Why not just turn off TPM in the BIOS?

[–] rocketpoweredredneck@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 week ago (2 children)

My TPM is off, it still bugs me about updating to windows 11. Thats okay I've been dual booting bazzite and really only use windows for a couple of games that I havent figured out how to get running yet

It might have made the check for eligibility before you managed to turn it off. I guess relying on Bazzite is the correct option.

Out of curiosity, what games? I'm not going to throw unsolicited advice at you — I'm just wondering because all of my games have been astoundingly easy to get working on Linux.

The big one that I can't get to work is Star Citizen (I know, I know) but there's a some Steam games like Deep Rock Galactic (might be the fact that its multiplayer) that just immediately crash or only run a few minutes then crash like Avowed (may just be avowed doing avowed things)

I play both Star Citizen and DRG without any issues on Linux (I use Arch btw).

For Star Citizen you need to run the installer through a compatibility layer like Lutris, but then it should install and work fine (though I haven't played in about half a year, so more recent changes may have broken things). For DRG, I just installed through Steam. I don't even think I'm using GE or anything and just running it native.

That makes sense. Although for what it's worth, I don't recall having any problems with Deep Rock Galactic, so whatever issues you had with that may be specific to your particular set up
