Install error?

Hey, so I'm just trying to install this normally, get it all the way through, go to restart and i get this. After is reboots, it instantly goes back to windows. I try checking the bios to no avail. No boot option except for the install USB and my windows drive. It's acting like the ssd i installed to doesn't even exist anymore.

Solution:

we talked in dms, it was because they were using ventoy on the usb instead of flashing with rufus directly to the usb drive

Dual screen not working

I just installed Bazzite with NVIDIA drivers. I have a Dell G15 notebook with a 3050 and integrated Intel graphics. The HDMI port, which the 3050 is responsible for, is recognized in the display configuration but doesn't output anything. However, the USB-C port, which is managed by the Intel integrated graphics, works just fine. Has anyone experienced something like this?

Steam Deck LCD buttons stop working after a minute or 2

Like the title says, all Steam Deck buttons stop working after around a minute, including the power button, though the touchscreen works. Is this possibly a bug with the gnome version of the Steam Deck bazzite? or a bug lower down in the stack?

Install error

I'm trying to install Bazzite on a Dell Latitude 7490. I'm getting this issue whenever I try to install after setting up the initial installation as normal. I went through a lot of BIOS settings to see if I can get it fixed that way, but I'm lost. Any reason that someone else may know?

Monitor freeze after brightness change

I have two external displays connected to my PC. When changing the slider in "Brightness & Color" as well as "Night Light" the one that is connected via dP freezes and only a reboot can fix it. I also tried killing and restarting KDE, turning the monitor off and on even disabling and enabling it under display configuration but with no success. The other monitor that works fine is connected via HDMI. 󱋩  bazzite-nvidia-open:stable ...

How to transition from Bazzite back to Steam OS?

Not really satisfied with Bazzite recently. My memory card constantly shows up as "not formatted" even though it is, and videos in web browsers take a few seconds to play, while the audio plays right away. I'm thinking I better transition back to Steam OS. So, how to do it safely?

Harman APO for Onexfly on Bazzite

Harman APO which I believe is an equalizer that comes with the device that significantly improves the volume and tuning of the Onexfly speakers was unfortunately not available at the time I had Bazzite installed. What is the best way for me to stay in the loop for when this equalizer finally makes its way into Linux?

[PC] Persistent Storage Cache

I am having a problem where I am having parts of my drive that seems to be unoccupied according to Filelight show as occupied by the drive. The main culprit is probably Heroic Games Launcher which I installed and uninstalled games from but I don't know how to get the storage back.

Solution:

Okay so open btrfs-assistant and disable the automatic snapshots

Unity Mod Manager doesn't install despite reporting successful install

Hi Everyone, I'm attempting to install Unity Mod Manager (https://www.nexusmods.com/site/mods/21) for use with Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous. According to the program author and at least a few protondb users, this program should function in Linux with a Proton version of Pathfinder. It even has install instructions for Linux systems on the Nexus page, but I am unable to open a single mod or even the mod manager itself within Wrath. Here are the details: I'm running on an AMD Ryzen™ 5 5600X with a Radeon RX 6750 XT in Bazzite 41 (FROM Fedora Silverblue), 64-bit. ...

Is there a way to switch to X11? plasma-workspace-x11 crashes

My friend has been having some trouble with Wayland (on bazzite-nvidia, GTX 1050 Ti) and I've been wondering whether switching to X11 could fix many performance issues he encounters (Significant FPS drops + constant stutters in games). X11 logs show this: ```[ 538.170] (II) LoadModule: "nvidia" [ 538.170] (WW) Warning, couldn't open module nvidia [ 538.170] (EE) Failed to load module "nvidia" (module does not exist, 0)...

Can't format MicroSD card

Just set up Bazzite on my Ayaneo 2, and I haven't been able to get my MicroSD card to work at all. When trying to do so in Gaming mode through the usual UI, I get the error which says I may have a counterfeit or end of life drive. I tested it with H2TestW, and didn't get any errors. It has worked previously in my old Steam Deck, Switch, and PC. Any idea what might be going on? When I skip verification I get disk write errors when installing games that are more than a few GBs. The MicroSD card is...

Black screen with cursor after typing password

Upgraded from 20250301 to 20250317 and that happened suddenly...I rolled back now but I want to know whether it's an upstream issue or if my installation is just screwy - how would I debug this?

Steam Deck TDP just show 0 levels.

This is the first installation I made of bazzite-deck:testing. Was about to limit the tdp on the steam interface and the TDP controls are just 0, someone knows a workaround or it's just a update bug? I know other handhelds uses other apps, but just made me wonder what steam deck uses....

Virt-manager gpu passthrough, passthrough issues

I am having issues stubbing and using the secondary GPU in my machine. I had done the

ls-iommu -grk

ls-iommu -grk

command to grab the iommu group ID, which ended up being "0000:01:00.0" so I ran

rpm-ostree kargs --append-if-missing="vfio_pci.ids=0000:01:00.0"

rpm-ostree kargs --append-if-missing="vfio_pci.ids=0000:01:00.0"

as instructed by the ujust-virtualization command. I don't know if that's the right ID, as it was much different format than the command suggested. I also can't seem to use that GPU for OpenGL, only it seems to cause graphical errors on the VM screen. Does it matter if the secondary GPU is in the top slot? I have my main GPU in the second slot since it is much bigger and doesn't fit with the mobo up top. SPECS: secondary: GTX 1060 6gb mobo: msi x670 e godlike main: RX 7900XTX...

Solution:

I managed to fix OpenGL by disabling the basic microsoft display adapter
