Hi there, everyone. I have been using Moonlight and Sunshine on my previous devices for a while, but now that I've been using Zorin, I've run into some issues. My Zorin laptop is running Sunshine, but every time I try to use it, an error pops up that says:
The error you are seeing when running this command relates to readlink not being provided any arguments, which translates to "it can't find the executable". Based on that, and the screenshot from Brad, I'd say you installed this as Flatpak. Can you confirm this is the case?
Although I don't think this makes much sense. I'd recommend following up with Brad on this, as he'd know (assuming he's the developer on the project) whether this is the correct path or not.
Personally, I'd recommend installing using the Debian native package directly. If you want to try this route, make sure to uninstall the Flatpak version before. You don't technically need to do this, but it's better not to have duplicates.
It seems I'm not able to uninstall the Flatpak Sunshine, it just keeps staying behind no matter how many times I try to uninstall it from the store. Any other options?
But I don't know if you have installed the required additional package (or whether it was also installed during the installation via gnome-software). This could also be the reason that the flatpak doesn't work when it is missing. To install the additional package run:
"flatpak run --command=additional-install.sh dev.lizardbyte.app.Sunshine"
and then
"sudo -i PULSE_SERVER=unix:/run/user/$(id -u $whoami)/pulse/native flatpak run dev.lizardbyte.app.Sunshine"
But as @zenzen wrote using the .deb package would be the best.
I also spotted 'streaming' in your post. If tou are logged in with the Wayland compositor streaming is unlikely to work. I would change to Zorin on xorg at login screen.
