Fullscreen issue on Bazzite 42 w/ Arc B580.
Not really too sure who/where to ask this question. I recently upgraded from an AMD card to an Arc B580. Ive been happy with the performance so far, except trying to play Red Dead Redemption 2. This used to work OK on my previous AMD card, so I would assume its a compat thing as the B580 is a newer card.
Basically, the game starts in a 1280x720 window, and trying to change into Fullscreen crashes the game. If I set it to Windowed Fullscreen, I am unable to adjust the resolution. It just gives me no options to change either a) what display the games running on or b) what GPU the card is using. Just says the number "0" and is greyed out.
Things I've tried:
1. Adding boot flags to force fullscreen, game just crashes on launch.
2. Manually adjusting the settings.xml file, to which the game does the same (crashes on launch).
I haven't had any issues with any other games, just this one. I am going to see if the issue persists with something like GTA V or the Definitive Edition games, maybe a Rockstar games specific issue - not sure. All my other games like Atomfall, Skyrim, Crime Scene Cleaner work tip top with no issues.
Ive attached fastfetch output.
Thank you!😅

Unfortunately the answer is downgraded, you downgraded to an Intel card
We have a massive thread on all of the bugs that affect Intel only, this is one of them
You will have to wait an indeterminate amount of time for a fix
If it's not too late I would return it and get a newer AMD card
Thank you for the input, I will speak with Overclockers tuesday and try get it returned. I thankfully still have my RX6600. Im not as hot on my PC hardware nowadays as I used to be. My brain thinks newer -> better. (at least for PC hardware, obvs not right lol)
