Why does this keep happening when installing games through Heroic with Nvidia graphics?

This doesn't happen with an AMD GPU so what's the issue?!

Um, I thought it was obvious. The missing app icons.

I see what you’re talking about, but in no way would I be considering missing icons to be the subject of a vague support request.

this was not obvious to me

sounds unlikely its gpu dependent, probalby just fails to grab a useful icon

You can edit the .desktop file in

~/.local/share/applications

~/.local/share/applications

to point to whatever file. Look at what it is trying to set as the icon first and track down that file. It may just be pulling a bad file

At which point, you’d probably want to submit a Heroic log for it

O_o

This has happened a few times now. Alwayss the machine with Nvidia GPUs.

dry-scarlet•6/17/25, 6:48 AM

sure but these are just image files so probably some other issue those machines share

sour-pinkOP•6/17/25, 6:48 AM

I know this, I just wondered why it happens. Thanks.

are the systems the exact OS and DE and versions and everything? only the GPU is different?
