My Experience Using Bazzite on the 64GB Steam Deck

This is not my Steam Deck but I needed a nice picture. Intro I have been using Bazzite on my stock 64GB Steam Deck for the past month now, and tested it previously before Bazzite had ISOs. This post demonstrates the experience of using Bazzite on unsupported hardware. The issues encountered with Bazzite on a stock 64GB Steam Deck are not excl...

if it is going to be obselete soon and is going to be difficult to support, there is no point of supporting it.

Ddnkmmr I successfully installed steam on stock kinoite

but don't they use the same libraries?

So the first issue is we have something here pulling in glibc32 which appears to have been replaced by glibc.i686. So that package will need to be tracked down. Alternatively, removing it immediately installs the correct package for me. Pipewire stuff is recurring and conflicts on occasion

we gotta get the builds fixed soon since we don't get any security patches when the oci builds are not being built successfully

I just upgraded my lenovo 512GB to 2TB and installed Bazitte-deck but GameScope will not start and I have black screen on boot up

moe•11/28/23, 5:19 PM

kinda offtopic but anybody have an 8bitdo ultimate (switch version) with bazzite connected and can tell me if the back buttons can be bound and if gyro works?

the black screen only happens occasionally on a fresh installation, solutions are to either to temporarily attach an external display, or the following:

(Copy-paste) When you have a blank or frozen on "Verifying Installation" screen:

CTRL + ALT + F2 to open a terminal. Login w/ your user

In terminal:

steamos-session-select plasma

steamos-session-select plasma

to get back into Desktop Mode

click on the return to game modereturn to game mode icon on your desktop.

for some reason, the black screen issue resolves once you open game mode at least once from desktop mode.

EyeCantCU•11/28/23, 5:39 PM

Wasn't aware this was a problem. WIll definitely look into that

EyeCantCU•11/28/23, 5:40 PM

Unsure if it would work or not given it's the Switch version. We may need Nintendo HID. Worth a shot though

MikeNS•11/28/23, 5:40 PM

I just reinstall, let me see if that happens again

Aru•11/28/23, 5:41 PM

the issue completely goes away once you fix it at least once

moe•11/28/23, 5:42 PM

Damn I really wish there would be a way to say " hey this is the 8bitdo controller. here are the extra buttons. have fun" instead of what we have now which is basically "hey this is a generic xinput device in switch mode. its a switch controller. screw your extra back buttons"

moe•11/28/23, 5:42 PM

but thats a steam issue

EyeCantCU•11/28/23, 5:44 PM

Not a Steam issue or even an Xpad issue (the driver responsible for handling controllers). You can get controllers fully working via Xpad but you need to put in the time to implement support for it. Not the friendliest thing in the world but certainly not an issue with the solution we have

moe•11/28/23, 5:45 PM

Maybe I'm misunderstanding something but steam only knows xbox/switch/playstation and steamdeck controllers as native or am I wrong?

EyeCantCU•11/28/23, 5:46 PM

My bad in interpreting what was being said

moe•11/28/23, 5:46 PM

no worries

moe•11/28/23, 5:47 PM

would be cool to see a "legion go" controller in steam though ^^

EyeCantCU•11/28/23, 5:47 PM

extest is pulling it in

I doubt Valve would be against ssomething like that if OEMs cooperated with them on solutions but I would wager OEMs don't care

moe•11/28/23, 5:49 PM

would be cool

MikeNS•11/28/23, 5:52 PM

Will it easier just run konsole after fresh install and set the gamescope

Aru•11/28/23, 5:53 PM

err, not sure if it will fix the problem on fresh install, but you can try. why not try hitting the return to game modereturn to game mode icon on fresh boot?
