Silverblue and immutable/hermetic /usr/ operating systems are the future. First, Steam Deck. Next, GNU/Linux desktop as a whole!

Just bought a GuliKit King Kong 2 controller, but as i still have some issues with it (apparently the first one to have those issues, as always...) i'll keep my xbox one controller in ;D

This is my first time hearing about it. What kind of issues do you have?

Yeah i bought it because it was said to be working well out of the box, too ;)
It wouldn't connect properly in switchmode and constantly vibrate (and not work in some games) in PC-mode.

I've already narrowed it down a bit (thanks to the awesome xpadneo dev, too: https://github.com/atar-axis/xpadneo/issues/391 ) that is has something to do with interference from xpadneo.

So when you don't have xpadneo installed (that i need for my xbox series controller though) and connect via switch mode, it indeed seems to work fine from short tests. Connected in PC mode without xpadneo (so using hid_microsoft module) works fine, but has no vibration. And xpadneo loaded with a quriks flag (for disabling rumble in the triggers as far as i understand) gets rid of the constant vibration, still has no vibration in games though and makes it so some games don't pick it up at all...

Very strange all in all ^^

What about adding an option for Steam Deck ownership and which version?

What about adding an option for Steam Deck ownership and which version?

This. Right now it is my main gaming device but I would feel silly filling out the hardware details manually. Besides, it is my main gaming device but not my main Linux machine which I also use to game (actually the stats would be kinda boring if we start counting SD this way).

I would like an additional question:
 
Do you own a Steam Deck ( or any other Linux powered handheld gaming device)?
1. No
2. Yes, as a complement to my main machine
3. Yes, as my main gaming device
4. Yes, I use it for EVERYTHING

This is the first month in a long while where my PC info changed. Increased my RAM, upgraded my GPU, swapped EndeavourOS for Kubuntu, and swapped my PS5/DualSense controller for a Stadia controller.

Say what you will about Stadia...I'm no fan of cloud gaming myself, but the Stadia controller is actually quite good.

I just realized i still had "HTC Vive" as PC VR headset, while i switched to Oculus Quest 2 some times ago.

I think it should be added on the list, since it's currently the most popular headset out there, even if doesn't officially support Linux, and unofficial apps still have lots of improvements to do.

Maybe it could convince Meta to add Linux support in the future... (i don't see this happening anytime soon, if ever, but who knows)

Where Nobara? It's too glorious to not be included.

This post is really interesting to discuss on first of the month, when new chunk of statistics is published. Still waiting for AMD GPUs to overtake Nvidia :)

Never heard of this.

one would think that the typical Linux-User and Meta are about as incompatible as it gets ;)

Added NVIDIA 4090, plus Intel Arc 770 and 750 today.

Added all current Meta headsets in.

First setup I'd seen this way was the AtariVCS. Definitely made me think of other possibilities for other uses of such a setup.

It's basically Fedora with some sprinkles on top. It's managed by one GloriousEggroll (yes, the guy behind Proton-GE).

Ha, that's funny. The crappy things about GPUs. 1) we only have really two main players if you want better than 'meh' performance (maybe the ARC GPUs from Intel will change this, but I doubt it). 2) Either you have open source drivers that require kernel updates and bleeding edge mesa if you have a new one, or you have proprietary drivers, which (dependent on Distro) are easier to install, but usually have some features lagging behind the Windows ones.

The other issues are developers themselves, where they either test with AMD or NVidia, but for some unknown reason, rarely bother to test with both. This of course have caused them to state that supported video cards are one or the other, even though either would work fine. You can damn well bet they try multiple configurations in Windows...
Shmerl Nov 3, 2022
Yeah, Intel so far didn't start competing seriously. May be they will.

Kernel updates + custom built Mesa kind of works, but if Mesa could decrease release period, updates could come sooner to those who don't want to bother building or using unstable versions. But I suppose Mesa project have their own reasons for their current release cycle.

Developers testing with more hardware is of course better. I suspect smaller developers don't have money to buy multiple GPUs, while others don't want to bother? Any professional developer studio should for sure test on multiple GPUs.
