We have just shipped an updated Steam Deck Client to the Preview/Beta channel.
Hardware Survey / System Information
Fixed an issue where VRAM on some graphics cards was not reported correctly (-1)
In the case of multiple display adapters, we now select the one with the most VRAM to display and report to Steam
Steam Input
Button Chord Activator's drop down list of available buttons has been replaced with a multi button selector. This means that newer controllers have full access to extra grip buttons that were previously unlisted.
Gyro to Joystick Camera's Minimum Joystick Output now matches Gyro to Joystick Deflection's behavior, which is useful for identifying a game's internal joystick deadzone.
