Is it possible that ROG Ally's SSD is being slower in SteamOS? I can only download stuff from Steam

Is it possible that ROG Ally's SSD is being slower in SteamOS?
I can only download stuff from Steam at 20-30MBs instead of 100MBs

Ccutiebella_pillow Ngl, it does look mad clean

It’s hard to explain that installing this seemed pretty above board. For a distro I could only find on a discord. The guy is some kind of Linux admin and this is his distro he uses for himself and his work

OOptimumSlinky Intel’s efficiency is non-existent at this point. It’s really bad.

Apple begged them to do something about it

Did you apply the steam download speed fix in the portal?

Kyle Gospo•3/19/24, 3:25 PM

It's on the first screen

KKyle Gospo Did you apply the steam download speed fix in the portal?

CharmiOP•3/19/24, 3:26 PM

I disabled that option while installing the whole thing

CCharmi I disabled that option while installing the whole thing

Kyle Gospo•3/19/24, 3:26 PM

And we wonder why it's slow

Kyle Gospo•3/19/24, 3:26 PM

Go back and fix it, see what happens

CharmiOP•3/19/24, 3:26 PM

so it has to be toggled on?

Kyle Gospo•3/19/24, 3:26 PM

Yes

KKyle Gospo Did you apply the steam download speed fix in the portal?

OptimumSlinky•3/19/24, 3:26 PM

Not sure it’s actually working. I applied it to my system and my download speeds are about 50% max via ethernet.

CharmiOP•3/19/24, 3:27 PM

I thought that toggling it off, it removes the limit and toggling it on, it applies the limit

KKyle Gospo Apple begged them to do something about it

fiftydinar•3/19/24, 3:35 PM

I miss the era where 4 cores were the golden standard & anything that had more than it had worse type of cores, hence 4-core Intel best

Kyle Gospo•3/19/24, 3:37 PM

If you have any suggestions on how we might improve the wording on that do let me know and I'll be happy to change it

OptimumSlinky•3/19/24, 3:38 PM

Nope, I may have misspoke

Kyle Gospo•3/19/24, 3:38 PM

And if it improves for you do let me know by how much

Kyle Gospo•3/19/24, 3:38 PM

Same to you @Charmi

OptimumSlinky•3/19/24, 3:39 PM

Currently hitting 890 Mbps, which is about right. So my issue was Comcast being shitty, not Bazzite. Apologies

Kyle Gospo•3/19/24, 3:39 PM

All good, the issue with steam default settings doesn't help the confusion any

Kyle Gospo•3/19/24, 3:39 PM

Glad to hear it's working

KKyle Gospo And if it improves for you do let me know by how much

CharmiOP•3/19/24, 3:39 PM

Will check right now, I'm re-installing the whole thing since I changed to a bigger SSD

CharmiOP•3/19/24, 3:40 PM

Should I install the Deck iso with KDE

OptimumSlinky•3/19/24, 3:40 PM

For clarity, Deck/Game Mode is essentially its own DE right? So it doesn’t matter what the desktop DE is?

CharmiOP•3/19/24, 3:40 PM

Or Ally iso?

Kyle Gospo•3/19/24, 3:41 PM

Yep

CCharmi Or Ally iso?

Kyle Gospo•3/19/24, 3:41 PM

You want ally or ally gnome

Kyle Gospo•3/19/24, 3:41 PM

Your call

Valerie•3/19/24, 3:41 PM

Surface?

CharmiOP•3/19/24, 3:42 PM

I tried Ally KDE

CharmiOP•3/19/24, 3:42 PM

but I heard that It better to install Deck KDE?

VValerie Surface?

Kyle Gospo•3/19/24, 3:43 PM

Yep

RodoMa92•3/19/24, 3:43 PM

Discover-overlay was killing my system

RodoMa92•3/19/24, 3:43 PM

95% ram usage, one entire core pegged

RodoMa92•3/19/24, 3:43 PM

The heck is that?

RRodoMa92 Discover-overlay was killing my system

Kyle Gospo•3/19/24, 3:44 PM

2nd report of this, interesting

Kyle Gospo•3/19/24, 3:44 PM

It's a discord overlay for games

RodoMa92•3/19/24, 3:44 PM

Yeah, saw now

RodoMa92•3/19/24, 3:44 PM

Don't need it, since I'm not using the official app anyway, I guess I'll just disable the service

Kyle Gospo•3/19/24, 3:44 PM

@Trigg

RodoMa92•3/19/24, 3:47 PM

Found the default service.

RodoMa92•3/19/24, 3:47 PM

Just disabled the autospawn for now.

CCharmi but I heard that It better to install Deck KDE?

cutiebella_pillow•3/19/24, 3:47 PM

If you got rog ally, you want the -ally-ally images

cutiebella_pillow•3/19/24, 3:48 PM

and the gnome/kde is your personal prefference

Ccutiebella_pillow If you got rog ally, you want the `-ally` images

CharmiOP•3/19/24, 3:51 PM

Gotcha, I read something in #bazzite-help about installing the deck image instead of ally, that's why I was asking

Kyle Gospo•3/19/24, 3:52 PM

That was for HHD testing

Kyle Gospo•3/19/24, 3:52 PM

Should that become recommended we'll roll that change out to everyone on the ally image

Kyle Gospo•3/19/24, 3:52 PM

No need to worry

CharmiOP•3/19/24, 3:52 PM

Ohh okay, got it

CharmiOP•3/19/24, 3:53 PM

And yesterday when I tried the ally image, I wasn't able to get the onscreen keyboard in desktop mode, is there something that I need to toggle?

Kyle Gospo•3/19/24, 3:53 PM

Go into the steam settings and make sure you have a button bound to open keyboard

Kyle Gospo•3/19/24, 3:53 PM

I recommend x, that's the default

Is it possible that ROG Ally's SSD is being slower in SteamOS? I can only download stuff from Steam
