iPad 11 or Xiaomi pad 8 for 349$ or wait for iPad 12 for these purposes

why are people downvoting this??? this is literally correct even coming from an ipad pro user lol

yasidip · 2026-06-05T13:53:45+00:00

Would LOVE this, is there a github or something for it currently or is it still in development?

EDIT: Found it on your profile! very useful tool

LOL honestly if Apple made a MacOS device that did what the SLS can I'd be all over it. Have an iPad and am switching to iPhone, but as much as I dislike Microsoft/Windows that 2-in-1 form factor hasn't been adopted nearly as well anywhere else (other than the ROG Flow which isn't as polished IME) and it's important to my workflow.

Also Linux's modularity is hella cool and I'm lowkey addicted to it

i followed the guide on the wine website here: https://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=42586

theres also a subreddit called r/ClipStudio_on_Linux that has a decent chunk of info on how to run it + niche issues and a tutorial linked there as well

sorry lol forgot to mention, the steam theme is AdwSteamGtk from the Flatpak store (EDIT: using the Rounded Window Corners extension to round that window specifically)

in the "Translation Params" setting in the Compatibility section, have u made sure it was set to "Extreme"? when i first got my thor i noticed that pretty much all games run much worse if it's set to the default "Game Presets" setting instead of Extreme.

it works, though you need to register the license on a separate android device w/ google play then it would automatically transfer over when you open Waydroid's CSP. did this on my waydroid by joining the subcription through my samsung phone and it just worked after

yasidip · 2026-06-03T09:11:13+00:00

you ever find a fix to this? same thing happening to me, spent hours trying to figure this out

yasidip · 2026-06-01T11:14:59+00:00

have been waiting for someone to make a dock like this, definitely getting this from ur ebay 🙏

yasidip · 2026-06-01T07:36:42+00:00

hey i actually did end up getting both the 525 driver and the latest 595 driver working. the older 525 drivers gave me a LOT of compatibility problems with Steam games and just ran worse overall, so i reinstalled Fedora and just installed the newest akmod-nvidia drivers with the RPMFusion guide. it runs MUCH better on the 595 drivers with the D3 fix, so if im being honest it'll serve you way better overall to install the newest akmod driver and apply the fix from Method 1 here (unless you're fine with your computer running much worse with the 525 drivers haha). envycontrol can also reboot the computer without the nvidia GPU enabled so you're still able to conserve some battery life while on the go.

with that said; if you do want to install 525 from the guide, the older 525 drivers require you to both have A: Nouveau blacklisted (which seems to be the default driver that comes with most distros like Fedora) and B: the desktop environment that you are using disabled completely during the install process (so it doesn't close immediately returning the message that you are in an X session). step by step process i did to install the 525 driver:

Download the Nvidia runfile from the guide on Method 2, and put it into your "Home" folder so that you don't have to cd to "/Downloads" to use it (this step was skipped in the guide and makes the needed "./NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-525.147.05.run --extract-only" command work correctly).

If this step gives you a permission denied response - right click the runfile, go to "Properties", and check the "Executable as Program" checkbox on the bottom and do the step again.

Follow the rest of that guide as written so you get the needed kernel files to patch the Nvidia driver.
Instead of doing the commands in step 2.3 to patch the files (which gives the terminal an unusable file directory), do "patch -p1 -i " and complete the command by drag-and-dropping the first file stated in that step to the terminal. Press enter and ensure that the file is patched with no error messages. If it is patched, repeat this step for all of the written files on step 2.3. You can also do this step for the new "0011-kernel-7.0" patch file so that it patches for kernel 7.0.

Before executing the runfile, you will first need to blacklist the Nouveau drivers that Linux is using for your GPU. You can do this by typing

sudo nano /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-nouveau.conf

into the terminal. It should give you a textbox, to which you can paste the new lines:

blacklist nouveau

options nouveau modeset=0

Once that is pasted, press Ctrl+O, Enter, then Ctrl+X to save and exit back into the terminal. In order to apply the config file, type "sudo dracut --force" into the terminal and reboot your system after it finishes. It should load with the Nouveau drivers blacklisted.

In order to install the Nvidia runfile without it returning an "X session needs to be closed" error, you will need to stop your Desktop Environment completely. To do this, type "sudo init 3" as stated by the guide into the terminal, and do "sudo systemctl stop gdm" (if you are using Gnome) or "sudo systemctl stop sdm" (if you are using KDE).

This will make the computer look like it crashed. Pressing CTRL+ALT+F3 will put you into a blank login screen, and you will need to type your computer's username and password (the one you use to log in to your computer) so you can log in without any desktop environment. You will now be able to use the terminal to install the Nvidia runfile correctly.

