ENABLE_GAMESCOPE_WSI=1 DXVK_HDR=1 gamescope , is there a better way to do it in the last couple months? IIRC the implementation relied on some code meant for testing only from https://github.com/Drakulix/VK_hdr_layer

but I still need to use those launch flags or otherwise spawn my steam parent pid using gamescope, yeah?

CCrono I love it when Steam stops responding when you close a dialog :build_failed:

asen23•7/22/24, 2:50 AM

Disable hw accel lol

matt_schwartz•7/22/24, 3:59 AM

enable gamescope wsi if its not set by default for some reason on your setup, DXVK_HDR=1 ive never needed with gamescope tbh

matt_schwartz•7/22/24, 4:00 AM

anything extra people add for hdr is likely to hinder HDR not make it better

you using a -deck build?

Yes. For my htpc

Kyle Gospo•7/22/24, 4:25 AM

There should already be a script present that lowers the priority of that output to almost nothing

Kyle Gospo•7/22/24, 4:25 AM

Only other way to fix it if that's not good enough is to write your own custom wire plumber config

Kyle Gospo•7/22/24, 4:25 AM

Or make a service to change the output, neither is very fun

Not detecting any nearby bluetooth devices

Kyle Gospo•7/22/24, 4:38 AM

could be any number of things, including hardware

Kyle Gospo•7/22/24, 4:39 AM

try running a dmesgdmesg and see if any notices about your bluetooth stand out

Kyle Gospo•7/22/24, 4:39 AM

can also check the session

tryhardsoccermomswag•7/22/24, 4:39 AM

actually steamOS did that for me today on my deck but the only thing it should be detecting was my friend's dualsense controller he brought over and it didn't detect, but that could be the controller

tryhardsoccermomswag•7/22/24, 4:41 AM

if anyone tests this now on bazzite or steamOS for that matter then its def a skill issue or something on both of our parts

porkloinOP•7/22/24, 5:17 AM

is this stuff documented anywhere in bazzite or kde? I remember getting advice from a contributor here about those flags a couple months ago - happy that I don't need to use them anymore, but I'm just more or less trying to keep up with whatever the new best way to get my games to launch in HDR from a bazzite kde desktop is and I don't tend to check in unless I start having a problem

TTheEtherNetBoyz I keep randomly getting this and have to reboot for it to work

Semmelstulle•7/22/24, 5:34 AM

I also have that problem after the 2024-07-12 update. At least that is the version I was updating from yesterday.

I have the RTL8852CE, which is supported by Kernel 5.15+ though.

Another interesting thing is, that it’s noticeably better in desktop mode and worse in game mode.

Semmelstulle•7/22/24, 5:36 AM

I need to stay on the older version from now. I can’t download anything, because it disconnects within 2 minutes

Cerebus•7/22/24, 7:10 AM

Ok. 2nd boot bazzite boots to black screen.

Cerebus•7/22/24, 7:10 AM

Should I power off and try turning on again

Jayden•7/22/24, 7:35 AM

I was thinking about installing Bazzite on my gaming rig. I'm using Fedora and have been fairly happy with it but I want a more gaming focused distro. Nobara is nice but the lack of forums and support scares me a bit. Bazzite seems to be great for my needs but I have a bit of questions.
1. I have seen a lot of people use this for gaming handhelds and HTPCs and not much for Desktops. Why is that? Is this distro more for those use cases? Would I be better off sticking with fedora?
2. With it being immutable, can I still tweak/theme my desktop? That's the biggest customization that I plan on doing to my system.

Geechan•7/22/24, 7:48 AM

1) Bazzite is fully suitable as a desktop solution. I use it for my main gaming PC with no issues. In fact, it's excellent as a workstation. Bazzite is also developed on Bazzite.

2) You can tweak pretty much anything about your desktop as long as it modifies the home directory or the /etc directory. You can't touch /usr. In practice, that means you can't easily modify the lock screen in KDE as that requires root privileges, for example.

dreamyuki•7/22/24, 7:49 AM

lockscreen is still customizable
Login screen however is different story

Jayden•7/22/24, 7:50 AM

Okay thanks! Login screen customization is a bit of a bummer but I don't like the custom ones anyway to be honest.

Jayden•7/22/24, 7:51 AM

Are there any other theming roadblocks?

Kasher_CS•7/22/24, 7:52 AM

Also login screen customization only applies to KDE since Gnome doesn't have customization even on regular Fedora

Kasher_CS•7/22/24, 7:54 AM

Most of Bazzite's changes can be done on Fedora as well, since Bazzite is fedora based anyway - Its that all of them are preinstalled and on an immutable system

Jayden•7/22/24, 8:00 AM

That's true. I'm still really on the fence with what I like best. I absolutely love the look of gnome but I don't like how it handles full screen applications when using Super+scroll. The dash to dock extension also doesn't have preview windows when hovering. Just minor stuff that makes me want to use KDE. KDE also has its issues though. It feels like Windows but maybe worse? Idk how else to describe it.

EmKUltra64•7/22/24, 8:00 AM

You can modify a lot of the KDE UI to your liking

Kasher_CS•7/22/24, 8:00 AM

Full screen apps with Super+Scroll?

Kasher_CS•7/22/24, 8:00 AM

Wdym?

Kasher_CS•7/22/24, 8:01 AM

That it keeps them in fullscreen?

KKasher_CS Full screen apps with Super+Scroll?

Jayden•7/22/24, 8:03 AM

This might be a fedora issue but whenever I have a full screen app open on one workspace and use Super+Scroll and go back to the workspace, I get placed on the desktop and the game

Jayden•7/22/24, 8:04 AM

But if I just use the Super key and select the workspace, it selects the game in full screen

Jayden•7/22/24, 8:04 AM

Which is what I want

Kasher_CS•7/22/24, 8:06 AM

Ah, I see, it happens only sometimes

Kasher_CS•7/22/24, 8:07 AM

At least on my end

Jayden•7/22/24, 8:08 AM

Oh so maybe it's a bug with gnome?

Kasher_CS•7/22/24, 8:11 AM

Gamescope fixes it whenever it does happen

Jayden•7/22/24, 8:12 AM

Idk. I really want to like gnome but really dislike their philosophy of essentially not customization. The gnome was a nightmare to theme although that was more of a gtk4 and Flatpak issue. I'm sorta stuck. I like the philosophy of KDE but dislike the look. I love the look of Gnome but hate the philosophy.
