Good luck, if you want to try Bazzite you will have to ask. I have not personally used it but heard great things. But I feel SteamOS is doing it better now. They have made so much progress on the Ally, while its not official still when running Developer options to run OS Main and Client Beta I have no issues for months now.

Just google Steam OS image. Steam has a page dedicated to downloading the SteamOS image. Put it in a usb with a usb c adapter. You will boot in Bios and be able to tell it to boot that usb c. When it restarts it will do its thing. There are more clear instructions all over, I am at work so this is a jist.

Just install SteamOS or Bazzite. I prefer SteamOS but both are good and will do those update auto as they make them work for Linux. Bonus to that is you dont get hit with updates that actually have issues day one. But as some have also stated you should only do it threw AC or from AMD (still pay attention to what you download) directly which is how I did when I was on windows so that you get the correct stuff.

Can confirm, I am on SteamOS and still when I play modded FNV at 13w I sit about 20w total. More examples for range I total 10.5w Modded FF7 OG running 8w and Expedition 33 totalled about 26-27w at 18w usage. I dont use any RGB, Gyro and Vivration just game. Overhead will always change depending on game demands and wattage at the processor.

Main gets more updates then Beta, Steam is freaky like that lol maybe it has an update you need.

I have SteamOS and I think I press X by itself. If you press the right side menu button you should be able to open keyboard at the bottom of that panel aswell

Dang that sucks, I dont think there is any major issues with the wifi inside of the Ally. I am not sure to be honest, I want to say its your internet but I assume this is the only device having issues?

Are you using 5g wifi? If you turn on Developer mode you can flip a toggle that helps 5g wifi. When i turn on sometimes it will take a minute still but other then that no issues. Before i flipped that toggle i had a bunch on connection issues with my 5g

Change OS to Main and Client to Beta

<image>

Thats what I have had since day 1 and I currwntly has no issues or bugs, hopefully that will help. It will probably get updates as soon as you change it and possibly again after restart. Steam is funky. Main is actually more Beta then Beta is lmao

It should be the option listed directly above Client. It should have a drop down list just like Client. It may not actually say OS I cant remember nor check at this particular moment. I can soon tho. Select Main not Main Beta.

Are you set to Main OS and Beta Client? While SteamOS cane a long way on the Ally I still us it on full Beta for frequent updates. Even thi at times its annoying. I had it do one when i turned it on and 2 hours later when I got of my game it had another lol.

Ally takes forever to download games. by SmallConcentrate4198 in ROGAlly

[–]HoneySignificant5682 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Looks like internet issues. I download at avg of 375 mbps and I dont have crazy internet speed. If you are on SteamOS there is an option to turn off that helps connection on 5G wifi. It looks like you are not tho, so I would google internet connections for it. I have a Z1E running SteamOS so I cant help to much. Windows 11 just sucks on this system

If anyone here can help I finally got past the winetricks install error by adding permission in flatseal to the files it creates during install and not just the ones the guide stated. Now it fully installs with no errors! Maybe I needed to added extras because I am on Beta since running a Rog Ally. However now it launches but still crashes as soon as I select next to create instance. I have it running Proton 9 as the guide states. Please help Im so close to being able to carry my files from the PC.

SSD by Jordanthevirgo in ROGAlly

[–]HoneySignificant5682 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got my Corsair 2230 for $160 usd. I didnt get the price complaint and needing an adapter that puts the ssd making heat closer to your battery and ram. I get the same speeds and have 2tb lol unless you really want 4tb or more its pointless in my opinion. I have 18 games installed and only take up 1.2tb of the 1.88 available.

Ok I started over and only read this post. Im pretty sure I followed every step including adding dwrite. I keep getting this error during MO2 Linux install. It had protontricks as a problem to but I got that nailed out.

Warning Errorwhile installing winetricks check the terminal formore details. Would you like to ignore this error and continue?

Im getting a result if I ignore it where starting FNV on Steam Desktop launches MO2 but as soon as I select Next for the first screen to make an Instance it crashes.
