Regardless if I'm using Raspbian Lite or OSMC, after I install the steam link app, there is a bug. I started using the steam link app on my Raspberry Pi 3 B+, with an Ethernet hookup. The keyboard worked with the first 2 methods, so I don't really understand what happened.Ĭan someone please help me? I don't even know, how to find the logs, or something to google:) I have tried to replace the 'exec steamlink' to 'exec xterm', to see if the keyboard works with the startx method, but it works.
Performance was OK, SteamController working, mouse/keyboard working in the app, but not working after the streaming starts (so no keyboard/mouse in games or steam overlay, only in the steamlink app, before connecting). This way the only app started on the X11 was the steamlink app. xinitrc and executed the 'startx' command. So I stopped the lightdm, entered 'exec steamlink' in the. Then I decided to run steamlink on X11, but without any window manager, which can steal precius resources from the steamlink. So I installed the raspberrypi-ui-mods group (lots of packages: xorg, lightdm, window manager, etc).Īfter running the steamlink app from the menu (PIXEL menu?), everything was OK, except from some random lagging, so this method was also bad for me.ģ. I saw in a post here that the EGLFS implementation is quite buggy, so I decided to install xorg and try running from there. This happened all the time, so I decided to move on.Ģ.
In the meantime I was able to SSH to the Pi, but it needed a restart because I was unable to kill the unresponsive steamlink app. > Everythin works perfectly, but after a couple of minutes the picture freezes, and the audio disappears.
