Okay friends, let’s check who has a Samsung OLED panel, and who has the BOE OLED panel inside his Deck.
Steps to check:
-
Go to Desktop mode
-
Open Konsole
-
Paste the following command into the terminal:
cat /sys/class/drm/card0-eDP-1/edid | hexdump -C
You will get the output like in this screenshot:
The marked number is relevant and means the following:
01: 800x1280 @59.998545 (BOE, LCD)
02: No longer present
03: 800x1280 @90.003892 (Samsung, OLED)
04: 800x1280 @90.061454 (BOE, OLED)
So my results are:
Model: Steam Deck 512GB OLED
Panel: Samsung OLED
What’s yours? Please also don’t forget to post the model, so we can analyze if there’s some correlation.
You tried a factory reset after firmware update?
yeah, seems fully powering off then back on bring it back for a bit but I randomly seem to lost it again while on until I repower. Maybe loose or a firmware issue. Was going to consider switching to beta branch to see if that changes anything. Been reading about other people having intermittent issues with trackpads since 3.5.5 as well.
