Steam Deck
Plugins and Utilities
Pause Games
Pause Games gives you the ability to suspend the game, or you can configure it to suspend it when switching between games.
CryoUtilities
CryoUtilities has some tuning options mostly for memory. I use it to tune the swap file size to 32GB to help with suspending games.
Nested Desktop
Nested Desktop looks like an interesting feature. I haven't fully tested it yet.
SSH Server
- Set a password for the
deck
user:passwd
- Enable
sshd
:sudo systemctl enable sshd --now
ProtonUp-QT
Some games would are more compatible with GE-Proton. To install and manage proton-ge versions and add the option to the steam client, I use ProtonUp-Qt.
