 Sr. Estegosaurio | Like, I also cannot launch XWayland on my dGPU. | 17:24:43 |
| Sr. Estegosaurio | And a bunch of other cursed issues. | 17:24:52 |
 K900 | The HDR does not work on gamescope-session anyway | 17:25:18 |
| K900 | Or actually maybe it does now? | 17:25:27 |
| K900 | But it should at least work if you run it under kwin6 | 17:25:33 |

| Patrizio | Recently I installed NixOS on my Asus ROG Ally (because Windows is a real nightmare on this device) with disko for partitioning and setting up ZFS (because nixos-anywhere weren't able to use the network after the kexec for some reason) and gaming (e.g. Baldurs Gate 3 using Steam) works so great there it's almost boring... ZFS snapshots are great too there. 😉 | 07:32:37 |

| Patrizio | Anyone else here using a Handheld Gaming Device with NixOS? | 07:46:43 |
| K900 | Lots of people on Jovian, at least | 07:48:19 |
| K900 | (me included) | 07:49:05 |
| Patrizio | Ah, yes. I also looked at https://github.com/Jovian-Experiments/Jovian-NixOS first. Does it work on the ROG Ally too? Since I didn't have any issue with my NixOS config I never tried... | 07:50:31 |
| K900 | It... tries its best | 07:51:10 |
| K900 | Our primary target is still the Steam Deck | 07:51:20 |
| K900 | (hi, Jovian maintainer here) | 07:51:25 |
| K900 | And Valve's Steam Deck mode in Steam itself makes a bunch of assumptions about the environment | 07:51:44 |
| K900 | But it is largely pretty usable | 07:51:58 |

(hi, Jovian maintainer here) Phew, how many hours have the days where you are from? 😅 You seem to have your hands into everything! Amazing, thank you very much for the effort you put into everything NixOS! | 07:54:20 |

And Valve's Steam Deck mode in Steam itself makes a bunch of assumptions about the environment I just tested big picture mode and used the game controller for navigation... | 07:55:07 |

Phew, how many hours have the days where you are from? 😅 You seem to have your hands into everything! Amazing, thank you very much for the effort you put into everything NixOS! Honestly Jovian is pretty low maintenance these days | 07:56:19 |
| K900 | Also note that Big Picture is not actually quite the same as Steam Deck mode | 07:56:43 |
| K900 | The Steam Deck client is a separate build of Steam with a bunch of UI tweaks and SteamOS specific integrations that the "normal" client doesn't have | 07:57:14 |
| K900 | And we're in a weird spot where we want the OS integrations | 07:58:19 |
| K900 | But we don't want the Deck specific bits on non-Deck devices | 07:58:31 |
| K900 | But you either get both or neither | 07:58:38 |
| Patrizio | I'm just looking into getting the additional ROG Ally buttons to work. That would be nice. 😊
I haven't even looked into all the GPU tuning yet. 😊 Baldurs Gate already works great in Full HD! | 08:00:16 |
| K900 | Someone in the Jovian room had a thing for it | 08:00:41 |
