Unexpectedly switch from 41-gnome to 42-kde

Hi! I experienced something strange: my bazzite switched from gnome to kde. I wanted to update my nvidia drivers and ran rpm-ostree rebase ostree-unverified-registry:ghcr.io/ublue-os/bazzite-nvidia:testing. Also, I did ujust update. As a result I switch from bazzite 41 to 42, but now I have kde. - Is there a possibility to go back to gnome without any trouble? - Is there an explanation for this switch?...

How do I run a script on startup?

I've got a newbie question. I'm trying to add a script to run on startup and i normally do it through crontab but crontab isn't found? Is there a good way to run something on every startup? For context the script is just this command xmodmap -e "clear Lock" to allow the caps lock, which I've set to as backspace, to auto repeat when held down...

Failing to install r-linux through rpm-ostree.

I want to install r-linux to attempt file recovery. This is not an attempt to repair a corrupt drive, the reason I want this ability is because the program Ardour destroys my completed audio exports alongside project folders, and what I want to recover was victim to this an hour ago. Attempting to do so results in this error: Checkout rlinux-6.3.191253-1.x86_64: opendir(local): No such file or directory As I cannot find any search results for similar programs in Discover, I feel like I have no choice but to attempt to get this working. The terminal log is attached below....

Less Resolution Options in Game Mode

When I go into game mode, in display settings, I see less resolution and refresh rate options than I do in desktop mode. Is there a way to fix this?

I know I can do that with armory crate but there is no armory crate in bazzite so I’m wondering how I can reprogram the Hall effects joysticks? Thanks

Crash while downloading games

My bazzite desktop and gamemode is now crashing when starting a new Steam game install. No idea why but it just started happening today. Currently have over 40 games installed and I just bought the Last of Us part II and it threw a black screen as soon as it started downloading. And it reboots my entire PC back into game mode and if I don't rush to stop the download the gamemode then crashes and reboots my PC. I ended up canceling and retrying with the same result. I then tried a different game Lords of the Fallen and same result. It just randomly started happening and I really haven't changed anything since my last game install besides adding Cooler control and Razer genie to my computer. I've played all my games all day no issue and this strangely just started happening. I've tried running system update as well. I've also checked my Storage thermals and those never go above 45c so it isn't overheating due to usage. Specs RTX 4070 TI SUPER Ryzen 9 7950x3d...

Fatal error occured and installation has been aborted?

Decided to do a fresh install of Bazzite to see if I can fix my crashing issues, but this popped up during the installer process

Secondary Drive Requesting Password to Mount?

Howdy, I am experiencing an odd issue where one of my NVMe drives does not mount automatically while in the Steam Gaming mode after initial boot. Is there any way I can avoid having to type the password in desktop mode and just have it automatically mount without having to type in a password? Appreciate the help from the community! Here is my /etc/fstab for those who need it.``` /etc/fstab...

Bazzite Steam Deck image does not boot on Steam Deck

After flashing the image to a USB via DD, it looks like the live system isn't able to find the roots. This happens with different USB docks and different USB storage mediums. What could be going on?...

Surface Pro 2 crashes immediately and a question about older versions

Hello! I installed Bazzite on my Surface (using ventoy and grub2 mode like the guide says) and about 20 seconds after reaching the login screen or when I try to log in it crashes and only shows the "surface" boot screen. Hitting the power button does get a reaction: it shows "Bazzite" in the bottom with a little loading animation in the middle and then it shuts off. I guess that means it's not completely frozen? I thought it could be a KDE related issue but the gnome version does the same. Trying to launch it again doesn't show the login at all and directly goes to the infinite "surface" boot screen. ...

Sunshine/Moonlight issue

When I connect with Moonlight, I suddenly here what sounds like a device being connected/removed notification sound intermittently. When this happens, I experience brief stuttering. This wasn’t happening previously and I can’t figure out if a new release caused this or not because I wasn’t using Moonlight for a couple of months.

Steam Overlay No Longer Works

Hi all, Steam overlay is no longer working for me since updating to Bazzite 42. Using built in Steam (not Flatpak as I incorrectly stated in a previous ticket), never had any issues before the last round of updates. Shift Tab (usual command to open overlay) does nothing, and my in game FPS counter is not displaying. In steam settings, both overlay and fps counter are enabled. ...

Aya Neo 2021 Retropower 4800u Low FPS

Hi, I managed to install Bazzite, even though the setup was half off the screen 😄 Even so one of the issues that I have after install is that games have super low FPS that makes them unplayable and random lock ups. Hogwarts Legacy for example I get 12-15 FPS where as my steamdeck can do 40 FPS no problem. I know that this is a very old device in the grand scheme of things but I was expecting slightly better performance. Sometimes the whole device locks up too. The GPU seems to be at 99% all the...
