So, then the million-dollar question. Can I layer the nvidia driver on my current bazzite-gnome imag

So, then the million-dollar question. Can I layer the nvidia driver on my current bazzite-gnome image?

I'll have to read more on ostree snapshots.

©TriMoon™•2/25/24, 5:55 PM

Nope i was correct:

©©TriMoon™i got the 7950x3D... if i didnt mistype that models name

anoldguyOP•2/25/24, 5:55 PM

I went with the non-x 7900. 65w cpu good enough for all my needs.

You probably did the right thing....
I hoped it would have been strong enough but...ahh well

Isn't there a Bazzite-nvidia-gnomeBazzite-nvidia-gnome version?

©TriMoon™•2/25/24, 6:01 PM

Or is that what SilverblueSilverblue actually is?

©TriMoon™•2/25/24, 6:01 PM

so many OCI variants lol

anoldguyOP•2/25/24, 6:03 PM

There is! But I'm not sure how that will play with my AMD card. And...I'm hesitant to rebase, never having done it before.

©©TriMoon™Or is that what `Silverblue` actually is?

anoldguyOP•2/25/24, 6:04 PM

I'm def not the person to ask. I'm so new to this distro and approach. Loving it, but very new.

Niklas ⚡•2/25/24, 6:06 PM

At least tabby can be run on Apple silicon Macs

anoldguyOP•2/25/24, 6:08 PM

Oh yeah. I use it at work on my laptop. SO GOOD. And fast. I run both DeepseekCoder-6.7B and Mistral-7B. mods hits Mistral, and the VS Code plugin uses DeepseekCoder.

anoldguyOP•2/25/24, 6:10 PM

Ok, going to follow the instructions here for rebasing (https://universal-blue.org/images/), here's hoping for the best.

Glad I have a full backup, just in case.

LelouBil•2/25/24, 6:16 PM

Hey, on my system I can't log back in after sleep

LelouBil•2/25/24, 6:18 PM

and now I just get a message about the lock screen being broken

LelouBil•2/25/24, 6:18 PM

but ttys are just blinking cursors

anoldguyOP•2/25/24, 6:28 PM

Hmm. I had a 'staged' layer, so I attempted a reboot, and now I can't login to gnome. I can get a pty, and login on the console, but gdm hangs after I enter my password, no session. No interesting log entries in journalctl -xe -u gdmjournalctl -xe -u gdm except an entry for setroubleshootsetroubleshoot not being able to write to /var/lib/setroubleshoot/setroubleshoot_database.xml/var/lib/setroubleshoot/setroubleshoot_database.xml

anoldguyOP•2/25/24, 6:29 PM

Oh, hmm. There is a gnome-shellgnome-shell error: g_error_free: assertion 'error != NULL' failedg_error_free: assertion 'error != NULL' failed. But I have no context to know where that's coming from.

Kyle Gospo•2/25/24, 6:37 PM

Try booting your previous image

Kyle Gospo•2/25/24, 6:37 PM

See it that works

Aanoldguy I went with the non-x 7900. 65w cpu good enough for all my needs.

Eeyore_Syndrome•2/25/24, 6:38 PM

7950x but only because I got a bundle deal at Micro Center last November lol.

And I didn't wanna deal with split P-Core issues.......

anoldguyOP•2/25/24, 6:39 PM

Sorry, I already nuked my ~/.config/gnome* stuff and rebooted. It appears I'm back in. Very weird. Also, I don't get a list of images on boot? IDK if that's my motherboard going straight to graphical boot or what.

Kyle Gospo•2/25/24, 6:39 PM

Deck image or desktop?

Eeyore_Syndrome•2/25/24, 6:39 PM

My grub is hidden by default... And I'm okay with that. On desktop.

anoldguyOP•2/25/24, 6:40 PM

desktop.

Aanoldguy desktop.

Kyle Gospo•2/25/24, 6:42 PM

Weird, grub should be working on that image

Kyle Gospo•2/25/24, 6:42 PM

We hide it on deck but it's easily restored with a ujust command

anoldguyOP•2/25/24, 6:48 PM

So, let me just pause here and say that it is amazing that you all are so willing to help. But I fully acknowledge that I'm using a new release of a slightly experimental OS that I am completely unfamiliar with, so 99% of this is on me.

