Have all new stuff all AMD. Running bazzite and the gpu ( 9070 xt ) does not work, when I plug in the monitor to either port type it just compresses everything up at the top of the screen all warped. Everything works fine on the MB ports not sure what I might have done to screw it up. Saw some posts talking about proper versions for the kernel and mesa and both those seemed to be new enough for the GPU ( 6.14.4-104.bazzite.fc42.x86_64 (64-bit) ) and Mesa 25.0.1

Those errors seemed to be in games from their posts though my monitor will not even display the desktop or anything else properly what am I missing?

edit

I was waiting for the card to come down in price and I put my old 3060 TI into this new system at first. How do I check if the drivers updated to new ones or if I have to do it manually? Maybe that is what is wrong

Does the boot screen look ok? Does the login screen look ok?

I had a problem with my new 9070 on debian KDE, and the issue was with color accuracy setting

Have you checked the bios on your board? Just did a bazzite/AMD situation myself with a 9070. My aorus b650 needed bios updates.

Is it this issue? - https://github.com/ublue-os/bazzite/issues/2344

Someone fixed a similar issue by setting their display color accuracy to "Prefer Efficency" instead of "Prefer Accuracy"

you can boot ostree:1 change the setting, run sudo ostree admin pin 1 then rebase back to testing (not reboot to ostree:0) that should hopefully work around it

Did you install the Nvidia version of Bazzite? And if so, did you rebase to the non-Nvidia version?

Either way it might be worth a clean install.

Rebase is essentially switching the versions of Bazzite you have installed without a complete reinstall

Try rpm-ostree rebase ostree-unverified-registry:ghcr.io/ublue-os/bazzite-gnome:stable

Or whatever your preferred configuration is.

[-] Necroscope0@lemm.ee 1 points 11 hours ago

Yeah that did not seem to work using the rebase command I copied from Bazzites website for the version I need it gave me an error part way through

Looks like I will probably just have to do a reinstall with the proper one

[-] Ulrich@feddit.org 4 points 11 hours ago

Yeah that's probably best

[-] anamethatisnt@sopuli.xyz 5 points 14 hours ago

Test with a fedora 42 live usb to verify it isn't bazzite I'd say

[-] Necroscope0@lemm.ee -1 points 13 hours ago

What is that, using a different operating system to try to boot? Is this just to check if the hardware itself is bad?

[-] golden_zealot@lemmy.ml 4 points 12 hours ago* (last edited 12 hours ago)

It's to verify if either a configuration in Bazzite is the cause(such as your drivers), or if it is hardware related. The other comment asking if you installed the Nvidia version of Bazzite suspects driver issues as well, so a live USB would be able to rule it out or confirm it.

Alternatively, and probably the better option is to just take backups of your files and such and then reinstall Bazzite to the system, making sure you are using a version that is compatible with your graphics card. You don't seem as though you know a tonne about Linux, so I would probably recommend that over trying to rebase the OS, as it will generally be easier for you to do I think, and more completely insure system stability.

Basically, linux can be used before installing and its called a live disk. Make a boot drive with etcher and boot into it. Been using Nebora project (fedora 42) and its been great so far

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.
