Won't load to desktop after rebasing from atomic kinoite to bazzite

Hey, been desperately trying to leave Microsoft the last couple of days but been having complications. After trying every OS I managed to get Fedora Atomic Kinoite (42-1.1) to a desktop on my SSD. Bazzite wouldn't work though. Main issue is probably because my hardware: 14900 KF (no internal GPU), 4080TI, 32GB DDR5 ram that i had to unplug one stick for to get the install working. Also when installing Kinoite I had to add acpi=off to my initial install to get it working. I ran sudo rpm-ostree rebase ostree-unverified-registry:ghcr.io/ublue-os/bazzite-nvidia-open:stable immediately after initial boot of kinoite which seemed to download everything. On reboot it tries to reboot once, fails while initializing (it just shows a blank loading screen so no messages to share) and then reboots where it just shows a flashing line top left. ...
Solution:
So really annoying but I think I figured out a solution to my problem. In case others have problems getting the installer to start or booting to desktop after installing this is what I did: Hardware: 14900KF, DDR5 32GB (reduced to 16 for this), 4080 TI Installer - I added these to the grub loader on the linux line:...

Audio Problems

Hello friends, I am suffering with a problem with Bazzite. It is with the use of the microphone. When I enter a meeting there is a lot of noise, I can't even hear well. It seems as if I were a robot, and this doesn't happen to me in Windows. I am using the same computer, Asus TUF Gaming F15. I would like you to give me a solution, please.

AYN Loki RGB

Just loaded bazzite onto an AYN Loki Max. All good - and Handheld Daemon let me switch off the RGB which was fabulous. After sleeping and awakening, the RGB is back on breathing and Hardware Daemon does not switch it off at all, and the RGB controls built into big picture also do no work. Any ideas?...

Buzzing noise when starting proton games

I have wired headphones, connected to audio output on the PC case front. When starting a game from Steam that uses proton, I hear a definite humming-buzzing-static-interference noise. This noise is not completely constant, it becomes quieter and louder depending on, what I assume, the volume of the in game sound, sometimes even disappearing, but it consistently happens and is very noticeable, especially when launching the game. Notably, there are no other issues, like breaking or stuttering, just this noise. So far I narrowed it down to just Proton games, but not even every proton game (skyrim seemingly had no issues, maybe it correlates with how resource hungry the game is?). It doesn't happen with native music apps, web browsers and, importantly, native games. I tried everything I found on discord and reddit: changing delay (no effect), changing to ALSA (no effect), setting sampling rate (no effect), changing pulse quantum (it broke everything but I recovered). Where should I look at? I'm moderately confident in using Linux, but Linux desktop audio is not my field of expertise whatsoever...

Screen "corruption" after resuming from suspend

Most of the time when I resume my computer from suspend, the second monitor will show some sort of corruption. It's hard to explain, so I've attached an image (not mine) of someone who had a similar problem 9 years on Win8. When it happens, I've tried to turn the second monitor off and on again, but that makes both monitors stop receiving a signal. I've also tried adjusting the refresh rate of the second monitor, which also made both monitors stop receiving a signal. The only solution is to then to a hard reset for it to go back to normal. This is on a fresh (first) install of Bazzite. I have no such issues on Windows. Specs:...

[Claw A8] Rumble randomly stops working until EC Reset

The rumble randomly stops working in my A8 until I do a full EC reset. Unfortunately could not figure out if there is a certain trigger that makes rumble stop working. Putting to sleep and waking up is not it.
