If you going on vacation you might want to turn off automatic updates. The 5GB updates can be a bit pricey on a cellphone plan.
CRight, that's another thing
Oyeah that's another thing about fedora atomic as a whole
Ohuge updates
CRight now if you update it'll be a whole new image
CIt's being worked on
CSame with the progress bar
VI'm still very much a novice when it comes to Linux based systems. But I'm taking the challenge to daily drive it on my pc. And minus a few windows specific apps and vr, it's been smooth so I'll probably understand more in time.
Owelcome to the bazzite-on-pc crew
VOh I don't leave until Thursday, and I got gigabit internet, so I fully plan on decking out my deck before I leave
JI think automatic updates is only for the desktop versions of Bazzite, right? The handheld versions you need to manually hit that Update button?
Othat actually would explain some things
Kdesktop is automatic, handhelds are gaming mode (Steam will check for updates but not auto-apply them)
CIf you're on GNOME, VR should work out when Bazzite 4.0 comes out - which will be based on Fedora 41, which will have GNOME 47 with DRM leasing
Kand both have
System Update app in their app list
VBut no love for KDE?
CKDE already has it
KThe GNOME issue is lack of DRM leasing, KDE already has it
Kbut there's some issue with SteamVR that's being investigated. Seems to affect Fedora 40 KDE Wayland as well
Kopen issue w/ valve
VYeah I heard in news stuffs that vr was being worked on
VAre using specific headsets an issue?
CI suspect the VR situation on Linux will get dramatically better in the near future as a certain piping-themed company starts investing more into it
T@Kyle Gospo giving this a bump idk if you saw this
VBut the main question is do some headsets play nicer than others? I'd imagine that would be the case
VEspecially for quest headsets
CEspecially after GNOME DRM leasing with Wayland is out, that's the default DE for most distros
Atomato
Tannouncement happening soon
GWait, Bazzite is a rolling release? How come I have KDE 6.1 suddenly? A pleasant surprise, but a surprise for sure!
CQuests should be fine, they're just streaming the game like Steam Link(even if you're on USB)
CWhat protections does bazzite have in place to protect me from malware and pups If any
CHaven't tried it myself, though I do have a Quest, but if the basic software stack works Quests should work
VInteresting, I half expected quest to be some proprietary signaling over usb that Facebook/meta implemented for no good reason
CIt's just a compressed video being sent over USB
CThe main thing is that you only have ALVR on Linux for streaming
CI mean potentially unwanted programmes
Alinux we like stuff raw
CValve should get Steam Link to work in Valve Time
, but there's no Virtual Desktop app
, but there's no Virtual Desktop appAif you get a virus you have to throw away your computer
A(never happened)
KSELinux, if you install something yourself or run bad apps with permissions though there's really nothing there helping you
AAnd that's an 0.0001% chance on Linux.
KWe don't ship clam AV, and never will. That's primarily for Windows viruses on a Linux email server
Aselinux is before you get a virus
KYou're welcome to layer it yourself if you want it
CHow to layer viruses
Aafter you get a virus, tbh maybe it got into the bios
Aso you have to throw the computer in the garbage and get a new one
Aunless you want to risk it
Adoubt it, also you can reflash the BIOS/UEFI
