PSA for openSUSE Tumbleweed users wondering why Proton doesn't launch properly on a fresh install

OC text by @heythatsprettygood@feddit.uk

Had to deal with this recently. The cause is openSUSE's move to SELinux on new installs, which by default blocks the required permissions for the RPM version of Steam. You can correct this with these commands:

ausearch -c 'steam' --raw | audit2allow -a -M my-steam to create the permissions file and
semodule -X 300 -i my-steam.pp to apply it.

Hopefully this saves someone else from the wild goose chase I went on earlier.

Why? The console just launched. One would expect the initial sales numbers - both consoles and games - to be incredibly valuable information at this stage. Opening weeks are measured for like…every product launch

As the article says, the numbers especially matter in the context of the consoles sales numbers, which are incredibly high.

It will be valuable information when we have more data points to compare it against later. The console's high initial sales may very well have little to do with anything except how many Nintendo had available, for instance. It could do Wii U numbers (unlikely), or it could be a mega success, or anything in between. The third party sales might be reflective of the fact that the games are all older and available on other platforms, or it could be that customers are strapped for cash after a higher console purchase price, or any of a number of other reasons. I would just encourage people not to make a narrative out of this yet.
