Determining and fixing GSoD issue for AMD GPU
Hello! I am very new to using Linux as a gaming platform. I’ve been using the Deck image for my new HTPC with an 7800xt and it works great, but whenever I first boot up my system, it’ll crash into a Green Screen of Death, reboot the system, and then will be fine for hours at a time. I’m not sure what’s causing it or how to fix it. I suspect it’s a driver issue since the 750w PSU is working fine. The problem is I’m not sure how to update or reinstall them on Bazzite. Can someone help me diagnose the problem?

Drivers are part of the kernel, there's no way to update them or reinstall them separate from the entire OS
This is the first report of this I've seen, I have a 6900 XT and @j0rge has a 7900 XT and neither of us have this issue
Ah, perhaps this is a PSU issue then?
I would try to replicate it on a live usb stick perhaps?
Wait, replicate what? The crash? How do you mean?
All right, the strange GSoD is still persisting, but only after initial boot. Not sure how to proceed.
I would try another Linux distro and see if you can reproduce it there
