Bluefin Gaming Mode and Dakota Alpha 5 | Bluefin

Guardians ... a new Dakota arrives, likely our last before beta. @ahmedadan brings us an example of the power we can wield with BuildStream and The Final Shape. (Ask him about his COSMIC image!)

Hi @ahmedadan, I didn't find the Cosmic image jorge is talking about on your profile. Is it possible to have a look ?

Hi @trya2l,

My current daily-driver image is Razorfin, which can be seen here. My new BuildStream Cosmic image is still a work in progress but can be seen here; the base image itself is fine. We're just adding the creature comforts and hoping to have a working pipeline soon so that we can start our alpha.

Nice, btw is there any specific challenges when doing Buildstream with COSMIC or is it the same as in Dakota ?

[ahmedadan]

The only real issue is sometimes COSMIC bumps the MSRV (Minimum Supported Rust Version) to something that's not in FDSDK and you either wait for that or pull in Rust from it's source. I usually just wait for FDSDK to bump the Rust version before I merge the PR that came from COSMIC upstream.

trying it out and there seems to be an issue with enabling developer mode. is that currently working on the gaming image?

That's why it's a testing branch, do ujust report and follow the instructions, thanks!
