What’s the actual difference to fedora silverblue?
Hi! Co-maintainer here, you can find the differences in the github repo: https://github.com/ublue-os/bluefin
And there's a doc page going over it here: https://universal-blue.discourse.group/docs?topic=41
If you have any other questions I'd be happy to answer them!
I use homebrew on linux, you're not going to get GUI apps that way though, the linux binaries are almost exclusively cli apps and libraries, etc.
Co-maintainer here. That's basically what it is. The value proposition is included hardware enablement on the image (nvidia drivers, controller support, etc). and flathub ootb.
Co-maintainer here, yep, you got it!
Of course you can install gparted, you can run just about anything that you want, it's still Linux.
The OCI features are pretty new (they won't hit Fedora until F40) so there's catching up to do still. They'll get there at some point, there's just a vast amount of existing work out there that they need to account for.
Yeah, look at the examples here: https://github.com/coreos/layering-examples for an ansible example.
Though some modules don't work (the flatpak one doesn't work unfortunately). This is also useful: https://github.com/j1mc/ansible-silverblue
Hope it helps!
Someone just merged some shortcuts to let you turn them on and off easier: https://github.com/ublue-os/config/commit/0823567237f8d83a50a75e9a7cd15c7c9d758d22
Should work fine, bazzite even has a premade one, try it:
distrobox create --nvidia --image ghcr.io/ublue-os/bazzite-arch --name bazzite-arch
Nvidia is just a specific pain point, it's nice to be able to roll back to a specific version of any given deployment.
It's just more obvious for out-of-tree drivers since that's usually a worse user experience.
You can totally use one of the tiling window manager images (sericea is based around sway) -- it wouldn't be a ton of work for that to be added to bazzite, it's just another parameter in the matrix, feel free to hop into github and help out, I'm sure people will want lots of options.
I linked to it, here it is again: https://universal-blue.discourse.group/docs?topic=41#features-9
And the previous link was directly to the source code of the image.
