Oh yeah? That doesn't sound like a super big deal
Oh 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
CYes, for example, the Legion just got an update that allows for dynamic vram use, the ally also have fixes for the gyro and a butt ton of stuff
CSame thing actually
CPretty clever from them to use the same system, plop the blob in an USB, go to bios, EZFlash or however they call it, update and done
ADoesn't need bios updates all work fine. But we get new features
CSome people that received RMAd devices are still having the issue
CCorrect
AGot it do it's a your mileage may vary thing
CBasically yeah
AOverheating is one of the new features I think
ALol the best feature. Reduced functionality
ATodd Howard would be proud
AThey added an overheat mode to avoid overheating
ABut it has broken fan curves
