I look forward to all the improvements KDE Plasma will get with the Steam Deck
10 August 2021 at 1:17 pm UTC
I tried KDE Plasma on Fedora 34 recently and it seems to work well.
I had 2 issues though:
- I don't know why but the Discord app keeps crashing when launched on Plasma (the same app is perfectly stable on Gnome), it may be a flatpak issue though.
- I have 2 screens and my wallpaper has the resolution of my 2 screens combined. I didn't find the option to span the wallpaper on the 2 screens at once.

Quoting: NeverthelessQuoting: BielFPsI'm not a kde user, but I am a fan of some of their software like Krita and Kdenlive, so I'm happy that their efforts are being recognized and hope that those improves include their wayland compositor too.
I would be maybe.. but somehow I have the feeling KDE and Nvidia aren't friends...
Even the installation of Fedora KDE crashes all the time for me.

That was faster than I thought, good job to people involved.

Quoting: ShmerlI also share this concern than most people will put Windows on it, even if Valve nailed Proton compatibility and performance, those who use the Microsoft Gamepass will want it on the device too and we can't do anything against that.Quoting: damarrinTo rain a little on everyone's parade (mine included), people on another gaming website I go to have been saying en masse how it's an instant Windows install for it to be even remotely useful. That's what the "general public" thinks, unfortunately :-(
I think realistically only a very tiny percentage of people are interested in installing OSes at all. And many of those who do, would prefer Linux. Regular user simply isn't interested or not even sure how to install an OS, no matter Linux or Windows. So I wouldn't worry about the above at all.
So if you want to analyze the "general public" - it's a major plus that device is coming with Linux preinstalled, because that's what they'll be using.
NVIDIA to launch DLSS support for Proton on Linux tomorrow (June 22)

Does it have thunderbolt 3?
So we could plug a GPU enclosure to it.

The real problem of Stadia is the business model.
Nobody is willing to pay for a service where you need to buy your games anyway (without even possessing a copy of them).
The Stadia pro offert is not as appealing as the Game pass from Microsoft.

While I'm glad they are including Gnome Tweaks by default (It should really be integrated to Gnome), I will probably disable their dock to use Plank instead.

I'm always amazed to see how many game devs are still ignoring SDL2 and are re-inventing the wheel when they have to deal with Linux... No wonder why they struggle to support our platform.
