Si'm tired of fighting with windows to get my egpu to work and looking at quick google searches linux seems less pain
Kwhat model?
Sa1707 macbook pro
Sigpu and amd dgpu
Kshould work
Sbut by default booting anything else besides mac os. the Intel IGPU get's disabled
KI can't promise but I see nothing here that stands out as non-working
Sso the radeon DGPU becomes the "igpu" along with mux switch
Kin your case I would install stock silverblue or kinoite
Kand then rebase once you've confirmed that works
Swhat is the difference of silverblue or kinoite? just trying to read the github and stuff right now
Si just like how well proton works on my steamdeck and at this point linux gaming is literary a bettery experience than getting it to work on bootcamp windows LOL
Sand heard the peeps at the deck discord speak well of bazzite
KSilverblue = GNOME, Kinoite = KDE
KBoth are immutable Fedora like Bazzite
Sahh yes
Si was kinda thinking of tossing the steamdeck os on it but that might not be good idea?
Si'm not gonna use it as a desktop os
Sthat's mac os for
Si mean the deck/HTPC image
KSteamOS is very tailored to the Steam Deck
Kbazzite-deck will do the same thing with more hardware support
Kyou can use that on your macbook
Kif you want KDE like SteamOS, install kinoite and then rebase to bazzite-deck
Sah ye
Si'm not too experienced with linux environments so it's alot of googling XD
Si like how the deck has summoned alot more user friendly guides
Sshould i uh.. install bazzite with the egpu connected or can i do the connection later? @KyleGospo
Sit is a thunderbolt connection
Sso a uncommon setup
K@sebaskitten doesn't matter when, i'd do after
Sah yeah
Sbefore apple upgraded the firmware on older macbooks if you booted a non mac os with a egpu selected
Sit would not only disable the igpu but also the dgpu and thus no display
K@EyeCantCU update, it's not plymouth
Kand it works fine in a TTY
EThat's interesting. I wonder what's causing issues though. Can experiment in a little bit
TNobara 39 is out today https://nobaraproject.org/category/changelog/
TInteresting changes implemented
MKyle helped out with a lot of the OLED Deck support components 
as well as with transitioning to some of the packages that Bazzite uses
as well as with transitioning to some of the packages that Bazzite usesELots of exciting stuff with session select over there. Will definitely have a look. GDM on the Deck GNOME image would be nice
Mits been working great now that GE got it all figured out. ChimeraOS will most likely start using that method as well
Mlots of trial and error to get there lol
Mits my first time having a package included in an OS which is pretty cool, it was a good way to learn the RPM packaging process as a total noob
SApparently BCM43602 does not work on Linux

_so I have a question. do you guys create a new container for every app you install? or just one for each distro you need?
Kreally depends, usually i'll have one box per distro for stuff I plan on keeping long-term
Kif it's a one-off thing like dependencies to compile something I'll spin up a new box
_that's what I figured, but I wanted to be sure there wasn't a good reason to do seperate containers for each app
