with an nvidia gpu, what's the best way to emulate android games on linux atm? wayland doesn't seem to work properly on 550 driver at least so I assume there would be problems with waydroid on gnome x11

Eggman•7/3/24, 12:47 AM

i forgot i was updating before and now that i ran the command its downloading 2.5GBs again

Wizardmon•7/3/24, 12:47 AM

I've been using Bazzite for about a week now, very impressed at how responsive and stable this has been for me (asides from the Spectacle program not working).
I've been gaming on Linux since 2020 with Manjaro Xfce, then moving to Garuda KDE, back to manjaro KDE, then to Nobara KDE, and finally landing on this Bazzite KDE.

All this time, across two different computers (I completely upgraded to a new PC when switching to Nobara) I've been having the same issue of watching youtube videos in Firefox or any chrome based browser on a second display while gaming under Proton would freeze the game at a random point - sometimes hardlocking the entire PC alongside the game even. Same issue, across many installs, across entirely different sets of hardware. Bazzite so far, has not had this issue for me and I'm absolutely thankful I'm able to watch videos on youtube while gaming again. I've been resorting to opening youtubes in VLC to watch them for years now lmao.

Wizardmon•7/3/24, 12:48 AM

No idea if anything special was done to handle that or if I was just cursed to have that issue more than other people, but I'm glad it's over.
I can't tell you how many times I've had to close steam to close the game, as attempting to close the game when it crashed alone would hardlock the system too. Probably hundreds of times over the past four years.

Does anyone know if the stable NVIDIA 555 release fixed washed out HDR? It wasn’t in the patch notes so am guessing not.

Layering Packages on Bazzite with `rpm-ostree`

This is known as “layering packages” to the image. Layerin...
