Core Viewpoint - SteamOS has opened installation support for more gaming handhelds, allowing users to replace Windows 11 with a more optimized gaming experience [1][2]. Group 1: SteamOS Development - Initially, SteamOS only supported Steam Deck, while other gaming handhelds from brands like Lenovo and ASUS ran on Windows 11, which is less effective for gaming [2]. - The latest SteamOS 3.7.8 is based on an updated Arch Linux, featuring Linux Kernel 6.11 and Plasma 6.2.5 for desktop mode [2]. - Valve provides recovery images and setup guides for users, with current support limited to AMD hardware and NVMe SSDs [2]. Group 2: Future Prospects and Features - There is a high probability that SteamOS will support additional hardware in the future, potentially including non-AMD devices, due to its Linux foundation [3]. - New features in SteamOS 3.7.8 include battery charge limit settings, frame rate limiting for VRR displays, and the ability for Bluetooth controllers to wake the device from sleep [3]. - Lenovo plans to release the Legion Go S with pre-installed SteamOS in the coming weeks, priced lower than the Windows 11 version, attracting potential buyers to consider third-party handhelds running SteamOS [3].
