Xe driver not being used
I was told that Xe driver is now the default one for intel devices however it is still using the i915 driver :

@Kyle Gospo
I do have an older intel device too (using Intel UHD Graphics 615) and it also defaults to i915 driver on latest bazziteah, it's in mesa but not upstream in kernel
that's on me

watch this
Sounds good, may try to force it later this weekend just to test it.
Thx
@Kyle Gospo on bazzite, after permanently unlocking the install.
Whats the right cmd to update grub config after modifying
/etc/default/grub ?What do you mean by permanently unlocking the install?
Also what are you trying to change in grub?
rpm-ostree usroverlay --hotfix
I want to force_probe the Xe driver on my deivcePlease never do that
I cannot support you if you do
This is just for testing, I don't care if it breaks, if it does I will just reinstall everything from scratch
You can do this with rpm-ostree kargs
got it, let me take a look then
@Kyle Gospo nice, xe driver working on my device sadly game mode doesn't work.
It crashes and fallbacks to desktop
