From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

What does Bazzite brings that Nobara doesnt already?

[–] [email protected] 13 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Bazzite also has the backing of a bigger group of developers and community. Whereas Nobara is developed by a solo (kudos to him). But I would say Bazzite differs quite a bit too with its immutability, automatic updates, and thanks to libostree technology, after every update the previous version of the operating system is retained on your machine. This means, should an update cause any issues, you can select the previous image at boot. Additionally, it has support for gamescope, meaning Steam can boot straight into Big Screen mode, which is very handy for gaming pcs and steam decks etc.. Can read the rest of the details over at bazzite.gg, if you're not convince :P

Would you have any idea why bazzite.gg is consistently crashing android firefox? Trying to scroll past "waydroid" makes the app reload and is taking some of my services with it, which is really weird.

That's sounds weird, just tried myself and works fine here. Maybe try in private mode (or without extensions)? Assuming you have not enabled all extensions via private tab.

It only happens with the mobile version of the site, desktop version is fine.

The crash still happens in a private tab, as well as the in-app firefox browser on Boost. Even when disabling uBlock, still crashes.

Is this due to an old android version maybe? I'm still rocking android 9, would that limit firefox somehow? Firefox is still 125.2.0, so that's not old yet.

Maybe it's using too much memory. That would explain why firefox isn't making a crash log, and might explain why my services are dying too. The issue is always with the "work with your hardware, not for it" section, which never loads and always causes a crash when it should load but never before. Perhaps there's a big memory leak there in the mobile version?

Sounds like something worth mentioning to the Devs at least 😅

Hey! Would you happen to know the keyboard command to bring up the side panels when in a game in game mode? I know ctrl-1 and ctrl-2 work when outside the game but they don't appear to work when in a game.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 months ago

Immutability, mainly.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago

I don't know if its still the case but originally Nobara was a "this is for me but you can use it too" type of project.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago

I'm curious too. I'm definitely gonna have to think about looking up how they compare to each other followed by how they compare to SteamOS.
