SteamOS

A small new SteamOS update was posted today with a few fixes. Borderlands 2 should no longer crash on certain systems, while the trackpad won't lose functionality after sleeping and resuming on the Legion Go. There were also some security updates to some components on the OS. These should be included with the already massive SteamOS 3.8.0 update that will be on its way with tons of improvements, like an updated Kernel and graphics driver.

You can download the updates yourself in the System Settings on the Steam Deck. Make sure your update channel is set to Beta or Preview.

SteamOS 3.8.2 Beta Update Changelog:

  • Fixed a regression that could cause Borderlands 2 to crash on startup on certain systems
  • Fixed trackpad losing functionality after sleep/resume on the Legion Go
  • Security updates to Flatpak, libpng and openssl
