GPD Win4 -bazzite (lemmy.world)

I haven't used bazzite before but was looking into handhelds for my spouse and was curious if anyone has installed bazzite on a GPD Win 4, I heard some kinks hadn't been worked out with SteamOS on that hardware so I was curious about people's experiences. Or rather is that hardware more than needed? Would she be better off with a unit that comes with SteamOS for cheaper as it runs everything you have thrown at it?

FYI, Bazzite has an image specifically made for GPD handheld PCs, just select it from the download list. I don’t have a GPD device to test it on, but their flavor for ASUS has the ASUS specific utilities installed and already set up, so I imagine the GPD image is the same.

What Asus one do you use? Anything you like about it or would rather see better done?

I have the ROG Strix G614. I can't really say I'm missing anything, because the ROGCC app which replaces Armoury Crate or whatever it's called on Windows covers all the usual stuff, and there was no install procedure because it's already hooked up with the things it needs to work.

In your case, the utility you would be using for GPD is Handheld Daemon.
