Ivalufa yasungulwa Umphunga 3.7.8 eneempawu ezininzi ezintsha, kuquka inguqulelo entsha yePlasma, 6.2.5, kunye ne umda womthwalo Ukwandisa ubomi bebhetri yeSteam Deck. Ithiyori yebhetri ithi oku: ukugcina ubomi obude, kufuneka uyigcine phakathi kwe-20% kunye ne-80%, kodwa ngaphezu kwakho konke, kufuneka ugweme ukuyishiya ikhutshwe okanye ifakwe kwaye itshaje ixesha elide. Yiyo loo nto uphawu olunje lubalulekile.
I-Steam Deck yikhompyuter ephathwayo enokuthi isetyenziswe ukudlala imidlalo, kunye nezinye izinto singayisebenzisa iqhagamshelwe kwidokhi. Umzekelo, ndiyisebenzisa eqhagamshelwe kwiTV xa umdlalo ungafuni ngokuchanekileyo, kuba umlawuli wam weqela lesithathu mbi kakhulu. Kwimeko yam, ichitha phantse lonke ixesha edibeneyo, kwaye nkqu ukufika Ukusukela kwi-SteamOS 3.7.8, bendidla ngokuyikhulula ngamanye amaxesha ukuyivumela ukuba yenze imijikelo epheleleyo. Ayisafuneki, kwaye ayisekho nakwiWindows.
Umda wokulayisha usetyenziswa kwi-firmware ye-BIOS.
Kukho ubuncinane iindlela ezimbini zokusebenzisa umda wokulayisha: kwinqanaba lenkqubo yokusebenza kunye nenqanaba le-firmware. Eyangaphambili ayenzi ngqiqo ingako, ngakumbi kwi-Steam Deck esebenzisa ubuncinci idesktop kunye neendlela zomdlalo. Eyona ndlela iqhelekileyo yokuyisebenzisa kukusebenzisa ezi ndlela zilandelayo: kwinqanaba le-firmware ye-BIOS, kwaye into eyenzayo "kukuxelela" apha ukuba i-100% intlawulo ngokwenene yi-80%.
Nangona ingenakulungiswa kwi-BIOS ngokwayo, umda usetyenziswa apho, ngoko iya kusebenza kuyo nayiphi na inkqubo esebenzisa idekhi. Kwimeko yam, iSteamOS kwimowudi yomdlalo, kwimowudi yedesktop, Windows, kunye neBatocera. Ngoko ke, ukusebenzisa olu seto kuya kukhusela ibhetri kungakhathaliseki inkqubo esiyisebenzisayo, ngoko ke sinokulibala ngokuyitshaja kakhulu.
