Steam Deck - SteamOS 3.6.0 Preview: Remote-Controlled

So the zram change didn’t make it? I thought it was a great change, but it’s not mentioned here.

Kernel 6.5 is an odd choice as 6.6 is the latest longterm release.

Great that Mesa is up-to-date though.

Does overclocking support for the LCD Deck mean we can increase frequency?

I wonder why that is that zram didn’t make it. Bazzite (and maybe some others) make use of zram, but maybe they feel like their testing doesn’t yet have enough coverage to ship it, and perhaps it will be in 3.6.1 or be added as a late addition to the 3.6.0 build.

They run their patched kernels until the patches made it upstream. They don’t want to port a patchset to new kernels all the time.

But but my dynamic tiling 😭

Edit: nvm, still on Plasma 5.

But what about HFP/HSP? Can I actually use my new earbuds mics with the Deck now?

Enabled support for Bluetooth A2DP and BAP profiles

And it will be for the time being. I don’t expect the move to Plasma 6 to happen before 6.2 or 6.3.

Looking forward to the MicroSD improvements. Had the issue yesterday that my Deck wouldn’t boot with the card inserted (Samsung, not cheap trash). New Plasma LTS update is also appreciated.
