From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Highlights from R560 Beta Release, 560.28.03
- Updated nvidia-installer to select the NVIDIA open GPU kernel modules by default on systems with GPUs that support both the proprietary and open kernel modules.
It’s my first week on Linux/Bazzite/Fedora How do I get this installed? I need to fix the ridiculous amount of Firefox and Deadlock crashes.
In Bazzite, you should just need to open the Discover package manager and click "Refresh" and then "Update All" in the top right. Although these drivers don't appear to be available through the package manager yet; mine is still on version 560.31.02.
If your Firefox crashes are anything like mine were, it should be solved by opening up Flatseal and disabling Wayland rendering for Firefox. See the screenshot shown here: https://universal-blue.discourse.group/t/nvidia-555-drivers-incoming-important-information/2554
When I first installed Bazzite on my Intel+Nvidia laptop, the Firefox crashes were constant. The workaround here fixed the issue for me.
Thanks. I changed those items in Flatseal and now the Firefox window is a visually garbled mess — very clearly broken like a bad video card. Got any workarounds for the workaround?
Ah, darn. Unfortunately I have no additional help to offer since that particular issue was fixed for me after changing those options in Flatseal.
I'd try running Firefox from the terminal to see what error message you're receiving when the crashes occur; the unique error message was what led me to this workaround when I was originally troubleshooting.
prolly wpuld need to come form your OS matainters ... but i am regarded
