Hello again everyone, we’ve got yet another week of updates for you.
- A workaround has been put in place for users experiencing blank screens after the Kernel 7.2/HDMI 2.1 update. A full-fix will be available in Kernel 7.3, but for now the issue should be resolved.
- Huge thanks to everyone who helped test this fix over the last week.
- Numerous Strix-powered devices now have full TDP control enabled!
- This also includes the Framework Desktop and we’ll be expanding to some other HTPCs in the near future.
- TDP control from the desktop returns via a new Applet and Extension on KDE and GNOME respectively!
- Exposes the full set of controls available in Steam Game mode using the same backend.
- These are able to be installed locally for use on any other Linux distro that implements steamos-manager for TDP control, including SteamOS itself. RPM packages for Nobara/otherwise can be found on Terra and we’ll expand this to the OGC Arch repo as well. Sharing is caring!
