Wish me luck. I’m a little unsure if it’ll work well. I have an ancient GPU (Nvidia GTX 970) and hope it’ll be compatable.
Processor AMD Ryzen 5 1600 Six-Core (12 CPUs) Processor 3.20 GHz
Installed RAM 32.0 GB
Graphics Card NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970 (4 GB) (actually 3.5GB due to hardware defect)
BaseBoard Manufacturer ASRock
BaseBoard Product AB350 Pro4
This system is getting old; nearly a decade here. Pretty soon I have to start thinking about upgrading. At a minimum, I should try and upgrade the video card when I can.
Does it work on another OS? Are you using displayport or something else? You probably want to use the proprietary driver which should come with Bazzite. You can also see if x11/Wayland makes a difference if Bazzite KDE supports it. I think the GNOME version is Wayland only.
This is the one thing I might not be able to help you with because I don’t use Nvidia anymore. And I don’t have an ultrawide lol. Screen height is more important for what I do.
It works on win10. Funny I have a lenovo t490, running bazzite and I have their lenovo dock 2 and I can dock the laptop and it connects to both monitors and its internal display. The difference is the laptop is running Gnome instead of KDE.
Wouldn’t the other main difference be your t490 isn’t running nvidia?
Well, yes, that’s a pretty huge difference. It’s fine, I’m ditching these cards after chatting with people here and upgrading to the current low end AMD card.
Try running journalctl -b --grep “wayland” and see if anything interesting comes up… Doubt I can help you actually solve this though. It could also be a KDE bug with Nvidia.
