are you actually getting the beta updates? the changelog beneath the software updates block is not going to ever really be accurate to what you're getting

termdisc•1/27/24, 5:20 PM

you should also answer this question

68xOP•1/27/24, 5:22 PM

no idea as to what version of the client it downloads

the notification with the gear icon and yellow exclamation mark is quite prominent and there's no way to disable it

termdisc•1/27/24, 5:22 PM

also my numbers are consistent with this, and I am on

:testing

:testing

with Stable client

termdisc•1/27/24, 5:23 PM

if your only indication about getting beta software is from that changelog, there isn't enough to show that you are in fact getting beta software

termdisc•1/27/24, 5:23 PM

in other words, the changelog in game mode is an unfixable liar

Ttermdisc in other words, the changelog in game mode is an unfixable liar

68xOP•1/27/24, 5:25 PM

I am curious as to what will happen if I apply the update

termdisc•1/27/24, 5:25 PM

Do it and find out

termdisc•1/27/24, 5:25 PM

People learn the ins and outs of Linux by experimenting and digging in

termdisc•1/27/24, 5:26 PM

Right now, you have zero actionable information about what that update is for

termdisc•1/27/24, 5:26 PM

Could be as simple as some flatpaks

68xOP•1/27/24, 5:34 PM

looks like you were right, the update/changelog was a liar

updating the client fixed the notification nag

CharlieBros•1/27/24, 5:46 PM

Indeed, however I didn’t get any errors after installing

68xOP•1/27/24, 5:48 PM

My notification went away after I just applied whatever update it required

CharlieBros•1/27/24, 6:16 PM

Hmmm the itch client is supposed to give me a captcha, but it just stays blank

CharlieBros•1/27/24, 6:16 PM

And I have like a bazillion games after I bought the racial bundle eons ago

HikariKnight•1/27/24, 6:19 PM

kyle removed it because driver has been replaced which should according to him avoid having to do the either/or driver solution that we did have

CCharlieBros Hmmm the itch client is supposed to give me a captcha, but it just stays blank

CharlieBros•1/27/24, 6:21 PM

Is there an alternative client for itch?

Nnokry56 Awesome. Thanks. I’m curious, is this a Bazzite specific bug or would this be on...

Kyle Gospo•1/27/24, 6:38 PM

Should be both, we don't modify gamescope in any appreciable way

CCharlieBros Is there an alternative client for itch?

Serious Table•1/27/24, 6:39 PM

I think Lutris or Heroic can also do it

SSerious Table I think Lutris or Heroic can also do it

Kyle Gospo•1/27/24, 6:47 PM

I use lutris for this purpose

Kyle Gospo•1/27/24, 6:47 PM

official itch client is sadly very bad

termdisc•1/27/24, 7:02 PM

I would also defer to Lutris for this for now. Heroic is best for the stores that it supports directly: EGS, GOG and Amazon

FalkorTV•1/27/24, 7:07 PM

I update the Bazzite for latest, and update for latest testing and i have broken Temp and usage on Lenovo Legion Go

KKyle Gospo I use lutris for this purpose

CharlieBros•1/27/24, 7:07 PM

I see, thanks for the suggestion!

FalkorTV•1/27/24, 7:20 PM

Anyone have solutions?
On V2.1.0 is okey, on 2.2.0 is broken

LelouBil•1/27/24, 7:55 PM

Hey, I'll get a new laptop soon and I am really excited about trying universal blue and all. I want to build a custom image so that I have all my customizations ready and versioned in git.

I'm currently setting up a fork of the ublue-os/startingpoint, can I use this to customize bazzite if I put in bazzite as a base image ?

LelouBil•1/27/24, 7:57 PM

Also I'm a little bit confused about the "Game mode" being mentioned on multiple documentation pages, what is it exactly ?

LelouBil•1/27/24, 7:57 PM

what does it enables

Shiina•1/27/24, 7:57 PM

This happens on PC for some reason too lol

termdisc•1/27/24, 8:04 PM

Sounds like a zenpower issue perhaps

Ttermdisc Sounds like a zenpower issue perhaps

Kyle Gospo•1/27/24, 8:04 PM

no longer shipping zenpower

Kyle Gospo•1/27/24, 8:04 PM

better replacement that preserves temp support

Kyle Gospo•1/27/24, 8:04 PM

likely a mangohud bug, should be fixed soon

termdisc•1/27/24, 8:04 PM

LelouBil•1/27/24, 8:30 PM

Is it fine installing bazzite for a development and gaming PC ?

LelouBil•1/27/24, 8:30 PM

and should I pick the deck or desktop image ? Is the fact that there is no "Game mode" in the desktop image will break something ?

Kyle Gospo•1/27/24, 8:31 PM

game mode is specifically the gamescope session, so desktop lacking that simply means it acts like a normal desktop install of steam on KDE/GNOME

Kyle Gospo•1/27/24, 8:31 PM

totally fine for dev work too

KKyle Gospo game mode is specifically the gamescope session, so desktop lacking that simply ...

LelouBil•1/27/24, 8:34 PM

okay, so the difference is that the deck image uses gamescope instead of another DE ?

Kyle Gospo•1/27/24, 8:35 PM

in addition to, behaves exactly like the Steam Deck

Kyle Gospo•1/27/24, 8:35 PM

where it boots to steam gamemode, and then you can boot to a kde/gnome desktop from it

LelouBil•1/27/24, 8:35 PM

okay

LelouBil•1/27/24, 8:36 PM

so what are you actually missing if you don't use gamescope (in the desktop image)

LelouBil•1/27/24, 8:37 PM

does HDR still work ?

LLelouBil does HDR still work ?

Kyle Gospo•1/27/24, 8:37 PM

HDR only works in game mode ATM, but the next release of KDE will support it via a vulkan layer

LelouBil•1/27/24, 8:39 PM

okay, but then if I want to use another DE or have HDR right now in games, I can still install and run gamescope manually ?

LelouBil•1/27/24, 8:40 PM

without too much problems ?

Kyle Gospo•1/27/24, 8:40 PM

DEs are best part of the image, if you don't want GNOME or KDE my suggestion would be to fork

semakusut•1/27/24, 8:42 PM

is the gnome gamescope still cant switch to window mode for ally

did you get a notification for the beta updates (similar to https://github.com/ublue-os/bazzite/issu
