the beta client - but it also throws an error.
Anyone got some experience with Ubuntu 20.04 + Shadow?

OK, it runs on 18.04 now - and it seems that this fix would work for 20.04 too. What I did: Installed this script: https://gitlab.com/aar642/libva-vdpau-driver
Then instead of having the R-300 error I had the L-100.
Disabled Autoupdate of graphic driver in the shadow setting menu" Worked.

To be honest, I found Shadow Linux client pretty terrible experience.
Usually, I just run the Android client in an emulator / on a phone in the background while I either use the Parsec client or Steam Remote Play to connect to my Shadow from my Linux box instead.

Hm I dont have any problems on Ubuntu 18.4 on my working Laptop, runs smoothly. But im downgrading from 20 to 18 now, hope it will fix the problems I have atm on my homepc. Still, nice work around :D a friend of mine plays also over his Android Phone an with a dockingstation.
Same issue with ubuntu 18.04... Man, it works on windows but not on ubuntu - strange
