Somebody knows how to solve this? Since the update. when docked, I see the Steam Deck logo on my 4K TV and then I get "NO SIGNAL" from my Steam Deck LCD. I tried shutdown and restart and reboot. I changed my HDMI cable (that was working fine up until now). Nothing works. Is there a SteamOS option that I should turn off (CEC maybe)?

Edit 1: Got it. The automatic external screen resolution doesn't work with my TV. I need to set it manually to 1920x1080x60hz. The 3840x2160x60hz resolution is not recognized anymore. I must put the Steam Deck in External Display Safe Mode that makes my TV display Gamescope in 800p or something similar. After that, the max resolution that doesn't crash my display is 1080p.

Edit 2: Just had a flash, this morning... I replaced my JSAUX docking station with my old Ivoler one and put the settings back to automatic resolution detection. It boots just right. In my case, It seems the update induced a compatibility issue with the JSAUX 7in1 (HB0702) docking station.

Quoting: _MarsA shame, given that it's the only game I would really miss when I get rid of my Windows 10 installation after support runs out.

But honestly, I can't really blame them. After seeing the very pathetic state of Counter-Strike's attempt at an server "anti-cheat" from the biggest company pushing Linux gaming, it really doesn’t inspire much confidence.

Cheating has always been and will always be. "Someone will always make a better idiot".
That's one of the reasons I've never been attracted to online PvP games. This and the toxic communities that usually goes with these games. I much prefer local multiplayer with friends, on private servers, to any of these garbage setups. I have fond memories playing TF2 during an event, organized at my previous job, on our private server. 10 players in the same room, "politely" mocking each other, on top of that!

That's my point of view and I respect it. :grin:

Rhetorical question: Did it, at least, solved their cheating issues?
I'd be curious to know what Valve thinks about the situation, regarding the Steam Deck...

Quoting: MohandevirMy new stance is to wait for an update where they remove it.

AFAIK Ubisoft never removes Denuvo from their games unlike most other developers.

Good to know. They'll never get my money, then. :smile:

Quoting: PublicNuisance"Incorporates 3rd-party DRM: Denuvo Anti-tamper 5 a day machine activation limit"

"Requires 3rd-Party Account: Ubisoft Connect Launcher (Supports Linking to Steam Account)"

Swing and a miss, still not getting my money Ubisoft.

Yeah. Got burrned by Denuvo a couple of times. My new stance is to wait for an update where they remove it. It will just perform better, overall. I should have done that with Star Wars Jedi Survivor. That game's Denuvo integration was a great example of what not to do!

Quoting: hardpenguin(..) Steam Controller 2

Now that's something I can get behind 100%. If Valve sold a controller that was more or less the Deck without screen I'd buy 3: 1 to use, 1 for multiplayer, and 1 for safe keeping.

There is an ongoing discussion on Reddit about such solution, so called Deck Controller. Many of us would prefer just a Steam Controller revival because each of those solutions has its upsides and downsides. For example, SC is arguably more comfortable and effective to use than Deck for power users like myself that focus on the touchpad. That said, I would be definitely willing to give Deck Controller a go as well!

Talking about the Steam Controller... I did some troubleshooting with my Steam Link hardware vs Steam link app on Nvidia Shield... I connected my 8bitdo Ultimate 2C with the 2.4ghz dongle, on the Steam Link hardware (works perfectly, even the rumble works)... I wanted to sync my SC via Bluetooth and pushed the wrong button combo (Steam + A)... My SC synced itself to the 8bitdo dongle and is working properly... Whaaaat?! :grin:

Sorry, not really on topic, but I had to share it. :happy:

And it's not a bad thing. Many devs are still making their games a good experience on the Steam Deck. There is always that dev that won't take the Steam Deck into account, once in a while, but there is so much choice, It's easy to forget about these games and play something else.

"If you don't care about me, you won't get my money".

After all, the goal of the Steam Deck was never to appeal to the High End market, it was to supply a stable base of development that will meet the widest range of players possible.
