Back in the early days of Win10, an updated messed up my system and I ended up with duplicated icons. Wasn't happy, but didn't feel that it was that big of a deal to warrant a full reinstall.
2 years ago I built myself a new desktop and decided to try installing Linux straight away. Haven't looked back since.
Civilization 6, Cities Skylines 1 and Space Engineers
Bazzite has been smooth sailing about 80% of the time for me. The rest of the 20% were due to either plasma or runner crashing, requiring me to perform a hard reset using the power button. And then it magically atarted working again. I've also had my home folder become read-only on occasion. Very strange.
Wow, what a very detailed response. I've only been using Bazzite for about two weeks and still learning about it. Now I have a slightly better understanding of how it all works. 👍
I previously used Nobara but recently switched to Bazzite. I think you can give either of these two a shot. I recall Nobara includes a one button install of nvidia drivers. Not too sure about Bazzite since I have an AMD gpu.
Both these distros are gaming focused. Only difference is Nobara is a traditional distro while Bazzite is atomic desktop based.
We need a Command & Conquer Remastered style treatment.
Noted. I guess used the wrong definition for Bazzite and that confused me. LOL.
Good to know that /etc is writable. I might have to download it and give it a spin. Thanks for clarifying.
Have not tried immutable distros, but I like the idea that the core OS is read-only to prevent a rookie user from messing things up.
Then again, if the core OS is read-only, is it at all possible to modify some system files like fstab files to auto-load drives?
I am intrigued. Presently using Nobara right now, and I've been running into strange issues, like the whole system suddenly becoming unwritable and Firefox crashing out of the blue and needing an entire system reboot.
Was trying to get corectrl configured and I was blindly copying text to paste into config files.
Next thing I know, I can't get my system to boot up again. 🤣
Time to reinstall. Again. 😅
Tipping is like paying for DLC / microtransactionw but not getting anything out of it.
Yeah... NAH!
