It is never okay to install an operating system to an SD card
It is never okay to install an operating system to an SD card
KThere is no scenario where it's okay
KDo not do it
Mmaybe batocera and that’s hardly an OS
Traspberry pi be like
KLittle different, that operating system is designed for it
KMost everything is tmpfs
KAnd even then it's slow and shitty
Twhat's that
Ttemp file system?
Tor did u accidentally sneeze
KYep, in RAM
Tah
TI got a couple pi zero 2
Tinstall bazzite on them
Timo if you dont want to upgrade the internal drive of the deck, disable preloaded shadercache and be very particular on what gets installed to the internal drive
T
Tive been fine with this method personally
Tit's just a budgeting issue so I'll try that
TI think the almost 500gb is windows
TI did this a while ago and only learned windows shreds SD cards later
Tu remember where the option is?
TI can't find it
KOnly the Steam Deck images have the "special" gamescope session (A.K.A: Gaming Mode) right?
KCorrect
K-deck and -ally
KNo Nvidia images, no desktop images
KWhen Nvidia has their shit together I'll add the session to desktop images as an optional session during login
Da buddy of mine is having issues with Nvidia drivers, is there an easy way to roll it back to a previous version without messing with the rpm-ostree layering
KRollbacks won't touch your layers
KFeel free to roll back to any date you like
KWe've been on the current stable release for quite some time however, would have to be a very old image
KWhat issues are they having?
Djust the nvidia driver not the whole os build, hes having flickering isseus in steam and discord
KTell him to use X11
Dwhile using wayland, he switched to x11 and some of the isses seemed to be gone
KThere is no stable Nvidia driver that supports Wayland, that's completely expected
Dx11 scaling is awful though
KThey are going to have to wait for the next driver release
KMight be a few weeks
KAt that point Wayland will function
Dsounds good thanks ill let him know
Tdesktop mode steam settings
Tah okay that's why I couldn't find it
Kis this hardware-cetric? there is a folk from another sever trying to install this on Nobara, but on his destop, he does't have any Deck-like handheld and wanted to try out this neat feature, he understands that using Steam Big Picture mode is not the same thing haha
KCoincidentally steam big picture is hugely fucked on Nvidia
KIt's a driver problem, there's nothing that can be done to fix it by us
KIf they want to try it I would recommend they buy an AMD GPU or a modern Intel one
Kthanks for the info, gonna pass on to him
Mthe funniest part is that the only way big picture mode isn’t broken on nvidia 555 is if you use the steam deck client
MOtherwise it’s fully broken instead of like… 50% broken
