Hello, I’m not a total Linux noob, but I’m not sure what my plan is for windows 10s shutter, and I’m not going to 11. I have a PC exclusively for games with an nvidia gpu.
My dream setup works something like a headless gaming pc: I keep my tower on my desk with some monitors and mkb, then run Ethernet all over, and I can stream the tower to: my deck, my phone, a steam link, thin client etc. Then I could get a steam link for my driving sim and send it over there, maybe add in a flight sim later with another steam link. Is this possible?
Hurdles:
- can I still run halo/microsoft games easily? Rocket league? I don’t want to reconfigure every game after every patch.
- What distro would be best?
- Can it switch to the right resolution for what I’m streaming to? I have 16:9, 21:9, steam deck and my phone to contend with. When I tried moonlight it always swapped to the plugged in monitor resolution instead.
- Can it output 4K120hz over the Ethernet?
- Good option for steam link devices?
- Can I stream outside the home with Tailscale
I was working overnight support the night crowdstrike shit the bed. Our systems were fine but payments stopped processing. Nobody up the chain from me awake so we had to wait an hour for news stories to roll in before we knew what was happening.
