It’s that time once again!

As of today, Kernel 7.0.9 is available on our stable branch, along with Valve’s VRAM patch set (Functional on both KDE & GNOME), Mesa 26.1, Bazaar 0.8.1, Nvidia-open 610, various Xbox controller fixes, and more!

Additionally, Bazzite-DX is now on our Fedora 44 base and once again building in lockstep with stable, and the Fedora 44 version of our deck images has hit testing!

We ask that you give the testing deck images a try only if you’re adventurous and willing to deal with breaking bugs. Lots of improvements to those images are still in the pipe and we will get them into stable as soon as possible.

In the near future, look for our newly rebuilt desktop updater and rebasing application, OpengamepadUI overlay for deck, and greatly improved support for handhelds like the Legion GO 2.

Thanks again for your collective patience with us while we work on these major changes. We look forward to sharing more with you soon!

PS: Kernel 7.0.11 will hit stable very soon with more patches.

Is the driver (nct6687) for controlling fans not coming back?

4

It will once it’s updated

5

Great, thank you for the information!

I was hoping the rainbow Bazzite icon would be included as an option since the release happened during pride month. In any case, the updates sound solid, and my computer updated when I booted up this morning without me even noticing. Not sure if I’ll ever get used to updates being seamless. :slightly_smiling_face:

7

With Bazzite 44.20260605, it looks like the Reboot option at the end of ujust update no longer requires sudo elevation (i.e., a password). Is that expected behavior?

8

Should we expect Plasma 6.7 along with kernel 7.0.11? I recently ran into an HDR bug that should be solved by the changes coming in the next version of Plasma.

9

Plasma 6.7 hasnt released yet. Official release is next tuesday, the 16th

10

If you mean the Nvidia bug, that patch has been backported and is in the latest Bazzite update already, no need to wait.

11

Do we have any news on the support for the MT7902 wifi/bluetooth card?

12

Has 44 Bazzite-Deck-Stable been released yet? The Testing branch was not a good experience, it broke all sort of things and resulted in a non booting system for me, had to revert to a pinned image of 43 to get back into the GameUI.

13

Steam’s background recording seems to be broken in the latest testing build. I’m not sure where is the right place to report it.

14

Same here. I came across an issue when opening decky (I don’t update it frequently) and the screen went black with basic white text saying some component was not able to be loaded (message as cut off). After force shutdown, I couldn’t boot into the OS, screen kept flashing green every few seconds or so. I went back to v43, updated decky, tried again and still couldn’t boot into it. So rolled back entirely. (AMD deck gnome)

15

Yep, I have major issues as well, as soon as I rebase to 44 testing, I boot up to a black screen, I cant see or do anything, CTL+ALT+DEL does reboot the machine though, I just reboot back to my pinned Bazzite 43 and remove Bazzite-Deck Testing 44, I have tried a number of times, today aswell, I cant work it out, I also removed any layered packages by resting rpm-ostree, but no luck, my system is pretty straight forward, 7900X and 9070 XT.

17

On the subject of bazzite-deck still being at 43, can mesa at least be updated to 26.1+?

Just found out today that mesa 26.0.4 in the latest stable tag has a nasty bug on Radeon 9000 series when running EDuke32 based games :sob:

It’s fixed in 26.1.

I am quite new user and confused.
My Bazzite desktop is still running version 43 stable release channel.

ujust update

says that there is no update.

Releases show multiple stable 44 releases.

How to update?

19

Do you have layered packages? On my install a layered application silently blocked updates for some time.

What’s your rpm-ostree status?

I have deck version not desktop. :slight_smile:
But should it still be at 44 version?

21

I think the deck image iss still on 43…See the posts above here.

22

Ok.
I installed Bazzite to my HTPC and did not pay attention that desktop and deck versions follow different release cycle.
I have only been following Github release notes so I was wondering why I am still at 43 version.
Thanks! Now I am less confused…
