nvidia gpu not working on latest(?) ver
i have tried numerus things to make my gpu run and it just refuses and my laptop just uses the intergrated gpu pls help
AWhat laptop? Can you search "About this System" in your menu and screenshot the hardware info?
οΏ½yea
οΏ½
Aare you on Gnome or KDE?
οΏ½kde
Athere should be something called "About this System" or "System Settings"
A
Alike this
οΏ½
AIt would show your GPU etc.
Agotcha
οΏ½ok
Aare you trying to run Steam games or something else
οΏ½steam , heroic
Afor Steam, you can try this and see if it works
AAThat should (hopefully) choose your discrete graphics card
ACLOSE STEAM FIRST
Aif that wasn't obvious
οΏ½and for heroic?
οΏ½chatgpt said that alot lmao
AI don't know the command for heroic but it's probably similar
AAnyway see if that works for a simple Steam game
οΏ½hmm alright ill try
Aif it doesn't, try
switcherooctl launch bazzite-steam 2AI'm not super familiar with laptop setups like this on Bazzite, but it looks like it's normally supposed to work automatically. Sometimes it doesn't, not sure why.
οΏ½im tryna think whats as heavy as hogwarts..
Ayou could try that
Aif you have it on Steam
οΏ½hogwarts is on epic thru heroic
Aah
οΏ½sadly
οΏ½testing now
AOK I read
man switcherooctlAYou can run
switcherooctl list to check your index numbers (I'm guessing NVIDIA will be index 1)AAnd in case that earlier Steam command didn't work you might need
switcherooctl launch -g 1 bazzite-steamοΏ½ok
Agood luck, if you get it working with Steam then your next steps would be to learn how to change the Steam shortcut or automatic launch to use switcherooctl, I guess
AAnd maybe ask in #bazzite about how to find/edit the Heroic launcher shortcut to do the same thing
