Giving bazzite a test run before deciding to jump ship from windows. Seems great so far but I’m currently hitting a wall. I’m trying to play Liftoff, which requires a drone controller to be plugged in. In order to grant usb privileges (serial port I think), I need to install BETAFPV configurator. That’s a deb package so I set up a mint container in distrobox and installed, changed permissions, and exported it. When trying to launch in command line, it says libnss3.so doesn’t exist. I downloaded a deb for that library and installed it on the mint container as well, but am still getting the same error.

About to try the windows installer with wine but if anyone can tell me why I’m dumb, that would be fantastic.

    I’m not home right now so I can’t test. Why not just install it on a Debian box?

      I went with mint because it’s Debian based and allegedly user friendly. Also I didn’t know which of the 12 Debian options was correct in distrobox 😅

          Gotcha. On the plus side, I was able to install the missing library with apt-get and launch BetaFPV. I added the udev rule as outlined in the manual, but still can’t get the controller recognized in liftoff or BetaFPV. I’ve been giving it an hour or two of effort a day so I’ll take another crack at it tomorrow.
