Only the kernel module is open source, and it’s just a wrapper for closed source blobs.
In actuality the open source drivers just kill all support for the 10 series, and otherwise do nothing to fix Nvidia’s utterly fucked up driver problems.
Bazzite lead developer here, we actually never used the flatpak. Our first release had it installed in a distrobox container on the desktop images. Deck images always had RPM Steam because Steam is essentially functioning as a desktop environment there. We moved them both to be RPM for support consistency reasons.
The very first release was actually a steam deck release, the desktop release came later.
I read the complaints and I lost all respect. I will not be spending another cent with that company, nor will I attend any of his future talks.
I am very ashamed that I own a single wolfire title.
Gamescope is broken on Nvidia and has been for years.
It currently breaks Firefox, but they’re working on it.
Bazzite doesn’t use flatpak steam. Standard rpm install with no sandboxing.
If you installed it that’s entirely your fault.
Your use case works
Funny enough we just finished our website yesterday lmao
The testing build of Bazzite should have everything in your bottom link and more ;)
The main difference, and what got me to start this project, is that you can layer on packages. This means no more dealing with disabling read-only and losing your changes every time you update.
Besides that, this incorporates a huge number of community made features such as SDGyroDSU and Discover Overlay OOTB, a newer kernel than even SteamOS 3.6, DisplayLink support, Nvidia support (on desktop), and so on.
It's essentially become an immutable/atomic gaming spin on Fedora, with full support for the deck.
Only missing feature compared to SteamOS 3.6 is HDR, we're waiting for Fedora to land it in stable rather than port all of that from SteamOS.
And then of course there's a ton of features we add that SteamOS doesn't have. We build from stable Fedora and keep our patches minimal so the intent is for Bazzite to be as stable.

Preview of the next release, need to fix an issue with Xbox controller detection and then we'll add it to the Bazzite Portal for anyone to easily use.
And yes, the SteamOS keyboard works!
I don't, why are you speaking for 7 billion people?
Just make sure it's mounted in fstab, same as any other distro. If it's a permanent drive I would mount it to /var/mnt/ChangeMe
For that, check out Bluefin or Aurora. They’re all under the same umbrella as Bazzite, but with a user/developer focus instead of a gaming focus.
