A few days ago, most fullscreen games launched via Steam began showing the title bar no matter what settings I have configured. I am not sure what would have changed to cause this to start happening. It seems that games running with proton work as expected, but games with native linux clients show the title bar.
Screenshot of example


I am running a 3 monitor set up (left=1920x1080, center=3840x2160, right=3840x2160) running with a GeForce RTX 2070 Super on the Nvidia v455 drivers.

As mentioned, a few days ago I was able to run games full screen as expected.
Things I've tried:



  • Downgrading the nvidia drivers to version 450

  • Launching with the '-fullscreen' launch option

  • Setting nvidia_drm modeset=1

  • Forcing Composition Pipeline

  • Enabling 'auto-hide dock' as suggested by RingGamesCompany


I am out of ideas. If anyone with more experience than I has any ideas, or if there's any additional information I can supply, I'm happy to do so.

I finally was able to solve this issue, thanks to a post on the /r/pop_os subreddit, I found the following issue that was logged with Valve: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/csgo-osx-linux/issues/2551


Based on this, it is a bug in the currently deployed version of mutter in the Ubuntu repository. The issue is found here: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/issues/1486


I downgraded the libmutter-7-0 and gir1.2-mutter-7 packages to the previous version via apt install libmutter-7-0=3.38.1-1ubuntu1 gir1.2-mutter-7=3.38.1-1ubuntu1


Games are now displaying in fullscreen as expected. I'll await the fixed mutter packages in the repo before upgrading again.
