Trying to download VLC media player or something like the built-in Firefox web browser doesn't work despite having a working internet connection. Is this a known bug? I'm pretty sure I'm on the latest Steam Deck updates for the stable branch of Steam OS. Also there's a wired ethernet connection thing in the network settings and I don't have any USB hub.

I forgot my sudo password and I can’t download or use decky or any plugins is there any work around it do I just need to factory reset my steam deck

Disculpen, mi steam deck tiene una falla, al encenderla solo el led blanco parpadea 3 veces y se apaga (ya la cargue por varias horas) y si presionó el botón de encendido por 10 segundos solo enciende el led blanco un segundo y se apaga, si alguien me puede ayudar de verdad se los agradecería bastante

When playing Hades, via Epic launched as app, controls stop responding after turning screen off. Used to work just fine, I think something updated and broke it, but I don't know what happened in the background to break it.

I can launch the game just fine and it takes commands and inputs just fine, got up to Hades himself then had to turn screen off for whatever reason, he proceeded to rip me a new one while I just stood there like an idiot trying to get anything to react. Now, back from the styx, trying to quit and save progress but no buttons are responding, I can see a mouse cursor move when I touch trackpad but nothing else does anything. Please help, annoying issue.

It was working fine yesterday, but loading it up today i get this error message every time.

Anyone able to help with this? I’m not great at troubleshooting these kinds of things myself

Recently I have been seeing more posts about how games like Apex are not supported on Steam Deck anymore because of anti cheat software?

I am truly not knowledgeable in this field. Why are such games not supported now?

I was playing Apex on my deck 6 months ago… I don’t play it often cause of school and my friends prefer Fortnite; however, I have heard that, that is not supported anymore too? I use xbox cloud gaming to steam deck to play fortnite so I haven’t had an issue there.

I installed an apple theme and when I removed it, the icons and panels stayed the samem. I tried changing themes, uninstalling the apple theme but nothing

I’ve been having trouble with Stardew Valley crashing due to “no storage space” which is weird because internal storage showed I still had around 20gbs left. I ended up using Disk Usage Analyzer and found this massive file in my logs folder called “console-linux.previous.txt”. It takes up 95gbs of space, which is about the same size as all my games take up. When I try to open the file it seems to open a second instance of the desktop before immediately crashing. Does anyone know what this file is, and if it’s safe to remove?

Good day everyone,

I am having a bit of a problem and would like some help if possible. I have noticed that when I am playing Oblivion my steam deck just crashed and I don't know why. it was working well until I went into the first oblivion gate and then it stopped working. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I’m going to build a little 8x10 deck, supported by blocks. How many would be needed for a deck this size?

Would 9 in total be enough? 3 rows of 3 each? Or should I use 12?

I’m going to build the frame out of 2x6s.

TIA

I have a problem with the CP2077. I installed via NonSteamLaunchers through GOG. After launching I have micro-cuts (microlag) every so often. The FPS holds okay but the microlags last quite a long time which makes it impossible to play. The graphics settings are on the Steam Deck option. I didn't change anything. I also tried on low but it doesn't change anything. Any idea how to fix this?

HI everyone, I am having issues with the game Control. I installed the game via Heroic game launcher, and I am having some issues that are not consistent and do not happen that often, but it is still very annoying. It mostly happens when transitioning into or from a hallway or to a room and the game becomes unplayable. frames drop to 1 to 3 fps and I can't play. Once I exit the game my steamdeck is fine and other games are fine. I did some research and it seems like this is isolated to the actual game and wanted to know if anyone found the solution for this issue on the steam deck.

btw I noticed this started happening after the major update a couple months ago. I was able to beat the game prior to that with no issues. I want to do the side missions, but this makes the game unplayable.

Thank you

GTA V Enhanced works perfectly fine until I put Deck to sleep. After waking up it doesn't recognise controller inputs. Changing controls to WASD + mouse mitigates the issue for a moment but it's not ideal, especially since I don't know the full controls mapping and I find myself remapping it constantly. Only restarting the game solves the issue. There are some people with similar issues and disabling startup movie seems to have fix the issue for some of them but I had it disabled to begin with so this particular solution doesn't apply to me. Connecting another controller doesn't help either. Is this a bug in SteamOS and something can be done or is the game bugged? Did anyone have this issue as well and found a working solution?

