Hi all. I recently came to Bazzite after being a Windows snob for, well, ever. The single player games I play and Hell Let Loose work great, but I am struggling to get my racing sims to work. All the games are through Steam, howver I think it is likely to be the non-native support for Simhub, Moza and SimLabs Race Director software. Are there any sim racing Bazzite users here that could offer some advice? I have tried a few online guides via YouTube, but I’m coming up short. Any advice would be appreciated.

    Being immutable means you have fewer options for building out specialized hardware support.

    With Distrobox you can install any Linux software you could on any other distro. Immutable isn’t the hurdle people make it out to be. It’s just different than what people have been used to for so long.

      It depends what kind of software exactly. If you need a kernel module driver then you’ll have to make a custom image. It’s pretty easy if you just follow the steps in the docs and use the custom image template, but it’s probably not something a complete beginner would want to do.

      I have to do this in order to load the sensors driver for my motherboard sensors, for example. Any software that requires changes to the base image would have to follow this process.