Fayne 🌈🐱•2/25/24, 6:49 PM

hey, what's the best way to remote desktop into Bazzite on Deck? I can't get either RustDesk or Steam Link to work.

Sabrina~(Jen)•2/25/24, 6:50 PM

wanted to ask how do I setup waydroid to work on game mode?

Fayne 🌈🐱•2/25/24, 6:53 PM

Steam Link is just a black screen and RustDesk just has a glitchy screen.

Aanoldguy Ok, going to follow the instructions here for rebasing (https://universal-blue.o...

anoldguyOP•2/25/24, 6:53 PM

Ok, so following these steps, I ran rpm-ostree reset, which removed several layered packages. There's no database of layered packages, I'll have to manually layer those back on after the rebase, right?

KKyle Gospo Oh good, I'm glad that fixed it

anoldguyOP•2/25/24, 6:58 PM

That didn't fix it. But I did figure out what it was. My shell was configuring ssh-agent, and it was prompting for a password. Dropped the ssh-agent bit into a guard for interactive shells, and all better. I hit the issue again after I restored everything I had removed, and stumbled across it.

Fayne 🌈🐱•2/25/24, 7:11 PM

Is there somewhere I can suggest a

command?

FFayne 🌈🐱Is there somewhere I can suggest a `just` command?

Kyle Gospo•2/25/24, 7:11 PM

here's fine, if it's complicated a github issue will let us look it over

Fayne 🌈🐱•2/25/24, 7:13 PM

just

command to mass delete Steam shortcuts from the app launcher would be nice.

anoldguyOP•2/25/24, 7:17 PM

Followed the instructions, got the right outcome. Amazing.

@Kyle Gospo I wasn't sure that switching to the nvidia image would still let my AMD gpu do gaming duty, but it runs BG3 fine, and I can now investigate layering on the nvidia container toolkit since I have a driver. If I want rocm back, I think I'll have to layer that on, too.

Eeyore_Syndrome•2/25/24, 7:18 PM

Steam Desktop Mode Scaling seems to be a solution for ui scaling w/out making extra steam shortcuts
(I myself have 3 now from not doing it the correct way oopsie-doopsie.)

Fayne 🌈🐱•2/25/24, 7:19 PM

No, I'm talking about game shortcuts.

Fayne 🌈🐱•2/25/24, 7:20 PM

These shortcuts.

Fayne 🌈🐱•2/25/24, 7:21 PM

I never use them since I launch my games through Steam, but Steam creates them for every game by default.

Kyle Gospo•2/25/24, 7:28 PM

you can remove them from ~/.local/share/applications

Kyle Gospo•2/25/24, 7:28 PM

and I just disable that in steam

Fayne 🌈🐱•2/25/24, 7:33 PM

yeah, but i installed like 100 games before I realized.

HikariKnight•2/25/24, 7:39 PM

you have a mouse to select multiple files

FFayne 🌈🐱These shortcuts.

KingForKings•2/25/24, 8:27 PM

if you install the smallest game in desktop mode then steam will ask you and you uncheck desktop shortcuts and uncheck start menu entries

Fayne 🌈🐱•2/25/24, 8:27 PM

yeah i know, but that doesn't remove the existing shortcuts

FFayne 🌈🐱These shortcuts.

KingForKings•2/25/24, 8:38 PM

try /home/deck/.local/share/ abd see uf all the shortcuts are in. Dont remove the ones you dont want to remove. It is the only thing I can find without googling where are app shortcuts (for linux apps) in the start menu stored

KingForKings•2/25/24, 8:39 PM

also right click on any app will reveil some info in the properties

anoldguyOP•2/25/24, 9:05 PM

So, CoC says I can't DM members here, right? I was going to ping someone about a specific question, but that's verboten, correct?

Kyle Gospo•2/25/24, 9:17 PM

I'd need @j0rge to answer, but my suspicion is that it's just to avoid spam and what not

So, then the million-dollar question. Can I layer the nvidia driver on my current bazzite-gnome imag
