 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 |

| 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 |
| K900 | I think | 08:00:46 |
| K900 | Unless it was one of the other handhelds | 08:00:53 |
| Patrizio | ChimeraOS claims to be able to use the front facing buttons on the ROG Ally, so there must be something in Linux. 😁 | 08:02:32 |
| K900 | You might just need the latest kernel | 08:02:51 |
| K900 | Since we default to LTS | 08:02:59 |
| K900 | (we as in NixOS) | 08:03:06 |
| Patrizio | 🤔 I'm at something like 6.6.25. might be limited through github:NixOS/nixos-hardware/master or ZFS | 08:06:36 |
| K900 | ZFS, yes | 08:07:07 |
| Patrizio | hm, but I'm on 6.7 on a laptop that also uses ZFS 🤔 | 09:08:41 |
| K900 | We dropped 6.7 | 09:08:49 |
| K900 | Because upstream did | 09:08:55 |
| Patrizio | In reply to @k900:0upti.me
We dropped 6.7 Need to recheck | 11:43:36 |
