  • So right off the bat I tried rebasing from Fedora Sway Atomic to the Wayblue sway-nvidia image, but I got the error:

    Package 'rpmfusion-nonfree-release-40-1.noarch' is already in the base
    

    I think because I had previously tried installing nvidia drivers from RPM Fusion. So I reset back to the base image with:

    rpm-ostree reset --overlays
    

    After that everything went smoothly and I’m apparently booted with a functional Nvidia driver. Thanks for the help! I’m off to try running some graphics.







  • I just clean installed Sway. The last time I tried a rebase from Kinoite to Bazzite it left me with a weird set of flatpaks and removed Firefox somehow. Probably wasn’t a big deal but it was easy enough to start fresh.

    And yeah Nix store can live in /var. That’s where it ended up when I used the nix-installer provided by Determinate Systems.

    Hmm what you say about the ostree tooling is unfortunate. I was hoping to make my own image at some point. What specifically is overly complex?
