Quick reminder on the likely reason why Valve's New Steam Machine only supports #HDMI 2.0:

""At this time an open source HDMI 2.1 implementation is not possible without running afoul of the HDMI Forum requirements.""

This is what Alex Deucher, the maintainer of the amdgpu #kernel driver, said one and a half years ago here:

https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/amd/-/issues/1417#note_2303163

And from the ticket it looks like the problem remains.

""HDMI 2.1 is not available on #Linux due to the HDMI Forum.""

The way that Valve could make a fortune off of me if they brought out the Steam Machine in pink. 🎀

Valve reveal the new Steam Frame, Steam Controller and Steam Machine with SteamOS https://www.gamingonlinux.com/2025/11/valve-reveal-the-new-steam-frame-steam-controller-and-steam-machine-with-steamos/

#SteamOS #SteamFrame #SteamMachine #SteamController

Anyone have an idea whether the #SteamMachine + #SteamFrame could run Beat Saber? I saw a Reddit thread where someone got it working on a #SteamDeck, so I’m hopeful.

I want a living room PC to play co-op games with Jess and this thing might be a perfect fit. Beat Saber is a must-have though. #Steam

@peejay The most ugly hardware in decades.

But I guess if you are wearing the Steam Frame then you can't see all the other stuff.

Hell yeah! I want everything! That sounds so great! 😱😱😱
