Bazzite’s stable images moved to 45.20261105 on November 5 (GitHub release timestamp 2026-11-05T23:49:28Z, about 5:49 PM CST). The automatically generated changelog lists changes since 45.20261104.

Notable commits

From the release notes:

  • Steam Machine (Fremont) added to the Valve hardware detection script and titanoboa_hook_postrootfs.sh (#6258).
  • Improved anticheat handling of Valve hardware (#6257).
  • Nvidia GPU passthrough for the CoolerControl container (two related commits).
  • Atlas 8 sync with upstream PR (#6229).

  • Other fixes include OpenRazer layering, Portuguese (pt_BR) Steam first-run messaging, ujust/uupd updates, and a MOK-deletion caution.

Major package versions (unchanged vs prior stable line)

Per the release table:

  • Kernel: 7.2.15-ogc1.1 (Nvidia LTS kernel 6.18.60-ogc1.1)
  • Mesa: 26.2.6-2
  • Gamescope: 3.17.0^1-1
  • Nvidia Open: 615.78.08-1 / Nvidia LTS: 580.196.07-1
  • GNOME: 51.1-1 / KDE: 6.8.2-1
  • InputPlumber: 0.83.1-4 / PowerStation: 0.9.0-1

How to rebase

Current users can run bazzite-rollback-helper rebase stable for the latest stable, or bazzite-rollback-helper rebase 45.20261105 for this image specifically.

This build is an incremental stable refresh on the Fedora 45 line, not a new major Bazzite version.

Opinion: Fremont detection and anticheat handling are the headlines for Steam Machine / Deck users; CoolerControl Nvidia passthrough is the practical win if you fan-curve an Nvidia Bazzite box.
