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.

  • linux

    Linux kernel source tree

    • https://github.com/torvalds/linux/tree/master/drivers/usb/gadget/udc has a bunch of supported UDCs. The Steam Deck just seem to use the AMD's built-in USB controller (check with lspci), and I doubt it can support it.

  • DeckMTP

    A DeckyLoader plugin for enabling MTP transfer over USB

    • 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).

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
