That’s awesome, I never knew that! And someone made a similar tool for Linux as well

I watched Jurassic Park again the other day.

“It’s a Unix system, I know this!”

Nedry had a very custom window manager.

My 8 and 9 year old kids use xubuntu on a 2013 macbook air. They use it for writing stories, making a lot of pixel art with Piko Pixel, and some code block style programming with Lego Spike. They are learning about multi-user systems, file management, etc. I’m keeping an eye out for a cheap pc that can run Minecraft (lots of those right now since people are just trashing old win 10 machines) because the older kid wants to learn how to make Minecraft mods.

It’s always something 😅

That sounds really frustrating. When my 1070 croaks I’m going with an AMD. Probably not going to upgrade before then since I mostly play older games and GPUs are just too expensive these days. First it was crypto mining, now it’s AI… I just want to play my single player RPGs!

That sucks. I have definitely had issues with certain hardware on other machines. Even with this Bazzite install, sleep doesn’t work (thanks to my Gigabyte MB, as the other poster mentioned) and I have some weird behavior with ethernet, but my asus wifi card is working fine, thankfully, and that didn’t work properly on windows when I tried it before I stopped dual booting.

Hopefully you can find something that works well with your setup. The most frustrating issues to debug are ones with support for some specific hardware that isn’t widely used by other Linux users, and may not ever be fully supported. Now that I am fully on linux, next time I upgrade I’m going to try to find components that are proven to work, and will probably be avoiding both Gigabyte and nVidia.

This is beautiful

Huh, I may look into this. Sounds neat. Thanks!

I still had to wait for a long time for shaders to load on initial launch on some games (DA Veilguard) but performance seemed fine. I didn’t have performance issues on Ubuntu so not sure about your particular issues, but another thing to consider is based on your card, the latest nvidia drivers may not be correct - I had to download an older driver package for my card (1070) as recommended by nvidia. Bazzite had me select which series of card I had when downloading the ISO, so I assume it included the older drivers for my card. I haven’t actually checked the installed driver version though

I have heard of rebasing but I haven’t dug into it. Sounds really cool!

I do use my PC for gaming, but Bazzite did come with a lot of other “gaming” software that I don’t use, so it’s good to know there is a lighter weight alternative that otherwise has the same benefits.

I have an older Ryzen 5, 16GB of ram and an nVidia 1070, so not cutting edge for sure. I downloaded the regular desktop version, not the steam big picture console-ish version, and steam account was not required. I just closed the steam window until I was done with my setup. I haven’t seen any performance issues
