Proton Experimental Fixes Black Screen on Steam Deck, Addresses a Few Proton 8 Regressions

No new games are playable with today’s Proton Experimental update, but nearly a dozen bug fixes have made it in. If you’re on Deck and play Last Labyrinth, there should no longer be a black screen.
A few regressions from Proton 8 have been fixed, including:
- steering wheel crash fix for BeamNG.drive
- flowchart crash fix for Cafe Stella
- Marvel’s Spider-Man Remastered respects controller input
- splash screen crash fix for Indiana Jones and the Emperor’s Tomb
Along with this are fixes for Creativerse, The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing, and Nosferatu: The Warth of Malachi (with a performance improvement). Finally, the DXVK HUD should now properly display the correct git revision.
See the patch notes on GitHub.
