Valve don't exactly like to give out sales numbers, so we often have to make educated guesses but sometimes with huge hits like Black Myth: Wukong, it gives us an slightly clearer idea on how the Steam Deck is actually selling.
Sounds like most of that would be handled by the kernel with non-Deck-specific modules - it won’t forget to notify the userspace that a device has disappeared just because it was in sleep mode at the time it was physically disconnected.
The only problems I ever had with sleep on Linux were all inability to wake up some part of the motherboard or the GPU because of crappy firmware, never with connecting/disconnecting external stuff.
While I would love that, I really can’t imagine valve being able to handle the logistics and driver support that would come with that endeavor.
The deck still has a lot of bugs, such as touch scrolling being broken if you try to scroll down in your library a few pages.
I can’t imagine valve handling “user has put the console in sleep mode, detached the console from the egpu dock, and woken it from sleep” without bugs
