The Return of the Frame Pointers
I think I might have confused two unrelated posts. The one that references Polar Signals is this one:
https://gitlab.com/freedesktop-sdk/freedesktop-sdk/-/issues/...
So not a perf issue there, but they don't think the workflow is suitable for whole-system profiling. Perf issues were in the context of `perf` using DWARF:

- Finally mesa version 23.1.1 for fedora 38 has been published for testing 11 hours ago. It comes with quite important features like vulkan gpl for RADV to fight stutters in games and for better performance.

Yocto
But the fd-sdk https://gitlab.com/freedesktop-sdk/freedesktop-sdk and gnome build meta https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-build-meta projects can prove as good references.

Rant: Desktop Sandboxing
With all of these hypothetical features out of the way and looking just at current release software, Flatpak allows you to do so much stuff that isn't accessible for a not-so-techy user. Custom installation folder? Yep. Running mesa-git GPU drivers? You got it. Any way to easily do this via GUI? In typical Linux fashion, nope. For a GUI focused packaging format this is a big letdown.
- Issue found for: Steam Deck Issue With Flatpak Hardware Decoding
- Steam Flatpak. Tried RADV_PERFTEST=gpl with proton-ge-54 but doesnt seem to be working when compared to using it with Bottles. Please see if I did it right.

Is there any way to force a specific Mesa driver for applications when multiple Mesa driver versions have been installed?

Fedora Workstation 38 Is Shaping Up To Be Another Fantastic Release
You can load up Mesa GIT using environment variables, see here. Honestly what I miss the most from flatpak Steam is properly working non-Steam shortcuts, but I've given up on that.
- Are all AMD GPUs equally well supported?

PSA: The new OBS update breaks VA-API encoding when used with the Flatpak
It was my understanding that the packages for vaapi are just put into the -extra version of the sdk so app maintainers can opt out, but they are still available if they want to use them. See https://gitlab.com/freedesktop-sdk/freedesktop-sdk/-/merge_requests/10616

- OLED slower FPS as LCD Deck with Skyrim both on 3.5.7

Is it known what causes the crashes in 3.5.x?
Create a support ticket and reference this GitHub thread. https://github.com/ValveSoftware/SteamOS/issues/1257 it doesn’t effect everyone but it does effect multiple users

Crashing
It happened to me too a few times, mostly with hogwart’s legacy. Maybe it is software related though according to this https://github.com/ValveSoftware/SteamOS/issues/1257, so I have hope to not RMA my deck

Do all OLED Steam Decks have the 3.5mm audio issue?
Edit: Valve should be aware of this issue by now: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/SteamOS/issues/1235

SteamDeck OLED Wifi Issues
This is a known issue with the WiFi cards in the OLED. It looks like the chip itself has poor Linux driver support. See here.

Disable bad audio device and reset crackling sound
Another issue I saw in 3.5 and before was crackling sound (in some games), after sleep/resume. I saw this in Elden Ring and couple of other games. Looks like resetting pipewire program seems to fix this issue. You may have to add a terminal program to steam, switch to "Nested Desktop" or use decky plugin to execute following bash commands.

Valve closed bug report of 200/1040 mhz GPU clock bug in 3.5.5-3.5.7 stable WITHOUT fixing it.
From the thread on github with bug report you can see two things:
- Others experiencing issues with 3.5 preview BIOS (F7A0116) breaking suspend/wake?
-
