Hey all - looking at potentially moving over to Bazzite, but wanted to get a feel if it would satisfy a couple use case scenarios that I can’t seem to effectively work in SteamOS -
Particularly looking at getting docker setup so I can run an Everquest server emulator on the same OS as everything else. Currently I have SteamOS and windows 10 dual booted on a 2tb drive, but trying to whittle away at getting things working all on the Linux side of the house versus windows. The specific project I’m referencing in the link below. Although podman could work, I just don’t have the brain cells to translate his docker-compose over to a podman-compose;

we don't ship docker by default, but it can be installed as it is on #

there's also the podman-docker package which tries to implement docker on top of podman

either way, what you want is definitely doable one way or another

Info about disabling automatic updates would be useful to have on this page: https://universal-blue.discourse.group/docs?topic=36

Got it, thank you Kyle. Yeah I’ve tried 6 ways to Sunday getting docker running on SteamOS, but run into the roadblock of having to disable the read only, and then of course, having to deal with restoring after updates.

Valve are still updating Team Fortress 2 (TF2), and a bigger technical update is currently in the works that will bring 64bit and Vulkan support to the Linux version.

What would be the best way to install Bazzite, downloading the latest Bazzite ISO, or first installing Silverblue and then rebase to Bazzite?

CharlieBros•1/26/24, 1:42 AM

The moment I bring home my new shiny device, I'll immediately install bazzite

matt_schwartz•1/26/24, 1:46 AM

You should probably make sure to run the MCU updates while windows is still installed. I know BIOS updates are fine from external USBs but idk about controller firmware like that

Oh word

CharlieBros•1/26/24, 1:47 AM

Thanks for the advice @matt_schwartz , so what do you suggest, should I go straight to the Bazzite ISO, or should I go to Silverblue and then rebase to Bazzite?

matt_schwartz•1/26/24, 1:48 AM

I haven’t tested Bazzite on my Ally in a while but I think the normal install ISO is fine these days

CharlieBros•1/26/24, 1:49 AM

Alrighty then! I'll go ahead and start downloading the iso to flash it

CCharlieBros Alrighty then! I'll go ahead and start downloading the iso to flash it

Kyle Gospo•1/26/24, 1:52 AM

Basically if you have issues, just use the stock Fedora kinoite or silverblue installer

Otherwise the ISO is good

Since the rpm fusion repo's steam doesn't install correctly with rpm-ostree, and you're not using the steam flatpak, how do you (I.e. the bazzite project, not a bazzite user) get steam installed on the bazzite images?
