USB Gadget Mode on SD will essentially turn any tablet into a larger screen for your Deck. Looking for Linux power users to help me get it to work.
Even if not, the Deck has this option, you have to enable it in the BIOS. It's called USB Dual-Role Device. I've made a script that shares the Deck's internet over USB, and also a plugin that enables file transfer (but it's still waiting approval to be added to the Decky store).
