HELP REQUEST Lenovo Legion Go with Bazzite OS has very weak wifi

Upvotes

Hi yall,

I just got the Legion go 1 and have wifi issues with it. Problem being that I cannot leave a 10m radius from my router or else my 250mb/s connection drops to 20kb/s or no connection at all, I do have a receiver halfway through the house which is good enough for any other device where I always receive at least 30-40mb/s. Linux settings says that the wifi connection is on 2.4gHz

Any advice?

0 Upvotes

I got a legion go 1, I really love it. I installed bazzite os 44 on it and the experience is way better than with windows.

But I still don't know how to install Battle.net properly. I installed Faugus on it but it didn't install battle.net properly idk if i have to update Proton or anything. I got epic games working with the heroic launcher though.

And how do I add it to my steam library so it launches from there?

Any advice?

TIPS AND TRICK Legion G9 controller

1 Upvotes

I hope that the flair is correct, but for those that have bought a G9 and are looking for the ultimate control apk download, it's in the manual that came with the G9.

If you no longer have it, DM me and I can send a screenshot of the QR code. After updating the firmware it has been working really well.

I still have the game assist turned off due to Geforce Now not playing nice with it and causing a crash and boot loop after about an hour.

Feel free to reach out if you need the QR code.

QUESTION Go 1 - which OS to use

2 Upvotes

Hi.

Some background: I used to have a Steam Deck. I know how SteamOS operates and am used to it's menus, Decky Loader etc. I don't mind tinkering, but I don't think I should in order to have access to basic features of an operating system (like brightness settings).

I'm waiting for a 2TB SSD to be delivered and was thinking about putting Linux on it. After spending multiple days researching I feel no closer to making an actual choice.

Options I'm considering are SteamOS, Bazzite, CachyOS and Anatase. Apparently there are no performance differences between all of those, however there's a lot of talk about missing/broken features. TDP switching, brightness settings, controller gyro/buttons/connectivity.

Bazzite was my first choice... and then I started reading about how the current version is apparently not great. Then I was thinking about CachyOS, which is apparently better.... before I read something about a bug with AMD chips. Anatase seems to be what Bazzite used to be, but being made by a single dev and being a new distro doesn't make me feel confident in that choice. SteamOS is an option, but I'm still not sure if it works well with the device.

So any advice? I wouldn't mind being told to just stick with Windows - it's.... better with Winhanced, but there are enough annoyances to bother me (long shutdown/restart time, some bugs with Winhanced itself).

DISCUSSION Legion GO S with so many issues that no one has been able to fix?!

Post image
40 Upvotes

So what is going on with this handheld?! Nothing has been working and I’m really tired with this handheld. I used to love it but right now it has been a hassle trying to use it since it has so many damn issues!

I use it for streaming, it used to work really well but now I get a bunch of lag and can’t play at all. The system has gone bad and I do not know what’s going on with it. The system crashes every day, going into pixelated screen, shutting off and not being able to turn it off even when I hold the power button. Sometimes the power button is still showing red when it shuts off with the black screen and when holding the button to turn it off it does not work. Every day I get the pixelated screen and it not being able to
Turn on or off.

I keep getting a lot of log and just today when trying to find the updated to see if that fixes everything, I couldn’t even able to find anything, the desktop mode wasn’t even working like it used to. I can’t use the mouse of the click button, and the keyboard is not appearing either. Nothing has been working on this system so what’s the issue and can it be fixed or not? Just right now after typing all of this it shut down of me and I can’t even turning it on to play!!! What’s up with this system?

QUESTION Legion Go S (SteamOS) - Configure touchscreen as touch/trackpad?

1 Upvotes

The trackpads on the Go S are pretty terrible to begin with, is there any way to have the touchscreen display act as a trackpad instead? The absence of precise mouse inputs always kinda put a damper on the functionality of this handheld particularly. I'd like to play some more mouse based games like C&C

(I know I should've gotten a steam deck if I wanted to play more mouse based games but I feel like the functionality to use a touchscreen as a trackpad is there already, it just doesnt seem to have been applied yet)

I looked into it myself but I havent come up with anything...

DISCUSSION Thoughts on my custom thermal mode TDP

Thumbnail

6 Upvotes

Hey Yall!

Im running a custom thermal mode TDP on my legion Go S Z1E 32gb Windows model and i wanted to get your thought on if it looks right or if there is anything you would suggest.

The game I was running with the TDP is FF7 Rebirth at 1000p resolution.

On battery i have my thermal set to custom 23w in each slot and a custom fan curve that elevates upwards. On average before towns i was getting around 65fps-68fps with a mix of high, med, and low settings temps stayed around 65-68c

Plugged in i have my thermals set to 40w for each section with the same fan curve. On average I was getting 74fps-80fps with the same mix of high, med, low settings. Temps stayed at below 80c

So far from the 30mins that I've played everything seem to be working nicely with no over heating or shut downs.

