Hello - bumping this question. I'm on

-deck-gnome

-deck-gnome

and wondering if it's possible to boot into "Gaming Mode" without a password but require auth to get into desktop mode where e.g. all my accounts are signed in. Specifically I'm curious:
(a) How is it bypassing auth to sign in as my user when "Automatic Login" is disabled and
(b) Does that mechanism make it futile to create another user with apps/accounts installed locally. (I'm picturing "Return to Desktop" button signing into essentially a guest user from which I would auth into my real user if I want to do Linux-y stuff instead of game-y stuff.)

I vaguely recall reading that locking the screen was disabled on the Deck because some Gnome component was missing but maybe I'm hallucinating that.

Deck images use SDDM and Valve's session model

Kyle Gospo•4/16/24, 3:24 AM

Even for GNOME

Kyle Gospo•4/16/24, 3:25 AM

unfortunately that would require a custom image or patches for ours

only possible on KDE, not Gnome

FennecTECH•4/16/24, 3:26 AM

Guys. We need to convince Linus to try blazzite on the ALLY in his video

Aru•4/16/24, 3:26 AM

it's what I do on my laptop

AAru only possible on KDE, not Gnome

Without hacking together a custom image, or at all?

most of his content is kinda joke content, and imo serious linux content should be done by Emily with Linus staying away

Aru•4/16/24, 3:29 AM

so KDE allows for configuring the lock screen, even with auto-login enabled

Aru•4/16/24, 3:29 AM

so I added a steam pin code for the desktop mode switch

But what it does do is bring lots of eyes. Including potential contributors

FennecTECH•4/16/24, 3:30 AM

And being that bazzite fixes the biggest problems with the ally (windows being ass on handhelds) it will be huge

pintocat•4/16/24, 3:30 AM

most of his linux stuff comes across as "well it looked promising, but it's too complicated and it's broken"

FennecTECH•4/16/24, 3:31 AM

I think he would have a very different experences with bazzite on the ally

FennecTECH•4/16/24, 3:32 AM

Being that its actually targeted to the hardware and will have significantly less trouble than installing a more conventional Linux distribution

FennecTECH•4/16/24, 3:33 AM

And being that gaming on Linux is actually really good now. I think he will have positive experences with it

FennecTECH•4/16/24, 3:33 AM

We owe valve ALOT for that one

FennecTECH•4/16/24, 3:35 AM

They dragged Linux kicking and screaming into the gaming world and did it in the best way possible (by open sourcing proton)

legally defined as sound•4/16/24, 3:35 AM

honestly. i'm playing a game running on proton (90% sure at least) and i think it performs better on linux lol

FennecTECH•4/16/24, 3:35 AM

I dont even have windows on my ally. I haven’t for almost 6 months.

legally defined as sound•4/16/24, 3:36 AM

i have windows on my lgo but i' mprolly gonna delete it over the summer

legally defined as sound•4/16/24, 3:36 AM

i need windows to use lockdown browser for one class so i'm using my handheld gaming consol ein class tmrw

FennecTECH•4/16/24, 3:36 AM

lol

FennecTECH•4/16/24, 3:36 AM

Put that crap in a VM

legally defined as sound•4/16/24, 3:37 AM

the app we use detects if it's in a vm :/

FennecTECH•4/16/24, 3:38 AM

Fair enough

legally defined as sound•4/16/24, 3:39 AM

yeah it's stupid because i'm in cs and a lot of the work we do is based around linux, yet we need windows apps in order to do it?

FennecTECH•4/16/24, 3:39 AM

I had a setup where i could dual boot. But i could also boot the non booted OS in a VM at one point. It was pretty slick

FennecTECH•4/16/24, 3:41 AM

So. I could shut down the windows VM. Shut down Linux. And then boot the virtualized OS on baremetal

FennecTECH•4/16/24, 3:42 AM

And then fire up the Linux partition in a VM on windows

Kyle Gospo•4/16/24, 4:38 AM

it's preinstalled

Kyle Gospo•4/16/24, 4:38 AM

I'd look at what their installer does and undo it bit by bit

Kyle Gospo•4/16/24, 4:38 AM

the version we install and default-enable is part of the image, so you can't break it by removing what their installer did

r0ck3r•4/16/24, 4:54 AM

huh weird, I wasnt able to recieve any data on the default 26760 port

r0ck3r•4/16/24, 4:54 AM

is the port different for cemuhook?

tryhardsoccermomswag•4/16/24, 4:55 AM

what hardware is this

r0ck3r•4/16/24, 4:55 AM

gpd win mini
