Bazzite is an alternative operating system for the Steam Deck and for Desktop PCs that closely emulates SteamOS, with numerous additional features and improvements on top. We use immutable Fedora as a base, and allow packages to be layered and kept through updates unlike stock SteamOS. You can even print and change the language...
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?
Note: This update is for the Steam Deck Preview channel, and includes new features that are still being tested. You can opt into this in Settings > System > System Update Channel....
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. :(...
So I’ve run mods on a bunch of different games which were downloaded and installed with the deck alone. No man’s sky, lethal company, Subnautica, etc. with generally no problems but some modding software run through wine had visual bugs but the games worked as intended....
Cyberpunk 2077 2.0 landed recently, and now I’ve had time to play with it here’s a look at how it runs on Steam Deck and desktop Linux after the update. The good news is: it runs out of the box with Proton. My testing has been with Proton Experimental....

So many times I forget to plug the deck or someone uses the charging cable for something else and I come back to play the next weekend and the deck is at 0%. Why doesn’t the deck have a deep sleep or hibernate mode on by default like my laptop or iPad?
I’ve seen people ask many times why an application doesn’t have sound anymore. I’ve had it multiple times. The answer is always, go to sound settings in desktop mode, open the Applications tab and unmute the application there. But how did it get muted in the first place?...
Roblox updated their client some months back, and the anticheat didn’t work with Linux at all. However, it looks like they’re working on fixing this and the game is now playable on their very early access “zcanary” builds....
According to SteamDeckHQ it can reach stable 30 FPS even with a TDP of 11 and even 40 FPS (although with some dips), these tests are only on the first leve though; we’ll have to wait for a full review
For anyone who did not think about it beforehand and struggled as me. You can run KDE Connect on your machine and send keyboard and mouse inputs using kde connect. Almost 0 input lag. So you can do all you need....
