You should only use rpm
-ostree for packages that don
't play nicely in distrobox
(such as VPN software
)

Stick to a minimal amount of additional layered packages

You can
--apply-live
--apply-live
to install software to the live system without rebooting btw

The reason it takes so long btw is because it
's effectively rebuilding your system image each time you layer a new package

Use it as little as possible

Does rpm

If you

'll handle them

Have you tried using qemu in a rootful distrobox
? Ive heard it works decently
, although havent tried it
G
Geechan

1/27/24, 2:36 AM
Not yet
. I doubt it would play nicely with GPU passthrough anyway

Maybe
, but it could

Do you know any good guides on qemu GPU passthrough on a hybrid graphics system
? It seems really daunting
G
Geechan
•

Not too sure with hybrid graphics
, unfortunately
. I mainly have experience with single GPU passthrough

Thats fair enough

I was just thinking if I already have an optimus laptop
, can
't I just run host with my iGPU and dedicate my dGPU to passthrough
?
G
Geechan
•
1/27/24, 2:41 AM
I
've heard it
's indeed possible
, but trickier than two dGPUs
