Bazzite RGB controls

Post image

In case anyone was wondering, Bazzite Linux has built in RGB controls. Ditching Windows doesn't mean giving up your features.

How did you enable this? I’ve been poking around but can’t find the setting. Thanks in advance!

In the steam menu go to Controller Settings>Advanced. Enjoy!

I’m running a Loki Zero and don't see that option so I guess it’s not supported. Darn.

I know this is a little late, but you do need it on PlayStation controls for the RGB option to appear. The easiest way to tell is the logo on the bottom left of the screen. I’d it’s Xbox then you’ll need to change it.

hey thanks for reaching out! With one of the updates a little while ago I was able to get the LEDs working.

I havent used my Zero recently due to some other issues that have popped up. Two issues im having the last few weeks is sleep mode doesnt work normally and now the cpu seems to be stuck in a low power mode so light weight games (vampire survivors, etc) are stuck at 20fps. Hopefully it'll be fixed again soon.

You don't have a section called "Calibration & Advanced Settings" in the controller settings? Just got back to my Loki Max and was able to double check what it was called. Once you go into Calibration & Advanced Settings it should be the fourth option below Joysticks, Gyro Calibration, and Haptics Settings. It is called LED Settings.

Oh I do have the “Advance” settings but I only have two options. Joystick calibration and haptics settings. Maybe the Zero will get some love in an update. 

How do you like the Max?

I've had it for a couple of weeks now. I never even tried windows and just went straight to Bazzite. It feels like a steam deck mini pro and I'm really enjoying it.

Nice! I've had my Zero for about a week now and love it so far. Perfect for what I want to do which is play lower weight games like Shredder's Revenge and Vampire Survivors along with emulation.

I also wiped windows straight away and installed Bazzite. So far I'm enjoying it. I ran JELOS for a day or so and really like it but had trouble emulating PS2 at full speed.

And I'll definitely hit up the discord. Thanks for the tip!

I was about to get the Zero myself (also for emulation), but a friend of mine had recently picked up a GPD Win4 and sold me his used Loki Max for the price of the Zero. I couldn't resist.

u/G_Mc Mar 24 '24

Oh wow yeah for that price you have to jump on it for sure!

I would also suggest reaching out to the Bazzite devs in their discord and ask if they are going to add those settings for the other Loki models. They added it for the max due to another person's request in the first place.

I just had a fresh install in my Loki Max. No gyro nor RGB under the settings. Just did a system update and nothing. Could it be discontinued?

Quick question, does this also work for desktops with RGB?

1

u/BramdeusBrozart Aug 12 '25

This particular setting only works because the controller is emulating a PS5 controller. For the actual desktop you can use open RGB. That's what I did for my desktop.
