Bazzite is a cloud native image built upon Fedora Atomic Desktops that brings the best of Linux gaming to all of your devices - including your favorite handheld.
I'm no tech expert so I'm not sure If I happen to make a mistake here. I did a fresh new install of Bazzite on a PC I was saving up for so I can use it as a powerful console like experience. I made sure I bought a PC that had AMD processor and GPU so that the PC would have no issues logging into gaming mode. But gaming mode does not appear to work on my PC.
What did you expect to happen?
I'm on the KDE Plasma version of bazzite. I see the icon to press to go to gaming mode, I click it, it logs me out, and then It takes me back to desktop mode again.
Additionally, when I restart my PC it takes a long time before the desktop shows up, almost as if it tries to have multiple attempts to log into game mode, fails and then it just default to go back to desktop mode.
For my hardware I have a 24 × AMD Ryzen 9 7900X3D 12-Core Processor, AMD Radeon Graphics (I believe this is the internal gpu), and ryzen 7900 xtx gpu
