You’re right. I tried for a little while and got tired of it. The controller I have is connected via a 2.4ghz dongle, so it’s basically a USB. My PC sees it, but I just can’t add it to the wake list for some reason. It kept failing. It’s not really a big deal. When I want to play game I come walking to the basement, so I’m already on my feet. I can just walk to the PC and wake it up. Lol. We also have a mouse and keyboard by the couch anyway.

No worries. The sharing of the library is done on the library owner’s side. My friend added me as a family member to his account and I had to turn on family sharing on my end, and all of his games just showed up
A guide on the installation? Just a normal distro install if you’ve ever installed one. I chose the HTPC iso to make sure I’m getting the full desktop power alongside the gaming mode and installed. I have several drives and it was so cool to realize that Bazzite set them to mount automatically at boot (one of them is even NTFS), all I did is tick them in the installer alongside the one I installed the system on and the distro like understood that I needed them mounted at boot automatically.
Here their guide in case you need it :)
There is nothing special about setting up the library. It’s just your normal steam. You install the distro and then log into your steam account. That’s it. No virtual network or anything. If you meant something else, please elaborate so I can answer to the best of my abilities

I’ve tried with it for a while, but couldn’t get it to work. I’ll keep messing with it.
It had windows on it and some games kept crashing the whole PC. This is the main reason why we switched it to bazzite. My son was fed up with windows and asked me to install Linux on it. Now he has no issues with all the games he plays. I love seeing my boy enjoying his time.
Brother. Lmao. I was like a child in a playground. Go for it. The process alone was so much fun.
I have put this off for a long time because of my son. He has this one friend who only plays Roblox and he’s a good friend of his, so we kept windows for him on this machine. But he has had so many issues with it where so many other games either crashed his whole PC or just refused to work (because it’s an older machine? I don’t know, it’s windows). Eventually he came to me fed up with it and said “put Linux on this thing right now” 😂. Me being a sucker for Linux, I of course obliged. He’s been having a blast, all of his games work and I’ve also found an app called “Sober” for his Roblox. Win win.
DonutsRMeh@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Google hit with $314m fine for collecting data from idle Android phones without permissionEnglish5·1 天前In theory, yes, but governments won’t do that. They worry that corporations would leave their states and they lose on employment and tax revenue. That’s why they fine them very carefully to begin with.
Thank you, kindly. I’ve heard that manuals where fun to use (sarcasm). Unfortunately, I am old enough to remember those days, but wasn’t fortunate enough to own or even be able to witness such gems in real life.

I’m talking about developers in general before even Linux was a thing. I thought that was obvious in my comment. Guess not, I need to work more on my English.
Nope, not a sell out. Just a person using the tools at hand. You can’t just live in the past. You did it without Google back then because there was no Google and you had to use what you had to use. Now you use Google, because again, you have to use what you have to use. In the end, I personally only care about the outcome.
I just chose to use tools to make my life easier
If you don’t then I’d call you stupid. Keep doing that, friend. That’s the best way actually. You want your life easier so you can put out great work.

It’s really nice and works very well on Linux. I just wish their app worked at least through wine. I couldn’t even make it work in a Windows VM. Hope they bring it over.
