Forgot about that... I should have held back from buying Jedi Survivor.

Orange Pi Neo gaming handheld to come with Manjaro Linux

You are right, but OrangePi, like RaspberryPi, are not targeting the masses. Those are thinkerers oriented companies. Manjaro is a good fit with this mindset, but is a handheld a good hardware platform for thinkerers? I'm not sure, but we will see...

Quoting: gaboverstaIf I was a decision maker I would not ship manjaro. A distro that $equires enduse$s to read the release notes will not go down well with people jslust buying a handheld.
But having trackpads is an excellent choice. This device looks like it solves th$ee of the reasons why I have not bought any steam deck competitors: No windows, yes Trackpads.
Should they now arrange for me suddenly not having a steam deck there will be questions.

Ooooh... Nice! This one picks my interest. Let's wait and see the reviews, but the hardware side is pretty interesting. It's possible to install gamescope and gamescope-session on Manjaro. Not a bad choice.

ChimeraOS is pretty awesome. The maintainer is doing a top notch job; I tried it from time to time, but unfortunately I couldn't find a convenient way to configure the Dolphin emulator. That's the main reason why I stick to Holoiso on my "couch gaming pc" (Emudeck and Steam Rom Manager supported). That's the way I like it.

They keep on listening to the wrong people. The Steam Deck's success is a proof of that. Handheld gaming is not the same as pure PC gaming. What they are now offering is a degraded user experience on an under powered hardware.
Oh well, shame on them.
For my part, the Steam Deck is the only true PC handheld. All others are badly executed and pale imitations. Probably the 3millions+ who bought the Steam Deck and stuck with SteamOS are thinking the same.

Proton 8.0-5 brings more HDR gaming to Linux / Steam Deck plus lots of fixes

I don't know if it's linked to this update, but since yesterday, Witcher 3 keeps on crashing in the glossary menu. No matter what I do, I get a hard freeze. Tried on my Steam Deck and my computer with Holoiso. Tried deleting the proton files. Tried validating game files. Switched to proton experimental & Hotfix. Hard freeze every time.
Edit: DX12 issue. At least, the DX11 version runs fine.

Thank you, but no thank you.
I have no trust in EA or Ubisoft. It all comes down to this.
I much prefer to buy my games on Steam and still be able to play them tens of years later. I Never lost access to a game on Steam yet, even if it is not available for purchase anymore (one such example is Dirt Showdown).

AYANEO Next Lite with a customized SteamOS-like HoloISO fully revealed

On that, I think you are right. They must have found a way to solve these problems internally, like I did with the updates bug, but it's a straighter way to upgrade to the official SteamOS when it's available (end user wise), if that's what they are planning to do.

Quoting: dubigrasuQuoting: MohandevirPesonnally, I prefer Holoiso. I can use it exactly like SteamOS, on my PC. Emudeck works the same & the app store is the same. Quite similar in behavior. That may be the reason. They might have decided this, because they could not get official SteamOS from Valve, yet. Just my two cents.Agree that a SteamDeck like experience is preferable, but I see HoloIso itself as a problematic choice. In my search for a SteamOS-like experience HoloIso was indeed the closest one, but was also the most problematic.

My reasoning is not specifically linked to the chipset though. I'm not completely sure, but I think that you may find previous Ayaneo models with the same apus. Just by memory, don't take it for granted.

Quoting: CatKillerQuoting: MohandevirRenoir is the same Zen 2 as the Van Gogh in the Deck; the Deck just uses RDNA 2 for the GPU rather than the Vega in the mainstream chips.Quoting: CatKillerHands up: I didn't think that they'd be able to match the price of the Deck, but they have. They must've managed to get some sweet prices on components.
4000 series apu. Old tech? Could it be a rebranding of an older model's internals leftovers that they are trying to get rid off?
If so smart move, but I'm not interrested.
But, yes, stock clearance would have helped with the pricing.
