Wild. 5.27 broke it completely for me! (2070 Super)
I upgraded today!
Encountered only one multimonitor issue with one panel migrating to the primary display after logout/restart, but otherwise, smooth sailing.
Wayland session even seems stable on Nvidia again (I have nothing but regrets about that GPU choice I made 4 years ago).
Bah, I read Nobara and assumed gnome. You said KDE right there.
Well, good news: Kwallet has a similar feature, albeit through an extra package: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/KDE_Wallet#Unlock_KDE_Wallet_automatically_on_login
To hazard a guess, this is a gnome keyring asking to be unlocked after login?
Caveat: it has been a few years since I was on gnome.
You can tie it to the login with the gnome keying PAM module.
Podman + distrobox might be the fastest way to get up and running.
These are absolutely reasonable criticisms.
But Mozilla is better that the big G in this respect, and fastly is at least attempting to do something. So for that, I give them kudos. Especially on the heels of the Encrypted Hello announcement.
So, major caveat here: I’m a linux gamer and don’t have windows [subsystem for linux] available to test.
This actually works shockingly well for steam-steam gaming, but I’d call these steps proof-of-concept success versus “finished product”.
I’ll assume if you’re going this deep, you know how desktop mode works and you’re reasonably comfortable with the terminal. Otherwise, don’t follow random guides on the internet, and you understand that you could break things.
Obvious prerequisite: enable sudo by creating a password for the deck user
Enable installing packages via pacman: I borrowed from this guide, but didn’t follow it exactly.
# disable the deck's read-only mode
sudo steamos-readonly disable
# init the pacman keyring
sudo pacman-key --init
# populate the keyring with archlinux
sudo pacman-key --populate archlinux
Install, start, and bind the usbip service on the steamdeck (steps from the “Server” portion of archwiki linked in my original comment above)
# install usbip
sudo pacman -S usbip
# enable/start the usbip daemon
sudo systemctl enable usbip.service
sudo systemctl start usbip.service
# enable the kernel module
sudo modprobe usbip-host
# list the available usb devices
usbip list --local
# bind the Valve usb device (check the output of the above for the right bus id, mine happens to be 3-3)
sudo usbip bind --busid=3-3
Install start and attach to the steamdeck (steps from the “Client” portion of archwiki listed above)
# install usbip
sudo pacman -Sy usbip
# enable the requisite kernel module
sudo modprobe vhci-hcd
# list the remote devices (use your steam desk's ip address, this assumes you're on the same network and have addressed any firewall/configuration issues)
usbip list --remote 192.168.88.207
# attach to it
sudo usbip attach --remote 192.168.88.207 --busid=3-3
Now you can be shocked when it works instantly. Go play a game!
The proprietary software seems like a user-friendly version of USB/IP
I’ve got some extra time today, so I’ll see if the free/built-in version is easy to get working.
This might be controversial, but I don’t think performance between distributions is really worth considering unless you have a very niche hardware requirement.
Features and community really make the difference.
I’m all for building new tools!
You might want to take a hard look at a lot of the ways Homebrew works to find similar problems you’ll need to solve to make this production ready.
Also the subject of Cory Doctorow’s “Down and out in the Magic Kingdom” from 2003.

Ooh, my family’s was a 386 Wang Exec. My mom upgraded to the 384MB 5.25" internal hard drive. Dual 5.25 and 3.5 inch disk drives. So many memories.
