It says on the Display section that it failed to load nvidia. Do you have Secure Boot enabled?

Make sure your games are installed on EXT4 hard drive/ssd format. If they are on Windows format, proton can glitch out. You have two options. Move said games to a Linux formatted drive, or https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/wiki/Using-a-NTFS-disk-with-Linux-and-Windows

Keep in mind if you format your drive to Linux you will delete everything on that drive. First just determine moving the game to your Linux drive fixes it.
