Have all new stuff all AMD. Running bazzite and the gpu ( 9070 xt ) does not work, when I plug in the monitor to either port type it just compresses everything up at the top of the screen all warped. Everything works fine on the MB ports not sure what I might have done to screw it up. Saw some posts talking about proper versions for the kernel and mesa and both those seemed to be new enough for the GPU ( 6.14.4-104.bazzite.fc42.x86_64 (64-bit) ) and Mesa 25.0.1
Those errors seemed to be in games from their posts though my monitor will not even display the desktop or anything else properly what am I missing?

I was waiting for the card to come down in price and I put my old 3060 TI into this new system at first. How do I check if the drivers updated to new ones or if I have to do it manually? Maybe that is what is wrong

Did you install the Nvidia version of Bazzite? And if so, did you rebase to the non-Nvidia version?
Either way it might be worth a clean install.
What is rebase?
Rebase is essentially switching the versions of Bazzite you have installed without a complete reinstall
Try
rpm-ostree rebase ostree-unverified-registry:ghcr.io/ublue-os/bazzite-gnome:stableOr whatever your preferred configuration is.
Yeah that did not seem to work using the rebase command I copied from Bazzites website for the version I need it gave me an error part way through

Looks like I will probably just have to do a reinstall with the proper one
Yeah that’s probably best
Note that they give you a different ISO when you choose AMD vs Nvidia on the bazzite website. So when you do the reinstall, make sure to grab the ISO for AMD.
Test with a fedora 42 live usb to verify it isn’t bazzite I’d say
What is that, using a different operating system to try to boot? Is this just to check if the hardware itself is bad?
Basically, linux can be used before installing and its called a live disk. Make a boot drive with etcher and boot into it. Been using Nebora project (fedora 42) and its been great so far
It’s someone shilling their own personal OS preference.
Sorry you have to be caught up in all this. Good luck.
Does the boot screen look ok? Does the login screen look ok?
I had a problem with my new 9070 on debian KDE, and the issue was with color accuracy setting
Yeah boot and password screen look fine. I tried changing from accurate color to efficient color but that did not do anything for me. Now I am getting a message every 10 minutes or so pop up saying “UUPD Some system updates failed” but no specifics. I really appreciate everyone trying to help but it is looking more and more like a reinstall is going to be needed.

I will double check this one. I had gone in on initial setup and not noticed updates needed but I will check again, good looking out.

I went back and double checked, I did get the AMD one but I got the one marked for old cards not the 9k series
Duuuude I was trying to replace my 3060 ti as well, but all 9070s in my region sold out in 2 minutes (I’m not kidding). Now it’s still 80€ more expensive than launch (which is another 80€ more expensive than the US launch; wtf). I am at wits end…
Me too, I finally saw it only $100 above MSRP and I caved since I was worried it would actually end up going up more due to uncertain tariff situation here.
Is it this issue? - https://github.com/ublue-os/bazzite/issues/2344
Someone fixed a similar issue by setting their display color accuracy to “Prefer Efficency” instead of “Prefer Accuracy”
you can boot ostree:1 change the setting, run sudo ostree admin pin 1 then rebase back to testing (not reboot to ostree:0) that should hopefully work around it
