Shit, just linux.

Use this community for anything related to linux for now, if it gets too huge maybe there will be some sort of meme/gaming/shitpost spinoff. Currently though… go nuts

I think they were fixing it already just not in the upstream kernel? As I've had audio just fine on my oled the whole time

Broken in the upstream kernel, yes. The Valve-built kernel for SteamOS has a bunch of downstream patches.

that was my thought. many less hurdles to getting it into their product. I imagine they have wanted to get it in the main kernel but just took a bit to get it vetted and passed.
