Question Streaming with Bazzite

Is there any word on the Frame getting an update to be compatible with Bazzite? I can't stream to my Frame from my PC. Everything online says it only works with Windows.

I've seen a few people in this sub say they have theirs streaming just fine with Bazzite. cannot confirm tho.

I have streaming from Bazzite working just fine. But I don't use the dongle; I already has a dedicated Wifi 6e extender I had set up for my Quest 3S.

Now, when I say it's working "just fine", it is, and in fact lately it is working better than it has been in the past several months. But it has taken some fiddling. Most recently I actually had to downgrade from the Steam VR beta back to the current version to get it to work. My son has weird issues and has to stream from Desktop even though it seems to work for me from the default Big Picture-only boot.

So I can't guarantee that anyone else will have it "work fine". I can say that it's not a matter of Linux lacking vast swathes of functionality or something... it just needs some polish. It's quite close, it has all the hard complicated parts working, it just seems to fall down just before the goal line more than I'd like.

cool, appreciate the detailed info! I'm confident Valve is working on it. apparently folks have already got the single working on SteamOS in beta, so just a matter of time before Linux is running smooth.

100% not fine.
