Well - nothing fancy as I'm only now starting proper, you could say; I'm just worried about GPU acceleration in rolling up containers and things of that sort, as I hear it's a bit of a sticking point. Only things I need that I already don't use sandboxed are Godot and Reaper.

That last one is important because I use yabridge for Windows VST compatiblity, and the current versions of Wine have broken compatibility with that. Wasn't too difficult to downgrade and ignore the packages here in Nobara, but I've never really messed with immutable distros.

Llune5 Naw no update under the desktop system update app. But when steam launches on de...

steam being weird

CronoOP•4/30/24, 8:00 PM

Given my current status, I'd be more than happy to use Bazzite to brave those waters, honestly.

CCrono Well - nothing fancy as I'm only now starting proper, you could say; I'm just wo...

Kyle Gospo•4/30/24, 8:01 PM

good news is Distrobox is fully GPU accelerated, it's running on your active kernel and not a VM

Kyle Gospo•4/30/24, 8:01 PM

Kyle Gospo•4/30/24, 8:01 PM

Here's blender in a fedora distrobox, exported to the desktop

Kyle Gospo•4/30/24, 8:01 PM

Kyle Gospo•4/30/24, 8:01 PM

and here it is picking up ROCM HIP

CronoOP•4/30/24, 8:01 PM

Very cool!

tryhardsoccermomswag•4/30/24, 8:01 PM

also good news here

tryhardsoccermomswag•4/30/24, 8:01 PM

no need to downgrade packages

tryhardsoccermomswag•4/30/24, 8:01 PM

can always rollback to a pinned deployment

tryhardsoccermomswag•4/30/24, 8:02 PM

also rollback to any bazzite build within the last 90 days

tryhardsoccermomswag•4/30/24, 8:02 PM

so if something at a system-level broke, this will take you back keeping your userdata intact

CronoOP•4/30/24, 8:03 PM

Now that I think about it, I could just spin up a Reaper + yabridge box with the proper Wine version

CronoOP•4/30/24, 8:04 PM

Sounds like an even more robust solution.

CronoOP•4/30/24, 8:04 PM

There's been talks about a yabridge Flatpak too, so it could be even easier in the future

CCrono Now that I think about it, I could just spin up a Reaper + yabridge box with the...

Kyle Gospo•4/30/24, 8:04 PM

100%

Kyle Gospo•4/30/24, 8:05 PM

we ship BoxBuddy to make it easier, too

Kyle Gospo•4/30/24, 8:05 PM

button press to export stuff you've installed

Kyle Gospo•4/30/24, 8:05 PM

so it just shows up as a native app

Kyle Gospo•4/30/24, 8:05 PM

CronoOP•4/30/24, 8:06 PM

Such cool technology

CronoOP•4/30/24, 8:07 PM

What of kernel versions, though? - either to test regressions in isolation, or just some custom patches

tryhardsoccermomswag•4/30/24, 8:08 PM

rollbacks/rebasing

CronoOP•4/30/24, 8:08 PM

There's a lot of niche controller patches that aren't merged upstream, for instance

tryhardsoccermomswag•4/30/24, 8:08 PM

you can't change the kernel individually without building your own version of bazzite

tryhardsoccermomswag•4/30/24, 8:08 PM

it's all in the image as is

CronoOP•4/30/24, 8:08 PM

Not even layering?

tryhardsoccermomswag•4/30/24, 8:08 PM

i don't think you can layer and replace a kernel like that but maybe someone has better information about that

tryhardsoccermomswag•4/30/24, 8:08 PM

i don't think anyone has tried that lol

CronoOP•4/30/24, 8:08 PM

Interesting

tryhardsoccermomswag•4/30/24, 8:09 PM

you usually can't touch system-level stuff like that

tryhardsoccermomswag•4/30/24, 8:09 PM

at most

tryhardsoccermomswag•4/30/24, 8:09 PM

you can use

mesa-git

mesa-git

in a distrobox container and every application in that container will use the bleeding edge mesa driver

tryhardsoccermomswag•4/30/24, 8:09 PM

only in that container though

tryhardsoccermomswag•4/30/24, 8:09 PM

don't think you can do that with kernels either

CCrono There's a lot of niche controller patches that aren't merged upstream, for insta...

Kyle Gospo•4/30/24, 8:11 PM

if you need stuff like this you can open an issue in ublue-os/akmods

Kyle Gospo•4/30/24, 8:11 PM

we're pretty receptive to things that add functionality and don't break other hardware

CronoOP•4/30/24, 8:13 PM

Sounds great!

CronoOP•4/30/24, 8:15 PM

I guess the very last system-level thing I might want to do is enabling full preemption and realtime-setup, don't imagine that's too difficult to do?

Kyle Gospo•4/30/24, 8:17 PM

Can you show me how you set that up currently?

JeremyGraeme•4/30/24, 8:17 PM

Is Bazzite deck good to install on the deck right now, or is there still some kind of issues going on?

Kyle Gospo•4/30/24, 8:18 PM

LCD yes, OLED soon

Kyle Gospo•4/30/24, 8:18 PM

It's mostly good now if you primarily game

KKyle Gospo Can you show me how you set that up currently?

CronoOP•4/30/24, 8:20 PM

Add my user to the realtime group which

realtime-setup

realtime-setup

automates, add a

preeempt=full

preeempt=full

kernel parameter and install PipeWire JACK, and I believe that's all there is to it

CCrono Add my user to the realtime group which `realtime-setup` automates, add a `preee...

Kyle Gospo•4/30/24, 8:20 PM

ok, user is easy, same as before

Kyle Gospo•4/30/24, 8:20 PM

karg:

Kyle Gospo•4/30/24, 8:21 PM

rpm-ostree kargs --append=preempt=full

rpm-ostree kargs --append=preempt=full

Kyle Gospo•4/30/24, 8:21 PM

+ reboot

Well - nothing fancy as I'm only now starting proper, you could say; I'm just worried about GPU acce
