Additional Information¶
This applies to most handhelds running Bazzite.
TDP Controls¶
There are a few options for TDP Controls that work with Bazzite:
- The HHD-overlay supports TDP controls.
- Also has a desktop app that is pre-installed, look for the Handheld Daemon app in Desktop Mode.
- SimpleDeckyTDP supports TDP, GPU, Power Governor, and among other settings.
- Also has a graphical application, but needs to be manually installed.
How do I open the HHD Overlay?¶
Hold or double-tap the Quick Access Menu button.
Example: Legion R for the Lenovo Legion Go.
Controller Information¶
For most handheld hardware, besides the Steam Deck, emulation of a DualSense controller is used for full functionality. Double tap or hold the side menu button to access settings for controller emulation including switching to an Xbox controller with reduced functionality.
If your device has paddles, you will want to use the DualSense Edge controller. It’s disabled by default because some games do not map it correctly.
Some games and emulators may need Steam Input disabled to work correctly with your controls.
Desktop Controls¶
Desktop Mode Controller Layout: It may not exist by default if Steam doesn't setup your handheld controller properly. This can be fixed in Steam's controller settings.
Make sure to apply the desktop controls when you select them.
Force reboot device to prevent drive corruption if Steam crashes¶
Note: This is only for the ASUS ROG Ally and Lenovo Legion Go.
Hold down the "select" button on your device to force a reboot. This feature can be disabled in the overlay settings.
