Rollbacks won't touch your layers

Kyle Gospo•6/9/24, 1:55 AM

Feel free to roll back to any date you like

Kyle Gospo•6/9/24, 1:55 AM

We've been on the current stable release for quite some time however, would have to be a very old image

Kyle Gospo•6/9/24, 1:55 AM

What issues are they having?

doomhoundOP•6/9/24, 1:56 AM

just the nvidia driver not the whole os build, hes having flickering isseus in steam and discord

Kyle Gospo•6/9/24, 1:56 AM

Tell him to use X11

doomhoundOP•6/9/24, 1:56 AM

while using wayland, he switched to x11 and some of the isses seemed to be gone

Kyle Gospo•6/9/24, 1:57 AM

There is no stable Nvidia driver that supports Wayland, that's completely expected

doomhoundOP•6/9/24, 1:57 AM

x11 scaling is awful though

Ddoomhound x11 scaling is awful though

Kyle Gospo•6/9/24, 1:57 AM

They are going to have to wait for the next driver release

Kyle Gospo•6/9/24, 1:57 AM

Might be a few weeks

Kyle Gospo•6/9/24, 1:57 AM

At that point Wayland will function

doomhoundOP•6/9/24, 1:57 AM

sounds good thanks ill let him know

TTray u remember where the option is?

tryhardsoccermomswag•6/9/24, 2:01 AM

desktop mode steam settings

Tray•6/9/24, 2:01 AM

ah okay that's why I couldn't find it

KKyle Gospo Correct

Krauzer•6/9/24, 2:02 AM

is this hardware-cetric? there is a folk from another sever trying to install this on Nobara, but on his destop, he does't have any Deck-like handheld and wanted to try out this neat feature, he understands that using Steam Big Picture mode is not the same thing haha

Kyle Gospo•6/9/24, 2:03 AM

Coincidentally steam big picture is hugely fucked on Nvidia

Kyle Gospo•6/9/24, 2:03 AM

It's a driver problem, there's nothing that can be done to fix it by us

Kyle Gospo•6/9/24, 2:03 AM

If they want to try it I would recommend they buy an AMD GPU or a modern Intel one

Krauzer•6/9/24, 2:04 AM

thanks for the info, gonna pass on to him

matt_schwartz•6/9/24, 2:04 AM

the funniest part is that the only way big picture mode isn’t broken on nvidia 555 is if you use the steam deck client

matt_schwartz•6/9/24, 2:05 AM

Otherwise it’s fully broken instead of like… 50% broken

Krauzer•6/9/24, 2:06 AM

Steam Deck client?

Krauzer•6/9/24, 2:07 AM

honestly don't now why he wants to try this out, one of the main reasons for you to use this is for battery life, and he is using a desktop...

matt_schwartz•6/9/24, 2:07 AM

launching Steam like steam -steamdecksteam -steamdeck opts you into the steam deck client instead of the desktop Linux client, but there’s other quirks that come with it…

matt_schwartz•6/9/24, 2:07 AM

It’s very annoying

Krauzer•6/9/24, 2:08 AM

everything else that this does can be easily achieved using regular gamescope, the scaling features, quality enhancements and whatnot

matt_schwartz•6/9/24, 2:08 AM

I do get the appeal of wanting to do it which is why I sunk a lot of time into testing it on 555

KKrauzer honestly don't now why he wants to try this out, one of the main reasons for you...

Kyle Gospo•6/9/24, 2:08 AM

Better game performance

Kyle Gospo•6/9/24, 2:08 AM

Gamescope is a compositor dedicated to gaming and nothing is running in the background

KKyle Gospo Coincidentally steam big picture is hugely fucked on Nvidia

Tray•6/9/24, 2:09 AM

how so?

KKyle Gospo Better game performance

Krauzer•6/9/24, 2:09 AM

but can't you use regular gamescope for this? passing on the necessary parameters via CLI (Steam Launch Options), afaik what Valve did with their side panels is just passing on new parameters to the gamesope session client

Ofc the GUI helps with the ease of use, I know

Tray•6/9/24, 2:09 AM

I have big picture mode boot on startup

matt_schwartz•6/9/24, 2:09 AM

yes you can but the way to do it is busted in Gamescope right now on Wayland

matt_schwartz•6/9/24, 2:10 AM

it doesn’t fullscreen properly

matt_schwartz•6/9/24, 2:10 AM

Your system information Steam client version (build number or date): 1716584667 Distribution (e.g. Ubuntu): Fedora, Arch Opted into Steam client beta?: Yes Have you checked for system updates?: Yes...

Krauzer•6/9/24, 2:10 AM

that makes more sense now, yeah

KKrauzer but can't you use regular gamescope for this? passing on the necessary parameter...

Kyle Gospo•6/9/24, 2:11 AM

No, since there's be a DE in the background

Kyle Gospo•6/9/24, 2:14 AM

Nowhere near the same thing

Kyle Gospo•6/9/24, 2:14 AM

It's also a nested compositor in that scenario, so you're not getting the full benefit

GrimRaptor•6/9/24, 2:15 AM

on install can i load the os on 2 drives?. i have 2 512nvme and a1tb ssd. one nvme is windows (have to for school). i want to split the tb in half 1 half windows, the other linux. the other 512 will be linux.

Krauzer•6/9/24, 2:15 AM

I guess also that, yeah

GGrimRaptor on install can i load the os on 2 drives?. i have 2 512nvme and a1tb ssd. one nv...

Kyle Gospo•6/9/24, 2:16 AM

I would install Linux to the 512 and then use the other half of the Windows drive as a shared BTRFS partition

GrimRaptor•6/9/24, 2:16 AM

Kyle Gospo•6/9/24, 2:17 AM

Flipping the operating systems would also work

Kyle Gospo•6/9/24, 2:17 AM

Just keep them on separate drives

GrimRaptor•6/9/24, 2:20 AM

Ok.

GrimRaptor•6/9/24, 2:21 AM

What about the 1 TB?

Natalie•6/9/24, 2:22 AM

I recently lost the unique bazzite startup (completely disappeared from the settings) and also lost my ability to adjust the screen resolution/refresh rate on my install, currently on bazzite-ally-gnome-20240603, any clue on what might be wrong?

a buddy of mine is having issues with Nvidia drivers, is there an easy way to roll it back to a prev
