What’s more the diversity helps with the quality. All pieces must be compatible with different variations, forcing software to be more bulletproof.

I thought you meant attachments

So a lot smaller distro support,

If Apple hardware can get Asahi Linux, I bet more open devices can get even better distro support.

no(?) windows support

you’re posting in a Linux community.

and only little or emulated game support. Though, I’d guess Valve is smart enough and has built an X86_64 -> Arm Emulator into Proton

They emulate x86 thanks to a project named FEX

One of the reasons why I love my immutable distro: if an update breaks things, I just reboot and select the previous image in GRUB.

Windows upgrades sound like a nightmare anyway, no way I’d trust an upgraded installation. Fresh install or nothing.

(I don’t think it works for audio/video?)

it does

I want them all, but mostly the Frame. Finally decent Linux VR? On a standalone device that can also stream from a PC? On ARM?! It seems too good to be true.

Found this on the issue tracker, it tells you to try deleting the wine prefix, also from the error it does seem like a wine problem (can’t load a dll, those are windows libraries), not a system problem.

So right now you’re on Bazzite? And you’ve run this in distrobox on a fedora container? What happens if you run it directly on Bazzite, ignoring the dependency installation (those packages are all already on Bazzite, if you want you can check yourself with rpm --query --all | grep -i packagename).

BTW, asking for help is an option, they have a discord.

And explaining actions in text is much more difficult than just showing them

which came out in '97

unlike many printed guides, gamefaqs guides came out some time after game release, because average people didn’t have preview versions of the game to play

If you explain, maybe I can point you in the right direction

Well I disagree. I tried Bazzite on my desktop and then installed it on my laptop, even though I seldom play games on it. I’m a long-time Linux user and a tinkerer, and so far I haven’t found anything I wanted to do and I couldn’t.

I can compile software with compilers from distrobox, I can design and slice 3d parts and send them to my printers, manage my servers, customize my system… Sure you can’t easily change your DE, although I guess it would be somewhat possible with rpm-ostree, but other than that I don’t see many limitations.

The main difference is that you should refer to Bazzite’s docs FIRST, because if you just search the web for your issue/goal, you’re going to find instructions that may not be compatible with an immutable distro.

Agree on distrobox and I’d put it before homebrew

Don’t take this wrong, but you should refrain from commenting on what you don’t know. Immutable distros have to fight a lot of disinformation already.

Yeah, I don’t understand OP’s post, in good part because it’s really not saying anything, just mentioning some vague “problems!”, what are those problems, that distrobox can’t handle?

but for desktop use it limits you a lot

For example? Because I’ve read this repeated a lot by people who don’t understand immutable distros. Of course you can’t “dnf install clang”, but you can use distrobox for that, ends up fairly similar.

C’est frainçaise

Hmmm, yeah I think it’s mostly that documentation online isn’t compatible with immutable distros.
For example the login screen background can easily be changed from the KDE Settings, but if you search online docs it probably tells you to edit something in /usr, and that’s on the immutable part of the filesystem, changing that need an overlay I think.

May I ask:
Are these your first Linux experiences?
What is it about Bazzite that you didn’t like?

I’m asking for future reference, I’ve got friends who are getting curious and to me Bazzite seems quite beginner-friendly, but I’m not a beginner so maybe I’m missing something

First thing I wanna implore you do is create a separate partition on your boot drive for your /home folder. Distro hopping is super normal when you’re starting out, and by separating your home folder makes distro hopping very easy.

Nowadays with the various distros’ differences in filesystem preference and layout, I think an external backup would be better.
