Hi Jonathan,
from the log and output of ls command it's obvious that the required
files in */nvidia/ folder are missing so it's some kind of installation,
configuration or compatibility problem.
Which Debian version are you using? How did you install Nvidia video
driver - from Debian repository or manually with Nvidia's installer?
Keep in mind that some MS Windows games require PROTON_HIDE_NVIDIA_GPU
parameter to be set in Proton. [1]
By the way, my experience with Proton is very positive but I thought of
to by an AMD video card.
Kind regards
