Once the bluetooth stack updated and both steam and the OS were fighting for which one was doing the controller emulation for the nintendo switch pro controllers. I just went in and turned off the OS controller support in the bluetooth settings.
That’s literally the only problem I’ve had in… 9 months of this setup?
Yeah, it was kinda frustrating cause I was trying to start a group game. BUT, I just clicked around a bit and figured it out, took maybe 5 minutes (of people watching me).
Before that I used Windows for my console PC, and I can honestly say that CachyOS is easier to use than Windows, and less likely for an update to break something.
I’m running a 4070 super on my setup with cachyos with zero issues. I never had to do any special setup or anything. I think when I first installed, I was running off the displayport on my motherboard to be safe, but if I remember correctly, the OS detected my Nvidia card and installed the driver automatically. (That or I selected that I wanted Nvidia drivers during the install, I can’t remember which.) Switched the cable over to the card, no issues since.
Everyone complains about Nvidia support on Linux but it’s come a long long way the last few years and it’s honestly just as easy or easier than windows now.
Anything break along the way?

Interesting, quick solve too.
This has convinced me to try it out. Pretty impressive. Now i’ll try CatchyOS to replace windows.
Bazzite has been awesome while I only wanted to game.

Troubleshooting with an audience is never fun haha.
My only disadvantage seems to be my nvidia 4070 super…. But i haven’t seen a big issue with it in Bazzite. All im seeing and hearing are wins

Oh, my gaming PC has an Nvidia 1080. I have had zero issues.
