Yeah, because I had a separate drive for /home
Yeah, because I had a separate drive for /home
KYeah, that's not supported
THas anything changed with latest image and controllers... Xbox controller stopped working (using dongle) same with 8bit dongle it connects but doesn't register in steam...
KDon't do that
AAt least that's what I wanted
KNothing whatsoever
KNot even a minor version bump
THrmm :sus_think:
AWhy not?
KImmutable Fedora installations are quite different from normal Fedora installations, even upstream does not support manual installation. You can do it, there's very long guides on how to do it properly, it's not worth it

AImmutable? Why isn't it a normal Fedora distro like nobara/ultramarine (except those break right after updating a fresh install)?
KBecause I like immutable
KQuite literally everything in this Discord is immutable
KOr as Fedora calls it, atomic
KSince you actually can change the root partition via package layering
AI mean how am I to recover "/home" when the system breaks again, or preserve it when installing a another OS, if home's mapped to the same broken system?
KHome is a folder in var
KYou may back up and restore that partition how you like
AWhy is home in /var? This is making arch or any rolling-release distro seem more a stable choice
DBecause ostree
KBecause that's the writable partition
KEverything else is part of an image and read only except by a package layer
DFedora Atomic Desktop is more stable than Fedora Workstation
DYou can rollback to previous deployment
KIn our case you can also arbitrarily pick one in a 90 day period
KEntire os, packages included, will be brought to exactly that date
DYou can upgrade to a major version without any issue like workstation variant
ABut I can't use /home externally...My steam library alone will eat 90% of the space of the ssd I intended solely for "/"
C. . . .
KSteam will let you put a library on any drive you like
KYou don't need home somewhere special for that
C^ put the steam library somewhere else
DJust mount your steam drive at /var/mnt/foo
CMine is at /var/mnt/Data/Games/Steam/
CData is my second SSD, Games is a btrfs subvolume, and Steam has its own folder
AThere's also downloads, distrobox containers, media cache, browser cache, git/dev folders
KHow small is this drive? I've been able to get away with using a 256 GB steam deck for a very long time now
KA couple different box containers aren't going to take up that much space
AThe "/" was going to be on a 1tb (800-something gb) ssd drive and "/home" on the 8tb ssd
K1 TB is enormous, I would just make the other one your game and storage drive
KThere is zero need for home to be on the other drive
TFor the peeps that switch between handheld and docked how do you manage your game profiles that you want for when it's docked vs handheld on a per game situation
A
there's not really a solution for handheld/docked profilesAassuming you're on a Steam Deck
KYeah, unfortunately something like that would need to come from valve
Aor at least, there's no solutions that I know of
Aon non-deck hardware you can use 3rd party software to get TDP profiles when docked with AC power
Abut you can't do anything about graphics settings
Ai don't think any games offer separate graphics profiles when docked
AThe "/home" I'd be transferring over is already over 3TB
