Bazzite won't recognize my Nvida 1050ti on my Acer Apire 7 Laptop.
I've gone down many rabit holes trying to figure this out and sadly I don't know Linux well enough for it to make sense.
Has anyone found a work around for this issue?
Mainly making Bazzite use my Nvida GPU rather than the on board Intel UHD Graphics 630.

Run switcherooctl in a terminal and post the output
Sorry I didn't Copy and Paste it. I'm using Discord on my main PC and figured a picture would work better than me typing it out hah
So according to that it sees both and uses your Nvidia GPU for any application that requests it
Which includes steam and Lutris
Is there a way to make the Nvidia GPU the default?
Disable the IGPU
If this is a laptop then don't, just as a concept, don't do that
Lol yea it's a laptop. So without doing that. Is there a fix? Even a bandaid fix?
Fix for what? This is working as intended
Oh I mean for bazzite to use my Nvidia GPU rather than the Intel
It should, by default
Anything that requests the alternative GPU is going to use it
Do you have a game that isn't?
Yes. I've been trying to play Path of Exile 2 and it freezes right before it fully loads.
Why does that mean it's on the wrong GPU though?
Let's set
PROTON_LOG=1 %command% to the launch options
And then let it crash
