What are the benefits of installing bazzite on steam deck?
ONewer Mesa/kernel. Ability to tinker more.
Tnewer system packages, can layer fedora packages, rollbacks from the last 90 days of builds
OI keep my Deck stock. I run bazzite on my HTPC and basically make it a mega-Deck
IIf you're just using your deck as a deck. not a whole lot. Valve is doing a great job with the stable/experimental deck experience
IIf you want to do more installing something else is nice, and Bazzite gives you great stuff like mostly worry free updates over the alternatives
Kalso the option for other DEs
Klike GNOME and soon Budgie
BBack when I switched, having Distrobox installed out of the box was a big deal for me. Being able to install the occasional rpm system package that persists through updates is great. But most of all it's having the peace of mind that if something does go wrong, there is an opportunity for support and advice from other users in the community here.
Dhey what service is responsible for launching gamescope?
Kgamescope-session-plus
Hcorrection: dont need to manually update to a new fedora base (ex 39 --> 40)
you still update through gamemode as normal or through desktop mode using the system update application

Hujust assemble or ujust distrobox-assemble has all pre-defined distroboxesujust distrobox is for when you need more flexibility like custom home directory, extra arguments, custom container name, etc
AStyling still needs work but this boy is progressing
Hohhh that looks sick!
Kthat is beautiful

KGitHub
ChimeraOS session on Gamescope - Own personal repository, issues and forks should be made on ChimeraOS/gamescope-session - ChimeraOS/gamescope-session
DI don't think I have it
Dnvm found it
BIS there a way to find out that the s 76 Scheduler is running?
Ksystemctl status com.System76.SchedulerKalso make sure the GNOME extension or KDE Kwin script is enabled
BHow is it on Deck images?
I'm still fighting against my HTPC, it Just does Not respect the KDE Power profiles on reboot and the thing with ER Just seems weird since every time the cpu clocks down and I Open the gamescope Guide Performance returns to normal

KHm? KDE should default to the balanced power profile each boot
KThat's driven by ppd and separate from s76 scheduler
Kit's never saved it
CHang on
BAHHHH a way to turn this Off?
CIn game mode I set the profile as performance, in the simpledeckytdp plug in
Kseparate thing from that
Cshould I've been using balanced?
Coh okay phew
Kif you want better battery, yea
Hyou can use a script to set the power profile on login through dbus, i made one for someone wanting powersave not long ago
Coh
Cwell
Cwoops?
Cwill try it from now on then
Hhere is the script in question
Hthink you can run the qdbus command without
power-saver to see possible optionsHdont have a battery powered device with me to check right now
COi, I updated and the cute bazzite intro is gone, is now the normal steamdeck one
BI mean my HTPC isnt battery powered either. Just a Box plugged onto a TV.
Should that script Work on a -Deck image, that IS what I am using on it

Pis there an easy way to set a profile on launching a game, and then revert to power-saver when closed?
Pany game*
KPPD doesn't really do finegrain controls like this
Kthey even refused to offer the option to switch based on plugged in state
Kbest thing to do is change it with the widget in your DE
Dif you can turn it off and on with bash scripts, you could write a launch wrapper in bash
Dset-power.sh %command%
where set-power.sh first sets the power profile to performance, runs the game with eval, making sure environment variables and LD_PRELOAD and LD_LIBRARY_PATH is passed in correctly otherwise proton will fail, wait until the game exits and then set the power profile back to normal
