is there anyway I can run a game in gaming mode within a distrobox container?

Bbdface.is there anyway I can run a game in gaming mode within a distrobox container?

Kyle Gospo•6/27/24, 7:20 PM

is gamescope in the container or outside?

Kyle Gospo•6/27/24, 7:20 PM

in this scenario

bdface.OP•6/27/24, 7:20 PM

I wanted to see if I could run, say an appimage, through a distrobox container, in gaming mode

bdface.OP•6/27/24, 7:20 PM

i could install gamescope on it i suppose

Bbdface.I wanted to see if I could run, say an appimage, through a distrobox container, ...

Kyle Gospo•6/27/24, 7:20 PM

yeah, add a shortcut to it in steam

Kyle Gospo•6/27/24, 7:20 PM

distrobox enter containername -- applicationdistrobox enter containername -- application more or less

Kyle Gospo•6/27/24, 7:20 PM

that'll launch in game mode as-is

Kyle Gospo•6/27/24, 7:20 PM

don't need gamescope in the container

bdface.OP•6/27/24, 7:20 PM

oh, ok

bdface.OP•6/27/24, 7:21 PM

because a (now dmcad) game doesn't work at all on fedora-based systems

bdface.OP•6/27/24, 7:21 PM

or the steam linux runtime

bdface.OP•6/27/24, 7:21 PM

but it DOES work on a debian distrobox

bdface.OP•6/27/24, 7:24 PM

k i made a simple sh file that just launches the game within the distrobox

bdface.OP•6/27/24, 7:24 PM

ill add THAT to steam

bdface.OP•6/27/24, 7:24 PM

instead of having to mess around with the steam launch arguements

aj53108•6/27/24, 7:37 PM

rebasted to testing. dang 555 is awesome. gamed for about a half hour or so on baldurs gate 3 and it was flawless!

aj53108•6/27/24, 7:37 PM

now us nvidia guys just need some hdr love and i'll be set

tducasse•6/27/24, 7:42 PM

hey! I created a distrobox with bazzite-arch, and it looks like steam is defaulting to my intel graphics instead of my nvidia GPU. Any way to make it work?

Kasher_CS•6/27/24, 7:43 PM

What OS you on?

aj53108•6/27/24, 7:45 PM

i pinned my stable image that i was on and rebased to testing to see how good the new driver is (it's good). I'm new to the atomic thing. do i rebase back to stable, or just boot into my pinned image and that's all i need to do?

KKasher_CS What OS you on?

tducasse•6/27/24, 7:46 PM

fedora, with a stock ublue kinoite-nvidia

Kyle Gospo•6/27/24, 7:50 PM

you'd need to add launch options for nvidia

Kyle Gospo•6/27/24, 7:50 PM

auto-dGPU is a bazzite feature

KKyle Gospo auto-dGPU is a bazzite feature

tducasse•6/27/24, 7:51 PM

oh right, that makes sense. I'll just rebase to bazzite and see if my problems go away

Kyle Gospo•6/27/24, 7:51 PM

if you do, make sure to delete bazzite-arch

Kyle Gospo•6/27/24, 7:51 PM

zero reason to use it

tducasse•6/27/24, 7:51 PM

oh yeah of course

Kyle Gospo•6/27/24, 7:51 PM

you can also try aurora or bluefin

Kyle Gospo•6/27/24, 7:51 PM

both have the same auto dgpu

tducasse•6/27/24, 7:52 PM

ah interesting

tducasse•6/27/24, 7:52 PM

I don't know, I've been reading the code trying to decide which image to go with... it's hard to choose!

tducasse•6/27/24, 7:53 PM

I'm a software dev, I play games, I also do some gamedev...

tducasse•6/27/24, 7:53 PM

I think bazzite would make sense?

tryhardsoccermomswag•6/27/24, 7:53 PM

100%

we're also releasing a massive update in :testing:testing rn

Crono•6/27/24, 7:54 PM

Will the current commit be 3.1?

Kasher_CS•6/27/24, 7:56 PM

Why were some programs removed?

Anyone using a Legion Go? Trying to figure out if the CSS profile displays correctly or not

tducasse•6/27/24, 7:57 PM

rebasing to bazzite-nvidia:stable first to see how much it flickers

CCrono Will the current commit be 3.1?

tryhardsoccermomswag•6/27/24, 7:57 PM

3.5

KKasher_CS Why were some programs removed?

tryhardsoccermomswag•6/27/24, 7:57 PM

Make image smaller

aj53108•6/27/24, 7:58 PM

@tducasse it’s not a LOT but it definitely does it and is annoying

aj53108•6/27/24, 7:58 PM

I ran testing for a little while and it’s sooo much better.

aj53108•6/27/24, 7:58 PM

Switching back to stable right now cause I need maximum stability for my system. I can wait for the official release of 555 cause I’m guessing it won’t take long.

Kasher_CS•6/27/24, 7:59 PM

What's the reccomended replacment for qsynth? The flatpak works?
