[ROG Ally X] List of issues

[Revival8697]

• Adaptive brightness does not work (Hardcoded to work with the Steam Deck).
• No TDP/fan/RGB control (Can be somewhat configured with https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/rog-control-center).
• Fingerprint scanner does not work, but no driver so understandable.
• Gyro?
• Frame Limit doesn't work when VRR is enabled.
• VDPAU is not configured (https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Hardware_video_acceleration#Configuring_VDPAU).

Since you have already a bunch of points, feel free to PR them.
Nekoh is currently heavily for his study, and therefore is less maintenance.

For desktop stuff, I'm not familiar with plasma config files but I will look into it.

Seems like a pain actually, it is objective anyway, I will just remove them.

Can you provide the output of vdpauinfo Install it from the repositories if you do not have it installed.

Hey, my device is in for warranty (peak ASUS QC). I don't remember what the error was but I had to manually set VDPAU_DRIVER=radeonsi for it to work.

This usually happens if there are more than one vdpau drivers installed on the system. AFAIK the Ally X should only have one GPU and therefore only need the radeonsi vdpau driver. I'll check with other Ally X users if this is needed. If so then this should be handled by chwd.
