Hi all. I'm running CachyOS since last week and I haven't had that many issues tbh but the general consensus is that Arch based distros can break more easily and that makes me a bit uneasy or anxious. I'm not against troubleshooting but i don't enjoy fixing shit that worked the day before. So i'm thinking of jumping ship. Is there something i'm overlooking that i will be missing on Bazzite?

Reading about it, I will probably have to deal with flatpaks, appimages but I don't know if that's a bad thing. I have the option to do pacman containerised via distrobox if i want to get back into that?

My main goals are learning about linux (in general), a lot of gaming, coding/learning about python (but mostly for enjoyment) and learning about/running local LLMs.

tldr: what am I missing about the immutable concept of bazzite compared to cachyos

Hello guys, I have recently switched to bazzite and I seem to have this weird issue regarding a gray screen with 3 dots on it. I did some research and pressed the esc key to apprently see what the hold up was and saw some red lines reading 'job systemd-udevd.service/stop running' with time intvervals with shutting down for each line. Bazzite itself works fine, however this issue is annoying as it makes my boot time so much slower. If anyone knows what to do I would greatly appreciate the help.

I know these are getting annoying but Vaela v1.1.3 is feature complete! Only bugfixes and updates will be implemented from now on! 😄

Main Features:

• Video Wallpapers per monitor
• Float / Auto Tiling / Scrollable Tiling per workspace
• Radial Menu

Thanks for everyone who's tested it! 😄 Please feel free to report any bugs or any MASSIVELY exciting features you would like to add.

I play often, but also use my lapotop pc for personal and evryday use. I got a Canon i-Sensys MF4410. It's already difficult to make the Windows support the printer with the drivers. Scanning is relatively easy as u gotta use the software which is downloaded together with the usb-connection driver. But I occasionally print things, thus the wonder. Thank you.

Perhaps deleting the configs folder or something?

i dont want to reinstall everything.

I'm not new to Linux, and I genuinely want to leave Windows for good. I'm a gamer first, but I use this PC for everything.

The problem is I can never make it stick. Something always breaks, usually NVIDIA drivers on my RTX 4060, and I end up crawling back to Windows because I need a machine that works.

How do you stay on Linux when things go wrong? Any tips for making the switch permanent, and has anyone gaming on Bazzite with an NVIDIA card had a smooth experience? (I am not looking at dual booting)

And I assume appimages are still supported?

So i was trying to enable Gapps on waydroid but didnt finish the process and now waydroid doesnt star, i want to now if i can reinstall it somehow please help if you know anything or if you have the same issue

When I try to open it, nothing happens. It appears on the taskbar for a couple seconds, then closes. I have an Nvidia GPU and read that this could be a possible reason for this problem. I was trying to download a new browser and I had to do it through an application called Warehouse instead.

Is there any way to re add this feature to the newest version of Bazzite? Thanks in advance.

As the title says. About once per day lately when I close a game/app in Game Mode the screen freezes up and I have to hold the power button down to do a hard shut down, otherwise it will just stay like that.

Anybody else having this issue, or just me? Of note, this is running on a Legion Go 2 (Z2E).

Thanks!

Hi, hoping to get some input from those on Bazzite: have you been able to get into a Helldivers 2 match and have it be stable since the move to EAC?

Prior to the changeover the game was rock solid for me on Bazzite but now I'm getting constant crashes. Have tried everything on Arrowhead's FAQ to stop EAC instability with no luck.

Have tried:

Uninstalling and Reinstalling

Confirmed it's using Proton experimental

Deleting all files in the /bin and /data directories under the game path by hand and re-verifying files

Nothing has helped.

Wondering at this point whether it's something to do with EAC not liking the OS but the devs state that Linux compatibility should not be affected.

Anyone out there running Bazzite and still able to play HD2 without constant crashes?

Edit: I had tried Proton Experimental but I didn't realise that and "Bleeding Edge" are not the same. Have to list Tools in Steam instead of games, open properties of Proton Experimental, go to Betas and set it to "Bleeding Edge" that way to actually use it.

