So I think I might be staying with X11 instead of Wayland, it will probably depend on how many bugs I will encounter but do anyone here have any solutions to the tiny taskbar in X11

you're basically the trailblazer here for the LGO, I don't know anyone using X11 desktop on the LGO

ZombrexoOP•3/6/24, 5:09 PM

Oof

ZombrexoOP•3/6/24, 5:14 PM

Sooo first thing I did was play with scaling, didn't think it work until I saw a microscopic message that said it will only work every 6,25% and will only take affect after a restart.

So I got scaling working and it is flawless other than a tiny taskbar.

Then I learned that suspend-resume is a bit more unstable on X11 than on Wayland but it does work about 70% of the time compared to Wayland's 80% of the time.

Will report any more bugs I encounter, steam link worked after I changed video codec.

Hey, I'm having trouble updating. It's just stuck on
"Attaching to existing transaction: upgrade"

Kyle Gospo•3/6/24, 5:42 PM

Means it's already upgrading in the background

Kyle Gospo•3/6/24, 5:42 PM

Let it finish and it'll show you the logs

Fayne 🌈🐱•3/6/24, 5:43 PM

As in it's already downloaded?

Kyle Gospo•3/6/24, 5:43 PM

Actively downloading & applying

Kyle Gospo•3/6/24, 5:43 PM

At the time you ran update

Fayne 🌈🐱•3/6/24, 5:44 PM

Oh. System Monitor doesn't show anything downloading except Steam, but when I checked my Wi-Fi, I see the Steam Deck downloading 30 Mbps

Fayne 🌈🐱•3/6/24, 5:45 PM

Also, can I change the hostname from fedora to steamdeck?

Fayne 🌈🐱•3/6/24, 5:46 PM

Would I just hostname steamdeckhostname steamdeck or should I do something else as well?

Kyle Gospo•3/6/24, 5:47 PM

Yep, can just change it in the settings

Fayne 🌈🐱•3/6/24, 5:47 PM

i couldn't find it in the settings

Kyle Gospo•3/6/24, 5:49 PM

KDE or GNOME?

Fayne 🌈🐱•3/6/24, 5:49 PM

KDE

Fayne 🌈🐱•3/6/24, 5:49 PM

i just used the hostnamehostname command

Kyle Gospo•3/6/24, 5:50 PM

Yeah that'll work

ZombrexoOP•3/6/24, 5:57 PM

I am curious, for the legion go setup as guided by aru, once you have handheld daemon you're recommended to emulate the dual sense edge controller for the most compatibility and I get that but is there no one who has the standard steam deck controls in there to emulate, I would think that the steam deck controllers themselves offer the most compatibility with the LGO other than one missing touchpad.

Hamzty•3/6/24, 6:00 PM

Best way to use moonlight client?

Hamzty•3/6/24, 6:00 PM

Just install under desktop and add to steam lib?

HikariKnight•3/6/24, 6:04 PM

the steam deck controlls are handled directly by steam input, there is probably a way to emulate it but it is not documented at all unlike emulating other controllers (i have no idea of the process involved so this is just pure guesswork on my side)

HHamzty Just install under desktop and add to steam lib?

HikariKnight•3/6/24, 6:04 PM

yep

Hamzty•3/6/24, 6:05 PM

Thx

Aru•3/6/24, 6:05 PM

there were previous attempts at emulating the steam deck controller, they failed

Aru•3/6/24, 6:06 PM

so it's not that it was never tried, but nobody has gotten one to work yet

Krepta•3/6/24, 6:06 PM

That's interesting. I wonder if it will change when steam os for non steam decks releases.

Aru•3/6/24, 6:07 PM

the dualsense edge was just the next best option

Aru•3/6/24, 6:07 PM

since it has 4 extra remappable "back" buttons, gyro, and trackpad support

Krepta•3/6/24, 6:08 PM

If you apply the css profiles from legion go tricks website, it's pretty seamless

Krepta•3/6/24, 6:08 PM

You can get everything looking like the legion go

Aru•3/6/24, 6:08 PM

except if you play any games that use ps glyphs in-game, or dualsense-specific features

Krepta•3/6/24, 6:08 PM

Ooh yeah that makes sense

ZombrexoOP•3/6/24, 6:08 PM

This is insanely interesting, I love tinkering but hate coding but you guys are slowly igniting an old spark inside me where I once loved coding, Linux makes coding literally fun.

So basically one day we will be able to emulate the steam deck controls but not today.

Thanks for letting me know.

Aru•3/6/24, 6:08 PM

e.g. in tales of arise and spiderman remastered, dualsense touchpad click are mapped to the menu. so on certain devices, you need to use xbox controller emulation

ZZombrexo This is insanely interesting, I love tinkering but hate coding but you guys are ...

Aru•3/6/24, 6:09 PM

not sure if it'll happen "one day", but perhaps someone will figure it out

ZombrexoOP•3/6/24, 6:10 PM

Never say never my dude

Aru•3/6/24, 6:10 PM

i didn't say never

Aru•3/6/24, 6:10 PM

just said someday someone might figure it out

ZombrexoOP•3/6/24, 6:10 PM

I tried being cool internet dude but yeah you're right

Aru•3/6/24, 6:11 PM

someone on reddit did claim they got steam deck controller emulation working

Aru•3/6/24, 6:11 PM

but never published it anywhere

Aru•3/6/24, 6:11 PM

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

ZombrexoOP•3/6/24, 6:11 PM

Soo bullshitting

ZombrexoOP•3/6/24, 6:13 PM

People on Reddit are crazy, that includes me

ZombrexoOP•3/6/24, 6:13 PM

Need that karma

ZombrexoOP•3/6/24, 6:13 PM

It's literally heroin

ZombrexoOP•3/6/24, 6:17 PM

Do you think if any of us got the steam controller that we could reverse engineer the controllers code in order for steam to recognize a steam deck controller.

AAru e.g. in tales of arise and spiderman remastered, dualsense touchpad click are ma...

antheas•3/6/24, 6:17 PM

Or steam input or the paddles to touchpad option

antheas•3/6/24, 6:18 PM

Which works great

So I think I might be staying with X11 instead of Wayland, it will probably depend on how many bugs
