Ubuntu 21.04, followed the guide here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rv3ZXA4FNFk

What additional information would be useful to know?

SC:FA runs fine when I launch it from steam or with a script.

The problem is using the ~ for /home/fred

Use this to launch instead:

/home/fred/faf/run "%s"

Hope this helps and your username is fred
