Rebase to Nvidia?
Can you swap to an Nvidia image from a non-Nvidia Bazzite image? My desktop pc is out of commission right now, but I wanted to run some heavier stuff on my media-center, so I added an RTX 3060 instead of just having it run off the AMD apu.

Yes you may swap back and forth at any time
All images have the AMD drivers so if you're going to AMD it doesn't matter if you do it before or after you swap the hardware
Just make sure the desktop environment stays the same
I am actively trying to rebase drivers as well. I am new to silverblue, and dont quite understand what i am supposed to do to switch from mesa drivers to official nvidia drivers. Everything i see online says i need to rebase, but when i use the bazzite-rollback-helper, i just see a bunch of versions. i dont see anything that indicates what drivers are present. clearly i am missing something fundumental to this process.
Solution
If you go to the website and fill out the downloader for nvidia
It'll give you a rebase command you can use
thank you!
Thanks for your help!
i am a bit confused:
i installed the nvidia-version and switched to an AMD-card. should i rebase to AMD-version or is it not necessary?
Yes, rebase
Not necessary for the card to work, will save drive space and enable features Nvidia can't use
so i did the
rpm-ostree rebase ostree-unverified-registry:ghcr.io/ublue-os/bazzite:stable
and after rebooting if i "rpm-ostree status" it still shows:
ostree-image-signed:docker://ghcr.io/ublue-os/bazzite-nvidia-open:stable
is this normal or did do something wrong?
