Very annoying graphical bugs that cover the screen

After I updated the firmware (and I even js reinstalled) I started having this issue where if I hold my cursor still, this weird thing happens. It’s usually only on one monitor, but it swaps. Doesn’t happen in windows or in gaming mode. I use the gnome desktop and an amd rx7600 non xt. Does this with vrr on and off.

PC enters emergency mode every time I boot up

I was playing a game with one of my friends and my pc crashed. When I tried to boot it up, I was kicked into emergency mode, I ran the command journalctl and grabbed as many pictures of error messages as I could. I'm not very experienced with Linux, and my one friend who usually helps me out with this stuff is unavailable today so he directed me here. P.S. Apologies if I used the wrong tag for this post...

[Bazzite] Blender prefs install issue

I'm having some difficulty setting up Blender on Linux using the download from Blender.org.

ujust install-opentabletdriver seems to replace / break tablet drivers in kernel - even when removed

Tested with 3 bazzite systems, it seems to be something in the ujust recipe causing the issue. System 1, the user ujust install-opentabletdriver, then plugged in their tablet. Tablet does not function, but is recognised in the opentabletdriver gui (but nono function), recognized with lsusb. System 2, works without installing anything, installing opentabletdriver from bazaar flatpak - recognises tablet, but does not function (same as system 1), uninstall the flatpak - tablet works in full seemingly using the kernel driver as before...

Steam Simply shows playing for a second & goes back to play....

How to reduce grub resolution?

On my 4k laptop, I have 2 problems: 1) the grub boot menu is in 4k - so it's all super tiny. 2) If I have TPM and secure boot enabled, it actually runs out of memory, and I've heard you can lower the resolution to fix that. So how do I do that on Bazzite? Most of the stuff the AIs tell me is bunk, and doens't work....
Solution:
I added this to /etc/default/grub:
