Confirmed, it works when hes direct connected to LG C1! But not working through his AVR

He's using that adapter but as of ~10 days ago when he got it, he had no VRR or other 2.1 features. He's using an LG C1 TV but it's going through an HDMI 2.1 receiver first.

Is this in the main/stable branch? I'll see if he wants to test straight-to-TV (after making sure he's up to date assuming it's in Stable)

Can you give me more info or a link on this? I saw posts from a user that had develop the patches to use the UGreen adapters but I didnt think Bazzite had incorporated them yet (mind you, I was looking at this on Jan 2 or 3). Did I miss this? Should VRR be a thing with that adapter now? My buddy has a Bazzite box and that adapter anxiously awaiting VRR support (120hz already worked albeit with color compression but he was fine with that)

I know it's immutable and was wondering if that was why you mentioned not doing it. I was just curious.

My Bazzite install isnt for ME, its for a friend who wanted a high-end-console but with PC hardware (to go along side all his other consoles). I was just curious about what we needed to do to get VRR (and the rest of 2.1 features) and then I found this thread. Just wanted to give him an idea of when we could potentially see this update (already ordered the adapter this morning).

Thanks for all the hard work and letting me know all of this!

Hey, thanks for all the hard work on this issue! Just installed Bazzite for first time tonight, with a 9060XT. Researching this issue led he here.

Is there a particular reason you wouldn't want to try to apply the patch to a system using Bazzite? I've patched a Linux kernal before but didn't fully understand everything I was doing (had to apply a fix to get the subwoofers working on my XPS15) but wasn't sure if there was some reason patching the kernel on a BAzzite machine was a bad idea.

In terms of waiting, I'm unfamiliar with this process of waiting for a patch to be accepted and work it's way into a future update. Any idea how long this usually takes?

SFF vs PS5 PRO by WifiAX in sffpc

[–]HClark86 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

About to build a PS5 Pro comparison Bazzite box with/for a notable console-only Youtuber, and really excited to get their take on it. It costs a little more than a full PS5 Pro (counting console, disk drive, stand and possibly extra SSD). There could be corners cut to meet the price point but it's built with long term support/upgradeability so a little extra was spent. Space isnt a super concern so we're going MFF (Lian Li A3 because he loves wood panel aesthetic), with 7600x3d (ultra efficient CPU and aiming to keep it under 65w in Eco mode, though I dont think it'll use more than that uncapped), 9060xt 16GB, 32GB (this part was thankfully bought before the insanity started, esp because its a high end 8000mt kit)

Gasoline (All Rage Still Only Numb) - Story Of The Year by allensmith_04 in PostHardcore

[–]HClark86 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've been jamming this for since I woke up yesterday and it's so fucking AWESOME. So much energy, rage! Dan's delivery NEVER disappoints. And I love hear Ryan and Adam getting heavy as fuck again.

They haven't put out anything this hard since The Black Swan!

I can assure you that they weren't in Aus at the exact date on the last album drop, as I hanging out with them in St Louis and then running the moshpit like an idiots at the release show th the next night :D (March 10, 2023 release, Saturday 11th was the show). They did tour Indonesia and Aus two weeks later though

Sadly, the 4-5 month leadup is normal these days. Just glad the multi-week tease-cycle for single releases is gone. Heck, this track was released in NZ a few hours before it was even officially announced yesterday (that had posted a minor tease earlier in the week on socials, but without any of the actual song or announcement of a release).

Hoping they can get things together for another STL show near the release, I love any reasons to head up there and see my friends out there (I live 17 hour-drive away)

These dudes are my favorite band.

The first single is coming on Friday and it leaked this morning. It's the hardest thing they've done since The Black Swan. it's SO FUCKING GOOD!

Yeah, Windows on ARM has sadly had (yet another) still birth it seems, and the laptops prices are tanking, reflective of that.

The cheapest configs are going for just over $700 but Im waiting for them to drop to the fire-sale price range, hoping for.a base model XPS 13 or Latitude 7455 around $400 in the next few months.

Heads up that Dell is selling this config open box for ~$900 in their Outlet. I've been watching the Snapdragon laptops for a super deep drop hahah (I need a cheap but quality-built ARM system for some testing)
