Bazzite 41 launches with VRR fixes and better handheld support

The Linux-based Gaming OS brings better compatibility with many AYANEO handhelds.

From Universal Blue:

In this release, we debut our new kernel, kernel-bazzite, built directly on top of Fedora’s kernel-ark and 6.11 with a bunch of new handheld patches for Ayaneo, OneXPlayer, Ayn, basic controller support for the MSI Claw, new automatically generated changelogs to keep you in the know, Gamescope goodies for all devices, and GNOME 47 with accent colors and greater touch support.

Great update for the Linux-based operating system. It adds better compatibility for many AYANEO handhelds, including the AYANEO 2s and the Flip KB.

If you haven't heard of Bazzite before: Bazzite OS is a Linux-based operating system designed for gaming on (handheld) PCs. It brings SteamOS-like features to devices like the ASUS ROG Ally, MSI Claw, and more. (Both these devices received better compatibility with this update.)


I use Bazzite for my living room PCs, transforming my TV into a 65" Steam Deck. I'm currently planning to add a full-sized SSD to my ROG Ally, and dual-booting Bazzite and Windows. If you subscribe to the newsletter, you'll get updated when that guide goes live.
