    Were you using an AMD graphic card with HDMI 2.1 connection to a monitor/TV?

    Because it happened to me that the HDMI connection stopped working after a Bazzite update, and I had to downgrade to Bazzite 44.20260802 (see the Github ticket here), which seems to be the last stable release without the problem.

    My understanding is that the problem is still present in Bazzite 45… and it likely won’t be resolved until the next Kernel update (7.3.1) lands. The good news is that it just recently was updated on the unstable branch… I haven’t tested but if the issue is fixed there, I’m hopping it will be ready by the end of this month, since they normally roll updates every few weeks.

      No, I’m still on a nvidia card and I’m not sure what version hdmi my monitor is

      My comment is more general vibe of my experience with bazzite. similar to what Staff below me said, sometimes it just have some weird inconvenient ways to do things when I need to, for example, use the terminal to look up some folders or change things. idk I admit I’m still not too good doing things in the terminal but adding another layer of having to learn what an immutable distro adds on top seems to be tripping me more.

        I do not have an Nivida card, but I udnerstand Nvidia on bazzite (and linux in general) is tougher than AMD to get things working nicely. As for the terminal, I have never once NEEDED to use to terminal in the last year. I have of course used it to do things, but it was rarely the Only way to do what I was trying to do.

        Maybe what I am about to say is unpopular, but once I stopped trying to install programs that dont have a flapak from the bazzar store, my life got easier. Of course to counter that statement, I have several programs that are appimages that I control via Gearlevel, then a few windows apps running via faugus.

        Also if anything tells you to use lutris, it is wrong, lutris imo is crap, and should not be sued ever; Lutris has not worked once for me.
