CTOnews.com, August 24 (Xinhua)-- the performance of the Steam Deck handset has become obsolete, but many players still choose to buy the handset in pursuit of a native SteamOS experience. "SteamOS simplifies the process of playing PC games on handheld devices," and players can often benefit from some of the small features provided by SteamOS when playing games with Steam Deck.

Recently, a Linux release called Bazzite has emerged, and it recently released its first official version (1.0). The Linux-based system officially claims to include all the features of SteamOS, as well as "some important additions."

▲ source foreign media TechSpot is reported that Bazzite is based on Fedora 38 as well as the mainline version of uBlue and the "Nvidia version", which aims to "completely copy the interface and game optimization of Steam Deck". It is reported that any game handheld after installing the release version, the boot will automatically start into Steam large screen mode, players can also use the Arch Linux compatibility layer, thus using Proton to run Windows games.

CTOnews.com also found that because Bazzite retains the GRUB feature of Fedora, third-party handsets that install the distribution can still choose to start Windows at boot time, but not to other Linux distributions.

Foreign media TechSpot recommends that players who use game handsets such as Asustek ROG Ally can try Bazzite to get a desktop environment experience similar to Steam Deck. After getting started, foreign media found that Bazzite is also pre-installed with Nvidia proprietary drivers, complete ROCm OpenCL / HIP runtime support, and compatible with wireless Xbox handles, as well as DisplayLink support, input remapping, Distrobox, custom update system, rollback and other features.

Although the installation process of Bazzite is somewhat complicated, the system requirements of this distribution are relatively low, and 2 GHz quad-core CPU, 4 GB memory, 20 GB storage space, and modern dedicated GPU supporting Vulkan 1.3 are sufficient.