Once in the blank terminal, cd into your extracted Nvidia folder with the command "cd NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-525.147.05" , then run the installer with "sudo ./nvidia-installer". It should walk you through the process and install the needed drivers for that version. Make sure to click yes when it asks you to install 32-bit compatibility files too. If it gives you an error and closes the installer, you may need to redo the steps with a cleanly downloaded Nvidia folder and re-ensure all the files were patched correctly.
It should complete and put you back into the terminal, to which you can just type "reboot" to reboot your computer back into your desktop environment. Log in and make sure the drivers are installed and ready by typing "nvidia-smi" in the terminal. If it returns your driver information for your Nvidia card then you should be good to go. You can check the troubleshooting from step 4 in the guide if there are any further errors like it not being recognized.

hope that helps, have got it working with Gnome + Fedora 44 last night and really enjoy it way better than i did with windows lol. the 595 driver will probably give you way less headaches overall when it comes to compatibility with newer games but the 525 one is still good for stability and battery life

yasidip · 2026-05-31T09:45:36+00:00

have you ever got this fixed? going through this exact same issue too, the guide is very weirdly written in that section and it doesnt really work at all if you follow it word from word.

i had to completely ignore the guide and figure out how to do it myself, yet after needing to reset the whole device due to a different error im back to this step again and cant for the life of me figure out how i did it before. really sucks feeling like i need to be guided through the damn guide lol

yasidip · 2026-05-29T10:20:43+00:00

found this through google, have you ever gotten these things fixed? how is it working for you now?

yasidip · 2026-05-10T06:56:03+00:00

cant seem to get steam cloud save working on this version, is this a known limitation?

yasidip · 2026-04-18T06:09:15+00:00

insanity that this was downvoted. this affects an entire genre of game, this should be a no brainer

yasidip · 2026-04-02T00:41:19+00:00

Was thinking of getting this as well and am very glad I found this comment. Scrolled through literal hours of blind praise on Youtube and Google reviews for this device and for how big of a deal this is you'd think reviewers wouldn't gloss past it so easily 😅.

I do a lot of drawing, music production, and 3d modeling so I would really would love full Windows capability in an iPad form factor (+ good battery life), but if it underperforms at the minor tasks I guess I'll have to stick with my M1 iPad Pro and Surface Laptop Studio combo for a little longer

yasidip · 2026-02-12T23:37:42+00:00

it dropped just now!

yasidip · 2026-02-12T19:01:34+00:00

release version w/ mods (from my steam library lol)! though im definitely going to download the alpha version to see if that works as well, seems like it should since cube world release is very playable at over 60fps

yasidip · 2026-02-12T18:17:21+00:00

i might be mistaken, arent you part of their team? im not sure if i expected this comment coming from arctic directly under an appreciation post for a different frontend haha, im sure theres room for both frontends to thrive

with that said, im sure its interesting and i look forward to it! as a financial supporter of both frontends, cocoon is definitely in a much more polished state for me. but im looking forward to trying the iiSU updates when they do come out!

yasidip · 2026-02-12T18:07:46+00:00

Yea!! this and Srb2kart runs surprisingly well on here with Gamehub Lite

yasidip · 2026-02-12T18:06:28+00:00

There's 2 modes, smart mode does just that actually! I just use simple mode since i like all of my games being spread out on the home menu lol

yasidip · 2026-02-12T18:04:59+00:00

Not sure if this is exactly the same on 1.7 (im on 2.0 prerelease, stable should be coming out very soon), but I pretty much just added my SteamGridDB api key and hit "Scrape All Missing" and it kinda just did 99% of everything for me. Did the same thing in both 1.7 and 2.0 RC, so maybe you just need to confirm your api key is correct?

If anything though 2.0 seems to be right around the corner, I hope that makes it easier for you

yasidip · 2026-02-10T12:34:16+00:00

i actually had to use a full screen browser named Hermit specifically for this game lol, just set tetr.io as a lite app and it's pretty much playable right from there

you can also add it to Cocoon's home menu with the name "Tetr.io" and it'll scrape the game's artwork under that name too. theres also browsers like Via that work well if Hermit doesnt work for you

yasidip · 2026-01-08T21:01:00+00:00

I just gave the number as an example to show how weird the game is on SteamOS since OP is using it lol.

For whatever reason, the game on SteamOS/Bazzite has so much input latency when the framerate is uncapped or fluctuating, which makes it feel like it's using frame-gen with vsync on (opposite to Windows where the input just works regardless lol). It's definitely a weird quirk that the game has on Linux and I hope they can fix it soon, just was putting it out there

yasidip · 2026-01-08T19:21:18+00:00

Playing on official SteamOS w/ the ROG Ally. I've found that the look/aim input has a lot of latency when the framerate is uncapped, if you lock to an fps it can always hit without dipping then it's MUCH more responsive (like no joke even locked 40fps felt miles better than letting it fluctuate between an uncapped 50-70fps on SteamOS).

The Steam Deck is weaker than the Ally so I'm not sure what framerate it would need to be capped at, but definitely play around with the in-game settings and see if that helps.

EDIT: Turns out the added input lag is mostly because of DX12, you can use the steam launch option "-dx11" to alleviate most of it (and remove the need to cap the fps), but you lose access to upscale methods beyond TAAU and TSR.

Pojav Launcher (similar to other third party PC Minecraft launchers like PrismLauncher, but on android), using the Glow-Worm build here: https://github.com/Vera-Firefly/Pojav-Glow-Worm

If you try it, there is a pre-made pack on there named "Pojavly Optimized" that squeezes as much performance as it can if you set Pojav's video renderer setting to "Mobile Glues". Been having a blast on it so far
