Black screen with blinking white bar in top left after fresh install
I'm trying to install bazzite-nvidia-stable on an old dell optiplex with an i7-980 and a 750ti and 8gb of ram (on a fresh samsung 1tb ssd). The install seemed fine (I used fedora media writer to make my bootable usb and confirmed the sha256 checksum of the iso I downloaded from bazzite's site). On first boot it gave the kargs message and then rebooted. On the next boot (and all following) it shows the bazzite logo with the white loading circle and then just goes to a black screen with a white blinking cursor in the top left.
I did some searching for past threads and some suggested going back to the 2024-9-30 build which I'm going to try. But before I do that I was wondering how to try and diagnose the issue better before just running an older version of the installer. It seems similar issues but not exactly the same has been posted here (at least from my quick searches).
EDIT: Forgot to add that I let it sit on that black screen for 30mins just to make sure it wasn't doing anything and I was using the kde version

Prism can't detect java (openjdk)
Prism used to just work but it seems something broke since the last time I played minecraft. I can't seem to get it to detect openjdk (installed via brew). I would rather not use the option "Auto-download Mojang Java" within Prism as it often results in worse performance. I did a system upgrade and rebooted then ran the commands below.
When I run
java -version in a terminal I get:
When I run command -v java I get:
I ran brew unlink openjdk && brew link openjdk and everything linked fine.
I'm unable to get prism to detect java even when I manually search for it. Any help would be appreciated.23 replies

All manual sleep triggers cause pc to immediately wake but auto sleep functions (mostly) correct
I'm having a hard time figuring out why this is happening. If I wait for my pc to sleep automatically (see settings below) then things function as expected (screen turns off, pc lights/fans turn off, pressing any key wakes the pc). But if I press my power button to sleep the pc, go to the start menu and press sleep, or run systemctl suspend the computer will enter sleep for like 2 seconds and then just wake up on it's own. I don't even know where to start diagnosing what is going on since sleep does work but only when it kicks in automatically.
EDIT: Also the reason for the "(mostly) correct" in the title is one time my pc automatically entered sleep mode (screen turned off) but my pc lights were on and my fans were running at full speed. It seemed to be a one time fluke and I didn't have anything unusal open.
