Has anyone done performance comparisons in games between Bluefin and Bazzite? I'm on the fence about which to switch to for mixed gaming and software dev when the Nvidia 555 drivers release

TThe Melted Jedi So how would I skip the login screen? I’m in just the regular OS mode/install

What desktop?

Valerie•6/8/24, 4:54 PM

They're basically 1:1. If you're looking for gaming though go Bazzite as it has steam and whatnot pre-installed.

Valerie•6/8/24, 4:54 PM

Layering steam is a bitch and the flatpak kinda sucks

ProtoScrawlOP•6/8/24, 4:55 PM

Thanks for the info

The Melted Jedi•6/8/24, 4:55 PM

kde

VValerie What desktop?

The Melted Jedi•6/8/24, 4:59 PM

just found it

Valerie•6/8/24, 4:59 PM

Ah cool

The Melted Jedi•6/8/24, 5:04 PM

had to search for SDDM. im really new to this, havent played with any distros for a loooong time

this is the best exp ive found so far though!

Doesn't bazzite also use custom kernel?

Aasen23 Doesn't bazzite also use custom kernel?

Valerie•6/8/24, 5:09 PM

It's the Fedora kernel with modifications, it's not making miracles.

asen23•6/8/24, 5:09 PM

I know but it is a little bit better tho right?

asen23•6/8/24, 5:10 PM

Like if 1% improvement is small but 1% more than 0% i guess

Valerie•6/8/24, 5:10 PM

It has the capability to be slightly better. Check out the linux experiment's video, "gaming" modifications for distros more often than not do not a whole lot.

linux_doggo•6/8/24, 5:10 PM

Sorry to keep bothering people here, I've set up tailscale finally, on my brand new bazzite install on my pc tailscale works without root

linux_doggo•6/8/24, 5:11 PM

But on my steam deck with a much older install of bazzite, I cant use it without sudo

linux_doggo•6/8/24, 5:11 PM

Is there a way to get the more modern bazzite config on the older install

Valerie•6/8/24, 5:12 PM

You can allow yourself to use it without sudo by running sudo tailscale up --operator=$USERsudo tailscale up --operator=$USER

"selling" point of gaming distros are usually gaming features, rather then miniscule performance improvements, even if they advertise those the most.

Valerie•6/8/24, 5:12 PM

Sorry, fixed this command

Oh brilliant

Valerie•6/8/24, 5:13 PM

Nobara is like the "gaming performance" distro and even that is like, a few percentage in the best cases.

Llinux_doggo Does it autostart now without needing sudo

Valerie•6/8/24, 5:13 PM

If you run tailscale up it should persist with reboots

linux_doggo•6/8/24, 5:13 PM

Perfect

linux_doggo•6/8/24, 5:13 PM

Thanks

VValerie Gotta love VRR on cheap monitors

malex•6/8/24, 5:39 PM

I have an $800 oled monitor and ti still does this

fiftydinar•6/8/24, 5:43 PM

it's recommended to cap the framerate a bit below refresh rate for better frame-pacing & to avoid the mentioned display flickering

fiftydinar•6/8/24, 5:43 PM

better the fps limiter, better the results

fiftydinar•6/8/24, 5:44 PM

but, flickering in already capped applications can be a driver issue even, doesn't need to be related to the monitor

Valerie•6/8/24, 5:49 PM

My monitor is quite cheap, I'd be confident in putting the blame on the monitor

VValerie Gotta love VRR on cheap monitors

char•6/8/24, 5:49 PM

this here is why i do not cheap out on any monitors

char•6/8/24, 5:49 PM

i went from one costing like 300 pounds to one costing way over 600

char•6/8/24, 5:49 PM

because the cheap one fucked me up for like a week

Onihikage•6/8/24, 5:49 PM

damn those are some heavy monitors

Cchar this here is why i do not cheap out on any monitors

Valerie•6/8/24, 5:49 PM

I shopped within my price range lol, I just disable VRR

char•6/8/24, 5:50 PM

i mean also in general

char•6/8/24, 5:50 PM

odesey g5 is a horrible panel

Valerie•6/8/24, 5:50 PM

Cheap monitors are worse, yes

Onihikage•6/8/24, 5:50 PM

Can confirm, have cheap monitors, they tend to just stop displaying output when VRR is enabled

Onihikage•6/8/24, 5:51 PM

but only sometimes, if they don't feel like varying their refresh rate that day

Valerie•6/8/24, 5:51 PM

Mine supports VRR but isn't tuned for it at all so the brightness is just all over the place

Valerie•6/8/24, 5:51 PM

It also "supports" HDR (Just doesn't even show in KDE settings)

Valerie•6/8/24, 5:53 PM

I'm assuming DP supports HDR

oxeleis•6/8/24, 6:05 PM

How can i get the unallocated space to be allocated to the bazzite partition? I tried formating it to btrfs just like bazzite but i still don't get the option to allocate more space to bazzite, how do i do this?

oxeleis•6/8/24, 6:10 PM

My monkey brain says maybe they need to be next to each other cause they have a starting and ending point so logically it would be imposible to allocate it without interfering with those two ext4 that are on the way, My problem is i'm afraid of deleting them cause i don't know if those were bazzite's partition made during installation, i dont know what they are, if they have nothing to do with bazzite then idk about deleting them but im scared of messing up bazzite by deleting them

Potajito•6/8/24, 6:14 PM

any idea how to debug being unable to shutdown/reboot (kde image)? I click on reboot/shutdown, it seems to shut some parts of plasma off but it doesn't go all the way throught.

hive•6/8/24, 6:15 PM

You can move them to the left and then expand /dev/sda8 to the right. Moving partitions starting points can be a bit risky, so maybe you can clone the two ext4 partitions + bazzite's btrfs into another drive for a backup and then perform the moving operation

hive•6/8/24, 6:15 PM

for cloning partitions, you can simply right click and select copy and paste it into another drive. The metadata (name, file system, label, etc) is retained in what will be pasted too

Has anyone done performance comparisons in games between Bluefin and Bazzite? I'm on the fence about
