Hey so I saw the new update is there for Ally.. I checked and mine is already on -deck as I have only installed the OS within the last week. So now I just run the update function within Steam system update menu? Or I need to do something in desktop mode?

FFernando Alonso God, I'm tired of this, things don't work, games crash or have terrible bugs, ap...

but i don't want to go back to windows

Aantheas Uh new bug then

Lauraposs the Fluffy•7/18/24, 1:30 PM

seems so, it now boots straight into steam gaming mode when i restart so things seem good

SkibidiPayload•7/18/24, 1:31 PM

I am an active Bazzite user on my laptop, do you recommend Bazzite for steam deck too? Also does the controller (joysticks and buttons) work the same way like on Steam OS when using the desktop mode?

FFernando Alonso how do i fix this black screen?

Petete•7/18/24, 1:33 PM

Are you on Nvidia? Try disabling GPU acceleration on the settings.

right now it seems the install is borked so i don't recommend it at this moment, this is my first time trying the os at all sooooo i can give you a review later on

SkibidiPayload•7/18/24, 1:34 PM

i had problems with the instal on my laptop too, so what i did was install Fedora Kionite and rebased the thing

Lauraposs the Fluffy•7/18/24, 1:35 PM

aah, fair. I just went into rescue to try and see if i can get it to boot into kde, but upon rebooting (and forgetting to go back into rescue) it kinda just ended up working with an external monitor plugged in.
And.. as with any os install on a steam deck, a dock you can plug a usb and a keyboard in at the same time is pretty much mandatory

FFernando Alonso Click to see attachment

Petete•7/18/24, 1:38 PM

I'd try it anyway. Disable GPU acceleration and restart steam.

Fernando Alonso•7/18/24, 1:41 PM

SkibidiPayload•7/18/24, 1:51 PM

yeah, i have something like a dock, it has one usb C, normal usb and hdmi

SkibidiPayload•7/18/24, 1:51 PM

and i also have a classic usb hub

SkibidiPayload•7/18/24, 1:51 PM

so it should be okay

SkibidiPayload•7/18/24, 1:52 PM

and if it wont work, i can steal the origianl dock from valve from my sister

there's going to be a new steam deck when valve announce it, until then it's just pointless rumours
you'll probably have to wait till valve upstream their stuff to the mainline kernel

Roon | Café Closed 12/8~12/16•7/18/24, 2:04 PM

So Steam Deck OLED had the same thing when it got first released right?

halva•7/18/24, 2:04 PM

frankly i dont remember

halva•7/18/24, 2:05 PM

but the original steam deck launcher was... wacky

Roon | Café Closed 12/8~12/16•7/18/24, 2:05 PM

Like Valve not having upstream their stuff to mainline kernel, causing OLED model not being supported prior to Bazzite 3.5

Aru•7/18/24, 2:06 PM

i've always thought the Deck is a bad Linux machine, but a good SteamOS machine

Aru•7/18/24, 2:07 PM

trying to install generic distros have always had some sort of gotcha or quirk on the Deck, SteamOS was the only distro that actually worked for a very long time

Roon | Café Closed 12/8~12/16•7/18/24, 2:07 PM

That's true, hope they improve linux kernel upstream support when new models comes out

Aru•7/18/24, 2:07 PM

the Legion Go is a better Linux machine, it basically worked off a vanilla fedora kernel from day 1 lol

Roon | Café Closed 12/8~12/16•7/18/24, 2:07 PM

Tho it does not have FreeDOS/No OS variant and only have Windows version

Aru•7/18/24, 2:08 PM

yeah, if the LGO had a discounted version with no Windows, that would've been great

Aru•7/18/24, 2:08 PM

But yeah, even now, regular distros struggle to 100% work on the Deck

thats with most devices

installing linux on my laptop?
gotta make sure there are drivers for my wifi, audio, gpu, etc.

JJan thats with most devices

Aru•7/18/24, 2:11 PM

yes, but usually "most devices" ship with Windows, so no surprises there. But it not working well on a supposed Linux-only device is a bit more annoying

Aru•7/18/24, 2:12 PM

that being said, I don't necessarily think it's a problem or anything.

Aru•7/18/24, 2:12 PM

I think the Deck is an awesome device, it's really helped linux gaming

Aru•7/18/24, 2:13 PM

...it's just objectively had issues with running generic distros

Both are wired into the same updater, no difference between updating through either one

Hey some feedback - if I change audio to the Family option which seems to be the fixed one, every shutdown or restart changes it back to Rog Ally option. It won’t hold that setting for some reason.

What's your issue with the ROG Alyl output?

KKyle Gospo What's your issue with the ROG Alyl output?

uKuSaUaEsAOP•7/18/24, 2:32 PM

Audio seems distorted at high volumes.. system sounds for example seem to reverberate the shell.

uKuSaUaEsAOP•7/18/24, 2:33 PM

Family option is more tinny for sure, but that reduced bass is what’s stopping it from reverberating. If Rog Ally option has the bass toned down just a little it would probably be ideal.

Ellis•7/18/24, 2:37 PM

All of these TWENTY controllers are connected to my Bazzite HTPC and Steam cant handle it as you can see. Beyond 16 controllers it starts struggling

Ellis•7/18/24, 2:38 PM

uKuSaUaEsAOP•7/18/24, 2:38 PM

Best example is bringing up side menu and then exiting from it.. that sound creates a lot of distortion at higher volumes.

Aru•7/18/24, 2:39 PM

could you turn down the volume of the regular family option? the max volume of that option affects the sound of the ROG Ally option

Three usb hubs. 17 controllers are using usb either dongled or wired. Three are Bluetooth
