My Steam Deck arrived and I even got a setup for it. My problem rn is that my keyboard has an american layout but I need to type german umlaute sometimes…how do I do that?

I have an Anker Powercore that has enough output to charge the SD while playing, so just wondering what is the most efficient method to get the most out of both power sources for long haul flights.

It causes a bunch of weird controller errors, such as when a controller disconnects (or if the deck goes to sleep), it can’t reconnect again....

I was exploring the fps and refresh rate slider and I realized that when setting the framerate limiter to 25, the refresh rate was incorrectly set to 50Hz on the OLED version, when the 75 Hz setting would be a more appropriate setting, for the same reason 30 fps is at 90 Hz and not 60 Hz. Anyone else seeing the same behavior? Is...

I’ve been reading reviews and when it comes to the HDR feature, nobody really says much more than “It does HDR!”...

I used to be a console gamer. Bo2 on the Xbox 360 was my favorite game of all time. I moved to csgo, once I got a pc....

Bought the GuliKit Hall effect sensors sticks as soon as they released. Loved the (almost) zero dead zone and their drift resistance....

I got my Steam Deck 3 days ago and I just started exploring it. Given that I already have a large library of games on Epic Games, one of the first thing I did was installing the Heroic launcher. It worked well for some of the games (and not for others… like Hyper Light Drifter ;_; if someone knows how to configure it please...

P.s. Reddit mods deleted this because it “wasn’t related to the Steam Deck.”. This is my first post on Lemmy. Please be nice and at least let this languish in obscurity rather than remove it outright and cut off any hope of discussion. :(...

I’m looking for recommendations for earbuds that I can use with my Steam Deck, ideally also being fairly useful for general use with an Android phone....

Got one!

I’ve just installed ProtonVPN on my Deck but it won’t connect and tbh I don’t want to touch anything in the console/tinker with that…how can I still use ProtonVPN?

Just a public PSA and was a little sad. I thought the latest kernel updates would address this. Until then, when you plug the official Xbox Wireless USB in- nothing happens....

I purchased a brand new Xbox wireless controller. It paired with my steam deck easily but it will not connect and the “X” button on the controller keeps flashing. I’ve hit every button on the controller and can’t get it to actually connect. I’ve also rebooted the steam deck....

Updated my dock to the latest firmware today. It worked fine until I restarted my deck to try and resolve some game streaming issues. After restarting the deck, the dock no longer works. When it is first connected to power, the ethernet lights strobe then go dark. Ethernet isn’t being detected by the deck and neither is the...

I need to use Microsoft Fonts since I use my Deck as a laptop replacement and I don’t know how to download/install MS Fonts (preferrably MS 10/11). I don’t have a MS image or CD to rip it from there :/

I’m interested academically (please no “it’s enough”)....

Hi guys! So I have been testing RDR on a hacked switch, on a PC with a 1070 and a 6700, and on the SD (both using Yuzu Pineapple 3851). Seems the switch is still offering a smoother experience, even when Yuzu claims 30fps. It feels more…jittery? Is there a way to soften the framerate?...

Is the performance for docked games better in game mode or desktop mode? Let’s say CS:GO - would the performance (docked) be better in game mode (resolution set in properties to 1080p) or desktop mode (1080p)? Thanks....

I have got some CS items that I can turn into monies in my Steam wallet that I again could turn into a Steam Deck. The only problem is that I live in Norway and therefore can not....

So during one of the Xbox Game Pass promotions I signed up for a few months and ended up buying Forza Horizon 4 on sale. I am trying to find a way to play it on Steam Deck, but so far all I have found is guides on how to use the streaming on the Game Pass to play on Steam Deck, which only works with an active Game Pass sub (in...

SteamOS 3.6 is live on the “main” update channel, and it is very buggy. (Note: the most bleeding edge update channel is called main. 3.6 is only live on the “main” channel, not any of the stable or beta channels)....

Hi, I was interested in playing the HD version of Beyond good and evil on my Steam Deck. I did some research online and I found out that at least to 1 year ago the Steam version of the game had many issues (only french language and settings related problems). Anyone knows if those issues are still there or I can buy the game...

How would you rate the OLED deck? Did you keep your LCD deck? Have you noticed any of the smaller improvements like a more responsive touch screen? Has the battery life improvement been noticable?
