beardymcgeeOP•9/12/24, 12:18 PM

antheas•9/12/24, 12:18 PM

Is this an og ally?

beardymcgeeOP•9/12/24, 12:18 PM

ally x

antheas•9/12/24, 12:18 PM

Did you use the card previously with an ally

beardymcgeeOP•9/12/24, 12:18 PM

and works fine in windows only, bazzite has the issue

beardymcgeeOP•9/12/24, 12:19 PM

yep but didnt have an issue and i fixed mine

beardymcgeeOP•9/12/24, 12:20 PM

before it ever failed

antheas•9/12/24, 12:20 PM

Maybe your sd card is a bit screwy after that incident don't know

beardymcgeeOP•9/12/24, 12:20 PM

also does it with other sd cards never used on ally

antheas•9/12/24, 12:20 PM

Google searches don't have a lot of results

antheas•9/12/24, 12:20 PM

Are you on the latest bios?

beardymcgeeOP•9/12/24, 12:21 PM

yeah thats why im stuck as google is loaded with ally but not ally x...

beardymcgeeOP•9/12/24, 12:21 PM

yep

beardymcgeeOP•9/12/24, 12:21 PM

and also only bazzite has the issue

antheas•9/12/24, 12:21 PM

How did you format the SD card

antheas•9/12/24, 12:21 PM

Did you try other distros?

beardymcgeeOP•9/12/24, 12:22 PM

tried, formating in bazzite/windows/steam deck

beardymcgeeOP•9/12/24, 12:22 PM

from full wipe of all partitions as well

antheas•9/12/24, 12:22 PM

Did you create a new partition table?

beardymcgeeOP•9/12/24, 12:23 PM

yep

antheas•9/12/24, 12:23 PM

Also check if the card is slotted properly

beardymcgeeOP•9/12/24, 12:23 PM

in both windows and bazzite

beardymcgeeOP•9/12/24, 12:23 PM

yep it is

antheas•9/12/24, 12:23 PM

This is a hardware error

antheas•9/12/24, 12:23 PM

Or kernel driver error

antheas•9/12/24, 12:24 PM

If you're committed to reinstalling try a bazzite build from a month or two ago by rebasing

beardymcgeeOP•9/12/24, 12:24 PM

yeah im leaning towards kernel driver as ive gone to town on it on the windows side without issue....

antheas•9/12/24, 12:24 PM

Also do a ram check

beardymcgeeOP•9/12/24, 12:25 PM

yep did that one

beardymcgeeOP•9/12/24, 12:25 PM

which bazzite should i go back too?

antheas•9/12/24, 12:25 PM

Do a version 1-2 weeks after ally x support was added

beardymcgeeOP•9/12/24, 12:26 PM

so just go current 3.7.0 then as ally x was added on 3.6.0?

antheas•9/12/24, 12:29 PM

Ignore the version numbers go by date

antheas•9/12/24, 12:29 PM

You can find the builds on the packages section of the github

antheas•9/12/24, 12:29 PM

Then do rpm ostree rebase

beardymcgeeOP•9/12/24, 12:47 PM

beardymcgeeOP•9/12/24, 12:52 PM
