even if there's a few issues I'd rather that than all the straight up hardware problems the go seems

ABut you really need your kernel patches for the ally
AThe go has no kernel patches rn
Athe bazzite ally build has them already right?
AOr does it still require more manual install afterwards
Athat's fine, just wondering
AShould have them by the time you buy it
AIt'd be another month or so
Aprobably
ATax refund season
Amaybe two
AI'm hoping by that time the wifi driver issue on deck OLED is fixed too. My dock doesn't have an ethernet port so I'm unable to install currently
CI believe the issue is that when you go back from sleep, the controls don't work, at least not correctly, correct me if I'm wrong, but I think you just have to touch the screen or something and it will come back alive
AOh yeah? That doesn't sound like a super big deal
AI've been running desktop Linux for three years now I'm used to little quirks here and there
AEvery device I've put Linux on has had unique challenges but it's always been fun to learn how to mitigate issues
AYeah it's a simple kernel patch to fix too that is part of Linux 6.7
AWell ok then. Ally it is
AThanks guys!
CSomething that makes me sad, is that the gyro is not in the controller but instead is in the device
AOh wait one more thing
AGo is super nice too
AShould I do a bios update on the windows side
ABefore switching to bazzite?
ALike is that recommended
Cso with the Go I cannot play, at least not comfortably, wii games like mario galaxy
AWell.... Go has one on the device and guess what... Lenovo doesn't give access to it
CI bought a dualsense just for that and is amazing, not having to deal with the weird bluetooth connection is a blessing
ABoth controllers have one
CI believe they do now isn't?
AAlso the one on the device is meh
AAmd decided to be smart and use a coprocessor to access it
CHuh? really? I read the gyro was only in the main device
AYeah they do. But Lenovo implementation is crappy and they don't give access to it
AThere were some mentions in an early dll prerelease legion space header file
ABut current dll doesn't have a gyro function
COh damn
CMaaaan, like, shit's tough
CI need to make my decision on may, and both options, the Ally and the Legion Go, have a lot of pros and cons
CThe ally still have killing SD card issues, but the 90 degrees SSD mod is cheaper and easier
CThe Legion Go can overheat and needs constant BIOS updates
CBut now that I think about it, so does the Ally
ADoes it still? I've heard that recent hardware has that fixed
ACan you even do bios updates if you aren't running windows
Cbuuuuut you can install bios updates on the Ally without windows
CNot so with the legion
AOh ok
AHow? Just from a USB drive?
AThat's how I did my bios update on my motherboard
AAnd tbf it is an Asus motherboard
ASo I have some familiarity with the process