After setting that I managed to run a short mission from beginning to end where previously it was crashing within a couple of minutes of starting.

Been debating for a while but finally made my mind.

I have an old laptop and want to get away from windows.

My set up is an old alienware:

Intel i5-4200m 2.50ghz

8 GB of ram

Nvidia GT 750M

And 600 GB of storage

I downloaded bazzite but unfortunately the installer said my set up is unsupported. Anyway to change to or maybe look into a Linux that is better suited for me?

ATTENTION
Do not forget to run all the commands described in the releases page, even after reboot, otherwise your Turbo Light won't come up! 😄

This is just a repackage of the drivers for the Bazzite kernel, I have no knowledge of the driver itself so please don't create issues about it if you have a prolem with your laptop! Thank you! 😄

So, I want to change my home folder name. I found out that you cannot change it, but you can create a new user and use that instead. I created a new user but now I have to transfer all my files (including game data) on the new one, as well as change all the settings I've already changed on the main user. Is there a fast way to do any of that? Big linux noob here so please go easy on me 😅

I heard that lenovo stopped or discontinued driver support meanwhile the Xbox Ally received plenty that gave it better performance, does bazzite have optimizations that help it perform evenly with the Xbox Ally or is the performance the same as windows?

First, the backstory.

So last night I attempted to run the Bazzite Updater on my desktop and the whole thing just wouldn't boot past the ostree, Bazzite:0. Fans would run wild, lights would be on but nothing. Screens would even turn off. It would boot just fine when I reboot and go into Bazzite:1.

So I'm trying to figure out what could be causing the new update to just absolutely break and I asked the discord already, and right now they're leaning on a potential hardware conflict with the newest update and should wait for the next update and try again.

My worry is that if I wait for the next update and it doesn't work the working Bazzite:1 image would be overwritten by the new broken Bazzite:0 image which would leave me in a bind so I'm trying to at least narrow down the potential issues and one thing I want to get rid of is my virtual DP-3 display that I set up to use with Sunshine but never ended up using.

The problem is, I have no idea how I set that up months ago and I can't seem to figure out a way to completely delete it. I can disable it yeah but to avoid complications I'm trying to just completely remove it.

I've already searched the sub and I'm about to search some more, but I'm also trying to cook dinner and keep cleaning and I'm disabled so the cooking and cleaning is causing a ton of pain. If anyone has the solution to save me some energy so I can go to bed sooner I'd be really grateful.

Went to update Bazzite since I haven't done an update since the start of October and it returned this error about terra-source? Idk what that is. I'm assuming the bad signature part is about security measures or something. How do I fix it or remove the source of the issue?

I've recently updated tailscale on all my machines because of a new security update warning, current version on bazzite 44 is 1.98.8 and latest version is 1.104.2

`This machine is running a version with a known security vulnerability. It’s recommended to update to 1.104.2.`

If I do `sudo tailscale update` in bazzite, I get the following error

`ERROR: Fedora Atomic images utilize rpm-ostree instead (and is discouraged to use).`

and `ujust-update` does nothing (my system is up to date)

I succesfully done this on my fedora-kinoite laptop, here I have the tailscale package layered in rpm-ostree, and I have to add the tailscale repo

`sudo curl -fsSL` [`https://pkgs.tailscale.com/stable/fedora/tailscale.repo`](https://pkgs.tailscale.com/stable/fedora/tailscale.repo)) `| sudo tee /etc/yum.repos.d/tailscale.repo`

then execute `rpm-ostree upgrade`, and it worked.

But this method doesn't works on Bazzite, not even after adding the tailscale repo. I don't see the package layered neither. So here my 2 questions:

It's safe to install the layered package on top of the pre-installed package? Do I have to wait until Bazzite 45 to get the latest version of tailscale?

Quand je joue sur Bazzite, l'overlay de Steam qui donne les performances indique 4 Go de RAM sur ma carte graphique, alors que j'en ai 8.

On peut régler ce problème ?

Note: I play on the TV, but I switched to a monitor for better recording.
