Bazzite Gamescope Streaming to Steam Deck (SteamOS)

I’m running Bazzite-gnome-deck as a living room pc setup. When I go to stream games to my steam deck, running steam os, the stream only takes up half the screen on my steam deck. Has anybody experienced this? Or is there anything I should try?...

USB wifi adapter not working.

Today I just installed Bazzite and have very little experience with the Linux realms. I use a USB wifi adapter to connect to the internet. When trying to connect to the internet I could not find the adapter anywhere to connect to wifi. I search online for getting drivers and the only advice I could find was a link to a driver on github from years ago that seems to no longer exist. Are there any recent drivers? The adapter is a Linksys WUSB6300...

External Nvidia GPU

Hey all, I realize in advance the answer to this might just be "no", but is there any way to get nvidia drivers loaded in the "Handheld" bazzite image? I've got an AMD-based handheld computer but plug it in (via an exposed PCIe port) to an external nvidia graphics card. Everything 'seems' to work out of the box once I navigated my way to the desktop out of the extremely glitched out Game Mode, but I'm assuming it's probably just a basic VGA driver or something? If the answer is indeed a hard no, is it possible to have the same user profile (and maybe even installed programs/preferences, but that feels like a longshot) accessible across two different bases? (nvidia/desktop for when I'm docked, amd/handheld for when I'm not). Thanks!...
Solution:
try rpm-ostree rebase ostree-unverified-registry:ghcr.io/ublue-os/bazzite-deck-nvidia:stable

Keyboard issue

Since 1 hour my keyboard acts really weird. Some key presses are not registred, and some keys stay pressed. I didn't update or change anything onto my OS, I don't see where it can be coming from I plugged that keyboard onto my steam deck and everything is fine. I checked both keyboard config on the setting on my PC and steam deck and they are both the same (same Model, same delay on key repeat, same french layout) I restarted 2 times, updated the OS, changed port on my motherboard, nothing works the keyboard is called "Logitech K120"...

No audio on HDMI

I’m very new to any Linux based Os and installed Bazzite on a desktop computer (i5 9400f and RX 580). I set it all up on my monitor connected through display port and it all worked fine. When I moved it to my living room TV, where I intend on using it, and I can’t get the audio to work through HDMI. When the computer first boots I get a beep sound as the logo comes up but then nothing. Tried desktop mode to see if that changed anything but still no sound. Anything else I could try?

Game mode and Bluetooth

Using bazzite-deck and When I power on Bluetooth is fine during boot up, however when game mode starts Bluetooth stops working until I unplug/re-plug the adapter and then it’s fine again. If I’m in desktop mode and return to game-mode I get the same behaviour, Bluetooth USB dongle needs unplugging and re-plugging Is there a way to avoid or even automate this process as a workaround?...

How to install Github repositories (OpenTrack)

First of all, I am a complete beginner. I've read through the Bazzite documentation so far, although I don't understand everything. I would like to install OpenTrack from Github. A flatpak version would of course be best for me as a beginner. Unfortunately, it doesn't exist yet. The installation instructions in the OpenTrack wiki don't work with Bazzite. (https://github.com/opentrack/opentrack/wiki/Building-on-Linux) ...

HP Omen 16 Install issue...

Hey Everyone... I'm trying to install Bazzite on My HP OMEN 16 Gaming Laptop ( RTX 4060 | i7-13700HX | 32GB RAM | 1TB SSD | 240Hz QHD ) But everytime I try to install, I have to figure out how to go into terminal in grub, and go into nomodset, and the one time I installed it, I was unable to use the trackpad... I think it's something to do with it being a proprietary Elan Touchpad. If anyone can help me with installing it easier, and getting the Touchpad working properly, I'd be more than grateful!...

Xbox One Controller recognized by Steam, controller and inputs do not work in any game

As title says. Plugging controller in with USB-C and no batteries in controller. Have used it this way for many months like this on Linux Mint. When plugging the controller in, Bazzite makes the notification sound that a USB device has been plugged in and the X logo lights up. Steam shows the controller in settings and all of the inputs show up/work in the testing window. Upon launching any games, the controller does not work.
