is there a way to persistently set the hostname to anything other than fedora on seemingly any edition of bazzite not installed on an actual steam deck?

Nvm I got it. Went into settings and clicked reset controller conf to default buttons work again which is weird cause I never messed with that.

How is so far on the LLG? I’m tempted to give a try

hostnamectl

hostnamectl

grassOP•11/19/23, 9:16 PM

I cant get it to stay after a reboot

HikariKnight•11/19/23, 9:17 PM

hmm give me a moment, since i originally had to change mine, i will try change it again

Ggrass I cant get it to stay after a reboot

HikariKnight•11/19/23, 9:21 PM

sudo hostnamectl hostname x

sudo hostnamectl hostname x

Replace x with the new hostname and reboot

grassOP•11/19/23, 9:23 PM

Ive done hostname x, hostnamectl hostname x, set it in gamemode settings, none work. it works on the deck, but not the desktop

grassOP•11/19/23, 9:24 PM

hostnamectl says it cant write /etc/home or something, Im away from that computer rn though

HikariKnight•11/19/23, 9:25 PM

there shouldnt be any changes that makes it not work on the desktop image but work on the deck image, considering the deck image uses the desktop image as base from my understanding

HikariKnight•11/19/23, 9:25 PM

shoot us the error when you are at the computer next

grassOP•11/19/23, 9:25 PM

its the deck image on descktop. I'll get the output in a minute or so

Ggrass its the deck image on descktop. I'll get the output in a minute or so

HikariKnight•11/19/23, 9:28 PM

thats pretty much what i use

HikariKnight•11/19/23, 9:28 PM

mine is slightly modified but not in any way that would impact that

grassOP•11/19/23, 9:33 PM

sudo hostnamectl hostname SpleenDeck
Could not set static hostname: Not allowed to update /etc/hostname.

grassOP•11/19/23, 9:35 PM

the non deck version on my laptop doesn't give the error but I havent rebooted yet do to pending download

HikariKnight•11/19/23, 9:40 PM

can you

ls -la /etc/hostname

ls -la /etc/hostname

HikariKnight•11/19/23, 9:40 PM

because it is odd that it wont let you change that

Bbouhaa ChimeraOS uses zenergy. That already has support in Mangohud

Woofah Rayet•11/19/23, 9:45 PM

https://github.com/boukehaarsma23/zenergy Would this be the correct Zenergy?

HHikariKnight can you `ls -la /etc/hostname`?

grassOP•11/19/23, 9:46 PM

-rw-r--r--. 1 root root 1 Nov 15 16:07 /etc/hostname

HikariKnight•11/19/23, 9:46 PM

permissions look fine

HikariKnight•11/19/23, 9:46 PM

try cat it

GGotchapine007 How is so far on the LLG? I’m tempted to give a try

Hazmat07•11/19/23, 9:47 PM

Its really good it's 95% out of the box IMO. Button mapping for the back buttons doesn't work (not a bazzite issue). Legion L +X can be either home menu or on screen keyboard, LL+A brings up QAM. TDP Slider works. You can also change power profile with LL+Y. The only thing thats wonky is the fps slider. We have the 10-60hz option on the latest update but 60 locks it st like 36FPS if you wanna go above that you have to disable frame cap. Still overall a very good and pleasant experience.

HikariKnight•11/19/23, 9:47 PM

should be just the hostname and a newline

grassOP•11/19/23, 9:47 PM

single blank line

HikariKnight•11/19/23, 9:48 PM

ok and how does your /etc/hosts file look like?

HikariKnight•11/19/23, 9:48 PM

oh nvm no longer needed with that

Ggrass single blank line

HikariKnight•11/19/23, 9:53 PM

should be able to just edit the /etc/hostname/etc/hostname file with the new hostname and reboot

grassOP•11/19/23, 9:56 PM

yeah that worked thanks

grassOP•11/19/23, 9:57 PM

it makes the errors go away when doing it any other way too

Ggrass it makes the errors go away when doing it any other way too

HikariKnight•11/19/23, 10:01 PM

probably needed to have something in that file for the commands to work

HikariKnight•11/19/23, 10:02 PM

i remember before you also needed to edit the hosts file and it sucked because it would make sudo act up on the 2nd edit

Woofah Rayet•11/19/23, 10:23 PM

I am not sure how to get zenergy working.

Sergio Rojas•11/19/23, 10:30 PM

I don't have a steamdeck; is it possible to run Bazzite on a desktop workstation?

HikariKnight•11/19/23, 10:30 PM

yes if you have an amd gpu (if you mean to have gamescope-session)

HikariKnight•11/19/23, 10:31 PM

if you mean to use as desktop only with the rest of the bazzite stuff then the desktop image is fine

Sergio Rojas•11/19/23, 10:37 PM

Yes, thank you I found the desktop image

SSergio Rojas Yes, thank you I found the desktop image

HikariKnight•11/19/23, 10:58 PM

use the nvidia image if you have an nvidia gpu obviously

matt_schwartz•11/19/23, 11:38 PM

I figured out a way to avoid using EasyEffects and Xvfb and instead just use pipewire’s convolver plugin via .config/pipewire/pipewire.conf.d/convolver.conf and an impulse file titled neutral.wav

This way, you can set convolver as your default sink and you’ll get boosted audio at a system level. The only issue I’m running into is trying to get it to work on Fedora (both Nobara and Bazzite).

When you change the volume with the hardware volume buttons in ChimeraOS while in Game Mode, the volume for the virtual sink gets adjusted accordingly. If you try it on Nobara (and I presume Bazzite as well), changing the volume with the hardware buttons or the UI both don’t work and instantly set the volume back to 100%. Any clues as to why this happens?

matt_schwartz•11/19/23, 11:39 PM

you avoid the performance drain you’d get using easyeffects/jamesdsp this way, plus it launches consistently rather than relying on an Xvfb server

HikariKnight•11/19/23, 11:40 PM

sounds like the same method we do for virtual surround

matt_schwartz•11/19/23, 11:40 PM

it probably is based off the same .conf file template

HikariKnight•11/19/23, 11:40 PM

probably

HikariKnight•11/19/23, 11:40 PM

just different wav file

matt_schwartz•11/19/23, 11:41 PM

does volume control work in game mode while using that virtual sink on Bazzite? If so then it narrows it down to a Nobara issue exclusively.

HikariKnight•11/19/23, 11:42 PM

no idea, my headset doesnt play super nicely with virtual surround sometimes and causes a loud ass boom so i disabled it after i wrote the just recipe

HikariKnight•11/19/23, 11:42 PM

and not at home atm so i cant check

matt_schwartz•11/19/23, 11:44 PM

cheers, appreciate the extra info. this is what I’ve been using on my Go, you move the pipewire folder to .config and make sure the path to your .wav file is correct in the .conf file.

pipewire-config.zip5KB

matt_schwartz•11/19/23, 11:44 PM

if the volume control issue gets sorted this could be huge. I never liked relying on easyeffects and Xvfb for a system wide solution

HikariKnight•11/19/23, 11:45 PM

i wont be able to test anything until uh let me check my calendar when i will be back home and actually have some free time, i swear this year has been the worst for scheduling for me

HikariKnight•11/19/23, 11:45 PM
