Valve have released SteamOS 3.7.0 Preview, which they noted has the beginnings of support for non-Steam Deck handhelds! So we're closing in on the previously announced Beta for more handhelds. Although this release is still just for Steam Deck.
Out of interest (I asked someone else the same question) how is the support for Nvidia drivers? Other than my handhelds all my systems are team green and it’s what has always deterred me from switching to Linux on them as from what I gather support is flaky on most distros.
It’s been rock solid for me, Bazite comes with Nvidia drivers (it has different images for old and new cards), so no fiddling with installing drivers in top of the system (like e. g. in Kinoite) that break during major version updates (e. g. Fedora 40 t0 40). I think I’ve installed it in four different systems (all Nvidia GPUs and either Intel or Amd CPUs) and it worked flawlessly every time.

Sorry, can’t say. I’m all AMD.
