I have a question about `bazzite arch`
Steam in
bazzite-arch
NSteam doesn't seem to see my NVIDIA card, but does. Will Steam still use the card correctly and/or is this expected behavior? TIA
KI need to update the usage instructions, give me a sec and I'll send you something that should fix it
Ncool, thanks!
KWorkaround for a distrobox bug fixed in git
NI'm happy to help document stuff too
KThat's much appreciated
NAlso, just for context, yes it's a install 
and the
and the bazzite-archfurther context, this system doesn't have switchable graphics, but I do have one that does on which I can also do testing
KWhat's happening on your end is multifaceted
KDistrobox has a Nvidia driver layer/export option but in the currently released build it's broken
KFiles which are symlinks are not added to the box resulting in a broken Vulkan setup
NI did see some messages about that
KAdditionally, no 32bit libraries are copied
KSo there's a temp workaround you can do
KAnd a permanent fix in git, but that version has a bug preventing sudo from working
Npreventing sudo from working in the box, right?
Nguest, not host
KYeah
KBazzite uses assemble to get it running
KThat volume line will fix Vulkan for 64-bit applications
Nso, excuse my ignorance, is this the one that breaks sudo or the temp workaround?
KWorkaround, no issues with sudo
Nokay thank you
Nso looking at this commit, I see where the files in the repo were changed, can I make this change directly on my already created bazzite container, or will I need to recreate it?
Kyou'll have to recreate it, good news is unless you installed new applications yourself it'll be like nothing happened
Ksteam will start up already logged in once it's remade, all your existing shortcuts will work, etc
NOkay, so follow-up questions, and updates.
I mainly use(ed) github for documentation, but if I'm understading things correctly, the commit has already been pushed now?
Would I have had to clone the repo and build the container from local? Again sorry, still getting my bearings with how all of this is set up.
I got to thinking though, and decided to give Bazzite as the host OS a shot, since I would want to be able to game on the machine anyway, and Bazzite works as a full desktop. However, the same issue with vulkan/nvidia happens in the bazzite-arch containter there as well.
What am I doing wrong? haha

KUp until the commit I just pushed bazzite was using distrobox-git which had it's own problems, we're working on a stable release of that
Kas far as the nvidia volume line, did you delete the box and start over?
NYes I did
Kcan you show me what you're seeing in steam regarding vulkan?
NLet me remove the box and re-add it, and I'll get you screenshots!
Kmuch appreciated
NOkay so, I ran again, and this time it moved me from to
KI just pushed that up because of the aforementioned issues with git
N still works fine and shows the correct version for the driver (535)
NI'm going to still remove and re-add the box to see what happens
Ksounds good
Nthe box installed fine, this is what I got when I first ran
steam
Kodd, it's trying to use nouveau
NI can blacklist it
Kwhat's in /etc/vulkan/icd.d ?
Koh yea hold on
Khave you done the kargs and what not needed for nvidia?
KGitHub
Fedora variants with built-in Nvidia drivers. Contribute to ublue-os/nvidia development by creating an account on GitHub.
Kthis and step 3
NI will do that right now
NI do that in the host Terminal yes?