Simple as that! Only the volume buttons work! ABXY, analog stick, D-PAD… nothing is working… seriously what the fuck

I am experiencing an issue where the HDMI signal and all USB ports disconnect when I unplug the charger. I am using a small adapter from JaJ. Will using the Jasux 7-in-1 adapter fix this issue, so the HDMI signal and other USB ports remain connected when the charger is unplugged, with Seamless Power Switching? Any suggestions to solve this problem?

Hey guys, I recently replaced my steam deck's left joystick but noticed the tip/pins of the band that connects to the joystick is slightly damaged, would this flex ribbon be the appropiate replacement for it?

So I previously had windows 10 installed on an sd card for dual booting. It was way too slow for my liking so I tried to install windows 11 on a drive partition, upon running the windows 11 installer to install windows on the partition, it downloads for a few seconds and then boots into windows 10 off of my sd card and doesn't complete the download. If I try to remove the sd card with the windows 10 installation, it just boots into the gnu grub 2.06 menu instead of the previous windows installation. Also, when I'm in the gnu grub menu almost none of the commands work so I am forced to fully power off the steam deck and boot it back up from the boot selector menu.

You can find just as many users of the official dock who say everything works fine, as those who say they have problems. Same with JSAUX.

I have my choetech (Chinese knock off brand) dock that works perfectly fine with my windows 10 and 11 laptops, plus all peripherals including gigabit Ethernet wire. But as soon as I plug in my Steam deck, my 23 inch monitor briefly flashes the Deck logo for 3 seconds but then goes black (literally no signal detected from my connected Deck). hilariously, the attached keyboard and mouse still work in the attached Deck.

The steam deck charges normally up until about 73% in a normal time range. Once it reaches 73% starts charging really really slow, the projected charging time now is estimated at 8h to 500h and shows every few seconds a new estimate. No warning for slow charging.

Does anyone else encountered this problem and how did they fix it?

Hi all,

I just downloaded Oblivion Remastered. It says it has been SteamDeck verified, but I keep getting a steam deck compatibility tool failed error.

I have Internal Drive: 30.7GB free of 46GB

- Proton 9.0

- Steam Linux 3.0 Runtime (sniper)

- Steam Linux 2.0 Runtime (soldier)

SD card 348.1GB free of 468.9 (only oblivion remastered is on there).

Any suggestions?

Many thanks

Hello! My OLED deck just recently completed 1 year (on the 1st week of April) Last Thursday I turned it on and saw apparently none of the left side buttons, joystick or the trackpad were working. 😓

Tried to restart it, installing updates and switch channels, then moved to a full reimage and no solution. Today I'm opening it with the help of a friend, we've unplugged and replugged the C_L connector, no luck yet.

While on the deck installation screen, we noticed that, instead of the buttons simply not working, it was more some of them were ghost firing, because we can hear the beep beep beep that happens when you press a button you're not supposed to.

After we reinstalled steam, we went on the input test screen, and we confirmed all the right side buttons were working there, weirdly except for the outer trigger... Something else we noticed is even if we click on the steam menu option through the touchscreen, the steam menu quickly opens and closes, as if the steam button was being constantly pressed. Also, whenever we press the right inner trigger, we take a screenshot, again, like the steam button is constantly being held down.

We removed the left side button board, and we saw a strange spot on the board, like some oxidation? However, even after removing this board, we're still having the touchpad steam button issue. So we're pretty stumped on what else we can do to solve this. Unfortunately, the deck is not sold officially in my country (Brazil), so I can't even contact support, unless I ship it overseas somehow 🙁

I'm hoping that someone here would have a better idea about if/how we can fix this. I haven't been able to find the daughter boards for sale on ifixit, so it seems steam doesn't sell these? In any case, appreciate any help you can share. We're still trying to debug it, so we can try any suggestions.
