Hi, I tried to play over Steam on OpenSUSE Tumbleweed and the terminal reported
the following error:

Fossilize INFO: Autogroup scheduling is not enabled on this kernel. Will rely
entirely on nice().

Autogroup scheduling needs to be enabled during kernel compilation. I checked
that on
https://github.com/SUSE/kernel-source/blob/15b4ad8fb5f18870bb9e4011a2bb53cbaefe8037/config/x86_64/default#L237 

I can see # CONFIG_SCHED_AUTOGROUP is not set, that's the origin of the issue.
So many distros enable that by default and I've never seen this issue with
Steam on distros where is set CONFIG_SCHED_AUTOGROUP=y

Examples:
Arch Linux:
https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/packaging/packages/linux/-/blob/main/config?ref_type=heads#L246

CachyOS:
https://github.com/CachyOS/linux-cachyos/blob/1d74c2037cd78f292fb6606708fa86ef14e02bd7/linux-cachyos/config#L251C31-L252C23

Could I ask to change that? Change config, build a kernel with
CONFIG_SCHED_AUTOGROUP=y, and make the OpenSUSE kernel and the whole distro
more friendly to gaming through Steam.
