From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Hi, I setup RetroArch from Steam on my Fedora machine that is my daily driver since 3 years. It works tremendously well if I run in directly from my computer, but the problem starts when I want to stream it to my TV on the other room. RetroArch launches on my computer screen and takes in any input received through the in home streaming connection just fine, it looks fine on my computer screen, but on the other end on the TV I get only a black screen. If I switch RetroArch to compatibility mode on proton experimental (that is - force to use the Windows version instead of Linux native), the stream works perfectly but the cores won't load and this is far from a perfect solution anyway.

I wonder if anyone knows what the issue could be?

I'd guess retro arch is running as a Wayland client. Try to force it to use Xorg / XWayland or read this https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/6148
