Ai've always thought the Deck is a bad Linux machine, but a good SteamOS machine
Atrying 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
RThat's true, hope they improve linux kernel upstream support when new models comes out
Athe Legion Go is a better Linux machine, it basically worked off a vanilla fedora kernel from day 1 lol
RTho it does not have FreeDOS/No OS variant and only have Windows version
Ayeah, if the LGO had a discounted version with no Windows, that would've been great
ABut yeah, even now, regular distros struggle to 100% work on the Deck
Jthats with most devices
Jinstalling linux on my laptop?
gotta make sure there are drivers for my wifi, audio, gpu, etc.

Ayes, 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
Athat being said, I don't necessarily think it's a problem or anything.
AI think the Deck is an awesome device, it's really helped linux gaming
A...it's just objectively had issues with running generic distros 
TSafe to upgrade by either method
UThanks!
CBoth are wired into the same updater, no difference between updating through either one

Tgmod native port is a little funny
UHey 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.
KWhat's your issue with the ROG Alyl output?
UAudio seems distorted at high volumes.. system sounds for example seem to reverberate the shell.
UFamily 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.
EAll 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
ESo yeah 16 is the limit
UBest example is bringing up side menu and then exiting from it.. that sound creates a lot of distortion at higher volumes.
Acould you turn down the volume of the regular family option? the max volume of that option affects the sound of the ROG Ally option
Pliterally how
EThe hubs aren’t the limiting factor as I’ve found out
EIt’s literally purely the software that can’t keep up
UI can yeah, but then I don’t get enough volume in games. It seems the balance between OS sounds and game sounds is out of whack.. if the OS sounds could be reduced without affecting game max volume it would be fine. Feels like the OS sounds are overpowering.
UOf course there’s a workaround, I can just turn it down and then back up again.. but hopefully it can be further refined in future to get the balance right.
AAverage bazzite enjoyer
AWhat game supports more than 8 controllers
Agotcha, so it's the system sounds that's out of whack, interesting.
A
maybe the sound convolver should be rolled back for the Ally.UThat’s the part I’m noticing yeah.. that’s the only thing I’ve seen reverberating the shell
ENo clue but it bugs out at 17 or more
Athe sound convolver was heavily tested on the LGO, but I don't know about the Ally
UThe “easy” solution in my head would be just to reduce the system sound volume by one or two notches.. I don’t think anyone wants loud system sounds.. but I have no idea if that’s actually easy in reality!
Kyou can reduce the volume of steam from the desktop
Kand then switch back to game mode
Kthat change is kept and reduces all system sounds
Adidn't know that, good to know
UAha!! This is where my complete lack of Linux knowledge shows 
Kpeople used to fuck it up lol, turn steam down to 0 and then open a support request like "help my gamemode has no UI sounds!"
Konly reason I know
Kto get steam to show up, get it to play audio
UWhere is that slider? Just desktop volume settings?
