    The update was very smooth on the ROG Ally, truly feels great on this handheld especially in comparison to how Chimera felt on the older Aya handhelds

    Testing this out today on my setup! Happy to see the 555 drivers on Bazzite.

    Dowloaded it, its not perfect but the hdr makes it worth it so im backing away from x11. Im getting slight fps drops that dont seem to relate to the steam fps counter. I heard it messes with mozilla firefox, but havent seen much evidence.

    Great update hope they catch the last things as well, i might be paranoid for the slight chopiness, since im playing cyberpunk and that game still has alot of problems even at the end of its lifecycle.

      It’s a Nvidia driver bug, so if you’re not on Nvidia you should be good.

      Im getting slight fps drops that dont seem to relate to the steam fps counter.

      You could try enabling mangohud with the full config. From steam launch options:

       MANGOHUD_CONFIG=full MANGOHUD=1 %command%

      This will give you more detail than just FPS, although if you don’t still have your old setup it would be challenging to compare.

      Ok after a bit of using, i can confirm that wayland crashes pretty often especially on firefox, also gaming performance degrades over time (still looking into it)

    I’ll add I installed it on my OLED deck, and no obvious issues stand out. Chucked nix on it with the Determinate Nix Installer and deployed my Pipewire EQ and vkBasalt configs without issue (and without some of the audio output issues that SteamOS introduced with the 3.5 update). Oh and vkBasalt comes installed OOTB, which solves some maintenance annoyances with keeping it working on SteamOS.

    Steam game mode UI feels slightly snappier, perhaps down to using the BORE CPU scheduler (but it could be placebo of course).
