What specific laptop?

Valerie•8/10/24, 9:39 PM

Forgive me if I'm wrong but it looks like all of these come with an Nvidia GPU?

VValerie What specific laptop?

RenOP•8/10/24, 9:44 PM

I know it's amd chip set but I don't know the specifics so lemme send the specs

RRen I know it's amd chip set but I don't know the specifics so lemme send the specs

AMD CPU doesn't matter if it has an Nvidia GPU. GPU is the deciding factor in if your device will support game mode.

RRen Click to see attachment

HikariKnight•8/10/24, 9:49 PM

HikariKnight•8/10/24, 9:49 PM

distrobox/boxbuddy?

HHikariKnight idk if vega graphics works with gamemode

Valerie•8/10/24, 9:49 PM

I think their laptop is polaris, which isn't much better

VValerie I *think* their laptop is polaris, which isn't much better

HikariKnight•8/10/24, 9:49 PM

vega

HikariKnight•8/10/24, 9:50 PM

it says on the processor

HHikariKnight it says on the processor

RenOP•8/10/24, 9:50 PM

So essentially I'm fucked

Valerie•8/10/24, 9:50 PM

Windows settings also doesn't say the GPU afaik

Valerie•8/10/24, 9:50 PM

"with vega" is just the APU name

RRen So essentially I'm fucked

HikariKnight•8/10/24, 9:50 PM

check task manager

HHikariKnight check task manager

RenOP•8/10/24, 9:50 PM

I'll check when I get home

First time using boxbuddy - what is a good container OS (debian based) for running a simple GUI program?

Can't believe Kyle added an iFixit toolkit to Bazzite

cave monster•8/10/24, 9:51 PM

Makes sense I guess

VValerie I'm assuming your laptop looks like this

RenOP•8/10/24, 9:52 PM

Yeah

CCrono Can't believe Kyle added an iFixit toolkit to Bazzite

Valerie•8/10/24, 9:52 PM

Wow! Nvidia game mode support! In one commit?

CCrono Can't believe Kyle added an iFixit toolkit to Bazzite

i cant believe he added a cup holder to make my friend shut up about bazzite not coming with one

VValerie I'm assuming your laptop looks like this

HikariKnight•8/10/24, 9:52 PM

acer has a tendency to make 10000000 skus with the same name and model number of that dumb laptop

Ccave monster Makes sense I guess

Crono•8/10/24, 9:53 PM

Do note Debian uses an older version of GPG, might run into some monkey business if you use that and you're not using a separate

Valerie•8/10/24, 9:54 PM

However, same APU and it'd make sense if a polaris card wasn't working

Valerie•8/10/24, 9:54 PM

I googled the exact model number in settings

HikariKnight•8/10/24, 9:54 PM

true

RRen Yeah

HikariKnight•8/10/24, 9:56 PM

if you can use bazzite desktop and give me the output from

lspci -nnk | grep -P "(VGA compatible|3D) controller" -A1

lspci -nnk | grep -P "(VGA compatible|3D) controller" -A1

there might be a chance the gpu has a pci name we dont know of and it actually uses the wrong gamescope version
thats all i can offer if it has an RX 500 card

RenOP•8/10/24, 10:03 PM

How do I do any of that

RRen How do I do any of that

HikariKnight•8/10/24, 10:05 PM

install bazzite desktop instead and open terminal and run that command

CheZZ•8/10/24, 10:14 PM

does Bazzite have the same “prioritize controller” settings as SteamOS does? so someone can choose the priority order of connected controllers

HHikariKnight install bazzite desktop instead and open terminal and run that command

RenOP•8/10/24, 10:14 PM

Do I reinstall it because thats what I installed

antheas•8/10/24, 10:14 PM

yes

RRen Do I reinstall it because thats what I installed

HikariKnight•8/10/24, 10:15 PM

if you installed the desktop version you should be able to get to the desktop, just open the terminal and run the command then when you can and give me the output
