Installing ExpressVpn

Trying to install expressvpn. I've tried using distrobox and a podman container. Neither have worked so far. It also isn't on the software center For distrobox I've tried both a fedora and a ubuntu container. The install seems to quit out early in both cases I've tried using their installer but that quits out early, and too fast for me to read the message for as to why it's failing For expressvpn I've been trying this docker-compose but it gets into a crash loop after activating:

services:
  expressvpn:
    container_name: expressvpn
    image: misioslav/expressvpn:latest
    environment:
      - CODE={activation_code}
    cap_add:
      - NET_ADMIN
    devices: 
      - /dev/net/tun
    command: /bin/bash
    stdin_open: true
    tty: true
    privileged: true
    restart: always
    network_mode: "host"
    ports:
      - 8080:8080
    dns:
      - 1.1.1.1
      - 8.8.8.8

Ubisoft connect install getting lost

I installed ubisoft connect by adding it as a non-steam game and setting proton compatibility. It worked, then I was able to install assassins creed shadows and everything worked fine. When installing ubi connect + assassins creed it saves it under

/home/bazzite/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/compatdata/3151581346/pfx/drive_c/Program Files (x86)/Ubisoft/Ubisoft Game Launcher/

. That folder no longer exists, it's gone. I have no idea where ubisoft connect or assassins creed are installed. Anyone have an idea as to what happened?

Using gamescope causes controller to not work

I'm running a game with gamescope (monster hunter rise), and when I do, my controller no longer gets picked up by the game. I'm using gamescope with this command: DXVK_HDR=1 gamescope -f --hdr-enabled -W 2560 -H 1440 -- %command% The command seems to otherwise be working. I've tried adding the -e arg as well as I read somewhere that that can help with controller issues, but that just makes the window not fit my screen properly, still with controller issues. I've also tried messing with steam input on/off. Nothing there worked This is on bazzite with KDE. AMD 7800XT if that's relevant

Onboard bluetooth has poor range on bazzite

My motherboard (UF GAMING X570-PLUS) has onboard bluetooth plus an antenna for extended range. I have the antenna connected and that has worked fine both on windows and on pop_os. Just testing things on bazzite now, if I'm right next to my PC, things are fine. If I sit away from my PC on my couch (about 3-4 meters), the connection gets really sketchy and unplayable. Trying to see what I can do to diagnose this I tried seeing if the antenna is connected:

bazzite@bazzite:~$ lsusb | grep -i bluetooth
Bus 003 Device 002: ID 8087:0025 Intel Corp. Wireless-AC 9260 Bluetooth Adapter

bazzite@bazzite:~$ lsusb | grep -i bluetooth
Bus 003 Device 002: ID 8087:0025 Intel Corp. Wireless-AC 9260 Bluetooth Adapter

Besides that, not sure where else to go for troubleshooting

How do you enter steam gaming mode from the desktop image?

I've looked everywhere. If the answer to this is in the docs, it's very well hidden.

HDR, Gnome, AMD and Gamescope

I'm trying to get HDR working on a fresh bazzite install. I'm using gnome, I have an HDR capable monitor and running an AMD 7800XT I have this as my launch options: gamescope -e --hdr-enabled -- %command% I've also tried with -w 2560 -h 1440 and also adding -W 2560 -H 1440 I'm using helldivers 2 to test this with as it has an HDR toggle in the display settings. None of these allow me to toggle on HDR. I also don't have an option to toggle HDR in my display settings as I've seen in other threads.

Running docker containers in bazzite

I'm moving over from pop_os. I have some docker-compose files for jellyfin/sonarr/qbittorrent. How do I install docker on bazzite. It looks like distrobox might be the equivalent here. This is my first time on a fedora based distro and an atomic distro so just want to know what the established patterns are
