I’m absolutely loving my X20! Between the larger screen compared to the Xbox Ally X, the OLED display, and HDR support, I’m really happy I picked it up. It also just feels better to hold than the Legion Go 2!

We’ve already ironed out most of the major kinks, but there are still a few smaller issues we could use your help tracking down. If you’re interested in pitching in, **Ally X20 support is now available on our testing branch!**

## What’s Going Well?

- **Display:** Full support, including VRR and HDR
- **TDP Control:** Working, though custom TDP still needs some investigation
- **Back Buttons:** Fully mappable
- **Sleep/Wake:** Working well in our testing
  - It’s difficult to cover every sleep/wake edge case, so please capture logs if you encounter any issues.

## What Still Needs Work?

- **RGB Lighting**
  - Support is expected with upcoming drivers from the OGC.

- **Fan Control**
  - Like our other devices, fan control will eventually be handled through OGUI plugins.
  - In the meantime, Decky plugins such as [Panel de Control](https://github.com/Hooandee/panel-de-control) may offer a workaround.

## Acer Predator Atlas 8 Enablement Begins

After some hard work by some of our maintainers and friends at the OGC the ACER Predator is receiving some of its first commits.

- Initial button mapping is available allowing it to he used for games.
- Hold the Guide (top left button next to the screen) to access the left side menu.
- QAM/Predator (top right button next to the screen) tap functionality had been added so you can access the right side menu.
- Holding QAM will open the OpenGamepadUI overlay once it is enabled for this device
- Drivers will be needed upstream to enable tap functionality, and that work is already underway.
- M1 and M2 does not work yet
- Gyroscope does not work in linux

## How to Jump In

### 1. Pin Your Current Working Deployment

Before rebasing to testing, we strongly recommend pinning your current deployment:

```auto
sudo ostree admin pin 0

```

This preserves your working deployment and gives you a reliable fallback if something goes wrong.

If you later return to Bazzite’s stable channel and want to remove the pin, first identify the deployment index:

```auto
rpm-ostree status -v

```

Then unpin the appropriate deployment:

```auto
sudo ostree admin pin --unpin <deployment-number>

```

**Note:** Pinning preserves a deployment, but doesn’t automatically switch you back to it. Keep your fallback pinned until you’ve confirmed your new deployment works correctly.

### 2. Rebase to Testing or Unstable

You can switch channels through the Bazzite Portal app or use the terminal:

**Testing:**

```auto
brh rebase testing

```

**Unstable:**

```auto
brh rebase unstable

```

### 3. Help Us Keep Testing Organized

GitHub is our source of truth for tracking and resolving issues. To make sure reports are actionable and don’t get lost:

- Threads in [testing-help](https://discord.com/channels/1072614816579063828/1559596156399656960) **must have an associated GitHub issue**.
- Capture logs using `ujust logs-this-boot` and attach them to your GitHub issue.
- Include relevant information such as your Bazzite image, hardware specifications, steps to reproduce, and `rpm-ostree status -v` output.
- Threads without an associated GitHub issue **will be removed** to keep the forum organized.
- If you’re unable to create an issue yourself, don’t worry! We’ll work with you to get one filed.

**The more hardware and real-world scenarios we can validate, the better Bazzite gets for everyone.** Your testing helps us catch issues we might never encounter on our own hardware.

Thanks to everyone who’s helping us make this release better!
