Notes

Known Issues

  • Audio and input events may not work consistently with fastboot enabled. It is recommended to turn fastboot off in the BIOS.
  • Hibernate does not function when configured, and freezes the device.
  • Dualsense controllers may not properly pair with bluetooth unless Bluez is downgraded to 5.68 or below.
  • There is a popping sound when the speakers initialize after powering the device on or after they are turned on from from powering down. This can be resolved at the expense of a ~1W additional power draw when the speakers aren't otherwise in use. Writing this in terminal will resolve the popping: sudo steamfork-set-setting audio.powersave.disabled 1
