I don’t think I ever could have predicted any time earlier than the past few years that Valve would be the one to cook Microsoft’s goose. I know this story isn’t about Windows, but this is a bit like finding cougar paw prints outside your cabin in the morning. The trouble hasn’t found you yet but it’s there, and it’s getting close.

Valve fixing Linux issues feels like pawprints.

Same feeling here. What Valve has done honestly leaves me in awe. The Steam Deck is the best device I’ve ever owned, and probably the only one I unreservedly love.

Not really. Microsoft doesn't support GPUs on Windows, the vendor does.

This is a story about a 10 year old GPU that would not be supported on today's AMD drivers either and the AMDGPU driver was never designed for pre-Polaris hardware, which it is.

The bug also does not exhibit itself on normal compliant x86 machines, only Macintels.