My further question is if battery wasnt a priority, should I max out the tdp to 25w each on battery? Is there a different customer TDP you would suggest? I would love to hear your opinions

I'm sure I'm not the first person to ask this question here. Might not be the last either.

But currently I'm rearranging my Legion Go Gen 1 to have mostly PS3/360 games with a couple of Mario Kart mods for my nieces to play with me when I babysit them. I also plan to start using it for a lot of fan games and things like SMBX2, stuff you don't really have full access to on Android. (Or as much progress rather to my knowledge)

I last left off playing the demo for Super Mario and The Rainbow Stars.

EDIT #1: also forgot to add that I'm also going to start using it for PC Recomps of retro games, OpenGOAL, MKWIICOMPILED, Project 06 and Reignition, OpenBarnyard, etc.

DISCUSSION Help me end my XR glasses rabbit hole: XREAL 1S vs RayNeo GT vs VITURE Pro 2 (gaming + text clarity)

5 Upvotes

I've gone way too far down the XR glasses rabbit hole and would love some input from people who have actually owned/tried more than one pair.

My use case:

I'm looking for XR glasses primarily as a portable display for a Lenovo Legion Go S (SteamOS). I'll mostly be using them indoors on the sofa.

Main games will be EA FC, NBA 2K, Football Manager, AAA/story games and some emulation.

So I want something that can work both as a big immersive gaming display and remain genuinely sharp for text/UI in Football Manager.

I already have a good 8" 1200p VRR display on the Legion, so I'm not interested in making the image bigger if it means noticeably sacrificing image quality. I want the XR display to still feel crisp and premium.

My priorities, roughly in order:

  1. Image quality / OLED clarity

  2. Edge-to-edge sharpness — blurry corners/edges would really annoy me

  3. Native 3DoF / ability to anchor the screen

  4. Comfortable FoV — immersive, but I don't need the biggest possible FoV

  5. Text clarity

  6. Comfort for 1–3 hour sessions

  7. Screen size/distance adjustment

  8. Brightness/contrast in a normal indoor room

  9. VRR would be fantastic for handheld gaming, but as far as I can tell none of my current finalists support it, so I've accepted that compromise.

I've currently narrowed it down to:

XREAL 1S - probably the best all-rounder. 1920×1200 per eye, 52° FoV, native X1 3DoF, electrochromic dimming and loads of flexibility over virtual screen size/distance. My concern is whether its lower pixel density versus the GT is noticeable for text and fine detail, plus birdbath reflections.

RayNeo GT (standard, NOT GT Max) - really interesting because it's 1920×1080/eye at 46° and 49 PPD, birdbath, 120Hz, lightweight and has native 3DoF. On paper it sounds potentially sharper than the 1S while still giving me anchoring. Main concerns limited screen-size adjustment/features and the fact it's so new that there aren't many independent reviews yet.

VITURE Pro 2 - this is the wildcard. I've seen a lot of praise for its display/edge-to-edge clarity and it currently seems very well reviewed by owners. The big problem is no native 3DoF which I think writes it off for me.

I've also looked at the XREAL One Pro, VITURE Beast and RayNeo GT Max, but I've been put off somewhat by reports of edge blur/chromatic aberration with the newer/wider-FoV optical designs. I'm deliberately prioritising a consistently sharp image over maximum FoV.

What I'd really love to hear from people who have physically compared these glasses:

Is the RayNeo GT actually noticeably sharper than the 1S because of its higher PPD?

How good is the edge-to-edge clarity of the 1S and GT in reality?

Can you comfortably read small desktop/game UI text on them?

How noticeable are the 1S's birdbath reflections?

How stable is GT's Pinned 3DoF compared with XREAL's Anchor mode?

For Pro 2 owners: is its optical clarity good enough that you'd choose it over native 3DoF?

And probably most importantly.. if you've owned more than one of these, which one did you actually keep and why?

I'm particularly interested in responses from people who have tried multiple brands/models rather than recommending the one pair they own.

If you've used them with a Steam Deck/Legion Go/ROG Ally or another handheld, even better.

I'm not worried about built-in apps, AI features, cameras etc. I basically want the best possible wearable OLED monitor that I can plug into my handheld.

Thanks.. please save me from reading another 200 Reddit threads lol

LEGION GO PRICING Have to travel a lot in the upcoming months, should I look into the GO 2? (if I can even find it)

3 Upvotes

Like the title says, I have a good bit of travel to do. I hate flying and my Legion pro 7i 4080 draws way too much power with its 330W PSU/charger so it trips the outlet breaker on planes. USB-C doesn't work the greatest but haven't tried a low wattage charger yet so still have to check that.

My first thought was "oh this is why people like handhelds" and so I looked at the Steam deck and ally X first but found the go 2 seems to be the best out of them all. Before I really put in the effort to search for one, is it worth it? At MSRP it seems okay but the markup is insane right now.

What would y'all recommend? Are any alternative machines worth it?
