I cannot for the life of me get bazzite to use the Nvidia gpu in my laptop for shit. Like proper 3d games refuse to launch and simpler 2d games run but at like 4fps. The icon in the system tray for gpu selection/info won't let me select dgpu, only integrated and hybrid. Gpu basically never gets touched. I'm sure it's less of a bazzite issue and more of an Nvidia drivers on Linux issue, but can't really test full functionality of bazzite like this.

And that's with the Asus laptop Nvidia gpu specific image of bazzite. Very disappointed because I otherwise love bazzite. I have been keeping the windows drive in the laptop specifically for gaming until I can figure out how to fix this. I wish there were more laptop options with amd dGPUs... Looked at microcenter today and there was only one option. :(

My nvidia card works but is quite old and of little use. Nvidia is traditionally bad on linux and from what I can gather seems like is still hit or miss on normal distros, let alone atomic/immutable distros like bazzite. I would imagine the steam os release will be troublesome for nvidia users too but maybe valve has some more magic tricks to pull.
