I’m assuming you meant an integrated AMD GPU and discrete Nvidia GPU? I’ve always seen “discrete” and “dedicated” used interchangeably regarding GPUs.
I have a laptop with a similar configuration - could not get it to work on Bazzite for gaming at all and I ended up ditching Bazzite for Garuda since I was already using that on my desktop and it worked fine. Now you’ve got me wondering if Bazzite was running X11 and that was the culprit all along… I feel like early on Bazzite was defaulting to X11 for Nvidia GPUs (and with the common knowledge at the time that made sense as nvidia and wayland have not always played nice together).
yeah sorry meant integrated. All I know is on x11 whenever I played a game it would start fight, if I stayed in the game it was fine for a bit but if I navigated away from the game either hitting alt+tab or switching workspaces, etc and tried going back to the game it would either just show a black screen or simply show the desktop but you could still hear the game running. Only on x11.
Oh, that is different than the problems I had, I couldn’t get the damn thing to use the dGPU at all… So I could play really simple games that the iGPU could run but that was it.
