In case you encounter a VAC verification issue.
- Steam -> CSGO -> properties -> betas (chose the newest one “1.38.3.6 - 1.38.3.6”) if no download happens, choose demo.
- launch the game. Since I chose demo, I couldn’t launch the game.
- close the game
- Steam -> CSGO -> properties -> betas (chose the actual patch “NONE”) That works for me, hope it will work for you too! 🙂

I play csgo on Linux and get this once in awhile. Restarting steam tends to fix the issue.
Can confirm, Steam restart unfucks the game.
Had that on Garuda, reboot, restarting steam, even booting into debian didn’t fix it. (Debian with totally different user directory and everything)
Then about a week later I put in a ticket with valve, was told to open a ticket on their GitHub for Linux, and before I could do that, the issue magically resolved itself. Very strange.
With the amount of different solutions floating around, the issue is most liked server side. I have the problem quite a bit. What I found that works is starting up a local not game, then trying again. No need to reinstall.
