Gamemode not working.

Hello everyone,

I recently installed Bazzite on a friends desktop. After going through the initial installation setup and then restarting, It keeps going back to the desktop mode. Even if I click the game mode shortcut, it attempts to boot into game mode but is unsuccessful and goes to desktop.

Ive attempted updates but still no fix. Info is down below. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Solution
I have kicked off a Bazzite build that should have the detection for your card (and a bunch of others) fixed, once this is done building you can give it a try with
ujust update
ujust update
or
rpm-ostree update
rpm-ostree update
