Need some help in classification of different bazzite images

So, as the title says I am little confused regarding the different bazzite images available to download. Currently I have installed the 'other laptop' one on my Lenovo 15ach6 has a Radeon igpu + gtx1650 Q Games run good and all out of the box, but I am not able to see the performance overlay. I am only able to see the small fps counter on the left. I am talking about something like this. I figured maybe it has to do something with the htpc or the desktop version, but preferred to ask first before reinstalling it bunch of times. Any help is appreciated and thanks in advance

The iso name is the image you're using (Or, even better - whatever it says when you're running rpm-ostree status) You're probably running bazzite-nvidia Which would be the same whatever you choose Other Laptop, Desktop, or htpc

@Kasher_CS yess I now seen to have grasped how the naming scheme for works here. I tried the bazzite-nvidia version yesterday and that worked well with the set back of having no performance overlays options except fps counter. I installed the bazzite-deck right now and it seems to have the performance overlay options, but I had to disable the dgpu for it to even boot. So Is there any possible way to run the game of of dgpu and keep the performance overlays. Also if you don't mind , if I am correct then gamescope can work on any version of bazzite whether it being nvidia or amd?

Also, FYI, you can switch between the versions without reinstalling afaik gamescope (Not the session) works, so you can try toggling that

time machine nvidia right now no amd yes, mostly after 2021 but nvidia is making progress, 560 driver maybe it starts working if you want the overlay, you can add mangoapp to the launch options

you'll need a time machine for it to work on nvidia although

What about gamescope? Is that feasible right now on bazzite ??
antheas
antheasā€¢5mo ago
with a bunch of hacks you can get gamescope to launch the steam menu
Radiant Ashes
Radiant AshesOPā€¢5mo ago
I tried launching it from cmd but , it wasn't perfectly usable you see

You mean gamescope session or gamescope the microcompositor?

I already have great windows installation+hackintosh setup , just wanted to test steam os this year

If you want to test something even closer to steamos than you can disable your GPU and run bazzite-deck
Radiant Ashes
Radiant AshesOPā€¢5mo ago
I see , I have installed deck version rn, probably have to uninstall or rebade that
Kasher_CS
Kasher_CSā€¢5mo ago
Rebasing is very easy
Radiant Ashes
Radiant AshesOPā€¢5mo ago
You by disabling the dgpu? It is disabled That is how I was able to boot With it on , it would get stuck at launching steam
Kasher_CS
Kasher_CSā€¢5mo ago
If the performence is good enough for you, you can stay on Bazzite-deck

Naah it sucks bro, the igpu is decent but can't even push above 30fps on genshin.

They could have pushed for more, but they didn't. Obviously they have very different goals
