Valve released another two updates recently. The first is SteamOS 3.6.3 Preview for Steam Deck continuing to fix up issues, and a stable Steam Client Update for desktop PCs and Steam Deck.

The latest SteamOS 3.6.3 Preview update dubbed "Third Time's the Charm" changes:

General

  • Fixed an issue with 3.6.2 where the session could crash after using Keyboard/Mouse Steam Input bindings.
  • Worked around a bug where HDR couldn't be selected in Halo Infinite.

Known Issues

  • Frequent session switches can result in the sound driver crashing, needing a system reboot.

And the stable Steam Client Update for all Steam users changes:

General

  • Fixed a bug that could result in non-primary steam library folders to be forgotten.

Big Picture

  • Fixed non-steam games not showing in search results in Big Picture mode.
  • Fixed a 'long_value' error when playing a game that uses certain gyro configuration.

Steam Input

  • Reverted Joystick Deadzone "Raw/None" behavior to "Controller Default"
  • Fixed Radial Menu selection on Release when bound to Joystick.
  • Fixed Controller Settings Joystick Deadzone Preference using minimum value instead of default value.
  • Fixed invisible glyphs in Gyro Button Picker Interface for Sony DualShock.
  • Switch Pro controller: Restored "Capture" button as an available Gyro Activation Button

    Any idea on how the beta is going? I know the 3.5 update took a super long time to go to the stable channel. Hopefully OS updates go faster in the future.

      Yes, I am really hoping the Steam Family changes get pushed to Stable soon. I recently bought my two children and my wife a Deck each and the new family mode works superbly. They're sharing my library happily and it's led to ongoing purchases for them as we get into multiplayer games that need a licence each, and the kids send me purchase requests when they find titles they want to pickup that suit their tastes.
