The Steam Deck Client Beta has been updated with the following changes:
General
- Steam developers can now select which Steam for Linux runtime to use for native titles. Please consult the partner site for more details.
- Native titles will execute in ‘Steam for Linux runtime 1.0 (scout)’ by default, instead of the legacy runtime environment.
This behavior is consistent with Steam Deck and promotes better compatibility across all Linux desktop distributions.
Note that this new feature can be turned off globally with “-compat-force-slr off” on the Steam client command line.
Steam Input
- Always show the controller tab in app properties for non-Steam shortcuts
- Added Invert X and Invert Y to Mouse Regions
- Scroll Wheel mode can now be chosen from the dropdown in SIAPI games (Inside of Edit Loadout, not Quick Settings)
