Ubisoft Connect Won't Let Me Login

Hi, I had been running Ubisoft Connect via Lutris successfully for months, but today, I was updating a game and then stopped Ubisoft Connect while doing other things. In the evening, I tried to play an Ubisoft game when I couldn't even start up UC anymore. The launcher kept crashing. I switched from wine-ge-8-26-x86_64 to Proton-Experimental and then the launcher worked, but whenever I try to login, it says that there was a problem logging in. I installed other versions of Wine, like wine-10...

LUKS for storing sensitive files.

I have recently moved from windows to bazzite and in windows I always used veracrypt to create a small encrypted container to securely store documents and other sensitive files. Now that i'm using bazzite, I understand LUKS is the default encryption solution so want to know how I can go about achieving the same thing in Bazzite but with LUKS? I saw there is an app called LuckyLUKS that can do this but I'm not sure how to layer it into bazzite?...

Does anyone know if it is possible to get the new steam performance overlay in the Gamescope session rather than the typical levels 1-4 of mangohud profiles that are inherited from the steam deck? The overlay I am referring to is the one shown here: https://www.gamingonlinux.com/2025/07/steam-beta-upgrades-the-in-game-performance-monitor-for-linux/...

Unable to install bazzite on framework 13

I'm trying to install bazzite on my framework laptop (intel) and keep getting the issue in the image. I've tried turning secure boot off, using the intel iris and arc downloads, both have come up with the same issue. It seems to hang on installation for a couple minutes then throws this error. I've got a i7-1260p with fedora and windows currently installed. I've given bazzite 120gb temporary and plan on replacing windows with it on successful tests. Do you know what could be causing it?

Correct Way for installing driver for Kyocera M5526cdn?

I use a Kyocera Ecosys M5526cdn for printing and scanning. The printig part is easy to setup with system settings and the recomended IPP driver. But this can not controll the scanning function of the machine. Kyocera provides driver for Fedora as .rpm which sould be insatlled using the "yum install" or "dnf install" commands, those are not available on bazzite. So my questions are: how should I corretly installe this driver rpm in bazzite? Is rpm-ostree the right command for this matter, or should I use something else? Or is there a completly different solution to get the scanner working?...
Solution:
yeah those aren't on fedora atomic but rpm-ostree install is usable for this purpose

bazzite-dx incompatible hardware? (Framework laptop with 11th gen Intel)

I'm using a Framework laptop 13 with 11th gen Intel and in the Bazzite download page it says that my hardware is not supported by the -deck image. So I installed the regular one. Then I rebased to -dx because I want to use VS Code, and was surprised that it's based on the Bazzite -deck image. => Does it mean my hardware is not supported, like the Bazzite download page said? Which issues should I expect? Or if there are no issues, why does the Bazzite download page say so?...
Solution:
Just to confirm, logging into Steam Gaming Mode worked fine on my 11th gen Intel Framework. And even going back to the desktop from the Steam UI worked fine, no need to restart. One weird thing is that on the login screen there were two entries for the mode, both with (Wayland). I just tried the first of those....
