just installed bazzite which is my first linux os

can anyone give me a rundown on basic programs and what they do that i should be aware of please or point me to a guide that does that and can I run games/apps that already have on my windows drive and this drive? also i think the nvidia drivers are already included in bazzite but how to i access nvdia control panel and the geforce app like in windows ? please and thanks

1. https://docs.bazzite.gg 2. yes but no, running games from an NTFS filesystem is not supported by us or valve as proton does not support it. if you want to share games between windows and linux we recommend a shared btrfs partition and using the winbtrfs driver in windows (non steam games from gog and epic in windows will not work using their official launchers like this, but they will work using the heroic games launcher in windows) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h6fc-3CCXbA ...
