P99 servers don't like Linux machines. You'll have to use a VPN if you're getting a blank list. Specifically you'll use OpenVPN from any service you'd like.


--- Follow this install guide but use the bottom method to get pacman to work.

--- To get OpenVPN supported on Steam Deck

***** Step 0. Go to terminal and type passwd and set an !!! easy to remember !!! system password


1. make a new text file called "InstallOpenVPN.sh" (the .sh part is the important bit)
2. copy the following into the text file:

#! /bin/sh
sudo steamos-readonly disable
sudo pacman-key --init
sudo pacman-key --populate
sudo pacman -Syu
sudo pacman -S networkmanager-openvpn
sudo steamos-readonly enable

3. You have to switch the script to executable.

4. Open a terminal window from the folder containing your script, then run the following command:

sudo chmod 744 installOpenVPN.sh
(This is where you use that password)

5. Run the script to install everything from terminal.

sudo ./installOpenVPN.sh

6. Follow prompts, test VPN.

WARNING: These settings get reset on any system update and you'll have to repeat the 10s install process periodically.
