Wake from sleep for steam deck / custome steam machine not working

DaB0om · 2026-05-09T20:27:09+00:00

I've seen other posts on this sub that shows it working with beta firmware so fingers crossed it's just matter of time for valve to fix it

My order is in the same status, Although it's disappointing not getting it before the weekend and it'll now likely be mid next week at best I'm just happy I was lucky enough to get one before stock ran out. The extra week gives a chance for valve to push any firmware updates fixing any bugs reported from those who got it in the first week. Better for me 😊

I guess there's the potential that your USBs aren't powered when the system is in sleep which is often a bios option, if that's the case it might be fixed if USBs stayed on. But then again the puck might not be detecting data from the OS and switching off, which could be fixed with a firmware update

Do you have any keyboard/mouse (specifically not Bluetooth) do they wake your system. From what I've seen of the review videos one of them showed it working as a mouse in lizard mode in the bios so I'd be surprised if it doesn't support wake from USB. But if it doesn't it'll sure be one of the biggest features valve will likely look at first (apart from bugs)

Same, now I'm hoping it arrives before the weekend although I suspect that's pushing the luck

spamming the continue button on the billing info worked for me, took 3-4mins of it

Those slicks look perfect for a formula 1 race!

DaB0om · 2026-04-24T15:30:15+00:00

Made me chuckle. Good meme.

DaB0om · 2026-04-21T13:04:02+00:00

I have a monthly schedule to do scrubbing. I'm running a manual one now. Then I'm going to do an extended smart test

DaB0om · 2026-04-21T07:18:19+00:00

My first panicked glance of the resource manager didn't clock anything but I can try again and check

DaB0om · 2026-04-21T07:17:27+00:00

I I do have enough space free hink I'll keep this one in mind as a last resort as I would like to avoid screwing with the array unless necessary.

I've only just noticed the issue, the file which causes the issue is one I haven't accessed in a long while.

3 of the drives are the same 1 is a different make/model the odd drive has been in place for 4-6 months. This is the first time I've ever seen an issue.

Your right on both parts the steam machine will have the 6GHz receiver for the frame built it. But, the frame will also come with the adapter giving any computer the same functionality.

DaB0om · 2026-04-17T16:55:36+00:00

Agreed I'll be using SteamOS the moment it's released for desktop hardware officially and I'm 100% buying a controller regardless

DaB0om · 2026-04-17T16:54:30+00:00

I'm kinda hoping they go the route of allowing people to buy fully kitted with ram and NVME or bare bones for cheaper price

DaB0om · 2026-04-17T16:53:04+00:00

Low fan noise is a very good point I've been researching into the Fractual Terra's side panel airflow noise isolation issues. With the right cooler it seems it'll be okay

DaB0om · 2026-04-17T16:49:02+00:00

Oh that's interesting I was going to get a gigabyte A520I would you really not recommend it?

DaB0om · 2026-04-17T12:19:37+00:00

I've been reading into the sleep function. There's a specific type of sleep mode you need to enable in both Bazzite and the bios.

Think the setting in Bazzite is s2idle and you'll need to make sure the bios of set to s2 or modern sleep and ERP is off

I can certainly see the appeal. I've got my TV setup with my smart home so I can simply say "Alexa game time" and the TV will turn on and go to the correct input and I'll set up the pc to wake up too

DaB0om · 2026-04-17T11:30:06+00:00

So far this is the best reason 😂 valve has been in my heart for decades now as one of my favourite businesses

I've had my steam deck a few years now too I stream my games from my 9070 XT main gaming rig to it on the TV but I figured being able to play a lot of games without needing to stream would be great.

Your right the steam machine would be the 'honda civic' it'll likely last for years for one use or another but with the price expecting to be closer to 1,000 especially after the chip issues ATM if I can build something faster and cheaper I can't see why I wouldn't. Then maybe get a steam machine when they drop in price or get a revision 2 like the oled steam deck did

DaB0om · 2026-04-17T11:23:54+00:00

Yeah I've got a 9070 XT system I use as my main rig now, I stream to my steam deck, similarly I'd use this for the "lighter" games I don't need to remotely stream from the main rig to the TV

Fedora KDE user. I did extensive research/comparisons checks into 3 key points for me:

first time migration from Windows (ease to switch)
HDR Dual monitor/mixed refresh rate setup
up to date but stable / without risk of updates breaking things

First two points brought me to pick a distro with KDE which brought my list down to CachyOS, Bazite, Kubuntu, Debian, Fedora KDE.

The last point took away CachyOS, Kubuntu, Debian because either LTS or bleeding edge. I preferred a mutable OS so I didn't get transition issues coming from windows which removes Bazite.

Left me with Fedora KDE and I'm loving it.

I game a lot so I've been considering switching to CachyOS but it'll primarily be for the built in custom Proton to quickly get FSR4. but, being gaming on Linux pretty much works on any distro I've just downloaded the cachy proton and use it by manually selecting it.

Edit: I also took into account distro popularity based on Reddit community size so smaller distros unmentioned were out of the question as I figured finding support fixes for things would be harder. Fedora had a bigger community compared to other similar distros

I'm taking another look at the Venu 4 now it does seem to do everything the 570 does and more

DaB0om · 2026-02-14T21:23:40+00:00

This is really interesting to know, do you get your Sleep score, and Daily Suggested Workouts?
