ValerieOP•7/2/24, 12:36 AM

They are also just expensive

ValerieOP•7/2/24, 12:36 AM

Like, in general

ValerieOP•7/2/24, 12:36 AM

They're built to last

terrestrialAdversary•7/2/24, 12:36 AM

VValerie They are also just expensive

Len•7/2/24, 12:37 AM

ValerieOP•7/2/24, 12:38 AM

VValerie Difference is my laptop sleeps properly 😉

ValerieOP•7/2/24, 12:38 AM

Len•7/2/24, 12:39 AM

ValerieOP•7/2/24, 12:39 AM

I was already on Linux at that point, it was just about a year ago

ValerieOP•7/2/24, 12:39 AM

Has bazzite on it right now actually

beefchimi•7/2/24, 12:40 AM

So now with Nvidia 555, is HDR ready for steam games or is there some reason why its “still not ready?”

VValerie Can someone confirm if LUKS is usable on Deck?

VagrantWinds•7/2/24, 12:40 AM

Not sure if anyone answered this question yet, but yes. You'll need to either enable TPM unlock (there's a ujust command), enroll a Yubikey (or any other FIDO2 key) to unlock the partition instead of a password, or always have a usb keyboard around to unlock it on boot.

I switched to Linux when the first 11 build dropped in Windows insider LMFAO

@Kyle Gospo after further testing, on the 06/30 image, if I connect via USB-C directly to a monitor, the display out works properly. Using any USB-C to HDMI dongle or dock, it does not.

ValerieOP•7/2/24, 12:41 AM

Shit sucked

ValerieOP•7/2/24, 12:41 AM

11 has gotten better but still bad

VValerie I switched to Linux when the first 11 build dropped in Windows insider LMFAO

Len•7/2/24, 12:42 AM

that is the worst thing

Len•7/2/24, 12:42 AM

like they should make this popup illegal

VValerie So, not really

VagrantWinds•7/2/24, 12:42 AM

i use a yubikey myself. but yeah, there's no ability to have an on-screen keyboard for the password unlock for luks. they tried a project in the past, but it didn't pan out.
