In Switzerland, I can’t even get a new one from Valve, so no refurbished one sadly.

But luckily there are other stores.

It’s probably what I’ll end up doing, but I just wanted to know what my options were.

Do you mean it’s not getting charged just by using the usb-c linked to the monitor?

I’ll probably first try without a dock and then maybe get one, but these power issues aren’t something I expected.

Oh I know this and I tried it a little bit in a VM and on an old computer I’m setting up for my son, but for me you’re never really experiencing a distro until you daily drive it😇

Thanks for the detailed answer!

It’s weird that Steam OS is still on KDE 5.2X and not using Wayland. I guess it’ll come.

I think I’ll really try to use KDE at the beginning until switching to Bazzite if I miss Gnome too much.

I officialy feel really stupid😅 Problem solved.

Thanks for the help!

PROTON_USE_WINED3D=1 %command%

You're a life saver and an e-waste avoider! I've only tried for a few minutes for now, but it looks like the game might work.

I managed to start playing and only noticed low fps and audio crackling. For now I also only tried it on Proton Experimental and 6.3-8 seemed to work better when I was just struggling to launch the game, so I'll try to remember to update this post and Proton DB when I can get more time to play.

This helped save a few of the earphones you get with iPhones.

I think every creator should be contacted before doing duch a thing and I guess a lot would not agree since most of them wouldn’t make any money on Peertube except if people support them through something like Patreon.

Yeah Steam Deck or Steam consoles might just be what I need to jump to the other side.

Well, physical games are one of the things retaining me on Playstation as it gives me the ability to sell a game I don’t enjoy.

If you take this away, it only leaves the plug&play aspect and the power for your money aspect.

Thanks for the suggestion about Rimworld, I’ll check it out👍

I’ll try Proton-Sarek when I get to go in front of the MacBook. Thanks

I bought it on Steam (flatpak), so I could clearly get a refund but I won’t do that as I still plan on playing this game one day.

I guess I clearly overstimated the graphical power of the MacBook because it feels so snappy for admin work. The Surface too, but a fraction slower.

If I want to get into Linux gaming, I’ll have to work on my benchmarking skills😅

What do you think about having a Steam OS partition for gaming and a Fedora partition for admin? Would it be doable?

In a way I would prefer this instead of just getting Bazzite as I might miss on some improvements from Steam OS

Is it difficult to get Gnome on Steam Os?

Wouldn’t I be able to have a gaming partition with Steam OS and its desktop mode and an administrative partition with Fedora workstation?

I know I would be wasting some space by doing this instead of just getting Bazzite, but I would be reassured to just keep the basic Steam Os..

I'm clearly gonna look deeply into this before eventually getting a Steam Deck. I was thinking about having a partition with Fedora Workstation and another one with Steam OS, but Bazzite might clearly be an option.

I'm gonna try the launch option you gave me before giving up, thanks.

Oh sorry, the spec screenshot isn't up to date. Both systems have been upgraded to Fedora 41 and both are now running the newest stock kernel.

Thanks for the precise and detailed answer.

Yeah I guess I clearly have to give up on playing games less than 10 years old, even on the more powerful MacBook.
