So is there supposed to be that many boot options in grub for Bazzite? Got 4, two for an older version and one of each has either ostree:1 or ostree:0

its a bug i believe that causes grub to duplicate the 2 ostree entries, just ignore it

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but is there any point in converting "home" from ext3 to BTRFS on Bazzite?

Kyle Gospo•12/12/23, 5:03 PM

You'd gain zstd compression from doing that, which helps with performance too

Awesome!

I was also wondering, minus Kyber, how much of this is really useful or already covered in Bazzite - https://medium.com/@a.b.t./here-are-some-possibly-useful-tweaks-for-steamos-on-the-steam-deck-fcb6b571b577

Here are some (possibly) useful tweaks for SteamOS on the Steam Deck

Unfortunately using Phillipp Richter's BTRFS doesn't seem to work on 39-testing. It can't see any directories.

Mmatt_schwartz I had to install in basic graphics mode on my OLED

Frozen•12/12/23, 5:14 PM

Did you install testing outright, or did you rebase after install?

FFrozen Did you install testing outright, or did you rebase after install?

matt_schwartz•12/12/23, 5:15 PM

install iso -> latest -> testing. This was a few days ago though. But I don’t think testing has the finalized patched OLED kernel quite yet.

Steam Deck images are now using some of the peformance tweaks from this Medium article.

    - Kyber I/O scheduling from BFQ
    - Disable watchdog
    - Raise memlock limit
        - Fedora already includes the 1000hz tick for the kernel & MGLRU.
        Once Valve solves their issue with CPPC in the Steam deck’s firmware the Bazzite can also utilize amd-pstate to save on battery.

Bazzite Buzz No. 5 IMPORTANT: MANUAL INTERVENTION REQUIRED If you installed a Bazzite image on any device before September 22, 2023 or used the older offline ISO then open a host terminal and enter rpm-ostree update, and wait for it to upgrade to the latest build.

Gotcha. I asked because I installed testing outright by changing the tag in grub, but it wasn't booting. Eventually did, though, looks like it's fine.

Yeah, I guess I forgot from when I installed it on my old Deck, lol, my bad.

matt_schwartz•12/12/23, 5:20 PM

I’ve been on Nobara myself but try to help troubleshoot stuff that applies to Bazzite too in the process of OLED support being added

Frozen•12/12/23, 5:21 PM

Oh, I didn't know Nobara had Deck support, that's awesome.

matt_schwartz•12/12/23, 5:23 PM

lotta teamwork between the two went into getting support set up as fast as they could. very impressive stuff.

Acuma•12/12/23, 5:27 PM

@KyleGospo Thanks! I'm still doing a lot of reading and updating about everything. Some stuff I couldn't find info on. Also trying to fight against ADHD and remember things I've read is a nightmare sometimes

I mean, no homo but I'd be gay for the community Devs. They're literally what's making my Deck experience 20 times better

Welp, seems like no matter what I do the Deck defaults to the Windows Boot Manager every time

Kyle Gospo•12/12/23, 6:19 PM

That doesn't touch your home directory, Fedora defaults to btrfs on home. That patch's only responsibility is the MicroSD card (Making steam format them as BTRFS and mount BTRFS partitions)

Kyle Gospo•12/12/23, 6:19 PM

What issue are you having exactly? Home folder should be BTRFS by default unless you manually partitioned, which isn't recommended

Kyle Gospo•12/12/23, 6:23 PM

1: Performance Governor - We use powersave w/ amd-pstate which is more efficient.
2: MGLRU is enabled by Fedora, got that.
3 :Watchdog is disabled
4: Memory lock is tweaked for RPCS3
5: Kyber I/O scheduler is used
6: File access times disabled
7: THP is not used, additionally we don't use a swapfile and rely on zram with zstd
8: Kernel is using 1000hz tick

Jesus Christ! I literally changed the efibootmgr option to boot grub on next launch after changing all the EFI options to be correct. Turn off the Deck, start it and it loads Windows

I can install standard Fedora packages right ?

My understanding is I can set it up to boot straight into Steam big picture mode, but then go into the desktop to do other stuff

Is there a way to do that if I can't see the quick settings?

FFrozen Is there a way to do that if I can't see the quick settings?

Kyle Gospo•12/12/23, 7:10 PM

set it as your global

Kyle Gospo•12/12/23, 7:10 PM

it'll use that unless you specifically changed it

Kyle Gospo•12/12/23, 7:10 PM

disable unified refresh rate in system display settings

Kyle Gospo•12/12/23, 7:10 PM

so 90 is an option

Frozen•12/12/23, 7:16 PM

You can hit 'e' when you boot the installer to edit the boot command and change the tag from :39 to :testing. That's what I did, worked great.

Also be sure to select basic graphics mode or the installer won't fit on the screen.

Cyde042•12/12/23, 7:18 PM

Ahh, that's all I needed! I actually installed 39 yesterday with the borked screen and saw wifi wasn't working. Thanks
