I'd look up a guide on how to clone your drive for any other OS (e.g. SteamOS) because it's going to be the same process

Wave KaisenOP•12/26/23, 2:12 PM

i have seen already 2 videos mentioning this commands and failing cloning everything that is not the base os

BearFOX•12/26/23, 2:18 PM

Updating rn, but has anyone else had an issue with all non-steam games failing to boot in game mode on deck? This is latest channel, build from 20-12-2023 bazzite 39

HikariKnight•12/26/23, 2:19 PM

that command is correct in linux (as long as youre not botted into steamOS) assuming /dev/nvme0n1 is the SteamOS ssd and /dev/sda is the external ssd you are cloning the deck OS to

HikariKnight•12/26/23, 2:19 PM

always triple check the if= argument (input file) and the of= argument (output file)

HikariKnight•12/26/23, 2:21 PM

the process will take a long time, once you are done with the clone, the easiest thing to do to fix the "size" of the disk is to open up a program called "gparted" it will detect a disk size mismatch and ask you if you want it to fix it for you and then you just resize the partitions and youre done

XOmniverse•12/26/23, 2:27 PM

is there a way to get retrodeck to show filename in the list of games instead of the scraped name?

I have ROMs from different regions and it makes it hard to find the right one cuz it just lists the same name like 3 times

SummedKibbles36•12/26/23, 2:29 PM

Well hello there

SummedKibbles36•12/26/23, 2:30 PM

I'm helping @Robotta downgrade to 535

SummedKibbles36•12/26/23, 2:30 PM

My idea was to download the older version and rpm-ostree override replacerpm-ostree override replace with the older packages

SummedKibbles36•12/26/23, 2:31 PM

But it just classifies it as an inactive override

SummedKibbles36•12/26/23, 2:31 PM

Is this because it's a downgrade?

SummedKibbles36•12/26/23, 2:31 PM

Or are we missing something else?

SummedKibbles36•12/26/23, 2:32 PM

I'm used to doing local overrides for upgrades when I compile stuff (like, custom Mutters and XWayland) and I know rpm-ostree can't reinstall the same package version but what about downgrade using Override?

HikariKnight•12/26/23, 2:34 PM

you would have to make a custom image because of kernel modules so i would believe they would have to make a custom image
use non nvidia as base
copy what ublue nvidia builds do
use an archived 535 rpm instead of 545.

reason ublue doesnt do it is because we rely on rpmfusion which removed their 535 builds

HikariKnight•12/26/23, 2:35 PM

i cant be more specific since i havent looked at the nvidia images myself since i dont have anything nvidia that i use

hi all fixed issue i had last night.. notice there was update ran ublue-update getting an error: ublue_update.cli:ERROR | /etc/ublue-update.d/user/03-fleek-user-update.sh returned error code: 1, program output: [*] Update package index

no idea why thats happening or how to resolve it

Louis•12/26/23, 3:14 PM

because if i run ublue-update FLEEK_DEBUG=1 i get unrecognized argument. i ran /var/usrlocal/bin/fleek update -a to see the output : error:

ok, how do i do it when i am not booted in bazzite?

WWave Kaisen ok, how do i do it when i am not booted in bazzite?

HikariKnight•12/26/23, 3:23 PM

use a live usb of any other linux system, or remove the ssd and use 2 m.2 enclosures and do it that way

Wave KaisenOP•12/26/23, 3:26 PM

a live usb?

HikariKnight•12/26/23, 3:28 PM

an usb which you can boot from that will put you into a desktop linux system.
you will need a usb dock, keyboard and mouse for this no matter what unless you take the ssd out of the steamdeck and put both the ssds inside an eclosure each and do the cloning on a different machine (at which point /dev/nvme0n1 will no longer be the correct input file)

HikariKnight•12/26/23, 3:31 PM

the easiest will either way be a reinstall onto the new ssd, this is also true for SteamOS and is what valve recommends because it is easier

HikariKnight•12/26/23, 3:34 PM

make sure the enclosure supports 2230 m.2, not all of them do

Wave KaisenOP•12/26/23, 3:36 PM

the one i want from ugreen does

HikariKnight•12/26/23, 3:37 PM

if you are planning to use a separate computer you will need 2 enclosures (unless you have space on your motherboard and it supports 2230)
if you want to do it all from the deck you need a dock that you can use 1 usb enclosure with along with mouse and keyboard

Wave KaisenOP•12/26/23, 3:48 PM

i do have a dock, the official one, my plan will be: use a live usb with bazzite on it, format clean the internal ssd of the oled deck, clone into the internal ssd the older ssd from an enclosure, i shouldnt have any problem related to space since both older and new one will be 1tb, but probably i will have to increase the space since space degradation in a thing and in that case as you said i will use gparted

VValerie > Bazzite is a Fedora-based Linux distribution

tryhardsoccermomswag•12/26/23, 3:55 PM

I feel like i need to document the OCI container technology portion of this better. and have it easily appear to anyone who uses Bazzite. Like that's probably the coolest part of all of this and I feel like it gets lost sometimes.

Wave KaisenOP•12/26/23, 3:59 PM
