Is it possible to install the GFN Chrome shortcut? How is it handled by the Steam Deck?

Edit: Meaning, if it was possible, I would have GFN and Stadia dedicated shortcuts (download browser app) directly in my Steam library. I would probably have a Deezer shortcut too... Is it possible?

I wasn't hallucinating when I posted the issues I witnessed with Proton 7.0-1, some time ago, in another post. Is it a problem about how Proton 7.0-1 handles inputs from usb devices?

Quoting: MohandevirNice! Looking forward to install SteamOS 3 on my Nvidia PC.

I'm not sure it would be that good, for now SteamOS 3 is pretty much specialized for the steam deck, and although you can use the desktop on SteamOS 3, it's a bit experimental I would say, you would either have to remove the read-only and see your changes overwritten by updates, or install everything via flatpak, which I'm sure has its limitations.

You can use gamescope on a standard linux distro, like ubuntu or manjaro, just fine. You just have to edit the steam options to use it with the games you want

It's all speculation, for the moment. From what I read, Valve plans to release SteamOS 3 for other configurations. It will probably be a little different to what we see on Steam Deck. I'm still willing to at least try it and make my own opinion, but my gaming rig is hooked to my TV, atm... It's a big console... Could be a good match.

that is why its called experimental to begin with.
its like when i used non LTS ubuntu then complained all the time.
experimental folks test it to make sure its stable enough for people who dont want to be beta testers.

well, i like valve rating system, they market Guilty Gear X2 #Reload as umplayable, and i know the issue with it is the cutscenes missing, if we depend on protonDB it would be rated as "platinum" so despite some errors, i think they are still doing better, hopefully it will be fixed soon for those games with errors, either fixed the rating or the games, i think those games miss labeled should be priority to fix, so consumers who purchased based on those rates wont get disapointed.

BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger is marked as unplayable, great, the 2 i'm waiting...

I know what is Proton Experimental and what to expect. I was talking about 7.0-1 that is supposed to be stable but seems to be causing issues. Maybe it (7.0-1) needed more time in experimental?

I can't say for the Steam Deck, but personnally I witnessed some regressions(?) with the latest Proton builds... Proton Experimental or 7.0-1 seem to be generating a lot of in-game crashes (after 15 to 30 mins of play) and performance issues... In my case, I had to run Mad Max and Bioshock Infinte with Proton 6.3-8 to avoid these crashes and It helped someone who had similar crashes with Red Dead Redemption 2 too, on the Steam Deck... Just my personnal experience, but if it's confirmed, defaulting to 7.0-1 on Steam Deck might not be a glorious idea, for the moment.

The parameters were commented out and they forgot to remove the "#"? :grin:

Now that the Steam Deck is out, I'm probably not going to try it, but anything to attenuate gaming's reliance on Windows is a good thing, imo.

Aaaah! Come on! What is that!? The EAC file was added by accident or removed by accident? Proton even got bug corrections for that particular game... It doesn't make sense!

Just finished the full length video... One question that comes to my mind... I'm a big fan of the gyro, on my Steam Controller, on my big fixed 50" TV... But gyro? With the Deck? With the screen moving? I expected it to be some nuisance... No?

By the way! Awesome video! Really liked your inputs, all of you and you all seemed to have genuinely enjoyed it. It's fun to see and hear who I usually read.

Edit: Ge-nu-in-ely... Wow! That was hard to write! :smile:
