ASUS TUF A16 - System hangs on KDE login
I've been having troubles for the past few weeks now (see https://discord.com/channels/1072614816579063828/1087140957096517672/1336852421728665610), any time I attempt to update my Laptop (an ASUS TUF Gaming A16 FA617XS).
As soon as I attempt to login to KDE following an update, the system almost always hangs, with the loading wheel freezing, and the desktop never appearing, no matter how long I leave the system.
On rare occasions, the system does actually login following an update, but while it swiftly move to the desktop in those instances, this is accompanied with continuous extreme graphical artifacts (similar to what was reported here - https://discord.com/channels/1072614816579063828/1339306326521544745/1339306326521544745), which make the system basically impossible to use effectively.
I'm able to use the system for now by rolling back to the last known working image (bazzite-asus:stable-41.20250106.3), which doesn't suffer from of these issues. That's obviously not a long-term working solution though, so I'm hoping someone might be able to identify what it is in the images since this which could be causing the problem.

bazzite-asus stuck on iGPU, doesn't recognise AMD dGPU
Hi all. Just tried setting up Bazzite for the first time on my ASUS TUF A16, using the bazzite-asus image. While the system sees the AMD 780M iGPU just fine, it can't seem to see the AMD RX 7700S dGPU at all. switcherooctl list only shows a single device with ID 0 (https://paste.centos.org/view/f1d43c85).
The dGPU continues to be properly recognised in Windows 10, and it was being recognised in Kubuntu right up until I wiped that partition to replace it with Bazzite, so I can at least rule a hardware issue out. Not entirely sure if this is a bug or just some sort of configuration issue though. Would greatly appreciate any assistance.
